The things I did

Milo Greene

     "Basically, Matt is a gentleman and if I don't marry him, I don't want love at all" Becky says as she finishes talking about her night.

     You look over at Justin who is sitting there with his mouth wide open, processing everything Becky has just told you.

     "Wow, that was a lot. But I am not surprised you feel this way" you say as you still try to digest everything Becky just told you.

     "What do you mean you're not surprised?" Becky says, a little offended.

     "Oh, come on Becky. When you meet someone new, that's all you talk about. You are a bit boy crazy" you say to Becky.

     Becky shows you a face of hurt while she crosses her arms. You hear Justin, who is sitting next to you, laugh as he watches Becky.

     "She's got a point, Becky. You are a bit boy crazy" Justin says agreeing with you.

     "Ugh, whatever. You two are just jealous that you haven't found someone as perfect as Matt" Becky says as she storms into the kitchen to get something to drink.

     You look over at Justin as you say to him "Ouch."

     Becky walks over to the kitchen table where you and Justin are sitting and takes a seat next to you. You break the silence as you mention Lizzie's wedding.

     "So, I'm not sure if Sarah has told you, but apparently Lizzie intends on inviting us to her wedding" you say to Becky as you watch her drink her water.

     As Becky hears the wedding plans, she chokes on her drink, making her cough before she can respond.

     "She what *cough* she plans on *cough* inviting us?" Becky asks through her coughs.

     "Yup. I'm just as surprised as you are. I told Sarah we would go either way to be there for Lizzie."

     Becky gives you a strange look, "You're not mad at her for what happened?"

     "I can't deny that I wasn't upset and angry before, but I'm honestly over it at this point. If this is what Lizzie wants, this is what Lizzie wants. I don't chase, I attract."

     Becky rolls her eyes at your response, "God, you are the biggest Leo I have ever met."

     You giggle at Becky's response because you know it's true. You are your biggest hype-man. But you know if it's meant to be, it's meant to be.

     "And I'm tagging along if (Y/N) gets a plus one" Justin chimes in, excited to be included.

     Becky quickly perks up in her chair at the mention of plus ones. "Do you think I'll get a plus one?! I'm so bringing Matt if I do."

     You laugh at Becky's eagerness, "Whoa, whoa, slow down there. I don't know anything. I just asked Justin ahead of time. Nothing is set in stone. But also, I'm going to LA in 2 weeks to visit Sarah and Holland and to also meet Lizzie's sisters."

     This time, Becky spits up her drink at the mention of you meeting Lizzie's sisters. "YOU'RE MEETING LIZZIE'S SISTERS?!"

     "I KNOW. Trust me, I was freaking out when Sarah told me the twins were asking about me."

Becky's mood drops as she realizes she won't be able to join you on this trip.

"I just realized I don't have that week off from work. You'll have to do this trip without me" Becky says, clearly upset about missing out.

"That's okay, I think Sarah is due for some sisterly bonding time" you say, trying to make Becky feel better.

Becky gives you a smile as she gets up from the table to head to bed.
