"God! Will you stop being so over protective?! I'm fully capable of taking care of myself, Patrick!" I screamed right in Patrick's face. Tears were stinging the back of my eyes as I stared at the anger and sadness in Patrick's eyes.

This is probably the first serious fight Patrick and I have ever had. We were best friends, and didn't get into trouble with each other at all. But today was different.

A few years ago, I started dating my boyfriend - well ex boyfriend now. I thought our love was so strong, that we'd be together for ever. That was not true at all.

Last week, I came back to mine and Cody's apartment, which we've been renting for only 2 months. Patrick warned me not to live with him, but I was in to deep with Cody. When I came home that day, all the happiness in me was shattered. I walked in to my apartment to see Cody fucking his friend from college on the couch.

Cody noticed me right when I opened the door. His eyes locked with mine as he continued. There was no regret, no shame in his eyes. He didn't care. I ran out of that apartment faster then I ever ran before. Patrick told me he didn't trust him. That there was something about Cody that wasn't right. I should have listened to him, but I didn't want to. I didn't want to believe it.

And here we are now, arguing with each other because of him. Because of how my life suddenly went to shit. This only started because Cody wanted me back, and I didn't know how to respond to him. I had asked Patrick what to do, and all he told me was that he was t going to say anything because I just wouldn't listen, and I had broke at that moment.

I lashed at him because he was so protective over me like a big brother would be. Always up in my business and wanting to know where I'm going and who I'm with. It started to eat at me when ever he was like that.

Patrick looked at me for a moment before starting the argument back up. I can tell I'm going to regret starting this later. There's always that small feeling in me.

"If your fully capable, then why are you here, Y/N?! Huh? If you were fully capable, you wouldn't be in this mess! You would have realized how bad Cody was before you dated him! Before you moved in with him! You were never really that smart, were you?! You can't even see why I'm so protective!" Patrick's eyes widened at what came out of his mouth.

I stared at him shocked, not believing what he just said. He backed away from me, apologizing for what he said. All I did was shake my head and clench my fists, mustering up confidence to push him even farther.

"Why are you so protective, Patrick" I asked him coldly. His eye brows furrowed as he tried to ignore the question. Sighing in frustration, I pushed him even more. "Why, Patrick. Tell me!" I took a step forward every time he stepped back. Every Time I yelled, he'd flinch not wanting to say anything. His back was against the wall when I yelled even louder. " WHY PATRICK!! WHY AREYOU SO GOD DAMN PROTECTIVE OVER ME?!"

Something in Patrick had snapped. He whipped his head up, grabbed my shoulders, and spun me around against the wall.

"BECAUSE I'M IN LOVE WITH YOU, OKAY?!" Patrick yelled as tears were streaming down his face. His movements froze as he realized what he said. I stared at him, not being able to say anything. My cheeks were a dark pink and my mind was buzzing with questions.

"You... you what?" I leaned forward into Patrick, trying to get him to look at me again. His bloodshot eyes met mine as he leaned into me. Our lips connected within seconds. The world around us didn't matter. Everything was drowned out, and all that mattered in this moment was us.

My hands found their way to his head, fingers tangling in his hair. His hands were wrapped around my waist tightly and he lifted me up a few inches off the ground. Patrick was the first to pull away. The smile on his face was unforgettable. You could see the joy in his crinkled eyes. You could tell this was genuine happiness he was experiencing.

"I love you, Y/N. I have ever since we got to know each other better" Patrick confessed, putting me back on the ground gently. I tugged on his flannel shirt, bringing him closer to me.

I forgot all about the fight. I forgot all about what Cody did and what he said. All that mattered to me right in this moment was Patrick. I looked up to meet Patrick's blue-green eyes and leaning in, pecking him on the lips.

"I love you too, Patrick."

A/N: Hello my friends! Sorry if you don't know anyone named Cody, but I, personally, do. No, this didn't happen to me in real life, but it kinda felt like it did, even if we weren't dating. The story of Cody is for another day, though only if you guys are interested.

To give some spoilers, it all happened in the summer of 2014. That summer was literally a roller coaster for me, and it wasn't fun. I'm technically still on it with him too, but I am trying to get off.

Anyway, enough rambling. Thank you my friends so much for reading.Stay tuned for more!~
