"No. It won't be," he begins to rant, "Bea you can't complain because you're in love with Josh-"
"Ryan-"
"But I'm still in love with you."
Oh fuck. Here we go. The awkwardness, the tens- it's not even tension.
"Ryan, I love you as a friend."
"Yeah, but I think we could try again."
"I think, we are better off as friends."
"Are you sure?"
"Yeah, let's take a pic so I can show off my bestie to the world."
"Aww look at the love in your eyes," I push him.
"Oh fuck off."
"How's Josh?"

"Happy to hear that someone's in love."
"Ryan. Stop feeling sorry for yourself, we will find you someone to hook up with."
"No, I only want one person."
"Yeah, I know it's me."
"No, I want Steph"
I look at him-
"And you, of course"
"Wait, Ryan. What if things don't go well with Josh."
