Liam's POV: Returning from a long day at the office, Rachel reached out to me to bring Sydney over. Arriving at the coffee shop where Sydney works, I found her shift had just ended. Upon seeing me, she rushed over for a warm hug, which I reciprocated gladly.
Sydney, with a touch of playfulness, quipped, "What took you so long? I thought you had forgotten about me," her expression is a mix of teasing and faux annoyance.
I reassured her, "Don't be dramatic, Sydney. The ranch work keeps me occupied, especially during this season. Oh, and by the way, Rachel mentioned a BBQ party you're invited to today."
After a brief hesitation, Sydney excused herself to freshen up, leaving me to ponder our relationship. Dating for a year now, she proposed first, and I agreed, feeling the subtle pressure of our friends' relationships progressing around us. Sydney's endearing nature and caring demeanor had endeared her to me.
As I waited, a kind gesture from a local patron with an iced Americano exemplified the familiar warmth of this place, where I used to be a regular before work commitments grew.
Sydney returned, her vitality and charm evident, ready to join me for the evening ahead.
After Sydney returned from freshening up, we exchanged a quick kiss before she bid farewell. As she settled into her seat, I promptly started the car, and during the journey back, conversation was minimal as Sydney was engrossed in a phone call with her friends. Our ride concluded in an hour as we arrived at our residence, at which point Sydney enquired about Jimin's expected arrival, to which I confirmed.
Upon arrival, Sydney warmly embraced Rachel as I observed Jimin, who appeared strikingly attractive. I noticed his gaze on us while engaging in conversation with Billy, flashing a smirk before attending the grilling. Strangely, a pang of jealousy overcame me as Sydney conversed with him, a feeling entirely unfamiliar to me despite her previous harmless interactions with others. Perhaps my unease stemmed from his celebrity status.
Feeling unsettled, I excused myself and retreated to my room, seeking solace in my phone. An hour later, a knock at my door went unanswered until it swung open, revealing an unexpected visitor.
In a surprising turn of events, I found myself wrestling with unfamiliar emotions as Sydney engaged in conversation with Jimin. Uncharacteristic feelings of jealousy crept in, a sensation entirely foreign to me until that moment. Despite being accustomed to Sydney's light-hearted banter with friends and colleagues, the presence of Jimin seemed to awaken a new sense of possessiveness within me, possibly exacerbated by his status as a celebrity.
Seeking solace in solitude, I retreated to my room, seeking refuge in the distraction of my phone. Unexpectedly, a knock at the door disturbed my reverie, signaling Jimin's unannounced entrance bearing food and beer. As we shared a moment of companionship, a peculiar urge to feed him by hand overcame me, surprising both him and myself.The serenity of the moment was shattered as Sydney intervened.
