I walked into the AH office and sat at my desk which was squished between Gavin and Michael's. I had been working there a few weeks but I'd known Team Nice Dynamite for much longer. Gav and I had been friends for years and he had introduced me to Michael a few months ago. We instantly clicked, it was liked we were made to get along. Sometimes I feel like we should be more than friends... but I think that is just me. 

I began editing a Let's Play. A couple of the editors were off sick so I said I would help out. I stuck my headphones on and opened up the videos. After a while a tap on my shoulder jolted me, I looked up to see Gavin staring at me concerned. 

"You okay Brit? You've been staring at your computer for twenty minutes." I looked back and my screen and realised I'd been just listening to Michael's content. I looked back and him and nodded.

"Yeah I'm okay, sorry I'm just really tired," I lied quickly. He raised his eyebrows and sat next to me smirking. 

"So it has nothing to do with the fact that you started dreaming when Michael started talking?" he said quietly, trying not to giggle. I rolled my eyes and smushed his face with my hand. 

"Shut up dickwad," I muttered as I continued to edit. He smirked and opened up his computer. A few minutes later Michael bursts into the room holding coffees. He sits down at his desk and passes me one of the coffees. 

"Popcorn latte you weird coffee freak." I smiled and accepted it off of him. 

"Thank you Michael." I smiled took a sip. He smiled back and drunk his. I could see Gavin smiling at me out of the corner of my eye. This continued all day. 

When we went for lunch Michael paid for my food, which caused Gavin to start giggling to himself, so I punched him in the arm... obviously when Michael wasn't looking. By the end of the day I wanted to murder Gavin. I couldn't even talk to Michael without Gavin snickering or pulling faces at me. 

I picked up my bag when Gavin ran up to me happily. 

"Brittney!" he yelled excited.

"Gavin!" I yelled back.

"Bevs tonight yeah? 7pm, at the club downtown," he demanded before plodding off. I stared confused before walking home. 

When I got home I got changed into a lacy crop top and some shorts. I re-did my makeup and straightened my hair. I grabbed my phone and and purse and headed to the bar. 

I waited at the bar for Gavin, I couldn't see him anywhere and he was ignoring all of my texts. I sighed and ordered a beer. After fifteen minutes I grew bored and tried calling him, but of course it went to voicemail. 

"Brit?" I turned around to see Michael standing behind me looking confused. 

"Michael? What are you doing here?" I asked. 

"Gavin wanted to meet for Team Nice Dynamite bevs. You?" 

"Gav wanted to meet for bevs..." I said slowly realizing what Gavin had done. That sneaky bastard.  Michael looked at me confused before chuckling and rubbing the back of his neck.

"Of course he did." I tilted my head in confusion. 

"What do you mean?" 

"I... er... it's nothing... wanna have a drink then?" I sighed and nodded. We had a drink and then we went home. Sadly and unsurprisingly Gavin's had failed.

The next few days were torture. Michael wouldn't talk or even look at me. He'd ignore me in Let's Plays and act like I didn't exist. It was eating away at my brain. What the fuck had I done wrong?

"Let's stop!" Geoff yelled chuckling. I stopped recording and closed down my game. I glanced at Michael, he was staring at his computer screen like no one was around him. I sighed and walked out of the room, I could see everyone staring at me, but I didn't care. I walked into the bathroom and leant my head against the cubicle door as I burst into tears. A quiet knock came from the door causing me to fall silent. 

"Brit? You okay in there?" 

"Piss off Gav." I snapped sniffing. 

"Brit? Why are you crying?" I clenched my fists and opened the door to see Gavin looking worried. "Brit?"

"What the fuck did you do Gavin?" I hissed as tears continued to flow down my face. 

"Wot?"

"Why did you do that to me and Michael? He won't even fucking look at me now! Why couldn't you just leave me to like him from afar? Why get involved? Just fuck off!" I yelled slamming the door in his face. I slid onto the floor and sobbed to myself, unable to think about anything else. Another knock came from the door.
"Gavin fuck off!" I yelled. 

"Did you really just compare me to an annoying Brit?" My eyes narrowed and my tears turned from sadness to anger. I got up and opened the door to see Michael's face drop.
"Brit... what's wrong? What's happened?" I wanted to punch him in the face. 

"So now you fucking care! You've been fucking ignoring me all week. What did I do to make you ignore..." He grabbed my arm and pulled me into a passionate kiss. I stood in shock before melting into the kiss. As we pulled apart he looked at me and wiped my tears away.

"I'm so sorry, I was really embarrassed about the other night at the bar. I was a retard." I stared at him shocked. "This is probably gonna sound cheesy as fuck but you are the best thing that ever happened to me. You crazy popcorn syrup loving freak who is constantly walking into doors or walls, or anything really. No one else makes me smile like you do. I think I love you Brittney." I looked at him speechless. Michael Vincent 'Rage Quit' Jones was pouring his heart out to me. The man who threw his Xbox out of a window and then smashed it with a golf club cause he got stuck in a video game. I opened my mouth but no words came out. 

"I'm sorry... I shouldn't of said anythi..." I grabbed his collar and smashed his lips against mine. 

"Shut up doofus. I love you too." I muttered against his lips. He chuckled and kissed me softly. I realised what I had said before. 
"Oh shit... I'll be right back," I said before rushing off to the office. Gavin was sitting as his desk miserable. I rushed over to him and pulled him into a huge hug.

"I'm so sorry Gavin, I shouldn't have been so harsh. I know you were just trying to help. But it's you, it was bound for disaster." He chuckled and hugged me back. 

"It's okay Brit... I'm sorry for getting involved. It was killing to see two much you liked each other yet nothing was happening." I smiled and hugged him tighter. 

"Thank you." I whispered and kissed his cheek. He smiled and chuckled. 

"Be nice to my boi," he said winking. I chuckled and nodded.

"I promise." 

(Sorry that it's taken so long and it's shitty :( )
