Nate and Nattie looked up at me as I stepped in.
“Hi,” Nattie said. He looked tired. I hated I made him feel like this.
Nate nodded at me. He looked scared. I hated I made them both feel like this.
“Look,” I blurted. “It’s kind of like having to choose between someone who gets me and someone who doesn’t and like, most people would choose the person who gets them. But I’m a writer and my favorite thing to do is to explain things to people. I craft them in my head. I love to tell people about new things, and I love to describe. It’s just something I do. And Nate, I just. I mean… we’re so alike, y’know? Like, I knew we were alike before but I know it more now. ‘Cause like, you write and you love books and you’re always so sarcastic, but in a different way than Nattie is. And it’s nice. I like it.” I paused, looking at them. “But you, Nattie. I just… I love you. And I can’t see myself with anyone else, ever, even though it’s probably too early to admit that. And I like you, Nate. I could definitely be with you, I think. But I love Nattie, I love him so much it scares me and I’m sorry but I have to stay with him because without him, I don’t know who I’d be.”
It was dead silent.
I took a deep breath. Whew, that took a lot of air to say. I also felt like it was hella confusing, but that could’ve just been me. I’m pretty sure they understood, though, because Nattie’s face erupted into one of the most beautiful smiles I’ve ever seen.
Nate didn’t look too upset, though. He stands up and kisses my cheek. “I’m sorry, Amy. I should have never put you into this position, and it’s like.. yeah. I’m sorry. Friends first, right?”
I laughed and nodded. He got up and the door closed behind him.
I turned to face Nattie.
He was looking at me strangely and I couldn’t dismantle the expression.
“I love you so much, d’you know that?” He said. “I don’t say it enough. I know that. And I should because I do, and you deserve to hear it. But you’re completely amazing, and I love you, and I can’t see myself with anyone else, either. Because honestly,” he exhaled sharply. “I love you a lot, and… yeah. I do.”
I smiled at him. “What are you waiting for? Get over here and kiss me.”
He rolled his eyes, grabbed my hand and pulled me onto the couch, and kissed me.
