finnieboi
i feel like i haven't seen you in forever

zesty zara
wdym? you saw me today on set 😂

finnieboi
well, yeah, but like outside of set
you're either hanging out with sadie or caleb or gaten or noah
or wyatt

zesty zara
yeah

finnieboi
why?

zesty zara
why what?

finnieboi
have you stopped hanging out with me?
we were best friends
we would always hang out and crack jokes

zesty zara
idk
it's just that things have been a lot more awkward

finnieboi
wdym?

zesty zara
since i started dating wyatt

finnieboi
why would that make things awkward?

zesty zara
oh, come on, finn, don't play dumb
you've had to have known i liked you the second i stepped on set

finnieboi
what?

zesty zara
i like you, finn
that's why i've been avoiding you
it's hard to be around you when i have feelings for you and i'm dating wyatt

finnieboi
you like me?

zesty zara
yes
and it's okay if you don't like me, but i'm so tired of having to pretend i don't
i just thought i should tell you

finnieboi
no, zara, i like you too

zesty zara
really?

finnieboi
yes
i have since we started hanging out

zesty zara
well shit
this makes things a hell of a lot more complicated

finnieboi
yeah
i miss you, zara
i don't want to stop hanging out with you just 'cause we have feelings for each other and you're dating wyatt

zesty zara
i know, i just don't think it's a good idea

finnieboi
please
it will be strictly as friends
i already lost one best friend, i don't want to lose another

zesty zara
fine but just as friends

finnieboi
just as friends

zesty zara
alright, i'll see you after filming tomorrow!

finnieboi
