Meanwhile, Garrett and Willow were becoming more and more closer to each other. To such a point that a secret romance started to develop between them. They met everyday, had dinner dates, went to the cinema, Garrett would pick up Willow at school and take her to her to her to work. They shared passionate kisses when no one was looking behind closed doors. They didn't want suspitions about them to be real. They felt guilty because things were more than fantastic when they were together but they were loyal to their partners. But their relationships with Mila and Victor, respectively were a complete mess, not to mention they were complicated as it was never a there was a mutual commitment or not. So in that context, were they actually being unfaithful or was it justified?
On the other hand Willow felt that Garrett was her soulmate but the age gap worried her as well as his drinking habits, and she figured as they knew each other way to well being just friends would be the better option. But God, Garrett was so hot with his athletic body, brown skin, his 1.90 metre height, and an angelic face. And more importantly he was such a good lad, always caring and humble hearted. Willow's conflict was mainly because she wasn't about her feelings towards Garrett and the reason was Victor. The complete opposite of Garrett, Willow's big crush and the person she believed she would one day grow with. But then, why did feel attracted to Garrett?
Garrett knew about Willow's feelings, she didn't need to tell. There were no secrets between them and they could read each others minds by simply looking at each other. He loved being with Willow as she was sincere and always made him laugh with her witty jokes and teen like nature. Nothing compared to Mila, who constantly manipulated him emotionally, broke up with him several times because she was looking on the man hunt for some rich prick, and because all his care and devotion annoyed her, she wanted to sleep guys without commitments. But although all that Mila did to him, he still loved her and hoped that eventually Mila would love him the way he loved her. With Willow all was uncomplicated. Willow made him feel alive, he was wrapped in happiness with her. But he wasn't sure what he actually felt towards her and he didn't want to hurt Mila by starting a serious relationship with Willow.
