"Is the Best Man hot?" - Haley, 2019
***

Throwing his last bag in the trunk of an Uber, Tom was unarguably the most excited person you'd ever encounter in the last couple of days. He'll be flying to Bali with his best friend, Harrison Osterfield, and will be staying there for two weeks. The reason? It was time to plan Harrison's wedding.

His best friend's been engaged for a couple of months now and Tom has yet to meet the woman that made Harrison change his mind about settling. The wedding is happening in two months in Bali, Indonesia and they'll be meeting with Harrison's fiancée and her maid of honor, her best friend.

Harrison 👊🏻
hey mate, ready to go?

Tom 🤙🏻
Yeah I've been for the past ten years

Harrison 👊🏻
shut up, we haven't even been friends for ten years

Tom 🤙🏻
Well it definitely feels like ten years, and it's just right that I get excited for you getting married
We're practically each other's half, not even going to lie

Harrison 👊🏻
well I'm excited too
and I'm going to be more excited for YOUR wedding, too

Tom 🤙🏻
Which is happening in five to ten years

Harrison 👊🏻
it's been too long since you've dated, haven't gotten that spark? At least try to go out and mingle! you always ignore women that actually show interest on you

Tom 🤙🏻
I don't have time for dating. I'm busy with work and you know that
You see that

Harrison 👊🏻
or are you just still hung up on your ex? It didn't end very well so 🤷🏻‍♂️

Tom 🤙🏻
Don't even start

Harrison 👊🏻
Whatever just get here fast
we're going to be late for our flight

Tom 🤙🏻
Yeah yeah I'll see you in half an hour

Harrison 👊🏻
see ya mate 😘

It's always been a sensitive topic for Tom when it comes to his ex-girlfriend. In all his life, he's only dated two women, and both were really complicated. The last time he dated was three years ago and he hasn't looked at any woman romantically ever since. It's not because he's still hung up with his last ex-girlfriend, or maybe he was, but he just wasn't feeling it. He knew he wasn't ready yet and he didn't want to force himself and hurt anyone.

Meanwhile, Harrison's other half, Jenna, was already on her way to pick up her maid of honor, her best friend, Haley. They've only known each other for a year but for the two of them, it already felt like a lifetime. Haley's never met Harrison and vice versa, which frustrated her since Jenna's been dating him a lot longer than she knew you.

Jenna ❤️👯‍♀️
Hello my maid of honor
I'm already on the way to your house
Then we can both go to the airport and meet with Harrison and his Best Man
