Mikey POV
It's been years and I still look at stupid edits of them on Instagram.
I just like to hurt myself apparently.
Andy told me to stop it and try to move on but honestly, he knows nothing.
He doesn't know how it feels when the person you love has feelings for someone else, has eyes for someone else and you're just another random person in their life.
Andy doesn't understand cuz he'll have his happy ending with Sonny.
As soon as the curly-headed boy entered our friend group, they clicked and then announced their relationship to everyone.
Obv I love all of my friends to death and I'm really happy for Harvey but every time he talks or even thinks about Loren, my heart breaks cuz I would kill to be in her position.
No one knows about this secret crush except for Andy and thank god no one suspects anything cuz even tho I'm super jealous, I would never hurt Harvey.
I just need to accept it, he found someone and he's happy now.
To be honest I'm glad that Loren takes away a lot of his time cuz this way I don't have to deal with my feelings about him.
I'm just one of Harvey's friends and all the time we spent together alone is only a far memory.

My feelings for him didn't start out of anywhere, I remember that day like it was printed on my brain.
We met each other through Andy and one day we decided to spend the night all together at Harvey's house.
I'm not gonna lie, we were all a bit drunk that night but while everyone was wasted in the living room, me and Harvey stayed up since we were the only 2 who drank the least and were kinda sober.
A random film was playing on the tv but honestly, none of us were paying attention to it, we were so lost in each other and we started to chat about everything.
I was resting my head on his shoulder while sipping my rum and coke and Harvey had a giant bag of skittles in his hand, those were fun times.
Now we're not that close anymore and I'm kinda sad about it cuz before Loren arrived, I was the one Harvey used to spend every single minute of his life with.

"Mike, tonight Harvey invited us over...do you want to go?" Andy asked bringing me back to reality.
"yeah...so I can third wheel with you and SOnny and watch the cute couple being together...of course I'll go" I said with a sarcastic tone.
"Oh come on. You need to go out and have fun. Maybe you'll find someone and stop thinking about Harvey" Andy tried to convince me.
"What about Harvey?" Sonny asked once he appeared out of nowhere.
"We were just talking about tonight" Andy explained.
"Please Mike..." he begged me with puppy eyes.
"Ok fine..." I gave in and looked back at the football pitch where Harvey was practicing.
I know I'll regret it after...

Time skip -later in the evening-
I was at Andy's house waiting for him to finish getting ready and I looked at Sonny, who was sat next to me on the couch.
"How do you deal with him being so slow every time?"
"Don't know...probably cuz the result is worth the waiting" he simply replied while his eyes were glued on his phone screen.
I didn't question it much and just hoped Harvey had some alcohol cuz I really needed it.
After ages, Andy finally was ready.
"Ok now that you wasted 10 years of my life, can we go?" I asked impatiently.
"Yes we can go" and we left Andy's house and drove towards Harvey's.

Once Sonny parked his jeep in front of the house, I looked at the big house scared and I wanted to go home.
I knew I should have said no to Andy.
"Come on Mikey. It's not gonna be that bad, you'll have fun" Andy reassured me and Sonny smiled at me.
I breathed in and calmed myself down, it's not gonna be that bad.
We walked in and there were more people than I expected, the music was kinda loud but thank god the kitchen was full of alcohol.
I lost Andy and Sonny right away but it was ok cuz they were probably doing something weird together.
I made myself some rum and coke since it's the easiest drink to make and then I stayed in the kitchen by myself, just enjoying my time.
I just needed to keep Harvey out of my head.

"Hey, Mikey!" a way too familiar voice said. Fuck.
"Hey Harv...how are you doing?" I put on a fake smile.
"Still drinking rum and coke" he kinda ignored my question.
"Yep" I simply replied.
He made himself a drink and we stood there without saying anything.
I wanted to say something, to talk to him but I didn't know what to say and my body was frozen.
Then the best song in the world came on and yep, it was mine and Harvey's favorite song.
We used to listen to it every single day but we never got bored of it and it always had a special place in my heart.
I smiled while humming the melody softly and looked at him to see if he remembered it.
At first, it seemed like he didn't forget the song but then Loren arrived and all his attention turned to her.
I was disappointed but not surprised so I just took a sip of my drink.
"Mikey, you're here too! Did you come with Andy and Sonny?" Loren asked with a really kind smile on her face once noticed my presence.
"Yeah...they are around...somewhere..."
She nodded and looked back at Harvey.
You see, the thing is you can't really hate Loren cuz she's always nice and kind to everyone and she's not fake so you know that she's a genuine person.
Hating on her would be much easier but no, she didn't do anything wrong.

Then the couple moved to a random couch and they cuddled each other.
That reminded me of the chats I used to have with Harvey and I asked myself what they usually talk about, do they talk about their dreams, hopes, future or just simple chatting?
Mikey stop.
He doesn't see me in that way and I need to forget about my stupid feelings.
I made myself some shots and drank them just like t was water.
"Jeez. Someone here just had a bad day" Rye said entering the kitchen.
Rye is Harvey's best friend and to be honest I didn't have time for him.
I kept on doing my thing but Rye joined me with the shots right away.
We got wasted together and somehow I found myself on the couch with Rye playing truth or drink.
I wasn't playing cuz it was safer that way but I noticed that Rye was dangerously getting closer, I was drunk but not that drunk so I had to think fast.
I looked at Harvey a couple of times and he just gave me a weak smile each time.
He probably doesn't care that Rye is that close to me, I mean why would he?
So I kissed him, I kissed Rye and said fuck it to everything.
He kissed me back right away and it felt wrong.
Our lips didn't match at all and I could only taste the alcohol, no passion, no desire, no love.
We pulled apart to catch our breaths and I met Harvey's gaze.
I left the room, I actually left the house and asked myself...what the fuck have I just done?

Harvey POV
I looked at Mikey worried after he kissed Rye.
To be honest, I didn't expect it, I didn't know they were that close but for some reason, it hurt me.
But why was I feeling that way?
Mikey can do whatever he wants and I'm with Loren so I shouldn't care but I couldn't help it.
"What happened?" I asked Rye worried for Mikey cuz he left.
"Honestly I don't know mate. I'm too drunk for this..."
I rolled my eyes at my best friend and thought about what to do cuz in the end is still my friend.
"Babe, you should go and check on him..." Loren's soft voice got my attention.
I just looked at her and she simply nodded.

I walked out of the house since I was pretty sure Mikey went that way in fact he was sat on the sidewalk near Sonny's car.
I just sat next to him and noticed the tears in his eyes.
"Mike...everything alright?" I asked a bit hesitant.
He just looked at me and I already knew the answer cuz we used to be super close and I learned to read him like a book.
I put my arm around his shoulder to comfort him but he pulled away.
I looked at him confused.
"I think it's best if we...I need time..." was all he said.
"But did I do something wrong?" I was terrified at that point.
"No it's just that I fell so fucking hard for you, you don't even know much but you are with Loren so I need to fix this by myself"
I was shocked.
"I will always love you, no matter what and you'd always have a chance with me in my world but it went this way and it's ok. I'm really happy for you and Loren..." then he left.
I just stayed there on the sidewalk in the dark, shocked and speechless.
