Her two best friends, who began dating not too long ago, seem to be acting strange towards her. As the days pass, she tries to figure out who this man is and she finds that he may be a lot closer to her than she originally expected. Note: This is a story I created and submitted a while back for a writing contest that had a maximum word count of 16,000 words and I wanted to make the most with having such a wide range, so this is likely to be one of the longest stories I will put on here. Thank you to anyone who reads :)Complete
