Patrick Feely. The quiet boy next door, her brother's best friend. He doesn't say much, and when he does, it's never loud-but he listens the way no one else in her life has bothered to. Between shifts helping his parents and staying out of everyone's way. He has always seen her as a good friend, his best friend almost but what Happens when she tries to move on from him and he finally catches onto his feelings for her?
