Douglas and Jenny were best friends since Kindergarten.
However everything changed the night of their College Graduation when Douglas confessed that he had fallen for Jenny in which Jenny Responds with "No this can't happen Douglas, it just can't you've been my best friend since our first day of Kindergarten I never even for a split second thought of you as someone that i could see myself with"
Douglas stands there looking distraught for a minute before saying
"Oh i see. So thats it? I POUR MY HEART AND SOUL OUT TO YOU AND YOU HAVE THE AUDACITY TO COMPLETELY DISRESPECT ME LIKE THAT HUH? YOU DON'T THINK THIS WAS AWKWARD FOR ME? YOU WERE LIKE MY FAMILY FOR SO LONG AND WHEN I REALIZED THAT I WAS IN LOVE WITH YOU I COULDN'T BELIEVE IT."
Jenny"How long have you kept this from me? you know for someone that saw me as family you sure suck at maintaining an open and honest relationship huh?
Douglas"For a long time i thought by not telling you i would be protecting you, i care so much about you Jenny i love you"
Jenny" Stop saying that, i hate you so much for telling me that. Please just get away from me you fucking disgust me Douglas i love you like a sister loves a brother but the fact that you are in love with me makes me never want to speak you again you sick fucking freak"
Douglas stares at Jenny crying
Douglas"Jenny how could you do this to me?. We've been best friends for over 20 years and we can't get through this? i love you"
Jenny" No Douglas we can't okay? I think its best that we stop speaking to each other alright, i can't be your friend, when i now know you see me as someone you want as more then a friend"
Douglas" So that's it? we're no longer friends?"
Jenny" Nope its been a good 20+ years but its time for us to meet other people and grow as individuals"
Jenny walks away as Douglas stands there crying!
Douglas walks away still crying as a former classmate Deanna sees him and asks " Why are you crying? what happened?
Douglas responds with "I told my bestest friend in the world that i love you and she rejected me. Well she didn't just reject me but
she called me a sick freak. Because she apparently always saw me as a brother and the fact that i told her i loved her made her sick"
Deanna says "It never is easy when you fall for a best friend and they see you as just a best friend. But you will get through it
Douglas you will get through it, however in the meantime i think you should crash at my place for awhile"
" I just never thought it would end up like it did De, whats wrong with me? Is there something about me that screams only be friends with this guy never contemplate any idea of anything other then that?" Douglas says to Deanna.
Deanna says after" I know Douglas, lets get going"
Douglas and Deanna get in her car and drive to her place.
That night Deanna made up Douglas's room and then says casually "Douglas how is this? I think i should sleep in here with you tonight by the way".
Douglas responds with " Oh Okay"
