*Selfish*
He can't stand to see her with other men, but yet he's afraid to speak up and tell her how he feels. Gary knows that he's being selfish, but dammit, he doesn't care. He loves Holly and while sometimes he wants to tell her, he can't stand the thought of ruining their friendship.
If he thought that Holly actually loved him back in a romantic sense, he would have spoken up a long time ago, before Vince, Henry or Ben ever came along. Now though, it's too late.
Ben and Holly are getting married and while Gary wants to be able to be there for his friends, he can't help wanting to stop the wedding. It's that feeling again, him feeling selfish and wanting Holly all to himself.
Truth be told though, Gary knows that if Holly actually says yes, then he will suck it up and deal with the fact that she will be another man's wife. That doesn't mean it won't hurt him, but Gary would gladly take the pain of seeing Holly happy, as long as she was doing what she really wanted. He loves her that much.
The end.
