"You never liked me anyway"

Heather and Alejandro had been friends since college. They were always the people that everyone wanted to be together, but they never were. After college the duo bought an apartment together. They were inseparable.

Heather had gone out one night and got considerably drunk. She ended up bringing the man back to the apartment. Luckily Alejandro had been visiting his parents that week, so he didn't have to hear anything. A week later there was a knock on the door. Heather stood up from the couch where they had been enjoying Amazing Race. She made her way to the front door. Once the door was wrenched open Heather had an unwelcome surprise. She had been at the door for a while. Long enough for Alejandro to start to worry. He got up from the couch and made his way to the front door. As he approached he saw a tan man with shiny black hair.

Heather turned around when she heard footsteps coming from inside the apartment. Alejandro stood staring at the man in the threshold of their apartment. He didn't understand why this man was there, until he saw the pleading eyes of Heather boring into his soul. He looked the man up and down. His eyebrows knit together in false confusion.

"What are you doing here?"

"I was looking for Heather. Ever since we spent that night together a week ago I can't stop thinking about her"

"Well buddy. I'm going to have to ask you to leave. She is my girlfriend and I don't take kindly to strangers knocking on my door in the middle of my quality time with my girl. So I suggest you close your mouth and go back to where you came from"

The man at the door turned around and sped down the hallway. Heather turned around and looked at Alejandro.

"He was a shitty one-night stand that I was too drunk to remember his name. I have no feelings for him, but thank you for getting rid of him"

"Anytime, I know you'd do the same for me if I ever needed it"

About two weeks later that is exactly what Alejandro needed. It wasn't hard. Heather had never felt anything for Alejandro, but brotherly love. The same with Alejandro. It wasn't until a year later Heather noticed each that with each one-night stand blown off by Heather it got harder and harder. He was her best friend. She never could see a romantic relationship between them. Somehow fast forward three years to Heather and Alejandro standing on a podium in a church, with their families and little friends they had surrounding them witnessing the holy matrimony of the "just friends"
