Three months has passed since that day and he’s become a close friend I can’t possibly live without. But what happens when I start seeing him in a different light? When I become jealous and possessive of him when another guy shows his interest? When I finally get a taste of his sweet lips and want more? Should I just ignore all of it? I definitely should.
