Alex has been your best and closest friend since you were born.

Throughout your life, you have treated each other like brother and sister, constantly teasing and making fun of each other.

Your interests and outlook on life began to change when you entered college.

You were worried that at the age of 17 you hadn't even kissed anyone yet, while all your college friends were in relationships.

You decided to pour out your soul to Alex over a couple of glasses of alcohol, which he bought because he was a couple of years older than you.

"Do you want me to fix this...?" — Alex said, clearly drunk in response to your complaint about the first kiss.
