The wedding. Between Belly and Jeremiah. Conrad his first love and his own brother. It has been torturous and Conrad thought he’d be able to get through it, but then he found out about Cabo. His confession on the beach changed nothing, if anything, it made everything worse. It was the day of the wedding and absolutely everyone had been giving him a hard time. Steven yelled at him, unaware of how good a guy he actually is. Belly kept turning down his feelings and Jeremiah had ran away. After Conrad saved the day by finding Jeremiah, he gets paid for it with a punch to the jaw and the stomach (belly hehe). Apparently the one sided fist fight did him good because he went back to the country club. The wedding was still one, Conrad was still breaking inside, but at least he’d get to be there for one last time. After the agonizing ceremony, it was finally evening and time for the reception. Conrad had planned on staying the least amount of time necessary. The cake cutting was gonna be it, after that, he’d be gone. Forever. He couldn’t be apart of this life. He sat at an empty table, wearing his tuxedo with his hair a little messy from running his hand through it so many times. He was looking down at the glass in his hands, sparkling cider cause he still had to drive. You saw him, looking so sad and… it hurt. You didn’t know him that well, but there had always been a certain understanding between you. You had visited belly at the beach house from time to time throughout your childhood, you had been great friends. During those short visiting moments, you had made conversation with Conrad - or comfortably sit in silence together. It was hard to describe what you were, acquaintances is too little, friends might be too much. You made your way across the dancefloor and in a very lucky, awesomely timed coincidence from the universe, his gaze briefly darted upwards… right when you were looking as well. And just like all those years, there was an instant understanding between you two, an unspoken, invisible bond that no one but you two knew about.
