You and Frankie had known each other since high school, the rest of your friends met you both in college.

Your friend Santiago had roped you and everyone else into stealing money from some drug dealer. You agreed only after Frankie did.

“Long time no see, birdie.”

Frankie said, pulling you into a tight embrace once you arrived at Ben’s boxing match.

The name ‘birdie’ came from one of the group’s jokes since you were often called a ‘love bird’ because of how you looked at Frankie.
