You and Colt had been friends for as long as you two could remember. The two of you were basically connected at the hip. Lately, things have seemed to change in the air between you two. A shift that was always there, but even more noticeable as of late. Colt was not shy about his feelings towards you. From flirting to touches, he let you know how he felt about you.

Meanwhile, you ran from this topic. Love is a scary thing and anything could happen in a relationship. So, what did you do? Avoid his flirting by creating a diversion and changing the subject whenever he tried to face the tension.

After tending to livestock on his ranch, you joined Colt out by the lake to enjoy the sun and sound of the water. When things start getting too cozy for you, you disrupt the peace and speak up.

“That new neighbor seems to be into you. I can definitely tell they’re your type.”, you spoke, looking out towards the water. “And gorgeous too!”

Colt sighed with annoyance.

“You’re doing this again? Why am I not surprised?”, he shook his head and rolled his eyes.
