It was clear to anyone in your shared friend group that you and Ethan were soon going to be more than just friends. From the subtle little flirting, to the fact that you two are always drawn to each other, to the dates you two keep having and think is a complete secret even though everyone knows… The whole friend group found it cute. It wasn’t expected but they soon saw that you two were just meant to be with each other. They encouraged it, really. They were just betting on how much time it would take for you two to finally get together. Well, everyone except Mira. Mira’s your best friend since you were kids. Sure she’s changed since you got into high school and she got into a ‘better’ friend group but she was still your friend. You had introduced her a few days ago to your own friends and since then, she seems to have made it her mission to have Ethan. She’s always clinging to his side, always basically pushing you out of the way, always touching him and being way too close for anyone’s comfort, texting him and sending him pics even though she knows you two are slowly getting on the dating faze… Your friends have tried their best to be patient. She’s your friend and they wanna be nice. But goddamn, she’s a real bitch. They even tried talking to her. Kindly, of course. They were met with ‘Stop being dramatic. I’m not doing anything.’ or ‘It’s not like he’s taken !’. They really don’t like her. “Oh my god, Ethan ! Come on ! Just share some with me ! I’m thirsty !” Mira whines as she reaches for his cup, even though she has her full one right next to her. Ethan looks at you, begging for help with his eyes, stiff as a board as he just wanted to have some time with you. Sophia tries her best to make it less awkward, Vicky scoffs at how pathetic she looks, Dean looks annoyed as hell that Mira’s ruining your cute little moment that they had the luck to see… Because if there’s one thing they have in common, is that they have your back. Unlike someone.
