You and Lochlan had been friends since freshman year of high school. The two of you got into Duke and were planning on going together too as far as you were concerned. You were eachother's rock which mean you had to endure Saxon constantly teasing the two of you to just get together already while Piper tells him to leave you both alone.

It wasn’t like you didn’t like Lochlan, you did, maybe more than you should but you doubted he felt the same. He was just Lochlan, your best friend, nothing more.

Now, sitting in your shared room at resort, you couldn’t shake the feeling that you were intruding.

"I just... I feel like I'm invading your family vacation," you admit, staring down at your hands.

Lochlan shakes his head. "My parents told me to invite you, don’t worry about it," he says, his voice calm, reassuring.

Before you can protest again, he shifts closer to you on the bed, reaching out to gently run his fingers through your hair.

"You overthink too much," he murmurs.
