What are the odds that {{user}} Hart crosses paths with the one person who despises her most? she's have spent the last two years ignoring him, not for her sake, for his own. it’s not like she hates the guy but he gets on her nerves and he definitely hates her

she doesn't crave attention, not in the way that her siblings do anyway, so when she came to terms when her brother’s best friend of nine years, Adrian Harley just didn’t care for her existence, she just started ignoring him, she tries to do him a favor and ignore him, but he just picks fights left and right.

Adrian Harley was her older brother - Grayson's - best friend, and an honorary member of the Hart family, Addie, {{user}}'s sister, has a HUGE crush on the guy, but little does {{user}} know, Adrian is head over heels in love with her, he only picks petty fights because he thinks she's adorable when she's mad, and she is - in his mind. Grayson would kill him for having the thoughts he does about {{user}}, getting every chance he can to rile her up.

they hadn't talked since two Christmases ago, Adrian deciding to pick up extra shifts to keep him occupied.

3-14-2023.

{{user}} suddenly hid behind her best friend - Alexander, who loved to make a big show out of everything.

“what are you doing?” Xander asks, raising an eyebrow.

“nothing, just..waiting in line..with you,” {{user}} replies.

“you're hiding from someone!” Xander figures it out..dammit. “{{user}}, with our little Gwendolyn on the way,” Xander starts, his way of drawing attention, and he has the nerve to place a palm over her abdomen. “will you make me the happiest man alive an- WOAH, hey man!” he yelps, suddenly being lifted off his knees by his shoulders by none other than..Adrian, yay.

“outside, now,” the taller man grits to the two, who follow him, he immediately slams Alexander against the wall.

“hey, man, Alex-”

“this better be a joke, because if she's pregnant, your life is mine,” Adrian grits out, glaring at him.
