Did we necessarily need to fake date? No.
Do I kinda like what's happening here? Yes.
Do I have feelings for Syd? I don't think so.
It's Sunday morning and I'm doing nothing else but studying with Ales at this cool cafe. We decide to order some food since we're going to be here for a while.
"So what's the deal with you and Sydney?" He asks me like I'm keeping some huge ass secret
"Nothing. Just fake dating," I say, shrugging
"Why?" He asks giving me a strange look
"Well because Josh fucking groped her and then I got pissed and said I was her boyfriend," I say, instantly getting mad.
"I fucking hate that dude," he says, shaking his head
"Same but she didn't want to fucking report him to get kicked off the team," I say rolling my eyes
"Is that really the case or are you just pissed that he touched her?" He asks, taking a sip of his black coffee
"Of course I'm pissed he touched her. I mean, she was my best friend practically since birth," I say to him
"Yeah but are you sure there are no other feelings involved?" Ales asks, raising his eyebrow
"You ask too many questions," I say rolling my eyes "come on let's study but first. How the mafia shit going," I ask him, lowering my voice
"It's going. I mean my father's being bitchy about the Mexicans but that's nothing out of the ordinary," he says shrugging
"I don't know how you do it dude. Like as soon as you leave high school you're going to Italy?" I ask, he's never said anything about the future yet
"I don't know yet, my dad wants me to head back to Sicily, but then that means that Cat and I will have to do long distance," he says, visibly getting sad
"You must really love her, eh?" I ask him
"Trust me, I really do. Love is single-handedly one of the best experiences in the world, you never know when it will happen. But you will be grateful that it did," he says
"Welp love's not on the brain right now so I'll focus on hockey," I say, shrugging
Ales hums 'love on the brain by Rihanna and then mutters "Mhm sure, now let's study,"
We study for a bit and then we leave to my house. I drive and Ales plays some Adele. Once we get there we go upstairs to the gaming room to chill, I sit on the couch and I see a bunch of texts from the group chat that I have with the guys.
