Frightened, they turned quickly to direction of the voice. They both immediately knew who it was. Stevie. She started to walk toward them with a furious look.

"Where have you two been? I've been texting you guys for an hour! Why didn't you answer?"

"I guess we got distracted." Link said deflated, wiping away his eyes, trying to hide his recent tears. "I wasn't feeling to good this morning."

"Well, we've got to film Good Mythical Morning so please try to act like you are feeling okay, okay!?"

"Alright." Link answered politely.
Rhett loved the way Link said 'alright' instead of 'okay'. It gave him a sense of sophistication.

During GMM, Link had been it his all but you could tell that something was up.

When they had finished and were ready to go home, Rhett stopped Link before he left the office.

I won't let all the people I love disappear just because I fell in love with my best friend! You told me I needed to be strong and fight through this! I am going to fight this battle, with or without you!"

Rhett was speechless. His jaw hung open. His eyes began to well up. Link already had tears flowing. He continued softer, "Maybe someday, Rhett, but not today."

Link walked out of the room, wiping away tears, hoping nobody would see him. He got in his car and drove off. Rhett watched through the window. He sat down and rested his head in his hands.
