It was an ordinary day. I woke up, ate breakfast with Talia, went to work, got back from work, talked to Harry. I saw Harry every other day. Then go back to sleep. It was the same routine everyday, except for weekends. On Thursday, two weeks ago, I met a guy named Bentley. That same day, Bentley later on texted me at night. We had such an interesting, funny conversation. We planned to hang out as friends today around 8. We hung out two days after we met. We met at the park. Harry had been so angry that I made a new friend- a male friend. You can just call it jealousy. Bentley was just a friend. I can see Bentley and I having a stronger friendship, as in him and I becoming best friends. During the past weeks Bentley and I have been talking, I learned a lot about him. He had divorced parents and a sister named Jenna. He moved to Montana, but only for a month and moved back to Oregon. He has a dog named Baylor, a Dalmatian. He used to have a girlfriend, her name was Kelly. He had been with her for 5 years until unfortunately, Kelly cheated on him. I also learned a lot about his personality. He was hilarious. Sometimes I caught myself bursting out into laughter reading one of his texts.

I was hesitant about telling Harry Bentley was coming over to hang out. I did not want him to think I was up to no good. I thought it would be best for me to keep quiet, but then I also thought it would be even worse if I kept it from Harry. One thing I know for sure, Harry would be furious. Plus, he trusts me, and it's good that he does because I wouldn't do anything behing Harry's back. When Harry found out Bentley and I had been talking when I told him, he got so angry. I had to calm him down. That boy was too jealous. It was 7:40, Bentley would be coming soon. I had currently been on the phone with Harry. He had been talking about how Tyler, one of his best brothers, broke his car and Harry took over his. I had to tell him that Bentley was coming to hang out.

"Harry." I blurted.

"Yeah, babe?" He asked. I bit my lip.

"I just wanted to tell you something." I said.

"What is it, Briella?" he chuckled.

"Bentley is coming over to hang out." I said. There was silence on the other end.

"Harry?" I asked.

"What do you mean he's coming over." Harry said.

"He's coming over, Harry."

"Yes I know but why the fuck is he coming over?!" Harry demanded.

"He's my friend! Since when is it a crime to hang out with my guy friends? You hang out with Kassie and Riley all the time." I argued. Kassie was the young girl, who was now a friend of mine, who threw that party I went to when I just moved to Oregon. The party where I had met Harry. Riley was just another friend of Talia's, I didn't know her well.

"But people are with us!"

"Exactly, Talia's going to be here. Harry, seriously you need to stop being so damn protective." I said.

"Damn protective? I'm fucking damn protective because I don't want him getting anywhere far past the friend limit!"

"And he won't get past the limit." I sighed.
"Can you trust me? I thought you did." I murmured.

"I do trust you." Harry said.

"It doesn't seem like it! Bentley is a friend, your my boyfriend, and that's how it's going to be, okay?" I said.
