although heβs listening, his gaze is stuck on his hands as cruz explains himself. avery wished that he could invent a time machine and go back a few days and stop this bullshit from ever happening. it all went sour because he caught feelings for his best friend, which (and no offense, cruz) is definitely not the kind of guy who wants to be tied down to anyone. maybe it was kind of a good thing that this all happened so that they could move past it and they could go back to being best friendββones who do not kiss each other. as cruz finishes explaining himself, avery attempts to process everything heβs just said. sure, what cruz had said wasnβt something he wanted to hear but it was necessary. avery looked up from his hands and smiled his dumb, awkward smile.Β βyes,β he nods and then, because he canβt hold it in any longer, he jumps up from his chair to hug his best friend.Β βiβm really, really sorry. i love you no matter what.β and then, with a laugh, βjust donβt kiss me again, yeah?β
