"Are you sure you want to do this? I mean, it is a pretty big step."

"Yes, it is..."

"Which is why I understand if you don't want to go through with it," I rub her back soothingly.

"No, I do. I feel ready," Sabrina says confidently as she grabs my hand.

A wide smile finds my lips and I put my pen on the lease, signing my name, Sabrina doing so after me.

"Congratulations you are homeowners," the realtor shakes our hands before handing me the keys and leaving our home.

You may be a bit lost on what just happened, well... That night Corey came to Sabrina's house, we didn't have actually have sex, in fact, we ended up having a serious conversation. I didn't feel right just staying in Elizabeth's home, I felt invasive like an intruder, even though she always made me feel welcome. I decided I wanted to get a place, and Sabrina brought up the idea of us living together. At first, we laughed about it, thinking it wasn't realistic because we are both so young, but soon after we began talking about how dreamy it would be to actually share a home. Then, we realized that we can move in together. Sabrina already has a job, so I got one nearby at a quiet bookstore. I really like the vibe and the paycheck is more than enough. Now, one month later, we paid our down payment and closed in on our first house.

I smile as I hold the keys up excitedly. Sabrina squeals and jumps onto my waist happily. 

"We bought a house," she squeals again.

I chuckle and spin her around.

"Wait, so this means we are grown now", she smirks mischievously as I put her back on her feet.

"I think...it does," I smirk back as my hands find her sides.

"Hmm, so this house is all ours", she asks before biting her lip.

"I believe so", my eyes glisten at her playful tone.

"So, I can totally do this?"

She leans in and kisses me deeply, and tugs on my bottom lip when she pulls back slightly.

"And this?"

Her cool hands slide underneath the hem of my shirt, slowly but surely sliding up my abdomen. I take charge and crash our lips together, she hums at the sensation.

We have been going slow, resisting the sexual tension between us just to make sure we are ready before moving too fast.

"OH MY GOD I FUCKING LOVE IT! ITS SO CUTE AND THE HARDWOOD FLOOR IS SUCH A NICE TOUCH", a voice squeals which makes Sabrina and I pull apart.

"Troye, we literally just bought this place and you are already breaking in", I chuckle.

"I did no such thing! The door was unlocked," he says in his thick aussie accent.

"Gotta lock the door babe", Sabrina pretends to scold me.

"Am i interrupting something," Corey says as he walks into our now open front door.

"I mean lets just invite the whole neighborhood am I right", Troye smirks.

"Why the whole neighborhood," Corey asks confused.

"I mean, if they all look as good as you why not," Troye winks at Corey and I furrow my eyebrows whilst tilting my head.

"Dude," I cringe.

I met Troye at my job and we quickly hit it off. He is like my closest friend here.

"What i can look", Troye grins with a shrug.

"I kinda ship it," Sabrina bites her thumb while looking between corey and Troye.

"I'm literally right here. I can totally hear you," Corey says.

"Exactly! Now troye, let's be out", I sling my arm around his shoulder.

"Awh, you have work already", Sabrina pouts

"Mhmm, this place wasn't free", I lean over to kiss Sabrina's cheek before waving goodbye to Corey and heading to work with Troye.

{Sabrina's point of View}

"We have been through this before Corey, I'm happy with what and who I have", I sigh.

"But im not!"

"What about Rowan? I thought things were going really well with you guys", I say.

"She's not the one for me and we both know it," Corey places his hand over mine and i pull away way too quickly for his liking.

"And im not either," I say lightly.

"But you can be! It's a quick procedure and its extremely rare we would get cought"

"I don't want to," I get up from the stool, and walk into the living space.

"Why not?!"

"I'm in love Corey! Y/n is the one i want can't you see that", I nearly yell.

"You can keep telling yourself that, but we both know who you really want," he tries to caress my cheek but i move away.

"What we had was years ago. We were both kids and it doesn't even matter now," I groan.

"Really? So why won't you tell Y/n about it," he asks sassily.

I open my mouth to speak but nothing comes out.

"Exactly," he smirks.

"Corey you can't keep springing this on me", i say lowly.

"I need you to acknowledge how i feel," he nearly pleads.

"I don't know what you want from me", I cross my arms over my chest.

"Look me in the eye and tell me you don't have feelings for me", he steps closer to me.

I nod as i stare directly into his eyes. I feel nothing like i used to, i see him like a brother. The feeling I have looking at him is nothing like the way i feel when i see Y/n.

"I love you Corey, just not in the way you love me," I say truthfully.

He looks away from me, putting his hands in his pockets. He looks hurt and I feel bad for that.

"Cor-"

"No, its fine, im fine", he says. And with that he walks out the door.

Why is my life so complicated?

Well y/n was right ig. ALSO WE GOT TROYE AGAIN 😍
