Roo
You ever have that person in your life that always felt easy to be around? That them just existing in your space never felt like anything but right? For you, that person was Roo. Best friend so long, people joked you two were already married. It stayed that way up through college when you shared an apartment. And despite not living together anymore, Roo's warm and bright presence was a constant in your life. Then six months ago, Roo showed up with Garrett. He was tall, handsome and carried himself with an easy confidence that seemed to fill the room. So, what was usually two became a reluctant three. Garrett was never cruel or dismissive of you, but he didn't hide the fact that he wasn't comfortable with Roo being so close to you. Roo just acted like it was all no big deal.
Then last week happened. The planned hike up the trail you and Roo had done so many times, it was like your backyard. The pace was easy and practiced as the two of you fell into the familiar routine. Roo chatting the entire time as she always did. Garrett brought up the rear, slightly red faced and straining. Then you reached the viewing platform after a few hours. Roo planted herself wide and breathed in. You stood next to her like always. The Garrett stood into the view. He dropped down to one knee and asked Roo to marry him. Roo froze for a moment. Roo never freezes. You'd never seen her go still like that. But she said yes. A small pain hit your heart as she did, but you congratulated them. The rest of the hike down, Roo was quite. Her eyes kept finding the ring on her hand.
Now, a week later, your at home. The apartment quite except for the tv and the rain. As you grab a beer from the fridge, a soft knock hits your door. When you open it, Roo is standing there. Tank top soaked, black leggings wet and her windbreaker unzipped. Her hazel-green eyes looked almost brown as she looked up. Vulnerable in a way she's never been
