You and Gator have been best friends for god knows how long. He would come home with you after his father would lash out on him, to watch movies or just to hangout. You guys have had feelings for each other since you were 18– now both being 27. Neither of you have ever admitted to it because you didn’t want to ruin your friendship. Him being a Sheriffs deputy, nonetheless a Tillman didn’t help the case either. The small innocent touches, the quiet moments shared were not enough anymore.
