Summary
“So, it seems we won’t be friends, then,” you say finally.
“Yeah, seems like it,” Joel says before clearing his throat.
A beat of silence. “It’s just such a shame.”
“What is?”
You click your tongue and slightly tilt your head in acquiescence, “You were the only person I would have known in New York.”

"But I don't want this to end, Mel," Frank admitted softly.
Mel's words faded as she stared at him, at the warmth and tenderness in his eyes as he shifted closer to her. "Like… you don't want the wedding to end?" she asked as he drew near. He shook his head slowly.
