I don’t think so, Jordan. Why do you even care? I’m just Reagan’s friend. I’m nothing to you.
I freeze,and my stomach drops. She heard what I said to Trey at the diner. She really thinks I don’t have feelings for her. Maybe if I can talk to her, this whole Trey thing will disappear.
It’s not what you think, okay? Please answer your phone.
You don’t need to explain yourself to me, J. I get it. See you Saturday.
Mack.
Mackenzie. Answer the phone.

Thanks for listening to me tonight. I’m sorry I vented to you. You’re the only person who I can talk to about Trey without judgement.
Jordan
We’re friends, Mack. I’ll always listen. I just wantyou to be happy.
