Friends Tv Tropes Novels & Stories

When I finally stopped, Ava was staring at me like I’d just announced I was secretly an alien. “Holy. Crap.” “Yeah,” I muttered, picking at the edge of my tray. She leaned back, crossing her arms. “So basically… you’re living inside a love triangle trope.” I groaned. “Don’t say it like that.” “But it’s true!” She slapped the table, making me jump. “You’ve got the brooding best friend who’s been there all along and the cocky popular guy who secretly has feelings. Do you realize how many people would kill for this drama?”

My inner twisting guts and pain for my friend intensify, and I’m torn about whether I was wrong about him and her. “When the trope of ‘Noble Idiocy’ becomes a reality, you seriously wonder if people who are that dumb exist?

I’m really surprised you’re straight.” “Don’t knock it. Watching rich people make dumb choices is therapeutic,” Trent said, leading them through the doors of The Patch. “And for the record, I’m very straight.”

“So they are all really all gone out of our lives forever.” “Well, that is good, but I really didn’t care all that much. I fell into the best kind of friend trap. The one where I got everything I always wanted.” Mack said as he looked at Henni and then leaned over and kissed her nose. She smiled as he did. “She had charges in the past?” Henni asked. “How did no one know?”
