💌 | cooper's favourite memory...!

It's been what... three years? Holy shit. I really miss seeing Nate, Addy and Bronwyn, but I'm so busy it's almost impossible for me to plan a meet up with them. Luckily, Addy recently got in touch with all of us, and says she has a great surprise for us! We finally agreed on a date to meet up, after ages of moving around dates and changing them because someone was always busy. Me. That someone is me.

I'm working towards becoming an all-star baseball player, which means pretty much all my attention has to be on baseball... but I've reserved time for my boyfriend, of course. Ah, how we met is an amazing story! It was at Bronwyn and Nate's wedding...

❝ three years earlier...! ᵕ̈

"Hey man, why don't you come dance?" Nate asked me, taking a break to let Addy and Bronwyn dance together.

"I'm alright, Nate. I'm kinda tired." I said, yawning.

"Aw, bro! It's my wedding night. Let's drink."

I laughed. "Alright, fine. I'll meet you at the bar." Nate left, and I stayed there for a bit, trying to regain as much energy as I could.

As I was about to leave, a guy came over and nodded to the seat next to me. "Is this seat taken?"

Fucking hell. This guy was hot, alright. Your all-american-boy-next-door, was standing in front of me, asking if the seat next to me was taken.

"U-Uh, no. I-It's not." I stuttered. This was the first guy I'd ever found so attractive since Kris. I'd tried to move on, but it wasn't easy. Seeing this guy... Kris didn't even remotely compare to him.

"I'm Lucas, by the way." He introduced himself with a wide smile, and I smiled back.

"I'm Cooper, nice to meet you."

"You look vaguely familiar... are you Cooper Clay?"

This disappointed me because I'd liked not getting recognised for the whole Simon ordeal. "Yeah, I am."

"I knew it! You're the baseball player!"

My heart lifted almost immediately. This guy recognised me because of baseball, not because of Simon. "Yeah, I am!"

"It's fucking awesome to meet you, dude. Hey, could I get your number?"

"M-Mine?"

"You're the first openly gay baseball player! I'd love your number." He sent a wink my way, which sent shivers down my spine.

I grinned, taking his phone. I put my number in then handed it back to him. "So. How'd you know the happy couple?"
