00:00:05your girlfriend should be crawling back to you tonight huh obviously she's never made a
00:00:09bake-up last 30 days i caught my boyfriend kissing my roommate so i dumped him that same day
00:00:20chase didn't apologize instead his friends started betting on when i'd come crawling back
00:00:28i'm betting seven days too short two weeks one month right on your birthday fine settle it that day
00:00:39chase put down a thousand dollars he was sure i'd cave by his birthday noah what about you
00:00:56i bet she never goes back everyone was betting on when i'd go back to him
00:01:02only chase's best friend bet that i never would
00:01:15back then i still had no idea why noah was so sure
00:01:32riley let me explain don't
00:01:37we just had a little too much to drink you get drunk and somehow land exactly on my boyfriend's mouth
00:01:43impressive aim
00:01:46it was one kiss do you really have to make such a big deal out of it we've been together
00:01:50for a year
00:01:51and a half i thought catching him cheating would make me cry scream maybe trash the room but when
00:01:56i actually saw it i had only one thought if it's dirty i don't want it we're done you're serious
00:02:05more serious than that kiss
00:02:10i thought that was the end by the next night i realized that to chase it hadn't even started
00:02:36it hadn't even been 24 hours since chase and i broke up riley you're not upset just because i'm here
00:02:41are you
00:02:42she was my roommate yesterday she kissed my boyfriend today she'd already mastered playing
00:02:46the victim as his new girlfriend if you don't like it leave you're right the air in here does kind
00:02:51of stink
00:02:57jealous let go your eyes are red stop pretending
00:03:02of course i was hurt mostly because it took me a year and a half to see who he really
00:03:07was
00:03:09control your boyfriend don't let him harass his ex after the breakup the smile vanished from madison's face
00:03:15i got all the way downstairs before realizing i'd left my bag so i had to go back she didn't
00:03:20look
00:03:20over him at all want to bet how long before she comes back i'm giving her a week too short
00:03:24i'm
00:03:24betting two weeks one month i stopped outside the door they were actually putting money down
00:03:31to him my breakup wasn't a choice it was a tantrum with an expiration date my pride
00:03:36my pain my boundaries they were all worth a few hundred bucks to them
00:03:42standing outside listening to people bet on you fun i turned around noah hates chase's best friend
00:03:50and the guy who'd seemed to dislike me most for the past year and a half
00:03:54betting on what betting on what noah you're the only one left how many days before riley comes back
00:04:06i bet she never goes back bro you just giving your money away since when do you know her that
00:04:11well apparently better than you do tonight noah and i were never friends he thought i was a pain
00:04:17i thought he was an asshole for a year and a half seeing each other without trading insults would have
00:04:22been weird so i never imagined that in a room full of people the only one who believed i wouldn't
00:04:27go back
00:04:27with him
00:04:32yours
00:04:41thanks first time i've ever heard you be this polite to me first time you've acted like a decent human
00:04:45being good you're back to normal
00:04:52where are you going with noah none of your business it's this late what are you doing out with another
00:04:56guy the guy who kissed my roommate yesterday was now checking my schedule whatever you and madison
00:05:00do that's what noah and i are doing
00:05:05let me make sure i heard that right i live off campus no roommate
00:05:09so what exactly were you planning to do with me for the first time in my life i regretted speaking
00:05:13before thinking very very specifically i'll buy you a drink avoiding the question paying you back
00:05:25fine but you are going back to change first also don't forget what you just said
00:05:31watching him walk away i realized for the first time that the guy who'd always hated me might actually be
00:05:39dangerous
00:05:39drinking over chase he's not worth the price of the drink i've embarrassed myself too many times tonight
00:05:46i need a hard reset
00:05:48you've already rebooted twice
00:05:50i'm sober every drunk person says that
00:05:54i wasn't blackout drunk i just suddenly didn't want to be the sensible riley who always made things easy for
00:05:59everyone else
00:06:07they really think i'm going back then show them you're not
00:06:14are we still doing it doing what what chase and madison would do if you don't shut up we're not
00:06:19doing
00:06:19anything i was only trying to snap back at him but the second he kissed me one thought took over
00:06:26tonight was already a disaster what was one more bad decision
00:06:37he looked at me completely differently no annoyance no sarcasm just focus like he was waiting to see if
00:06:44i'd push him away don't stop
00:06:49i had never been this clear-headed during sex i knew exactly what i was doing less than two days
00:06:55after
00:06:55dumping chase i was in bed with his best friend shaking from what his mouth was doing to me
00:07:10you okay move my body was way more honest than my brain i remembered everything the grip of his hands
00:07:17on my waist the sound he made against my neck the way i lifted my hips to meet him
00:07:21i hated how fast i lost myself in it my body didn't care
00:07:27the rest of that night never disappeared from my memory
00:07:31it was just wildly inappropriate to replay in daylight my brain chopped it into a roller coaster
00:07:36speed free fall sharp turns and me swearing at least three times i'd never ride again
00:07:43the worst part was when i woke up the next morning i remembered everything
00:07:52i wasn't forced i didn't black out i had no one to blame so i made the most childish adult
00:07:58choice
00:07:58possible i ran
00:08:03i thought if i ran fast enough i could shove last night into the trash bin of my life
00:08:13where were you
00:08:24none of your business i waited here all night your phone was off you never came back
00:08:30so don't tell me something actually happened between you and noah
00:08:34you already had a new girlfriend yesterday that's different how don't make me lose it
00:08:43maybe he hadn't waited all night because he was worried maybe this was the first time he'd realized
00:08:48a chip on his bedding table could walk away on its own
00:08:52it's only day three and you're already panicking i'm not panicking you won't last a month
00:08:58i'm not panicking you won't last a month
00:08:58then enjoy the wait
00:09:01hey let her go
00:09:07feeling proud of yourself what chase waited downstairs for you all night but i'm the girlfriend he actually
00:09:14claims in public she was fighting for a trophy i had already quit the competition congratulations
00:09:21better keep an eye on your prize
00:09:38i suddenly had a very bad feeling
00:09:45come here
00:09:46what
00:09:47we need to settle something
00:09:50let me be clear you don't have to take responsibility for me
00:09:54you really thought this through i'm trying to avoid awkwardness
00:09:59we're on campus can your brain go anywhere else for once
00:10:03i'm here to make you take responsibility for this and this was i really that rough last night
00:10:10want the full replay no if he'd yelled at me i might have been less embarrassed instead he was
00:10:16presenting evidence one piece at a time of exactly how eager i'd been i'm sorry what do you want me
00:10:22to
00:10:22do you think money fixes this then what do you want
00:10:28just so we're clear i don't want a relationship right now and we don't even like each other there's
00:10:32no reason to tie ourselves together over one accident we don't like each other don't we whatever
00:10:41for one second i thought i saw hurt in his back as he walked away the idea was so ridiculous
00:10:46i
00:10:46dismissed it immediately
00:10:57i was the one who drew the line but once noah actually stepped back
00:11:01i started missing him
00:11:13judging by noah's attitude nothing really happened between you two
00:11:18you came to my class just to confirm that his standards are high
00:11:22you're not his type out of everyone you could choose i'm still your best option
00:11:26a cheater was talking about himself like a college admissions brochure so if we get back together
00:11:32i can kiss whoever i want to try it it's day 12 since we broke up right you bet i'd
00:11:38come back within a
00:11:39month so why are you so nervous
00:11:43the more he lost control the more certain i became he wasn't afraid of losing me he was afraid of
00:11:50losing the bet
00:11:54didn't you decide to ignore me i did
00:12:00i know i want you noah i won't deny it tomorrow you kept that with insurance against someone running
00:12:08too far so how exactly am i supposed to take responsibility i don't need you to date me
00:12:12because of one night but you should at least know the person you walked out on wasn't being as casual
00:12:16as you were what do you mean that night was my first time so riley carter how are you planning
00:12:24to
00:12:24make that up to me his first time how was anyone that good their first time
00:12:48i thought sleeping with my ex's best friend was the most embarrassing thing this could get
00:12:54nope i'd taken my ex's best friend's virginity and then disappeared the next morning
00:13:04chase says you've been hanging all over noah lately
00:13:09does he not have a life i'm just warning you noah won't take you seriously a guy like him wouldn't
00:13:16want
00:13:16you weird chase and madison kept saying the exact same thing like if they repeated it enough noah
00:13:25magically wouldn't like me
00:13:38about last night don't
00:13:43i haven't even said anything yet you don't owe me a relationship i got it
00:13:52he was being perfectly respectful somehow that made it feel even more like a door slamming shut
00:14:14each thing had seemed too small to matter on its own put together they became something else
00:14:28madison have you been filming vlogs recently yeah just document any senior year
00:14:45shopping group spam
00:14:50from then on i started closing the bed curtain before changing clothes in my own dorm
00:15:00sorry wrong person
00:15:06i'm not allowed to go
00:15:09i'm not allowed to go you don't look like the cat toy making type your opinion to me is impressively
00:15:12consistent
00:15:16diy cat wig you can make one yourself or a staff member can teach you
00:15:22then i only want you to teach me
00:15:27one completely normal sentence from him now sounded like it had eight hidden meanings
00:15:33all because of those two words first time
00:15:46back off
00:15:48i didn't even touch her
00:15:51neither did i
00:15:55you gonna defend him
00:15:56i was gonna say you're aiming too high
00:16:00chase always called me too sensitive too serious
00:16:04noah never asked he didn't actually touch you so what's the big deal
00:16:08that meant more to me than any sweet talk
00:16:16give me your phone
00:16:20are you insane i'm filming the cats
00:16:25you've had it up for 10 minutes nine of those the camera was on riley
00:16:31touch my phone and i'll call the police
00:16:33he doesn't need to take it
00:16:39unlock it yourself or i'm calling the police right now
00:16:44riley i swear i didn't mean anything by it
00:16:53delete this one
00:16:57how did you know that was me
00:17:01exactly you can't even see her face how did you know
00:17:05deal with the photos first
00:17:10password
00:17:11that's my privacy
00:17:13where was that word when you were secretly taking pictures of me
00:17:18what disgusted me most wasn't any one photo
00:17:20it was realizing i'd been collected piece by piece in the one place i was supposed to feel safe
00:17:29regular face shots are worth a few dozen dorm shots pay more pajamas changing private angles
00:17:37sets are worth more
00:17:39what if i put together a full set
00:17:42if it's private enough a few thousand
00:17:46so far she only sent one long distance photo taken in public just to prove the subject was really you
00:17:52the rest haven't been sent yet but they already agreed on a delivery date
00:17:58when
00:18:01two days from now
00:18:02i just needed the money
00:18:05for what
00:18:07she says she wanted to buy her boyfriend a birthday gift
00:18:14he's been asking every day if you've contacted him i just wanted him to see who's actually here with him
00:18:20now
00:18:23he's with me but he stares at that stupid bet every day
00:18:32every day he asks whether riley has contacted him
00:18:37his birthday is coming up i just wanted to buy him the watch he wanted so i know i'm the
00:18:41one who stayed
00:18:43she didn't hate the guy who treated two girls like pieces in a game
00:18:48she chose to sell another girl's privacy just to prove she'd won
00:19:01if you want to impress a man don't use my body to pay for it
00:19:11madison
00:19:19are you insane
00:19:20are you insane listen before you touch her again
00:19:25madison has been secretly photographing riley for a while
00:19:29there are pictures from the dorm including while riley was changing
00:19:34she also contacted a buyer regular photos were worth a few dozen dollars
00:19:39pajama shots and more private photos were worth more
00:19:43none of the private photos have been sold yet
00:19:47but she already negotiated the price and delivery date
00:19:55she says she needed the money to buy her boyfriend a birthday gift
00:20:04if you needed money why didn't you just tell me
00:20:09i wanted to surprise you
00:20:14the pictures weren't even sold she's already going to get punished by the school
00:20:19isn't that enough
00:20:22what did you just say
00:20:25we all go to the same school
00:20:28do you really have to ruin her life
00:20:30that was when i finally understood
00:20:33chase knew exactly what boundaries were
00:20:37he just thought that if he wasn't the one getting hurt
00:20:40everyone else should get over it
00:20:46what if someone secretly photographed you changing and put a price on it
00:20:52that's not the same
00:20:54of course it's the same
00:20:55you just think my boundaries are worth less than yours
00:21:00she was right to report it
00:21:03this is between me and her
00:21:05since when is it your place to talk
00:21:08you and her
00:21:10you two broke up a while ago
00:21:21wait
00:21:28you can't even see riley's face in that picture
00:21:34but noah knew it was her immediately
00:21:38unless he's seen her wearing that before
00:21:43and the night riley left with noah
00:21:46she never came back to the dorm
00:21:48explain
00:21:51a guy who cheated on me
00:21:53then publicly showed off his new girlfriend the next day
00:21:57was now demanding an explanation for my single life
00:22:02there's nothing to explain
00:22:05so you two really
00:22:06yes
00:22:12riley you're asking for it
00:22:16keep your hands to yourself
00:22:19noah
00:22:20you knew she was my girlfriend
00:22:22ex-girlfriend
00:22:25are you still my fucking brother or not
00:22:28she broke up with you
00:22:33who she gets with after that doesn't need your approval
00:22:41i started it
00:22:43i've been drinking
00:22:45i kissed him first and i
00:22:51you really don't need to describe it
00:22:53just don't touch him
00:22:58you'd rather sleep with him than come back to me
00:23:00why do you still think my life is a choice between you and getting revenge on you
00:23:11i used to think chase was just possessive
00:23:14later i realized possessiveness at least comes from valuing something
00:23:18he simply couldn't stand being abandoned first by someone he looked down on
00:23:28how long are you planning to hold my hand
00:23:35sorry special circumstances
00:23:40which part was special telling your ex you slept with me or telling him you were the one who started
00:23:45it
00:23:46shut up
00:23:50i just bought that top
00:23:51how did you recognize it
00:23:53it looked like the one from that night
00:23:56you remember that clearly
00:23:58yeah
00:24:00i remember everything from that night
00:24:06it was my first time after all
00:24:10driver can you go any faster speed limit
00:24:17i learned that one sentence from one person could make me blush
00:24:21from my ears all the way down my neck
00:24:30riley
00:24:34thanks for today
00:24:37you've done more for me
00:24:39i wasn't talking about the police station
00:24:42then what
00:24:43you stepped in front of me
00:24:46don't do that next time
00:24:47if chase actually swings at someone
00:24:48i can take it better than you
00:24:50chase only ever cared about who i belong to
00:24:54noah was the first person who made me realize
00:24:57someone could care whether i got hurt
00:25:20the closer chase's birthday got
00:25:22the less he looked like a guy who was sure he'd win
00:25:36chase broke up with madison
00:25:38come on riley
00:25:39he won't mess around again
00:25:42so cheating once gets fixed by dumping the other girl and doing a factory reset
00:25:48that's not what i meant
00:25:49then stop speaking for him
00:25:58three days
00:26:00you're really throwing away a year and a half
00:26:06i didn't throw it away
00:26:08you did
00:26:19another new number
00:26:21i can forgive what happened with you and noah
00:26:27as long as you stop seeing him
00:26:30i can even pretend you never said we were done
00:26:34are you giving me a pardon
00:26:36i'm at a hotel with madison right now
00:26:40say you don't want me to
00:26:42nothing will happen between us tonight
00:26:45then have fun
00:26:52he used to get close to other girls on purpose
00:26:55and i'd lie awake hurting over it
00:26:59that night i realized
00:27:02i couldn't even be bothered to get angry anymore
00:27:16is he really going to collect his money
00:27:19or does he just want to watch chase lose it
00:27:24why not both
00:27:28when did you get here
00:27:30right around someone was talking about me
00:27:39noah
00:27:40noah showed me the bet the pool on whether i'd go back to chase had reached 2400 dollars
00:27:47are they seriously this board
00:27:50you're valuable
00:27:53thanks not how i wanted to find out
00:27:56come to the birthday party
00:27:59i don't want chase getting the wrong idea
00:28:01then you definitely should go
00:28:04you're in film society too
00:28:06you shouldn't have to give up your friends
00:28:08your club
00:28:09and every event just because of one x
00:28:13that hit me
00:28:15since the breakup
00:28:16i'd been avoiding chase like i was the one who'd done something wrong
00:28:22okay
00:28:23i'll wait downstairs

00:28:33the day the bet finally got settled
00:28:36you're trying on this many outfits for a birthday party

00:28:40after the secret photo mess i got a new roommate
00:28:44technically an award show
00:28:48i wasn't going to prove i was happier than chase
00:28:51the real win was finally not living by his opinion of me
00:29:01does it look bad
00:29:04i'm wondering if 2400 is enough
00:29:07enough for what
00:29:13your emotional damages

00:32:07only a little
00:32:09the 2400 helps
00:32:12that night i realized something for the first time
00:32:14the person who'd made my heart rust most that month wasn't chase anymore
00:32:17it was this sharp-tongued impossible guy who somehow always stood beside me when i was at my worst
00:32:23i was at my worst time
00:32:23noah
00:32:25why do you keep coming to the cat cafe
00:32:30you already know how to make these
00:32:32no
00:32:34you made three by yourself last time
00:32:37i forgot
00:32:39your amnesia only affects crafts
00:32:44riley from now on when noah comes in you're assigned to him
00:32:47he just loaded two thousand dollars onto his membership
00:32:52two thousand are you planning to retire here
00:32:56no
00:32:57no
00:32:58then what are you getting out of this
00:33:04service
00:33:07i used to explain every time he came near me as just happened to
00:33:11you
00:33:12but once someone just happens to show up 20 times
00:33:15it gets harder to believe
00:33:18noah
00:33:20yeah
00:33:22are you trying to date me
00:33:26yes
00:33:30because of that night
00:33:32no
00:33:34because you feel responsible
00:33:37no
00:33:38then why
00:33:41because i already liked you
00:33:44what does already mean
00:33:49when did it start
00:33:52forgot
00:33:53you remember what i wore that night but you forgot this
00:33:59so all that making fun of me was the american version of a secret crush
00:34:03no
00:34:05then what was it
00:34:10keeping my distance
00:34:12keeping your distance required telling me i was annoying every time you saw me
00:34:17being too nice to my best friend's girlfriend
00:34:19would have made me look like the asshole
00:34:25just know it started earlier than you think
00:34:27i thought that was already ridiculous
00:34:29the next day i found out just how early earlier really was
00:34:36yo you finally got her shut up
00:34:40what do you mean finally
00:34:47he's liked you since freshman year
00:34:49you're really trying to die today
00:34:51he's liked you since then
00:35:02freshman year
00:35:04he's exaggerating
00:35:05when exactly
00:35:07the day film society was recruiting
00:35:10back then
00:35:11back then i wasn't even with chase yet
00:35:15i tried to remember that day
00:35:17all i remembered was the heat
00:35:20someone helping me carry a box
00:35:22and me handing him the last cold bottle of water
00:35:26you're in film society
00:35:28what do you play the fat pig
00:35:36what are you doing
00:35:38what are you doing
00:35:39then what are you here to play
00:35:40an asshole
00:35:42you'd be perfect
00:35:47an afternoon i didn't remember at all
00:35:50had been sitting in someone else's memory for three years
00:35:57just because i ripped up one application
00:36:00do i really seem that shallows
00:36:04later i realized you're soft-hearted until someone crosses a real line
00:36:09then chase started chasing you
00:36:11so you just never said anything
00:36:13you liked him he was my brother
00:36:17then why were you always doing things for me
00:36:21i wasn't
00:36:23the new umbrella in the club closet the day after it rained
00:36:28club supplies
00:36:29i hate pickles
00:36:30at every group dinner you always move them away from me
00:36:33i don't eat them either
00:36:35whenever chase made fun of me you were always the first one to tell him to stop
00:36:39he was annoying
00:36:44stop digging up old evidence
00:36:47all the little things i'd filed under he hates me
00:36:50suddenly meant something completely different
00:36:59that night everyone bet i'd go back
00:37:05why were you so sure i wouldn't
00:37:09not because i know chase
00:37:12because i know you
00:37:16you know me that well
00:37:19better than you think
00:37:22you seem soft
00:37:23but once you truly decide you're done with something
00:37:25you never pick it back up
00:37:28chase dated me for a year and a half
00:37:30and still thought my boundaries were negotiable
00:37:33noah had never had me at all
00:37:35yet he trusted me more
00:37:38didn't it hurt watching me date chase
00:37:44sure what was i supposed to do about it
00:37:47you could have stolen me
00:37:51then i'd be exactly the kind of guy you hate chase for being
00:37:55you're not always that annoying
00:37:58high praise
00:38:01the weirdest thing after learning he liked me wasn't the butterflies
00:38:06it was the safety
00:38:09i didn't have to decode whether he was hot or cold
00:38:12he'd already given me the answer
00:38:17you don't have to choose me right now
00:38:20why
00:38:22you just got out of a terrible relationship
00:38:24i've waited three years
00:38:26i can wait a few more days
00:38:29you're not scared i still won't choose you
00:38:32i am
00:38:33then why are you so calm
00:38:36being scared and pressuring you are two different things
00:38:39i almost had my answer right then
00:38:43but before i could say it something else hit first
00:38:48my period was 15 days late
00:38:54noah and i had used protection that night
00:38:57the problem was there'd been one little accident
00:39:02i really didn't want to think about
00:39:06wait the condom broke
00:39:11i don't have another one
00:39:15don't go
00:39:17riley no
00:39:18no
00:39:18i want you noah
00:39:24great every impulsive adult decision eventually comes back as a bill a test result
00:39:47oh my god
00:39:53this isn't something you say over text
00:40:00i don't want to think about it
00:40:05in one second my brain went from he's loved me for three years
00:40:09to men are all the same
00:40:11full tragedy
00:40:14may that bastard die childless
00:40:18who are you calling a bastard
00:40:21girl why are you crying
00:40:29if you use drag to catfish people again
00:40:32i swear i'll throw you into the street
00:40:35art has no gender
00:40:40what is going on with you
00:40:43i'm pregnant
00:40:48get in the car
00:40:51you're not even going to ask if it's yours
00:40:55you really think that's the question i should be asking right now
00:41:01he didn't propose
00:41:03he didn't interrogate me
00:41:05he didn't put on some big i'll take responsibility act
00:41:09the first thing he did was take me to a clinic and find out what was actually happening
00:41:16you're not pregnant the home test was a false positive
00:41:19your blood test is negative
00:41:23you're both young plenty of time for that later
00:41:26thanks no rush
00:41:31what are you laughing at
00:41:33i'm not
00:41:33you are
00:41:36i was just remembering how someone already picked out two baby names in the car
00:41:41shut up
00:41:43it should have ended there as a false alarm
00:41:49but someone across the street took a picture of us leaving the women's clinic
00:42:01the post never made one direct accusation
00:42:03it just arranged the pieces in the ugliest possible way
00:42:07i didn't like noah i might be pregnant and he took me to a clinic
00:42:20he definitely saw it
00:42:22then why isn't he saying anything
00:42:28noah is my boyfriend he accompanied me to a normal medical appointment
00:42:32the anonymous post deliberately misrepresented our private medical information
00:42:36i have reported it to the university and police
00:42:42my hand paused when i typed the word boyfriend then i posted it anyway
00:42:51why aren't you defending yourself
00:42:54defending what
00:42:56they're calling you a criminal
00:42:58the post got one thing right
00:43:03what
00:43:04i don't have a title
00:43:10i'm taking you to a women's clinic with no title of course people are going to talk
00:43:15that's what you're focused on
00:43:18what else
00:43:20didn't you see what i just posted
00:43:22i saw it
00:43:26then why are you still salting
00:43:30if you only called me your boyfriend to get me out of trouble
00:43:33you don't have to give me that title
00:43:35i suddenly realized this guy who acted like nobody mattered could turn into a complete princess when it came to
00:43:41me
00:43:43noah
00:43:45i didn't call you my boyfriend just because i felt responsible
00:43:48it's because i like you
00:43:56did you hear me
00:44:00where are you
00:44:01where are you
00:44:01by the fountain
00:44:02but i run away
00:44:07afraid to fall into your
00:44:12say it again
00:44:15you heard me
00:44:17i want the live version
00:44:21i like you
00:44:24i really like you
00:44:27and right now you're the only one i like
00:44:31i chased one person for a long time and spent even longer trying to read another
00:44:37the first time i entered a relationship where we both liked each other
00:44:41i realized love isn't supposed to feel like a reading competition test
00:44:46what about me
00:44:52but some people are like campus fire alarms the timing is always perfectly annoying
00:44:58madison and i broke up a while ago nothing happened between us
00:45:02so
00:45:06you really don't care at all
00:45:08why would i
00:45:16you knew i made that forum post and you still didn't even call me
00:45:19so you spread that rumor just to force me to contact you
00:45:25you're even more disgusting now than the day you cheated
00:45:31riley i honestly don't know how we ended up like this
00:45:35then figure it out
00:45:38i can change
00:45:41i can apologize for the bet too
00:45:45a month ago he was sure i'd come back
00:45:48now he was finally saying i can change
00:45:53too bad that change itself was proof he'd understood everything too late
00:45:58why did you bring me here
00:46:01chase has no sense of direction he doesn't know this place
00:46:04and
00:46:08i didn't get enough of that hug
00:46:12just a hug
00:46:14you want a kiss
00:46:16yeah
00:46:19will anyone come by
00:46:22no
00:46:25then kiss me
00:46:30this kiss felt completely different from that night at the hotel
00:46:34that night i was running out of one relationship
00:46:37this time i was walking into another
00:46:42let's make this official
00:46:44what
00:46:46you're my girlfriend now
00:46:49yes
00:46:51you're not running away tomorrow morning
00:46:53why would i
00:47:03we didn't announce it right away
00:47:05not because of chase
00:47:07i just didn't want anyone else's reaction deciding when my relationship began
00:47:12i didn't ask you to buy that
00:47:15i never said it was for you
00:47:22it's still not official
00:47:24they think we're blind
00:47:30i haven't talked to madison again
00:47:34you don't need to report that to me
00:47:37i deleted the forum post
00:47:39and told the school i was the one who made it
00:47:41you should have
00:47:43i didn't know you'd really leave
00:47:45that's the problem
00:47:47what if i'd known
00:47:49then you wouldn't have done it
00:47:55chase it's not that you didn't know it would hurt me
00:47:58you just thought i'd stay after you hurt me
00:48:01i used to melt over one soft sentence from chase
00:48:04now i just wanted the conversation over
00:48:06because someone else was waiting to have dinner with me
00:48:11no ex no bet no secret photos
00:48:16once we actually started dating
00:48:20i realized a relationship didn't have to be on fire all the time
00:48:30it's too expensive
00:48:32take it out of the 2400 and emotional damages
00:48:35that's my money
00:48:36exactly so i didn't pay for it
00:48:39buy it
00:48:40i know you've wanted this book for three years
00:48:43and somehow someone had remembered what i liked for three years
00:48:51you waited three years you seriously never liked anyone else
00:48:56i dated
00:49:02you asked if i liked anyone
00:49:05oh
00:49:06jealous
00:49:08no
00:49:10then why are you squeezing my hand that hard
00:49:16i'm not a saint
00:49:18i thought about giving up
00:49:21why didn't you
00:49:25every time i was almost over you
00:49:27you'd do something that made liking you feel slightly less stupid
00:49:31like what
00:49:34like kicking a guy out of the club for harassing a freshman
00:49:46that's it
00:49:49like agreeing to go on a date with me today
00:49:57if the first 20-something episodes were a war
00:50:00this was probably where the audience finally got to breathe
00:50:12i didn't get some dramatic movie version of karma
00:50:18madison just had to face real consequences for what she did
00:50:27happy now
00:50:30i didn't give you the punishment
00:50:33if you withdraw the complaint
00:50:34i won't
00:50:39chase doesn't want me either
00:50:41what else do you want from me
00:50:46this has nothing to do with chase
00:50:48how do you still not get it
00:50:50the worst thing you did wasn't steal my boyfriend
00:50:52you secretly photographed me and tried to sell my privacy
00:50:59stop explaining your whole life through men
00:51:08done
00:51:09yeah
00:51:12want to celebrate
00:51:14no i just want food
00:51:16perfect cheaper
00:51:28some wins don't come with applause
00:51:31sometimes winning just means
00:51:33the thing that once made you afraid to go back to your own dorm
00:51:37is finally over
00:51:40come on girlfriend
00:51:44when are you two finally going public we've been pretending not to notice for two weeks
00:51:49keep pretending
00:51:51she's shy
00:51:53who's shy
00:51:56we didn't have the thrill of secret dates
00:51:59just lots of ordinary little things
00:52:04somehow
00:52:05that ordinary feeling was what first made me believe a relationship could actually last
00:52:32you're not replying
00:52:35no need
00:52:37three months ago
00:52:38one what are you doing from chase could make my whole day
00:52:43now his long apology wasn't even worth reading twice
00:52:50why do you always wear women's clothes
00:52:53because my legs look good
00:52:58don't ask
00:52:59it's a whole disaster
00:53:02do you know how miserable he was freshman year
00:53:05what kind of blackmail material are we talking about
00:53:07for six months
00:53:09for six months he took the long way past your classroom building every day
00:53:13just to accidentally run into you
00:53:22he liked me for three years
00:53:42he liked me for three years
00:53:50what did he tell you
00:53:54that you used to take the long way just to see me
00:54:01why didn't you ever tell me
00:54:04tell you what and make things weird between you me and chase
00:54:07you
00:54:08what about now
00:54:11now you're mine
00:54:13i mean my girlfriend
00:54:16almost slipped
00:54:39done pretending
00:54:43let me officially introduce her
00:54:46my girlfriend riley carter
00:54:54three months ago this same group watched chase put his arm around madison
00:54:58while all the pity landed on me
00:55:02now i finally understood none of those looks mattered
00:55:15you two are officially together
00:55:17yeah
00:55:19since when
00:55:21none of your business
00:55:25i just want to know if i still have a chance
00:55:31you did
00:55:33when
00:55:34before you kissed madison
00:55:36before you bet on me
00:55:39before every time you hurt me because you were sure i'd always come back
00:55:44you always had a chance
00:55:46you're the one who let it expire
00:55:53what if i really change now
00:55:56then be better to your next girlfriend
00:55:59riley
00:56:02stop treating becoming better like a bartering chip to get me back
00:56:10going home
00:56:12yeah
00:56:15really moving on isn't about how good it feels
00:56:18to watch someone regret losing you
00:56:22it's when they finally regret it and you can't even be bothered to watch
00:56:30what did he say
00:56:31what did he say he wanted me to consider recycling an expired product
00:56:35you considered it for three seconds sorting trash is too much work
00:56:42you're not jealous
00:56:44i am
00:56:46could have fooled me
00:56:52i just don't need to grab you
00:56:53check your phone
00:56:54or control who you see
00:56:57to prove you're mine
00:57:01if you stay
00:57:03it should be because you want to
00:57:09that made me feel safer than hearing i'll never leave you
00:57:13noah i want us to still be together after graduation
00:57:16once the countdowns secret photos and fights were over
00:57:20life finally slowed down
00:57:23why are you taking so many
00:57:26keeping them
00:57:27you look like another stalker photographer
00:57:31i have permission
00:57:35we started arguing about normal things
00:57:38who forgot to answer an email
00:57:40who let takeout get cold
00:57:47who topped up the cat cafe account again
00:57:58you two have to spend the rest of this before graduation
00:58:02he didn't come here to make crafts he was buying my time
00:58:06worked pretty well
00:58:09so you were chasing me from the beginning
00:58:11i admitted that
00:58:13way too late
00:58:15still didn't miss my chance
00:58:17without a countdown life suddenly got slower
00:58:20and somehow i loved the quiet of not having anyone rush me into a choice
00:58:24noah left this for you
00:58:31are you insane
00:58:34souvenir
00:58:36this thing is ugly enough to count as evidence that should be destroyed
00:58:42that was the day you first asked if i was chasing you
00:58:46so
00:58:47so i kept it
00:58:51noah remembers details i'd forgotten myself
00:58:55at first i thought that was one of his best qualities
00:58:59then i realized it also made him almost impossible to beat in an argument
00:59:06you still have that recording from your apartment don't you
00:59:11noah hayes
00:59:13legally speaking it's evidence
00:59:14delete it
00:59:18delete it
00:59:20you delete it
00:59:28i know i know i want you noah i won't deny it tomorrow
00:59:32never mind
00:59:35can't let go of it
00:59:37just a reminder that my judgment used to be terrible
00:59:41it still is
00:59:45but that night
00:59:47i was very grateful for your bad judgment
00:59:51after graduation we both got job offers and started figuring out where to live
00:59:58my office is in cambridge yours is downtown you should live somewhere in between
01:00:07near the cat cafe
01:00:09do you love cats or do you love the owner's membership card
01:00:13i love the employee who taught me how to make cat toys
01:00:20three months ago i thought staying with someone long term meant losing my freedom
01:00:25later i realized a good relationship doesn't tie two people down
01:00:30it lets them keep choosing each other
01:00:37the kitchen's too small
01:00:39the bedroom's big enough
01:00:40your priorities are extremely consistent
01:00:43practical
01:00:50not looking
01:00:52not interested
01:00:53the person who used to control my mood for an entire day
01:00:56was now just one group chat notification i couldn't be bothered to open
01:01:06want to try it
01:01:09why are you studying that ad so seriously
