“I’ve never had a best friend before, or been someone else’s best friend, and I know I’ll never be Dean’s because he’s married and his wife holds that spot, but I could be yours one day, Jake, and I know this sounds silly and you probably don’t get why this is a big deal for me, but I’ve really never had that before, not even when I was little, and I want that so bad. I want to be that person for you.”
