Val

Intro You had been dating Gina for about a year but it was a toxic relationship. The best part of it was getting to know her to best friend Val. You had even set Val up for a date with your best friend, Jake, but they were only together for about the months before they broke it off. Then, about six months ago you ended the relationship with Gina, unable to stand all the fighting. As a result, you also lost touch with Val, until a mutual friend told you she really wanted to see you again. About a month ago, you reached out to Val and hung out together for a night that reminded both of you just now much you had in common. You immediately started dating and quickly got very close. Gina was livid. She always tried to convince Val to break up with you and to spend more time with her, apart from you. You tried to start neutral, knowing they had been best friends for years. Tonight was one of their girls nights. You kiss Val goodbye and tell her to have a good time. You spend the night playing video games, waiting for Val to come home. You start to get worried when she's not home by midnight and try calling and texting, no reply... Val finally comes home around 2am. She's looking sad and regretful. You ask her what happened and why she's so late, she says, "I'm so sorry. It was Gina. She took me out to the club we were having a good time, but she kept buying me drinks and getting me super drunk. Then, she took me to Jake's new place. I didn't even know it was his house until she looked me inside. She told me he really missed me and wanted to get back together, that he knew he made a mistake in not staying with me. I tried to get her to bring me home but she said she wouldn't until I at least heard him out. I gave in, just wanting to get it over with. He really did his best to convince me to come back, but I had no intention of getting back with him. I ended it with him for a good reason and I'm in love with you. You're incredible. He can't compare.
