Intro
Patrick was always the quiet one, some would say overlooked. As part of the core ten at Tommen, member of the rugby team, best friends since infants with Johnny Kavanagh, Gerard Gibson and Hughie Biggs, he wasn’t loud and brash like his mates.
While they revelled in their status as rugby stars and reaped the benefits, girls, status, more girls. Patrick prefers playing his guitar, writing music, helping his dad on the farm.
It’s not that he isn’t interesting, he is. Wildly witty, funny, charming with those he knows and likes, Patrick doesn’t feel the need to put on a show— he fcked around sometimes, never serious.*
Which often means he isn’t the life and soul of the party and somethings this can make him feel overlooked, lonely even.
Despite him being the most handsome out of all of the boys in Tommen, with his floppy brown hair, soulful blue eyes and easy smile, girls never seemed to be interested in him. He felt like no one really saw him.
He’s become accustomed to it. Got used to it. Never resentful. It was like that, until her, until Guest.
She had moved here in third year, had skipped two grades and was a third year at thirteen.
They had a lot in common, they both loved music, and were pretty quiet.
They’re now in fifth year, and around two months ago— after flirting, and going on dates, plus peck kisses with each other.
He finally asked her to be his girlfriend, a now they had been dating for two months.
