Onward Scenarios

When he gets jealous

“I better go say hi to auntie.” Luke said, waving as he went into the house. 

“You okay?” You asked with a smile.

“Yeah, yeah.” Ian said, brushing his hoody down, “I don’t know why, I was thinking Luke was our age.”

“Really?” You gave Ian a curious look when a thought came to you, “Oh! I think you were thinking of Lucas!”

“Oh!” It clicked. That must have been it! Lucas was one of your guy friends you had told him about before. That must be who he was thinking about. 

“Wait,” You said looking at him, “Were you jealous?”

“What?” Ian asked, his voice cracking as he looked away and cleared his throat, “Me? W-why would I be jealous?”

You couldn’t help smiling as you put your hands on his shoulders, “Well, I’m glad you weren’t jealous. Cause there’s no reason for you to be jealous since you’re the only one for me.”

You gave him a quick peck on the cheek, making him blush and smile. 

“You’re the only one for me too.” He said, kissing your forehead. 

Barley: 

He knew you knew this guy from New Urban, but he didn’t remember how you knew him. However, Barley did know he wasn’t thrilled with how much this guy made you laugh. You two were snickering over some joke, something about unicorns and sprinkles, and Barley had to admit it. He was jealous. 

He had stopped by the cafe you were working at, he was all set to surprise you, but he was the one surprised to see you laughing with some guy he didn’t know. When you introduced them you introduced Barley as your boyfriend, which did make him feel a little better, but all he knew was this guy's name was Corey. 

A customer walked in, you greeted them before turning to the guys, “I’ll be right back.”

“So,” Barley said, turning to Corey, “Have you known (Name) long?”

“Oh yeah,” Corey grinned, “We’ve known each other our whole lives!”

Well that didn’t make him feel any better. 

“That’s great!” Barley said, trying to smile. 

“Yeah,” Corey replied, “There was this one time when we were kids…”

Barley listened as Corey told him stories about your childhood. He had very mixed feelings about it. He was happy to hear about it, but at the same time he wished he could have been the one there to make the memories with you. 

“Oh oh!” Corey continued, “Then there was the time (Name) and Dad pranked Mom!”

“Wait, (Name) and your dad pranked your mom?” Barley gave him a confused look. 

Why would you team up with your friend's dad to prank his mom?

“Oh yeah!” Corey laughed, “Uncle Luke was a perfect distraction for them.” 

Wait, wasn’t one of your brothers named Luke?

“What’s your dads name?” Barley asked, suddenly realizing who he was talking to. 

“Walter, but everyone calls him Walley.” Corey replied, “Why?”

Barley felt so dumb in that moment. This guy he was jealous of was the oldest son of your oldest brother. Your nephew! You two were close in age cause your brother was fifteen years older than you and he was a young father. 

As if realizing something had just clicked for Barley, Corey started laughing. 

“You didn’t realize I was her nephew, did you?”

“I’m sorry.” Barley said, feeling a little embarrassed. 

“Oh, don’t be.” Corey said, still laughing, “I can’t tell you how many times people thought we were dating back in school.” 

“Really?” Barley asked.

“Yeah, in grade school everyone thought we were siblings. Then once we got in junior high it went from siblings to dating. I can’t tell you how many girlfriends got jealous when they first met her, all cause they assumed.” Corey said, playfully nudging Barley. 

“In my defense,” Barley said, “I forgot how big your family is.”

“Don’t worry about it.” Corey grinned, “And you don’t need to worry (Name), all she ever talks about is you.”

“Really?” Barley asked, a little surprised about that.

“Oh yeah! And I won’t tell her you got jealous.”

“Thanks man.” Barley smiled. “So tell me more about this pranking she did.”
