I was always close to the Jacks, Sammy and Big Mike, since middle school. My best friends Laine, Emily and I hung out with them every weekend. We meshed into one big group and grew closer throughout high school. I was extremely close with Jack Gilinsky, he was my best guy friend, there for me for whatever I needed, whenever I needed.

Things started to change senior year of high school when Jack and Jack got famous off of vine and began making music and touring. Sammy by association became well known and started venturing into music. Soon enough, they were making plans to move to LA after high school, while the rest of us were going to college. Emily was going off to Michigan, while Laine, Mike and I were planning to go to University of Nebraska in Lincoln. Sammy would be touring here and there, but was planning to stay in Omaha for awhile.

Our group dynamic changed when Nate Maloley, a guy we went to high school with who was a year older began hanging out with us towards the end of senior year. He was an aspiring rapper and began making music with Sammy. It was no secret Nate had a crush on me, he was very straightforward about it. I wasn’t sure how I felt about Nate, I just knew him as the guy with tattoos who rapped.

The guys liked Nate, well each of them but Jack. They had some weird tension, I didn’t want to get involved. However, I would find out soon enough I was already involved and always would be.
