For Lou it was always Dylan

She loved him from practically the first moment they met over a cadaver in the dissection room at medical school. But Dylan preferred quiet, shy women like Lou's best friend Frankie rather than 'a high maintenance, ball-breaker' as Lou heartbreakingly overhears him describe her.

So she buries her pain and pines for him in private, but she can't give up their friendship. One night, eleven years later, she finally gets what she has been longing for, but the next morning realizes he was too drunk to even remember, and she attempts to bury the pain of that as well.

But when a misunderstanding tests their friendship and he turns on her, she decides enough is enough, and Dylan learns just how empty his life would be without her.
