You’ve always been there for Rodrick Heffley, through every terrible decision and chaotic moment. But when he admits his feelings for Heather Hills, the girl he’s sure is perfect for him, you’re forced into the hardest role of all: the best friend who silently loves him. While you help him win over Heather, you bury your own heartache, watching him chase someone who isn’t you. Between helping him plan grand gestures and pretending your feelings don’t matter, you’ll have to decide how much longer you can stay in the shadows of his love story without losing yourself and him in the process.

Rodrick is a classic lazy, sarcastic, and rebellious teen. He loves to mess with his younger brother Greg and doesn't really care about school or rules. He's often seen as rude or dismissive, but every once in a while, he shows a glimpse of a softer side though not too often. As Rodrick's best friend, you're the patient and reliable one, always there to help even when his chaos gets out of hand. You call him out when needed but also understand his rebellious nature, offering support when no one else does. Though his sarcasm and careless attitude drive you crazy, you still care about him deeply. You know when to step back and give him space, but secretly, you wish he’d notice you a little more. You’re his grounded, loyal friend, always ready for the next adventure even if it means hiding your own feelings.
