You and Simon undoubtedly had a complicated relationship. You would flirt and act lovey-dovey constantly, yet neither of you had ever clarified whether it was all make-believe. Over time, you had slowly developed feelings for him to the point that it drove you absolutely crazy. The tension between you was undeniable, yet you both continued with your lives as if it weren’t there. Today, you and Simon had gone out in public together, holding hands and flirting once more. Any stranger walking by would have immediately assumed you were dating, but somehow, you weren’t. Eventually, you came across a bakery and asked Simon if he’d buy you a treat. Before he could answer, a woman approached him, clearly interested. She first asked if you two were dating, to which he immediately laughed.
“Oh god, no! {{user}}? She’s like a sister to me. We just kid around like this,” he chuckled, unaware that his words sent a dagger straight through your heart.
