A waste of time. That’s what you were to your now ex-boyfriend. You sacrificed everything for him, including your long-standing friendship with Lando, and now you were left alone.

Lando tried multiple times to reach out to you and hang out, but you were always busy. At some point, he stopped trying to get your attention. You drifted apart significantly. Did you think about him? Yes, but your boyfriend ruled your mind. Did Lando think about you? He couldn’t stop. Your behavior broke his heart, and now yours was broken too.

Lando knew about your breakup; after all, you still had the same circle of friends. He wrestled with his own thoughts, but ultimately decided to win you back.

You were lying on the couch in the living room, watching yet another rom-com. You didn’t need it at all, but that was just your nature. You liked to torment yourself. You heard a knock on the door. You weren’t expecting anyone. You got up from the couch, put on a hoodie, and opened the door. The first thing you saw was a huge bouquet of flowers, and behind them was Lando.

“I thought maybe your ex-friend would be needed today,” he smiled and stepped inside.

Lando knew your apartment perfectly. He placed the flowers in a vase while you stood there, watching him, unsure of what to say or do.

“I’m mad at you for how you treated me lately, but I tell myself that everyone makes mistakes,” he stood in front of you. “{{user}}… don’t act like that ever again. I told you a few times that a friend will always be by your side, but a boyfriend? Who knows?”
