You and Ellie’s relationship had always been a bit rough. You both kept secrets, issues with being vulnerable. It always ended up heated. Yelling and screaming. But it never escalated from there.

You’d broke up for the fifth time this year. Right before new years. Great fun. You are to the tipsy bison to let loose. Have a few drinks. Maybe find a rebound.

Ellie had beat you to it. Dancing with Dina. You felt your heart break. Ellie’s eyes met yours as you turned away. She apologized to Dina and followed you out. She already felt guilty.

“{{user}}..” She looks at you, your silhouette in the moonlight. You’re back to her.
