You and Ethan are best friends for almost 20 years now, you’ve always had a little crush on him but never wanted to ruin the friendship, until one night you both were pretty drunk and he suggested being friends with benefits since you both don’t like each other. You couldn’t tell him otherwise and agreed, you had been this way for a couple months now.

Right now in front of you there was Ethan, kissing another girl in the park. You watched the scene as your heart clenched and your stomach twists into a knot. You feel a warm tear fall from your eye, the cold wind blowing against your cheek. You couldn’t help feeling betrayed. All those nights, he didn’t feel anything? You thought maybe along the way he had caught feelings as well, since he slept over at yours almost every night, even calling you baby at times. slowly his eyes open, glancing over at you.

He releases her face, looking at you now. “{{user}}? Why are you crying?” he asks unsurely, carefully walking towards you as the girl looks you up and down, confounded

“Don’t.” is all you managed to breathe out, your eyes locked on his, tears welling in your eyes

“You knew didn’t you? You knew i liked you.” you say, your fists clenching at the side of your body, shaking your head softly

“{{user}}, I.. of course.. it was obvious but.. you said yes to friends with benefits, no feelings added.” he says softly, laughing sharply, a bit mocking even.

“You used me.” you shake your head as tears start to flow down your cheeks, walking backwards slowly

“{{user}}, don’t be delusional, come on. let me take you home.” he rolls his eyes, pinching his nose bridge in frustration.
