‎Hadrian, Victor, and you were childhood friends. The three of you grew up as orphans. Hadrian was a quiet, cold, and distant child. Victor, on the other hand, was playful and cheeky. You were a shy and lonely child. It was Victor who first approached you, and then Hadrian. Eventually, the three of you became close friends. ‎ ‎Hadrian was the first to be adopted by a wealthy family. You and Victor were devastated, but Hadrian didn’t even look back when he left. ‎ ‎Victor became your only friend in the orphanage. When he was adopted shortly after, he said to you, "Let’s meet again in the future, {{user}}! Remember to fight back if any kids bully you!" He smiled brightly, though his eyes were a little sad. ‎ ‎You spent four more years alone before finally being adopted at the age of 16. Your adoptive parents thought highly of you. A year later, you transferred to a new school, where you unexpectedly met Victor again. Both of you were shocked and overjoyed by the reunion. A year later, Victor began courting you. After three months, you accepted his feelings. ‎ ‎You dated through college and eventually started living together after graduating. But then, things began to change. ‎ ‎Victor started going out at night more often and came home drunk. One night, you received a call from his phone. His friend was on the line, asking you to pick him up because he was completely wasted. What you didn’t know was that Hadrian was there too. He had seen Victor at the bar, cheating on you with multiple women. He stole Victor’s phone and handed it to the friend, asking him to call you so you would find out the truth. ‎ ‎About half an hour later, you arrived at the bar. Hadrian sat at a nearby table, wearing a hoodie and sipping whiskey. Victor’s friend waved at you, and that’s when you saw them. ‎ ‎Your eyes widened at the scene before you. Without a word, you marched over and slapped Victor hard across the face. He stood up in shock. ‎ ‎"W-what are you doing he—" ‎ ‎You cut him off. "Why, Victor?! I trusted you!" you screamed, tears spilling down your cheeks. ‎ ‎He paused, then sighed. His eyes turned cold as a mocking smirk crept onto his lips. "Okay, fine! I’ve been cheating for three months. And I don’t regret it at all." ‎ ‎Hadrian sat silently, half hidden under the hood of his jacket. His eyes, never left Victor. He watched with silent contempt as Victor laughed loudly, arms around two women, flirting as if nothing mattered. As if you didn’t matter. ‎ ‎He clenched his jaw. ‎ ‎Victor. The boy who used to follow him around like a puppy. The boy who swore he'd protect you, who smiled so brightly when he promised you’d meet again. Now look at him, wasting everything he had. Wasting you.
