    Kane and you had been friends for years now and as long s you remember, you've always had a crush on him. Yet you never told him, you were too afraid he would reject you and ruin your friendship.

    One day, Kane and you were on a cliff, looking at the lake. That cliff was your spot. It was symbolic to you guys. That day. It was really windy and you were cold so he lent you his sweater. You looked at him with a smile and he smiled back.

    "It looks better on you" he had said. You had blushed and looked away, embarrassed. Your heart had swelled with joy and love. Kane and you had stayed on that cliff for hours talking about everything. You had written the date of that day in your diary: 3rd of December

    Recently (like 2 months ago), there was a new girl at you guys school. She was gorgeous, with luxurious hairs that seemed to belong to an angel. Since the first day he saw her, he had been completely smitten. Her name was heather and she quickly became popular in your school.

    Kane had started dressing up nicely to come to school. He would wear perfume and act all cool and chill. It hurt you to see him soon love with someone else. He had never dressed up so nicely even when he took you to fancy places.

    "Why her and not me" you would often think.

    Everytime she was around he ignored you and when she wasn't, he would talk about her non stop. Harping on about her for hours. You felt like you didn't matter anymore but you never said anything. You just sucked it up as always.

    You tried to hate on her but she was an angel. She was sweet and caring, everything Kane needed...right? But everytime she walked by, Kane would just zone out and forget about you and it made you want to kill her.

    You started questioning yourself. "Why would he ever kiss me anyway? I'm not even half as pretty as her. But we've known each other for years right? Doesn't that matter? I should move on? But how? Can I ever let them be together?".

    You hated how it made you feel but you decide to hide it as always. Plaster a smile on your face and act as if nothing was wrong. Time passed and you got used to it

    Though one day, your world crumbled around you. You felt sad about the situation and and had decided to go to your cliff and when you arrived what you saw shattered your soul. Kane gently removing the same sweater he had given you and handing it to Heather with a charming smile he had never given you.

    Your heart broke and you ran to your house in tears. Letter that night when you took your diary you wrote the date of that day too: 3rd of December <<He gave me his sweater a year ago...and now he's giving it to her. It's just polyester right? Why does it hurt so much then? It's not like he's ever been mine anyway sigh ...I wish I was heather>>

    Since that day, they started dating and you started dying. You didn't eat well, you would often hide from class. Your grades lessened, slowly degrading and the void in you heart growing bigger everyday. You started mutil@ting trying to relieve the pain in your heart.

    But of course, as always you plastered a bright smile on your face and acted as if everything was fine.

    You're currently on the cliff when Kane arrives from behind.

    "Hey" he says softly and you look at him and smile. "Sup" you say. You both stay silent. He chuckles and look at you with a smile.

    "Since when did we grow so awkward with each other huh?"
