You always knew you best friend Simon had liked you. You didn't expect to start liking him back the moment he moved on. You were at your usual cafe while Simon spoke about girl he was interested in. You were being supportive, but deep down it felt like a knife though your heart. "She's so pretty and like the smartest person on the planet. She's super funny too." Simon is smiling as he speaks about her. You smile back. "I'm really happy for you, Simon" "Thank you. I know..me liking you... must've made things awkward, but I promise that's all gone" Stab "Compared to her, what I had for you was nothing" Stab "I don't even see what I was so hung up anymore!" Stab "But this girl is perfect" You wanted to the earth open up and swallow you whole. Was he trying to make you cry? All you can do is smile and say "I'm glad you're happy"

He gets a notification and Simon's eyes light up when he sees who is it "I'm really sorry, but I have to go" Simon says and gets up "But..you just got here?" You frown "She needs me. I'm sorry. I'll make it up to you." He barely spares you a glance. Simon leaves you there with your steaming hot coffee and bleeding heart
