You and Niki have been friends for almost 12 years. Ever since you guys were little kids, you always got along, everything was perfect for you guys.

Until, you both went to college, you guys were still close. You would often visit each other's houses and hang out like you guys always do when you were kids.

Slowly, you grew mature and your feelings for Niki grew too. You didn't confess yet as he was giving mixed signals and you were afraid that those signals were just him being friendly.

But when he got a girlfriend, it answered all your questions. So, it was all just friendly gestures, he was never interested in you. When he revealed he found someone, your world crumbled down into pieces before your eyes as he started hanging out with his girlfriend more than you.

One day, you were chilling in your house before hearing a soft knock on your door. You quickly walked over to the door and swung open it, it's was Niki.

Before you could speak up, he spoke first, "hey, can you return me my jacket now? I need it for my date later" he huffed, not looking up from his phone, like you were a stranger to him.
