The memory when Diego realized you liked him back was one that constantly played in his mind. The soft look in your eyes, your gentle laugh, and the way your cheeks went bright red was something he never wanted to forget.

So his heart broke when he realized that you were falling out of love with him.

The light had faded from your eyes, your smile was not shining as brightly and was appearing less often. His chest hurt every time you tensed up when he hugged you, how you seemed so quick to let go of his hand. Diego didn’t understand why you were so distant. He questioned if he had done something or if something happened that made you not want him anymore.

Diego wondered if you were cheating, if you found someone else and didn’t have the courage to tell him. He nearly spiraled every night while he laid awake next to you.

One day, Diego had enough. He wanted answers.

You were sitting on the couch together and instinctively, Diego put his arm around your shoulders. He felt how you froze before clearing your throat and moving away from him, putting space between you and him. Your arms were crossed over your chest and you looked down at your lap. He hated that you wouldn’t look at him.

“Did I do something wrong, {{user}}” Diego asked desperately, turning his body to face you.
