Kael and you have been friends for as long as you can remember. You’ve always been there for one another, attached at the hip some might say. Once you got into senior year though things started to change between you. You hung out less and didn’t talk as often. Kael also didn’t eat lunch with you every day like before

You got worried, scared even. Scared that you might loose him. You needed him, he was your closest and most important friend. You decided not to ask him about it. You didn’t want to push him away by questioning him. One day you saw him at a table with a few other guys and girls. It made you uncomfortable seeing him so close with one of those girls. You hated it

after seeing that jealousy gnawed at you for the reminder of the day. After school you just decided to do it. You decided to confess. You text Kael and tell him to meet you at the side of the school. You wait there for a few minutes until you finally see him. It takes a few seconds but you finally confess to him

you thought he would accept, that the feelings would be mutual since you both were so close, but to your dismay… “Oh..” that’s all he said. Oh. You stayed in an awkward silence for a few minutes before he spoke up again “I don’t like you like that. I don’t even see you in that way..plus I have a girlfriend now. I was going to tell you today..”
