Thank you for 10k reads D:

My heart wrenched guiltily as I trudged along the now-empty streets. I knew there was no way that Ranboo was going to forgive me, let alone talk to me. Maybe he would be walking next to me if I got to finish my sentence. I had wanted to tell him that I enjoyed the kiss, but because I didn't finish talking, he got the wrong message. I'm so stupid.

I wanted to go find him again, but I knew he would push me away. I fucked up badly.

The 20 minute walk felt longer than ever. As soon as I stepped through the front door, Tubbo walked up to me. He wrapped me in a hug, seeing my tear-stained face. "I'm so sorry," he mumbled. I let out a muffled sob into his shoulder.

"It's all my fault," I sobbed.

"No it's not, Iris, I'm sure he's just having a bad day," Tubbo comforted.

"You don't understand, Tubbs, it is my fault. I unknowingly led him on. Then he got really hurt by it, and I tried to fix everything but I made it worse. I'm such a fucking jerk for doing what I did," I explained, tears spilling down my face and onto Tubbo's sleeve.

I hope Ranboo's okay.

After I pulled away from the hug, we sat in silence for a few minutes before I spoke again, my voice barely audible. "I'm going to my room," I told Tubbo, standing up and walking away.

I let my door slam shut before throwing myself on my bed, melting into a puddle of guilt as I curled up on my side. Tears flowed down my face as I let my thoughts run wild.

He might not come back, and it's all my fault.

I've just ruined the best friendship I've ever had.

I miss him already. I miss his hugs. I miss his smile. I miss his voice.

Tubbo pov

I was sitting at the kitchen table when my phone buzzed. Looking at it, I saw a message from Phil.

Hey Tubbo, I just passed Ranboo a little while ago

Tubbo

You did? Where is he?

Dadza

He was at the park that's close to your house, he looked pretty upset about something

Tubbo

Thank you so much

I quickly put my phone in my pocket and slid on my shoes before running out the front door, heading towards the park. I hope he's still there.

After about 10 minutes of running, I reached the park. I stopped for a moment to catch my breath before beginning my search.

Ranboo pov

Tears chased each other down my face as intrusive thoughts fought in my mind. I held my knees closer to me, hiding my face in them. I shouldn't have trusted her so much. I knew I was just gonna get rejected from the beginning. Nobody ever likes me enough to want to be more than friends. I wish we-

A gentle tap on my shoulder interrupted my thoughts, causing me to flinch. I looked up, seeing Tubbo, and quickly tried to wipe my tears away.

"Thank god I found you, I was really worried," Tubbo said, kneeling down beside me.

We sat in silence for a few moments. I knew Tubbo was just trying to let me calm down a little bit before he would try to convince me to go back to the house.

"Hey Ranboo, do you wanna go back to the house now? You don't have to see Iris, or talk to her, but I just wanna make sure you're safe," Tubbo said, proving my point. I took a moment to think it over.

Honestly, I was kind of nervous to go back to the house. I didn't want to bump into Iris while passing through the hallway. Then again, I realized I was being kind of childish. I knew I had to go back eventually.

"Sure," I mumbled in response, standing up. Tubbo stood up as well and he began to lead me back to the house.

Tubbo unlocked the front door and stepped inside. I took a deep breath, trying to mentally prepare myself, before following him, shutting the door behind me. I kept my eyes locked on the ground as I followed Tubbo to the streaming room.

I heard the sound of the front door shutting and sat up, hoping it was Ranboo. I knew he didn't want to talk to me right now, but I wanted to make sure he got home safely, so I quietly opened my door, peeking my head into the hallway. Tubbo passed through the kitchen, shortly followed by Ranboo. Ranboo. He's safe. I smiled to myself for a moment as I gently shut the door, letting myself flop down into my bed seconds later.

I buried my face into my pillow, all the things I said today running through my head. Everything that could've gone wrong went very wrong. Regret filled my heart as I realized yet again that I most likely just ended our friendship.

All because I told him those three stupid words.

'I love you.'

~ Love you all :]

~ I might write a happy chapter soon. Might.
