Ever since Halo found out, he never looked at Skeppy the same. He never meant to see that contact name. He kept quiet since then.
"Good morning Skeppy." Halo smiled fondly, 'just keep smiling.', Halo thought. Skeppy smiled, though Halo knew that the smile he put on was fake, very fake. "I made breakfast, after finishing eating would you please clean the dishes, ill be going to my classes." Halo said, still smiling, "Oh, sure, take care and good luck on your classes !" Skeppy said, yet again putting up a falsely smile. Halo got his keys and other stuff for his classes. Opening the door and just one foot outside, Halo heard Skeppy sigh and mumbled something about him finally leaving.
Halo walked down the stairs of the school, just one more class. Halo texted Skeppy earlier to meet him at the cafe. He hasn't seen the text but Halo didn't mind. He knew what he was doing, Halo sighed. He wanted to cry right there on the spot. Why couldn't he just break up with Skeppy after he found out he was cheating ? Was he really that eager for love, gosh how pathetic of him. Halo started walking to his next class. Angrily.
After class finished, he checked if Skeppy saw the message. Nothing. Delivered for and hour, Halo sighed and walked to the cafe they were meeting up at. He took his time since he knew that Skeppy probably wont see the message after 20 minutes or so.
Arriving at the cafe, he ordered what he wanted. "Someone will be coming soon, please save the seat for him." Halo said softly to the pink haired barista, he nodded hesitantly. Halo went to sit on the table and drank a small amount of his coffee. He stared at the window and after 23 minutes, Skeppy responded, apologizing that he had seen his message so late, and saying he was coming over soon. Halo stared at the text, apathetically.
Halo waited more, he heard the cafe door open and by the sound of the steps he knew it was Skeppy without looking up and continued to stare at his hands. He fidgeted with it, clicking his nails together and making noises, he smiled at that a little.
"So sorry I was late, I was busy." Skeppy said as he sat down, Halo smiled, "Its alright." He said. "So uh why did you want to meet up here ?" Skeppy asked, Halo tensed up, should he say the truth ? Should he say what he wants to say, what should he do now, he was freaking out, then the pinked haired barista came and placed down Halos strawberry cake and muffin. "Sorry it took long." He said, Halo smiled at him and reassured that is was alright, then he left, Skeppy chuckled, "Is that for me ?" Skeppy smiled, almost going for the strawberry cake. Halo, swiftly and softly, stopped his hand. "No, I wanted to talk to you about something important." Halo said, still smiling but it was small. Skeppy turned tensed, "Yeah,,?", he retreated his hand.
"I want to break up." Halo softly said, smiling, which turned a bit up. Skeppy widened his eyes then blinked, "Wha- why ? You're joking, right ? C'mon Halo,,?" Skeppy choked on his words, Halo shook his head. "Its no joke, I-", Halo stopped his words, should he say he found out that Skeppy was cheating ? No, he cant. Yes, he can. No, yes ? Yes or mo ? Choose. His head was spinning, why did he arrange this meeting if he himself does not have the courage to say or do anything. He looked up at Skeppy and smiled apologetically.
"I just think that maybe we,,aren't meant to be together y'know ?" Halo said, brows furrowed. "No I-I don't know ! Halo please why ?" Skeppy was now sounding like he was begging, but begging for what exactly. "We are very different, we have different thoughts on many things and,,we alw- sometimes get into,,fights that aren't really important. You also,,,were,,,just very different. I noticed, you were always doing things that I normally dont like,,and I just didn't want to seem as a person who is very "irritated" by the things you do." Halo said, slowly yet fast. Skeppy gulped, Halo could see that he wasn't sad or whatever, he was so close to grinning but he managed to stop himself, Halo wasn't surprised. "Alright. I'll pack my stuff and I'll move out." Skeppy got up and left. Halo sat there, alone, silently, sadly, guilty ? What was he feeling now, he felt a sudden feel of joy yet sadness, yet scared ? Halo took a bite of his strawberry cake and looked at the window, leaning a bit to see Skeppy. He was calling just beside the cafe, smiling, grinning, like he had just won a lottery. Halos eyes started to swell up but he stopped himself, he continued eating and drinking.

Techno couldn't stop thinking about Halo, he kept glancing at him, completely forgetting about the strawberry cake and muffin he ordered. He then saw a guy come in, "Hey, has a guy named Halo come here ?" he asked, Techno realized that this must be Halos,,date ? Techno was disappointed, realizing that this might be the first and last time he would fall in love with someone. "Yeah, he's sitting over there." Techno responded. He nodded his head and went towards Halo, he then went to tell the bakers for a strawberry cake and muffin.
