The Perks Of Having An Older Brother

The Break up

" Michael, I think this is a bad time for us." I stated, tears welling up in my eyes. " Luke has been so distant to me lately and Ben has been short tempered with me and has been ignoring you."

"Yea Nix, I have noticed." Michael said, his voice quivering a little.

" Its not that i don't like you Mike, i really do, its just i... i... i think it would be easier for us to break up before our feelings get stronger or that you fall out with your friends if we get too serious. There could be a better time for us in the future but now is just not going to work."

" I agree mini Green, I do like you but my friendship with the guys and your friendship with Luke is way more important than anything we could have had." It was clear he mean't what he was saying, however his voice was a bit bitter and it make me feel somewhat uncomfortable.

We went in for a hug, showing that we both agreed with where we were at and Michael stepped away, slotting into his Toyota car before speeding off.

I plonked my bottom onto the grass, thinking over what all had just happened, yes i had like him for so long but my life has just become a hell of alot more complicated and i valued all of my friendships so much right now, with Logan and charlie's baby coming, graduation and my gran passing away I was grieving, cramming in school work and dealing with all Chars antenatal classes and scans, because Logan was 100 % useless.

With no time for myself, my head was a mess,i knew i had to get rid of something and easiest of all was breaking up with Michael. It was now May, we had been together since new years, even though that is quite along time, neither of us had yet said 'i love you' and honestly I wasn't sure if I felt that towards him, in a non friend way.

Now back at home

Now lying on my bed beside my 7 Month pregnant Best Friend, and the other best friend who knocked her up, I was explaining the events of earlier on that day.

" It was for the best you know? So much is happening to you right now and he wasn't doing a very good job of helping that. From what you had said, he was a horny mess and anytime you weren't up to do something he became bitter. Nix, you deserve so so so much better, like Luke or that kid Andrew from last years social class and you could always stay friends with Michael anyways."

Chars knows me so well and that was exactly what I needed to hear, Heck yea it was going to take little wile to get over him but there is someone better for me out there, I just haven't met them yet.
