" hi y/n . " Jay said when you entered the house.
You stopped your tracks and your smile drops when you saw him sitting at the couch.
You didn't expect that you'll experience a rollercoaster of feelings today.
" What are you doing here ?" You asked , a bit annoyed . But then , why are you annoyed ? You wanted to see him right ?
" Y/n , I'm sorry. I'm sorry because I prioritized my athletic career over you. You know that I love basketball, right ? I hope you understand " he simply said , you can feel the sincerity in him.
You clearly understand how he dearly loves basketball. It's his childhood dream to be in the nationals and he badly wants to aim that spot. He had the opportunity so he grabbed it. But during the training season , he lost time for you. You barely meet or even talk. When he finishes his practice , he's all tired and can't contact you. You feel that he's ignoring you when you call , and whenever you come to his practice , he's always surrounded by his fangirls that you felt , unwanted and out of place. You distanced yourself from him so he could focus on his trainings because he needs it. That results for you to always fight over calls or chats and not resolving some misunderstandings and stuffs that you both got tired. You're a top student and the pressure of you being an athlete's girlfriend and being on dean's list stressed you out. You have to get out of that circle so you suggested break up. That time , you two fought because you got jealous at their cheerleader who's always with him so he was enraged and couldn't think right because he didn't do anything wrong. So he agreed with the break up right away. Maybe he's also tired of you being jealous always and he feels that you don't understand him. Actually your set up is so stressful but if you two just stayed and be strong for each other , you didn't broke up. Because Jay is the ideal boyfriend everyone could ever dream of.
" We're over Jay. " You said as you walked pass him but he held your hand and tried to hug you.
" Let me go !" You yelled then someone came and pulled you away from Jay.
" What the hell is your problem ?" Jay angrily said when Ni-ki took you away from him.
" No , what is your problem ?! Why are you forcing y/n?" He asks back with the same level of angriness.
You just stood there , still in Ni-ki's arms and couldn't move.
" She's my girlfriend what are you talking about ?" Jay spoke and Ni-ki froze.
Ni-ki looked at you with questions in his eyes. You couldn't make an eye contact with him even though what Jay just said is a lie . You two already broke up .
You could feel Ni-ki's fist are curling . A sign that he's infuriated . So you held both of his hands to calm him down. Actually you just don't want Ni-ki to be involved with your issue with Jay. But right now he's here . He's now involved.
" Is it true y/n? " You can tell that he's just forcing himself not to be emotional and you felt a heavy sting inside your heart. Now , all you wanted is to protect him at all cost .
" No , we already broke up Jay !" You said then looked at Jay .
Jay took a step back but remained in his composure. He felt defeated but wanted to win in any way.
" It's not yet final , y/n it's just 3 weeks . We can still start over. I know you still love me and I do too. Come back to me , I'll be a better boyfriend. I'll do anything you want. Just be mine again. "
You just looked at him . You're tempted. You didn't say anything. You're starting to get mesmerized by him again.
Ni-ki let go of you and starts running away. You wanted to follow him but then Jay starts to kiss you on your lips. You responded and you didn't know that Ni-ki looked back at you and witnessed everything.
Now , Ni-ki understands where he is in your life. He's just a friend and will remain as it is.
He knew he could never have a chance in you . He can't beat Jay. Because the latter is the exact opposite of him.
