Ed, Eddy n Eddy One-shots

Mutual Feeling

Eddy's POV
-
I was off work that day, remembering how it happened earlier this month. I wish I had forgotten via drinks or something. I had messaged Ed as to why he had put up with me. I got way more than an answer. Something I didn't think I'd hear from him. The fact it was via text hurt me more than not.

He told me he liked me more like a brother and not so much of a romantic partner. He apologized, but I knew this was all for nothing. The past two months were wasted on not feeling anything.

He said he understood and I was loved, but not by him. I get it, in all honesty. I didn't want to ruin our friendship, but I told his brother that I didn't really feel anything with this. We were still friends, sure, but I didn't understand why this was a thing. Why this was a feeling.

We haven't hung out since then, being a little over fifteen days ago. Still, I swallowed by pride, but I had still cried in my room when I was alone. It hurt that we couldn't try to make this work. I mean, I didn't love him, but it was gonna be what it was gonna be. I just really hope he didn't hate me because of something so stupid. We took a spark and ran with it.

That spark ran out quicker than we enticipated, though. We didn't know it wouldn't really last or blossom into something more. This is gonna be weird when we see each other again, I think. I'm cool with being by myself, but I don't know if I really care now. I'm pretty sure it depressed him, but he's the one who broke up with me via text.

At the end of it all, after the smoke cleared, we still saw each other as family, as siblings, even though we weren't related. I had got to know him more than what I did the past few years I've known him.

I'm not sure if he'd even want to hang out with me, let alone just forget it ever happened. If he felt more, he's the king of not telling anyone anything. It didn't help that I did get into a fight with him via text while we were both at work.

He said something to his transgender friend that, basically, a bunch of religious related stuff that I'm not going into. He was more Christian now than he was when he was younger. I even apologized via text for what I said after I unfriended him on social media and blocked his number.

Still, only the days ahead will tell what happens if we hang out again or not. Most likely, we won't, but we won't know until it actually happens.
