It had been just under two weeks since Tom's hurtful words and... well, I was getting by.

The few weeks after were obviously shit and I was missing him even more than I was before our fight.

I mean, independent of the mean words, it was still a breakup. I had broke uo with my boyfriend of 3 and a half years

Maybe it would be better that way. Less stress and more time to do things that are actually useful.

I blink back tears in class, left in my own thoughts for too long and replaying the scene in my mind.

Then again it was exam week. I could do the exam with my eye closed; no problems.

But now, this was going to be difficult. It was like this breakup was eating me alive completely.

It was 3:56am and I couldn't sleep for the life of me. I decided to do what any sane person would do.

Get up, put my fluffy robe on, my bunny slippers on and go to the astronomy tower.

I walked slowly. There was no one awake.

It was like I was the only person in the world as I walked down the halls, the vibe tense as I reached the astronomy tower.

I sat down on the cold floor, leaning back onto one of the decorated walls.

And then it was just me, myself and I. Left in my thoughts. I didn't even feel lonely.

To be honest, I felt better when I was alone. Because I couldn't stand being with other people.

Like, I mean it when I say that this breakup took a toll on me. Everything was so perfect, it really was.

It was more because of how it happened. What he said, what I said, the argument, the end.

After about 5 minutes of even being at the astronomy tower, I feel a warm tear trickle down my face.

My lips quiver and I start silently crying, being my knees up to my face.

"Y/n?" I jump when I hear Tom's voice. It was soft when he said my name, I almost didnt hear it.

I look up and that's just when I give up. I dig my head into my knees, my whole body shaking as I sob.

I was trying to be as quiet as possible obviously, but a sob ripped out of me when I felt Tom pull my legs from my head and pick me up.

He places me on my lap and I'm too gone to even resist. I subconsciously place my head on his shoulder and cried

"I'm here, Y/n. I'm always here. Shhhh." I shake my head 'no' and move away.

"Y-You haven't been here! I'm just a problem remember? Waste of time." I say, my voice cracking and broken.

"No, babe don-"

"Don't call me that." I say, heart broken.

We argued at the astronomy tower, it was him trying to explain himself and me just sobbing and disagreeing.

We're not 'good' by any means, but my heart smiles a little when I wake up to tulips on my bedside table.
