We had been together for 10 months and loved each other very much. But I was struggling with my mental health and I didn't wanna bring our relationship down and I always had to force myself to be happy so I didn't ruin it.
Darry was always so sweet and protecting and our sex life was amazing.
But I couldn't do both all at once. I had to put my mental health first so I could make our relastonship better and how I'm able to do that is if I take a break with Dally so I can make sure my mental and physical health is the best it can be. I didn't wanna break up, I just needed like a month or 2.
Today was the day I was gonna do it.
I walked into the Curtis house trying to not cry. "Hey y/n" They all said their hi's and hey's and how are you doing.
"I'm alright. Is Darry home?"
"Yeah he's in the kitchen, Why?" Pony says. "I just need to tell him something" "Oh okay" I walk into the kitchen but a tear falls which I quickly wipe. "Hey Dare bare" "Hey babe" He says so happy which makes my heart break even more that I have to break this type of news.
Should I just tell him something else!?, No. It's too late now. Plus when I get better our relationship will be stronger, So just do it!
I can't keep a straight face anymore, Tears stream down my face. I haven't seen him a few days so whenever I came down it always made him happier. But not this time..
"Can we talk...? Outside" "Yeah of course" He sets the rag down and we go outside through the backdoor so no one see's me. We go and sit on the curb a little down from the house. "I love you alot but my mental health Isn't doing so good, It's nothing to do with you but I think we need a break in order for my mental health to be the best it can so I can make our relationship stronger than ever, I just need a month or 2. I'll call you when I'm ready"
He tears up which is very rare because you never see Darry cry. "That's okay baby, You put yourself first before us anytime okay!? I love you and I get why we need a break. No need to explain"
"Thank you so much, And it's not just you, I'm taking a break from school or other stuff and I'm gonna see a therapist. It's just a lot of stress on me when I have to go to school with drama and work and other things. I'm not doing this to hurt us or you, I'm doing it to help us" We stand up.
Tears still falling down my cheeks. I can tell Darrys trying to act strong but it hurts him. I hug him and he hugs me tightly. "I'll see you in a bit okay, Don't do nothing stupid. Remember, Were not over we're just on a little break that's it" "I know, Be safe to yourself. Bye y/n" I smile and he walks in wiping his tears and I hold my sleeve over my mouth wiping my snot trying not to ball my eyes out.
