❝ BUT I GOTTA BE CAREFUL, GOTTA
WATCH WHAT I SAY. GOD I HOPE IT
ALL GOES AWAY ❞― ˗ˏˋ ♡ ˎˊ˗ ―
he smiles at her, painfully, appearing happy for her new relationship. she had liked him for a while, and she was glad to finally call him hers. he tries not to let the ache in his chest show on his face.
"this is the best day of my life." she says. he agrees because it's all he can do.
he watches as she walks away from him; her face no longer holding a smile, her eyes no longer sparkling and her voice no longer as happy.
"it's okay, he's just having an off day. he said work was stressful." she says. he agrees because that's all he can do.
he laughs as she cleans off the whipped cream on her nose from her drink. she tells him off, but can't help her own smile from shining, catching him almost off guard.
"you're such an idiot." she says. he agrees because that's all he can do.
he listens as she complains about her day, his name being the cause of her negative emotions. it pained him to not be able to hold her the way he wished, the way he was allowed to.
"i just wish he would show me once that he hears me when i talk to him." she says. he agrees because that's all he can do.
he watches from a distance as she laughs with him, her body leaning into his. his hand ruffles her hair, and he almost grimaces at the pang of jealousy that rushes through him at the sight of them.
she waves at him from the distance. he waves back because that's all he can do.
he silently cries when he sees her face stained with tears. a part of him is screaming at him to take her hand, to take her away from him, to free her from the rollercoaster of emotions he puts her through.
"it's fine, he just had a bad day, he didn't mean what he said." she says. he agrees because that's all he can do.
he feels his own heart soar when he hears her laugh. it always puts a smile on his face, and he can no longer deny his feelings for her. every day with her is a blessing, and he enjoys every second of her company.
"i'm so glad you're my best friend." she says. he agrees because that's all he can do.
he fakes a smile as she tells him they're moving in together. his heart screams out, to tell her now, before it's too late. to at least let her know, to make sure she definitely doesn't feel the same way. he doesn't acknowledge it.
"i'm so happy, it's going to be amazing waking up with him every morning." she says. he agrees because that's all he can do.
he races to open his apartment door, heart sinking as he sees her eyes red and puffy. he doesn't ask her to come in, but drags her inside and hugs her. she breaks down in his arms, yet he holds her the whole time.
she says nothing. he stays quiet, and hugs her tighter.
he doesn't react when she tells him that he proposed. she is grinning at him, across the table, happy and content. he manages a small smile, one that is enough to let her know that he is acknowledging the information. she shows him the ring on her finger.
"isn't it so pretty?" she says. he agrees because that's all he will ever be able to do.
