"Y/N has a new boyfriend" Declan spoke and silence was the response he received. Mason felt his heart skip a beat and then fall to the floor, causing Mason to get a lump in his throat.

He just stared at Dec, trying to swallow the food he had put in his mouth before hearing the news. It took a lot of effort to swallow.

"I'm not hungry anymore" Mason pushed the plate away, feeling the strange sensation in his stomach, the same feeling that kept him awake at night.

Lauren looked at him with pity and Mason felt like an idiot. Declan cleared his throat, realizing he shouldn't have told Mason the news, but what could he do if you were friends with him and Lauren too?

"Sorry mate, I shouldn't have said that" Declan apologized to Mason, but he shrugged it off, not placing the blame on Declan.

"Who is the guy?" Reece asked, because after all he is also your friend. The restaurant seemed silent with the awkward atmosphere that remained at the table and Mason just stared at the plate he barely touched.

"David. They work together" Lauren spoke and Mason looked at her, but Lauren was already looking at him waiting for Mason's reaction. Mason looked down and felt everyone's eyes on him, Dec, Lauren, Ben, Reece, Aimee and Henry.

Mason felt like he was a bomb about to explode and everyone wanted to see the moment it happened.

"Sorry guys, I'm going home" Mason got up quickly and without looking at his friends, 'cause he already knew that everyone noticed how affected he was by the news that you were dating, but he didn't want to see the pity in everyone's eyes. "Declan, pay my portion and I'll give you the money later."

Mason left the restaurant quickly, but he heard Aimee's heels behind him and he sighed, knowing he wouldn't be able to outrun the stubborn woman running after him.

"Mase, wait-" she called him, and Mason only stopped walking when he felt the cold air on his face, needing some fresh air. "Hey."

"I can't take this anymore, Aimee. I can't" Mason's voice was cracked, and the state he had been in for almost two months was deplorable. "She left me in the shit."

Mason knows that Aimee is your best friend and he knows that you two talk daily, but he needs to talk to someone 'cause Mason feels like at any moment he will reach his breaking point.

His eyes filled with tears, and he was looking out into the cold night but Aimee could see his eyes were wet.

"I'm so sorry, Mase. I tried to talk to her about it but she won't let me" Aimee hugged Mason from the side, putting her arms around his shoulders, even though he was taller than her.

Mason looked at her devastated, and Aimee felt her own heart ache at the sadness on Mason's face.

"I really can't take this anymore, it's too much for me, Aim" Mason sighed and brought his hands to his face, because he still felt his heart tighten in his chest, he wasn't hungry and he felt like he could vomit 'cause of the emotions that were going through him.

He missed you.

He was sad.

He was alone.

And you left.

"You know you can talk to all of us, right? We're your friends, Mason, and you can run to us whenever you need to. You don't have to deal with all of this alone" Aimee held his hand and Mason nodded, but he knew Aimee had been busy lately because she was planning her own wedding with Henry, but she was so nice that she offered to be Mason's support since you left.
