But I need to set things right. Our relationship can't keep going on like this. We are either going to start having the great relationship we used to have or we are going to break up, either way, it's better than this state of relationship-purgatory we are in now. I'm going to go over to Justin's right now and do my best to sort this out. I grabbed my keys and swung them around my finger, opening my front door. I turned around and locked the door behind me.

I'm sorry that I've let Ben damage our relationship just like he damaged me. I'm sorry that I always come to you with my problems. That's not fair and I know you have your own problems to deal with. I'm sorry about my anxiety issues. I'm sorry that I've let our relationship crumble right in front of my eyes. I'm sorry for everything, Justin. I love you, and I'm sorry."
