prompt: the title says it all or me feeling all shitty because this reminds me of my ex.

Troye had this thought on his head for the month he had been dating Connor. He was happy that they were a thing but it just didn't feel right? He didn't feel right. Troye felt like absolute shit every day but had to put a smile on his face and fake everything. He didn't love himself and he knew that, he knew he couldn't love himself and that he couldn't love anyone. Not even Connor.

"Baby..." Connor said as he smiled with his teeth as he played with Troye's hand.

"Connah..." Troye sighed softly as he glanced at his boyfriend who seem so happy.

"I can't believe we're actually y'know... dating" Connor giggled as he now played with Troye's curls.

"You're just so beautiful" Connor admired the blue eyed boy as he sighed happily.

If only he knew...

Troye felt like shit. He honestly knew Connor didn't deserve someone who was faking everything he said to him. Those 'I love you' and those cheesy things he said to him... meant nothing.

"I love you and we've said this a bazillion times but... we've said I love you since we were best friends but now I mean it" Connor glanced at Troye who looked so deep in thought.

"Babe?" Connor poked Troye's shoulder making him jump.

"Are you okay? You seem... off" Connor sighed as he saw how his boyfriend sat down in Connor's bed.

"I... Yeah yeah I'm fine" Troye faked a smile as he kissed his boyfriend lips.

"Andrea... I have to tell him soon" Troye broke down as he was hugging his best friend, Andrea.

"W-we've been together for almost 3 months and I feel nothing!" Troye kept sobbing as his best friend watched him in shock.

"Troye!" Andrea gasped as she felt Troye shake in her arms.

"I feel nothing!" Troye said again as he felt Andrea hugging him closer.

"Troye... Shhhh shhhh it's okay" Andrea felt how Troye lifted his head from his shoulder and looked at her.

"I'm hurting him and I just can't do this anymore" Troye sighed sadly and stood up.

"You have to tell him... you need to tell him, Tok" Andrea hugged Troye one more time and gave him a comforting smile.

"When did I get so lucky?" Connor grinned as he watched the sunset with Troye.

"I... Con..." Troye played with his curls nervously as he glanced at Connor.

"I'm the lucky one... I love you" Troye couldn't utter the words as he saw how content Connor looked.

"Oh shut up, baby. I am the lucky one... Who knew?" Connor giggled softly as he squeezed his boyfriend's hand.

Troye couldn't take it anymore. He couldn't lie to someone he cared about so much. It's been 5 months now and Troye couldn't take it. He still felt nothing and he lied and lied and lied. Connor believed all those stupid lies.

"... I just want you to know that I... love you and I have noticed how you've behaved lately and I'm... worrying" Connor bit his lower lip as he saw Troye tearing up.

"I can't take it anymore!" Troye yelled as he stood up from the bench they were sitting on.

"Wait... Troye..." Connor felt confused at the outburst of his boyfriend.

"I... Con... Connah. I don't love you" Troye watched Connor's grin turn into a frown and then he saw how the beautiful boy started tearing up.

"Y-you lied to me?!" Connor collapsed on the floor as Troye placed his hand on his shoulder.

"Get away from me!" Connor scooted far from Troye as he couldn't stop the tears from spilling.

"You lied to me! You lied to me for 5 months? You said I love you... You" Connor couldn't finish his sentence as he felt like he couldn't breathe.

"Go away! Go go go! I don't want to see you ever again!" Connor screamed his lungs out as Troye teared up seeing how affected Connor was.

"Don't ever talk to me! Leave!" Connor put his head down as he heard Troye once again trying to comfort him.

"Connah... please.. I'm sorry. I just... I don't love myself, Connah. I act like I am totally okay but I'm not. I do realize that I messed things up and you don't deserve this. I care so much about you, Con" Troye tried to hug Connor but he felt strong arms pulling him away.

"For 5 months, Troye. For 5 months you said you loved me and it was fake... Thank you for breaking my heart" Connor stood up abruptly as he started running away.

'What a great way to start Valentine's Day' Troye thought as he stood up and walked home.

A/N: I'm sorry... that's all I have to say.
