Jacks POV

After about an hour of just sitting outside, in the dark, in the rain, I finally stood up to unlock the door. When I got in I slowly took off my coat and shoes and made my way to mine and Fe's shared room. When I opened our bedroom door I saw Felix sitting on the edge of the bed with his head in his hands.

"Seán!? Where the hell have you been!? I was worried sick!! And now you just walk in here soaked in rain water and, tears!?!?" He got up and yelled at me. I know it's my fault that he's mad and that I deserve his shouting and even more of a punishment than that for what I did, but it still scared me.

I stood there shaking and looking at the floor, as if I was trying to hide myself in plain sight. "So you have no explanation!? HUH!? YOURE JUST GONNA LET ME STAND HERE AND SHOUT AT YOU BUT YOU ARENT GOING TO GIVE ME ANY REASON FOR THE WORRY YOU CAUSED ME!? WELL FUCK YOU THEN JACK!"

"Fe! Wait!" I called to him as he was just about to leave, "WHAT!?" He turned and his face was red with anger. "I was at marks, and... we lost track of time..." I lied.

"Well can you explain why you're soaked BY FUCKING RAIN THEN!" He got really close to me and made me flinch. "I sat outside for a while because... Uh... I was thinking." He frowned at me in confusion probably thinking I was an absolute idiot for sitting out in the rain but he seemed to calm down a bit and was less angry. However, now he just looked worried.

"What were you thinking about?" He hesitantly asked me. I swallowed and tried to decide whether to lie again or just tell the truth. "I was thinking about us..." not a complete lie I guess. "What about us?" He asked and I could see he was jumping to the conclusion that I was gonna leave him, by the tears forming in his eyes. "Well, I guess just about our argument earlier and how I was gonna say sorry." Great, another lie.

He let out a breath I assume he had been holding as he waited for bad news but seemed to be relieved, "oh, I'm sorry for yelling, both this morning and now... I really should try to stay calmer and stop jumping to conclusions. I love you jack." When he said those three words, they just seemed meaningless compared to when Mark said it.

He leant forwards to peck me on the lips and I didn't feel the same sparks that I did when I kissed Mark. But after today... I don't know if I can end it with him. I can't hurt him like that. Even though I know it's gonna either hurt him or Mark...

Or I could just hurt neither of them. I could, lie, to both of them. Tell Mark that I wasn't with Felix anymore but tell Felix that I was still with him... would that work? Where would I live? Maybe I'd have to chop and change... I think it could work... I don't know how long though... and I know how happy Mark is gonna be when I lie to him about Felix, and then it would completely ruin everything if either of them found out. Oh and I don't know how I'd cope with the guilt...

But I don't know what else to do...

Marks POV

After jack left that night I sat in my living room on the couch and just cried all night, "that's the end, Jack doesn't love me back, I ruined everything. I may have even ruined his relationship with Felix. UGH IM SUCH AND IDIOT!!!" I shouted to myself and angrily threw my phone that I was holding across the room, it smashed against the wall but I didn't care.

I laid down on the couch and sobbed myself to sleep.

~ time skip to the next day brought to you by this evil author that is very sorry about writing sad stuff :( ~

When I woke up it was quite late in the morning, my alarm from my phone didn't go off considering I smashed it against the wall. I looked at my watch and it was 11:30am. I have nothing to do today except wallow in my own pit of sorrow. I thought back on last night but before long the tears were already forming in my eyes.

I cursed myself for being such an emotional wreck but soon I heard a knock at the door, I got up and opened it to see... "Jack?"

He looked up at me and smiled, "I did it Mark, I broke up with Felix." He looked different than usual but I was so shocked I didn't pay much attention, more tears started to pour from my eyes but this time they were tears of joy as I wrapped my arms around him and brought him into the house before repeatedly kissing him all over his face.

"Oh Jack I love you so much you don't understand how happy I am!!!" I was grinning from ear to ear as I continued to kiss him, he didn't seem as happy as I thought he'd be though, "what's wrong? Did the breakup not go well or something?" I questioned suddenly worried about his lack of enthusiasm.

"N-No it went great, Felix still wants to be best friends like we were before though so I'll probably still be living there with him for a while unless you never want me to move in then I guess I'll live with him forever but like yeah..." he rambled on and I got confused, "Jack are you sure everything's ok?"

He sighed and smiled at me again, "yes Mark now c'mere!" He giggled and brought me into a kiss, but yet again it didn't feel right...

Jacks POV

I felt so guilty for lying to him, I couldn't break up with Felix, I went with the LYING idea I had, and I HATE LYING!!! I can't handle the guilt! And Mark can see through it already...

If I want this to work I have to break up with Felix. I just don't know how...? After spending the day with a very happy but slightly suspicious Mark I made my way back to my house with Felix.

On the walk back I constantly went through scenarios of what I could say to break up with Fe so it wouldn't hurt him too much, but every time it ended with him hating me and feeling alone again, but this time he'd have nobody to turn to.

I unlocked the door and was welcomed by a smiley Felix, "did you have a nice time with Mark?" He asked walking over to me and wrapping his arms around my waist before pecking my lips, "Uh, yeah, it was good. Fe I think we should talk." He looked confused but nodded.

We went to the couch and sat down, "umm so, basically I-" I was cut off by Felix's phone ringing, "hold that thought babe I gotta take this.

Felix's POV

I stood up to answer my phone after seeing it was from my mum in Sweden, "hey mum how are you?" I asked but I heard crying on the other end. "Mum? Are you ok!?" I questioned worried now, "no!! Felix it's your father! He was in an accident and... he didn't make it..." I stopped in my tracks and went silent.

I could feel the tears developing as I tried to comprehend what my mother had said. "No..." I whispered. "I need you here Felix. I need someone with me I can't handle it I miss him so much already!" My mum was sobbing loudly and I ran into my room with tears pouring from my face.

I opened my laptop and booked flights to Sweden somehow for later that day, "mum don't worry I'll be there soon I've booked a flight to get there and it leaves in 2 hours."

"Thank you..." I heard her mumble between her sobs. "Jag älskar dig" I told her I loved her before hanging up the phone and walking back down to tell jack.

"What happened!?" He asked worried as he darted over to me seeing that I'd been crying. I was still trying to understand it so talking about it was difficult. "My mum rung me and I have plane tickets to go to Sweden in 2 hours because, Uh, m-my d-dad... he's dead." Jack looked shocked and he suddenly wrapped his arms around me, "I'm so sorry Fe!!"

"No Jack it's not your fault but I have to pack and go."

Jacks POV

I can't break up with him now! Not now that this has happened he's got enough to be upset about! Why now!? Why did any of this have to happen!! Sometimes I wish I wasn't me... I have a great life with a great job and amazing friends and family... but in times like this I wish that my life was simpler...

A.N.
I hadn't written in a while so I thought I'd make 2 in one night! This ones shorter but I'm about to sleep so...

There should be more chapters of this soon unless everyone tells me they hate it and I should stop. Because then I will...

But don't worry too much! I hate sad endings so I'm planning on having a happy ending (sorry if that's classed as a spoiler)!

I hope you liked it even though this one was quite upsetting and thank you for reading!

Byyyyeeeee 😘👋🏼👋🏼👋🏼
