The tears stream hot down your reddened cheeks as you sit gently on the couch. Your cries catch in your throat, your chest jolting with every gasp. You can feel your heart breaking, and there is nothing you can do about it. With your hands pressing to your face, you lean forward, elbows on your knees. You sob into your hands.

"Y/N, do you want to talk about it?" Danny's soft voice asks from the doorway.

"I just, I don't understand. Why? I gave him everything. I did everything for him. I loved him so much, but...I wasn't enough. Why wasn't I enough?" You continue to cry into your hands.

"You were enough, Y/N. And if he couldn't see that then he wasn't worth your time." Danny moves to you, sits down and rubs your back.

"It just hurts so badly, Danny." You can't help it, you lean against Danny, curling into his chest.

Danny wraps his arms around you and pulls you in tightly. With his cheek pressed against your head the two of you sit in silence for a few moments. Then you hear footsteps entering the lounge. You wipe your eyes and look over to see Raegan standing in the doorway, his brows are furrowed and there is confusion in his eyes.

"Y/N? What's wrong? Are you okay?" Raegan rushes over to you and sits next to you.

"H-he broke up with me." You chew on your lip, trying to hold back more tears.

Raegan clenches his jaw and his nose flares slightly. Danny is still rubbing your back as you watch Raegan stand and begin to pace back and forth. You look at Danny who shrugs his shoulders. Both of you turn back to Raegan.

"Raegan? Are you alright?" Danny finally asks.

"No! That twat broke up with, Y/N. Y/N! He made her cry, and that doesn't sit well with me. No! Nopety, nope, nope. This will not stand. That is it." Raegan rubs the back of his neck vigorously.

"Raegan, it's okay. I'll be fine." You speak up.

"No it's not okay! You gave him so much and he just treats you like this. No."

"Raegan, what are you going to do?" Danny asks, squeezing your shoulder.

"I'm gonna deck him!" Raegan is ranting.

"No you're not."

"NO I'M NOT!" Raegan quickly yells as soon as Danny ends his sentence.

"I'm not the violent sort, he'd probably break me in one second."

You can't help but laugh at how Raegan's voice raised in pitch at the end.

"But that is shit. Complete shit. You don't need him in your life, Y/N. You've got us. We'll always be here for you." Raegan sits down and also puts his arm around you.

"Thanks guys, you guys really are great." It doesn't hurt any less, but you know that with two friends like Raegan and Danny you'll make it through.

"Now, how about we make you dinner and watch any movie you want?" Raegan asks sweetly, standing up.

"Yes! We will be your boyfriends for the night!" Danny smiles innocently as he too stands.

"Well, that's a bit strange to say, Danny." Raegan looks at the black haired man next to him, his arms crossing over his chest.

"I didn't mean it in a naughty sense. I meant we could just give her what she needs!"Danny covers his mouth with his fingers.

"Danny, just, stop. Let's go make dinner." Raegan pinches the bridge of his nose and they walk towards the kitchen.

You're left smiling on the couch, knowing that eventually it will get better.
