Jonah's POV

I have to tell her. It's not right. I want to love her. Of course I do, she's my first love. But then, I walked into the coffee shop and I saw her. I couldn't stop looking at her. She was mesmerizing. I hate to do this to y/n, but I love someone else.

Your POV

I miss Jonah. We haven't been as close as we were before and it's making me worried. I love Jonah. He's the one I know it for sure.

I text Jonah asking where he is.

You- hey babe:) wanna come over today?

Jonah- yeah i was actually gonna call you because i wanna talk to you.

That was weird, Jonah usually sends me an emoji or a smiley face when he texts me. Whatever, he probably just forgot.

You- okay, i'll see you in an hour?

Jonah- yep sounds good.

You- I love you Jonah:)

You shut your phone off and get ready for Jonah to come over. You shower, change and end up cleaning the house. After you finish, you sit on the couch and watch tv. About 15 minutes later, the doorbell rings. You get up and open the door. You see Jonah and give him a big smile. He replies back with a weak grin. You turn around and furrow your eyebrows. You walk to the kitchen and ask Jonah if he wants any to drink.

"Hey, do you want anything to drink?

"No, I'm good thanks."

You grab a bottle of water for yourself and sit at the kitchen counter. You pat the seat next to you and Jonah sits down.

"So what did you want to talk about babe?"

"Oh...umm."

You look at him weirdly.

Why was he acting like this? The Jonah that I know would be this awkward. Why would he, we've been together for 3 years.

He looks at you with sad eyes.

"Jonah, whats wrong?"

You reach for his hand but he immediately pulls it away.

"I can't do it anymore, y/n."

"Do what anymore?"

"I can't be with you anymore."

The moment you hear those words, your body goes numb. Your knees go weak, and you stare at him. His eyes look cold. When you meet eyes, he looks down.

"Why?" you say softly, emotionless.

He glances at you shamefully and looks back down.

"WHY JONAH?"

"I FOUND SOMEONE ELSE." he says quickly, with a raised voice.

You are taken aback. Not just by what he said but the way he did. He immediately realizes what he said.

"I'm so sorry."

He found someone else. He found someone else who he loves more. Was I not good enough? Did I not make him happy?

"When did you see her?"

He doesn't answer.

"When did you meet her, Jonah? You did this, at least own up to it," you say shakily.

He slowly raises his head and stares at you directly in the eyes.

"Seven months ago."

Your heart shatters. You haven't cried yet. You haven't shown any emotion. But when you hear these words, you break. You get out of your seat and start crying. You look at Jonah. So this isn't a new thing. This has been going on for a while. This isn't a new thing.

"So you cheated on me." you say backing up.

"y/n,"

He gets out of his chair and walks closer to you.

"Don't Jonah." you say sternly.

He looks shocked and stops.

"What happened? Was I not good enough? Did I not make you happy? Why did you do this? You couldn't break up with me. You had to be a coward and cheat. I loved you. You were my everything. The first thing I thought about when I woke up, and last thing before I fell asleep. When I thought of my future, I was positive that you were gonna be in it. I was ready Jonah. You love someone too, it just it isn't me. You were the one Jonah."

You barely manage to get this out.

He looks at you and begins to cry.

"Don't you dare. You don't deserve to cry. You hurt me. You cheated. YOU broke ME. I loved you. You don't have the right to cry."

"I love you y/n."

"No, you don't. You love her. Go be with her. Love her the way I thought you loved me. Nobody deserves this. Apparently, you thought I did. But she doesn't."

"Leave Jonah. Get out."

He looks at you miserably. He turns around and starts to leave.

"Wait Jonah. Before you leave answer this question."

"Does she make you happy? The way I didn't?"

He turns around and you meet eyes. You both just stare at each other's eyes for a minute.

These are the eyes I fell in love with, and these are the eyes that broke me.

"I'm sorry."

"I know you are. I am too."

He doesn't answer the question but you already know the answer. He turns back around and walks out. You hear the door shut and immediately start crying even more than you already are. You slide your back down the front door and your whole body shakes while you cry.

She makes him happy.
