Imagine:
I climb under the barrier and sit down, my legs hanging over the edge. This was the place Y/n and I would come to meet up after dark in the summer, where we could stare down at the streets as people and cars made their way home. But of course, everything's changed now. I've come here on my own for the past 2 months without her. This spot is no longer special like it used to be when Y/n was by my side. I feel empty and lost whenever I come here, almost like I'm longing for her presence. But coming here puts my mind at rest from the million thoughts circling my head –most of them to do with Y/n. I don't even know what we are anymore. I wanted to forget the things that happened and start over as just friends 'cause I love her too much to let go completely. But she had different plans. She took "a break", said she needed time to think about us... but she was happy. Whilst I waited for her to decide, whilst the days dragged on like years, I saw her smiling, laughing, having fun. But it wasn't just with her friends, it was with someone new – she'd replaced me with my friend.
** 1 week later***
I shuffle out of class as soon as the bell rings and walk home with my earphones in. I was so focused on getting home I didn't see Y/n waving her hands infront of me. I take an earphone out and stare at her. "What are you doing?"
She looks hurt at my sharp words, but I don't care. Why is she acting this way when she hurt me? "I-I wanted to... I need to talk to you Shawn."
She places her hand on my arm but I shake it off. "Don't you want us to be together again?"
And with those words the heavy burden breaks, my heart shatters into a million pieces. I freeze on the spot and glare at the ground.
"You want us to be... together?"
I lift my gaze up and look at Y/n. She nods her head anxiously, waiting for an answer. I plug my earphones back in and rush ahead, leaving Y/n behind. What is she thinking? Does she really think I'd want her back? Maybe I did before, but not now, not anymore.
