Alex came downstairs with Chance and I felt my eyes tear up. They were laughing and joking with everyone else. I took my coffee up to my room and sat on the end of my bed. I had been without Chance for 8 and half months now and he's met Alex.

 I wish I could like her, my head wants to like her and to be her friend. My heart tells me I can't- I can't do that to myself. I haven't healed yet, I can't put myself through that. That would cause me too much pain. 

I sipped my coffee and watched the clouds float by. My tears started dropping into my drink. I went into my en suite and brushed my teeth. I changed into a pair of Adidas leggings and a bralette. I was putting on my trainers when there was a knock on my door. "Come in." I called. Alex came through. "You okay? Everyone is worried about you recently." She asked sweetly. "Oh yeah I've just been trying to catch up on sleep." I smiled back. I started Dutch braiding my hair. "I just wanted to check we're okay, because I think we could hit it off me and you, but if it would hurt you too much we don't have to." She said, she was so sweet and not nasty in the slightest. "Urm..." I said tearing up. She ran to my side and we sat on my bed. "I know it's not your fault, but it's been really hard." I cried. She hugged me tightly. "I totally understand I've had some nasty breakups." She said rubbing my back. "Woah what is going on here?" Chances voice bounced off the walls. We let go of each other. "You can go." I murmured. "We can talk later." She said squeezing my hand. "Yeah Alex I'd really like that." I said squeezing hers back.

Alex:

I shut her bedroom door and sighed, that was heavy. Y/N is so, so beautiful, she lights up a room- honestly. She's so innocent, sweet, but so broken. "What was that about?" Chance asked as we walked into our room. I touched up the curls in my hair. "Y/N is going through so much, we thought she was getting better, but Chance she really is not okay." I said sadly. "We need to lay the PDA off in front of her, watch out for her- she is a mess." I said. "I didn't realise she felt like that." He replied.

Y/N:

I did some editing and went on a Starbucks run. I sat down at my desk and switched my computer on. I opened up YouTube and replied to some comments whilst sipping my drink. "Hey." Chance said walking in, he closed the door behind him and I felt my heart pound in my chest. "Hey." I smiled. "Could we talk?" He said rubbing the back of his neck. "Yeah okay." I replied. I moved onto my bed and he sat opposite me. "How are you?" He asked a concerned look on his face. "Fine, why?" I frowned. "Don't lie to me Y/N, I know you, I know when you're lying." He said sadly. I swallowed the tears. "Okay I'm struggling a bit." I mumbled embarrassed. "What are you struggling with?" I looked down at the floor as a tear rolled down my cheek. "My feelings for you. It's really hard to deal with." I replied. "Why didn't you tell me?" He said tearing up. "Because you're far happier with Alex than you were with me, so why would I bother telling you if I know your response?" I asked as tears raced down my face. He bit his lip and held my hand. "I will always have a soft spot for you Y/N, you know that we had a long ass relationship, despite the fact it ended badly we have thousands upon thousands of great memories. I have learnt so much for you and grown up so much. Just because I've fallen for someone new; doesn't mean I'm gonna cut you out of my life." He sighed, he pulled me into a hug. "I'm sorry you felt alone." He said kissing the top of my head. "It's not your fault." I replied. "I'll move on soon, I know there's someone waiting for me." I smiled.
