He took my hand. "Dan, please, I'm so sorry. I didn't mean for you to find out this way."

"This way? How did you want me to find out then, Phil? Would you have bought me a fucking puppy to distract me? Because I don't think anything you could do, or say, would make any difference."

"Dan..." He moaned.

"You know, when we got into this, I always believed that you'd never hurt me. That if this ended, it'd be my fault. Maybe, in some way, this is my fault. Maybe I drove you to do it..."

"No." Phil interrupted. "Dan, it's not your fault. This is all me. Me, me, me. I'm sorry. Please forgive me." I could see the water rising in his eyes.

"You can't just beg for my forgiveness and expect me to give it to you. It doesn't work like that, Phil." I slid my hand free of his, and ruffled it through my hair in confusion. "It just doesn't work like that."

I strode away from him and towards the flat; dreading the awkwardness that the apartment would hold the following day.

But Phil didn't want to wait.

Phil, being Phil, ran after me. He cut off my path - the water in his eyes had toppled over the edge now, and were sliding down his pale cheeks. "This isn't it, Dan. This can't be it. We can't just end it here."

"What do you want me to say, Phil?"

"I want you to let me explain."

"What's there to explain? You slept with my brother." I spat the words out. It made me feel sick just thinking about it.

"But you weren't here!" He protested.

"That doesn't give you the right to cheat on me."

"But don't you see? This is a compliment." You could tell he was desperate now. "I missed you. I needed you. The closest thing to you, is your brother..."

"Oh yes, very logical, Phil." I cut him off. "I totally understand. Here, take my forgiveness." The sarcasm was flowing out of my mouth without a seconds thought.

I walked away from him, in the opposite direction. "I'll stay at Chris', maybe..." I thought, before Phil grabbed my shoulder and spun me round. He just wouldn't give up. He was begging me now.

"Dan, please. Please, I was an idiot. But, I haven't changed! Nothing has changed about me, I'm still the same Phil." His hand gestures were flying all over the place, in desperation for me to understand.

"I never said you had changed. I just didn't know this side to you existed." I walked off again, and Phil caught my hand. I turned around and, forcefully, pushed him to the floor. Tears were now racing down my cheeks too. I turned away from him and he screamed after me: shouting my name and begging for forgiveness.

I wanted to rip out my hair and shout back - tell him how he hurt me. I wanted to break everything in my path, because that's how I felt inside. I wanted... My thoughts stuttered. I wanted to... My brain sighed. I wanted to leave.

So, that's what I did.

I left.
