"Please, I'm sorry"

No Love

***RYE'S POV***

How do I tell Mariana I'm sorry and that we can't be together.

I love her but as friends and strictly as a friend. Trish still has me. Even after how long it's been she does.

Yes, I'm sat cuddling with Mariana. Watching a movie and scrolling through DMs. But honestly I'd prefer it to be T.

"Mariana?" I said gently.
"Yeah baby" she replied.
"I'm sorry" I say, sitting up to look at her.
"What for?" She said, her voice saddened.
"I.. I can't do us anymore" I look down at my feet then back into her eyes.
"W...Why?" She croaked.
"I can't say I love you when I don't. I love you as a friend but nothing more. I can't pretend I love you as a girlfriend when I don't. I can't and I won't do that to you" I said. Tears formed in her eyes. I felt bad but I had to.

"It...It's okay. I understand what you mean. I'm actually happy that you've told me why and not just dumped me and leave me with no explanation of why" she said standing up.
"I'm sorry. Stay the night and I'll take you home in the morning" I say to her as she grabs her stuff.
"No it's alright. Lily will probably be lonely so I'll be keeping her company" she said, putting her shoes on.
"You sure? Let me take you home then" I replied.
"Yes I'm sure. No it's okay. Bye" she said walking out.

***MARIANA'S POV***

I walked out and called an Uber. I was stood waiting for five minutes before it came. It was kinda cold out but I didn't care. As I sat in the Uber, I called Zach.

"Hey, who are you at the hotel with?" I asked him.
"Hey, no one. Just me, pizza and Fortnite. Why?" He replied.
"I'm coming" I said.
"In which way?" He laughed.
"Well for me I'm coming to where you are. And for you, it can be the other way"I said sexually.
"Woahhh" he laughed.
"Cya when I get there" I said blowing a kiss down the phone before hanging up.

What I'm doing is probably wrong but I don't care. There's rumours going around that Zach has a thing for me so I might as well be with someone that actually loves me.

I'm not that mad at Rye but he could've told me before we took things further. That's the one thing that's pissing me off. I feel kinda stupid about it but I shouldn't. It's Rye's loss, I guess, not mine.

As the Uber pulled up, I saw Zach waiting for me at the hotel doors.

"Are you really outside waiting for me at 11:15pm?" I giggled.
"Yes I am" he giggled back.
We got the lift up to his floor and looked for his room.

"Is it true then?" I asked him as we entered his room.
"Is what true?" He replied, sitting on his bed.
"That you have a thing for me"I said, walking over to close his curtains.
"Well, maybe" he said blushing.
"Why maybe?" I said laughing a little. I walked over to where he was and sat down next to him.
"Because I'm not going to actually admit it" he said nervously. His cheeks grew more red.

"What do you think I'm going to do?" I replied.
"I don't know. What would you do"He said looking me in the eyes.
"Well, I would do this" I said kissing him "what would you do?"
"Oh well I'd do this"He said, pushing me into the bed and kissing me roughly.

And with that.... Rye was nothing to me.
