in which a group of girls attempt to play matchmaker for one of their own who has been in love with her best friend for years, only to end up falling in love themselves along the way.

"Where did it all go wrong?" She sighed heavily, her feet barely brushing the ground.
"They were supposed to fall in love..." he was sitting so close to her, but she couldn't bring herself to meet his eyes. "And now, because I messed it all up, they can barely even talk to each other without wanting to gouge their eyes out."
He scoffed. "You can't possibly think that this your fault, can you?"
She looked at him, her stare hollow.
"But isn't it?"
He rolled his eyes.
"You must have some superiority complex, huh?"
"Excuse me?" she scoffed, insulted.
"What is that supposed to mean?"
"It means," he said slowly. "It seems like you really think you're important if you think everything that happened between them is because you screwed up."
He looked away, gazing out onto the city. It was late at night, but it seemed that was when the city was the most awake.
"Look." He sighed. "Sure, you and your friends meddled a little bit, and maybe you did overstep your boundaries, but when it was all said and done, did you force them to react that way? No. It was bound to happen, whether you tried to push the two of them together or not."
He grabbed her hands, and turned to face her.
"They were best friends, ignoring their feelings and skirting around the fact that they were in love with each other. There was no way you could have stopped the inevitable from happening."
"In love with each other?" She mocked. "Yeah, so in love with each other that they broke the other's heart."
