i wiped my tears off my cheeks as i posted the video on youtube and then posted the thumbnail and title on our social media accounts. i got up and went to henry's room, watching the sleeping boy. i sniffled and looked out the window. regina and i broke up today. we've been dating for eight years but we decided it would be best for Henry, our three year old son, if we stayed co-parents and best friends. i just want regina to be happy. and if i can't do that, i want someone else to. i love her so much. i can't imagine being with someone else. but i want her to be happy. i left his room and went back to, what will now just be, my room. i went to my bathroom and started a bath, then added bubbles to the warm water. i undressed and got in, sinking into the large tub. regina and i started a youtube channel when we first met, just as friends. we escalated quickly to best friends, then a couple. people loved our channel. we hit ten million subscribers in a little less than a year. news channels and websites talked about us. people said they thought we had about another year of popularity in us. somehow, we manage to still get millions of views on every video we post. our joint instagram account has a little over 60 million followers. people looked up to us because we were a "real couple" and shared the real stuff with them. we didn't just give them lovey-dovey shit. we gave them all of it. fights, petty arguments, jealousy, all. of. it. until Henry was born. we became more reserved when it came to what we posted. but most of our followers didn't care. most of them had grown with us over the years and said they were just happy we were still around. over our 8 year relationship, regina and i grew monumentally closer to each other. but in the last 3 years, we've grown apart. things changed. we changed. she changed. maybe i didn't change enough. but whatever happened, we are now just friends. and it is horrible to love someone so much and to hear them tell you it's not working anymore.____
i stared out the kitchen window at regina and henry running around the backyard playing together. it's been about two months since the break up. i sighed as i went back to making lunch. she comes over about everyday. i miss her so much, it's tearing me apart inside. but, for her and henry, i will pretend to be happy. i finished making lunch and washed my hands, then went to the open french doors. "alright kids, lunch is ready. come in and wash your hands." i said and they both groaned, making me smile. regina picked henry up, causing him to giggle and she ran inside with him. "no running in the hou-" i started but was cut off by regina slipping on who knows what and smashing to the ground on her ass, henry giggling the whole time. i picked him up. "are you okay?" i asked and she nodded a little. "i think i broke my tail bone." she said and i frowned. "momma got hurt!" henry shouted and i nodded. "yes she did." i said and sat him down on the island. "this is why we don't run in the house love." i said and helped her up. she hummed. "i didn't technically run in the house.. i just... ran in the house." she mumbled, sighing with the last part. i nodded. "i'll get you a pillow to sit on." i said and left the kitchen, going to grab a pillow from the living room.

i sighed and got out of bed, going to the door. i opened it to see regina with bags under her eyes. "i-i'm sick and my mom is out of town.. y-you always took the best care of me." she said with a raspy voice and i pulled her in, closing the door behind her. "why didn't you call me? i could've brought henry over and taken care of you." i said and she sighed. "i had been out. i was trying to get stuff done." she said and i sighed as i helped her upstairs. "i love you em." she said and i hummed, helping her get in bed. "i love you too Reg." i said and felt her head. "fuck reg you're burning up." i said and went to the bathroom, grabbing the motrin. i grabbed a water bottle from the mini fridge and came back into the room. she sat up, taking the medicine and drinking the water after i handed it to her. she closed her eyes and hummed as i took the water back. "thank you em.. you're the best.." she said and laid down. i nodded. "i know." i joked, smiling at the hint of a smile she gave. i ran my fingers through her hair before getting back in bed beside her. she immediately snuggled into me and i played in her hair.

i woke up to a knock on my door. i became an extremely light sleeper after the break up. i got up and went downstairs, pulling the door open. "hey. henry couldn't sleep so we're going for a drive.. wanna come? we always have fun." she asked and i nodded. "yes." i said and put on a pair of slip on vans i had at the door, then pulled on a hoodie. my hair was already in a messy bun and i was in soffe shorts and a tank top. i walked out of the house with her after grabbing my keys and i locked the door after me. we went to the car and put henry back in his seat, then we got in. she drove off and started riding around to nowhere in particular. i smiled as we just drove. i love them both so much. and if i can't have regina as my girlfriend anymore, at least i can still have her as my best friend.
