Friendbroken

Summer

Annie had a crush on a guy. His name was Charles. At first, I didn't like Charles because he seemed rude. I got to know him and even though he was a little cocky, he was a good person and helped you whenever you needed it.

They talked, talked, hung out after school and eventually were a thing but weren't a thing. As they got closer to each other, I also got closer to them. They became really good friends to me and I hung out with them more after school and whenever I could. They said they didn't mind. I was really happy back then.

They seemes so happy and cute together, but boy oh boy, did that boy have insecurities.

Annie was smart, pretty, she was basically the perfect package. Because she had all of these qualities, he was so insecure and didn't want to loose her. He felt as if he didn't deserve her so he made a deal with me. 

Because he was so insecure, he talked to me and asked that if there were to come a time if Annie ever cheated, I would be the first person he would tell. Oblivious as I was, I agreed. Not thinking at the time that it wasn't my relationship and it wasn't my business to begin with. 

We never told her about this until we all had a group chat with each other. Usually we all talked to each other individually. She would tell me everything he told her and I would tell her everything he told me along with him doing the same thing. We weren't really thinking back then. 

In the group chat we were messing around and then me and Charles mentioned how we had a secret that we couldn't tell her. 

Big mistake. 

As nosy as she was, she of course wanted to know and we told her that she would know eventually, but she began to get mad. She stopped responding and I had to convince her that I made a mistake and I was truly sorry. 

Charles begged me not the tell her, but I just couldn't do it. 

You know what they say, hoes before bros. 

So thats what I did. I told her everything and she was normal about it, but disappointed that he would do such a thing and involve someone else in the relationship yet she was doing the same thing by telling me everything about their relationship, but I do take blame for being involved in it too much. I told her to stop telling me anything about their relationship and I stopped talking to them for a while. 

It wasn't until weeks later when Charles texted me saying that he needed relationship help. I of course helped him out, but I told him I couldn't do much because I wan't talking to Annie. I asked him if he was okay and if he needed anything I would be here to help him. 

He didn't answer. 

He answered me 30 minutes saying they broke up. 

I didn't know what to say besides if he was okay and if he needed anything I would be here to help him. He was fine, but I knew something I shouldn't have known.
