To Fall In Love With The Right Guy ✓ (Completed)

Clark has been acting weird lately, sometimes he comes to work, he's no longer the bright, cheerful Clark I used to know.
Like he's going through something and he doesn't want to share it.

He didn't come to work today,
So I decided to go to his house after work today.

I knocked twice before the door opened,
"Cara?" , I just smiled, he looks like a mess, like he's been sleeping the whole day or something ,
"can I come in?",
"of course".

His house is quite huge and cool. I turned to look at him, he still looked surprised, I raised my shoulders and rolled my eyes at him and he laughed.

I sat down on the couch as he made coffee. Minutes later he sat beside me and offered me the coffee.

"so, how's work?", I dropped the coffee and looked at him, he's really going through something, it's written all over his face,
"are you alright, I mean you've been skipping work and you're not telling me anything, are you going through something?",
For seconds we were staring at each other, then he rubbed his eyes and sighed
"I resigned"
"you what! Why?",
"cause.. "he paused
" cause what?",
"am traveling back to New York",
"why?"

He stood up from the couch, I stood up too,
"did something happen?",
"no, nothing happened",he said looking at me straight in the eye, "then why are you going back, I thought you're trying to-",
"yes! But I don't want something like that happening again to me!",he screamed at me.

He touched his messy hair, I stood there looking at him, still not getting what he's saying.

"I was trying to get away from that hurt, I came here because I wanted to start anew, then I met you, I tried preventing it from happening, I tried not falling in love with you", my eyes widened, he nodded and continued,
"yea, I really really love you but if I keep on you might do the same thing to me, I know you love Zack".

My heart skipped a beat, I looked away from him in shame

He knows I love Zack?

"I know you love him, I mean you guys have been friends since college and am just a guy you met few weeks ago", I looked at him,
"how did you know that?",
I never told him we've been friends since college,
"never mind", he said dropping on the couch,
"did you talk with Zack?",
"no",
"Dana?", he didn't talk and I know it's her.

I sat back on the couch, both of us quiet, I feel so sorry for him, Clark got everything I wanted in a man, he's so nice and sweet, but what he said was right, I love Zack and I might end up hurting him.
And I don't want that.

"am really sorry", I said looking down at the floor,
"it's all my fault, I love Zack, I couldn't tell him, then I met you, I needed someone to feel romantically attached to, you were nice and sweet, then I thought maybe I should give you a chance, but I just can't get my mind together",
I stopped talking because I don't even know what to do or what am saying, am really hurting him.
