Alex's POV

"You only know you love her when you let her go."

That's what people say. A lot of people. I can personally relate to it. I loved (Y/N), I really did. But then I let someone get in the way of us. We really did have something, but I let her take over. So I ended what we had, not wanting to hurt (Y/N) more than I already had. So after, naturally, I tried to move on. I hoped after letting her go she'd just leave my mind after some time and I could focus on Maria. That she'd just fade away from my memories.

But life always has other plans... doesn't it?

Well, (Y/N) left my mind for the most part...

About a year and a half after the whole incident, I found myself asking Maria the big question. Fast forward to now... and she's about five months pregnant. Yet I found myself dwelling. I should've been happy, or at least happier. Because I was. I was excited in all, but there she was in the back of my mind. I couldn't help but wonder... what if Maria was her, and we could be married, expecting a child. Where would I be? How would I be? I mentally scolded myself for thinking about her... but I couldn't help it.

The one girl I thought would never move on, actually did. And for once in my life, I had no idea what to do.

It all started about two weeks ago. I was aimlessly scrolling through Instagram, trying to get my mind off of her. I was sitting in a chair by the window, and Maria was on the couch, watching a movie on TV. Scrolling was helping a bit, just casually looking at photos of my friends. Then I stumbled across one particular picture.

It was a picture of (Y/N), but not alone. Next to her was someone I quickly recognized as John Laurens, an old best friend of mine.

John was a well-known and widely loved YouTuber, and he had about eighteen million subscribers (I think Jack has more than that by now but that's the last number I remember). So needless to say, I was surprised when I saw her with him. I had introduced them once seeing as John and I were friends (both being childhood friends and YouTubers), and I guess they stayed in contact. But it wasn't just him in the picture that surprised me.

Someone had taken a photo of them in what looked like Central Park. John's arm was wrapped around (Y/N)'s waist and both of them were smiling brightly. What I noticed was (Y/N) was looking at the camera, John was not. Instead, John was looking down at her, clearly lovestruck.

Y/I/N: Proud to finally release the secret! John and I have been dating for 8 months now, and I couldn't be happier with anyone else💕 (photo credits also go to Herc~!)
