you paced around your room, anxiety consuming you. you were finally going to spill your guts to your best friend, austin. you guys have been friends for most of your life so everyone just figured that it was due time before you caught something for the special soft pink haired boy, they were right. he started consuming your thoughts and you began craving him in more than just a romantic way and it was driving you crazy. you grabbed your phone and began to type, hands shaking as your fingers flew on the screen.

y/n☁️
aus! we! need! to! talk!

austin💫
talk! then! you! rat!

you were beyond terrified to talk to him. you just stared at your screen as thoughts of the boy saying he doesn't like you back and cutting all ties with you filled your mind. you sighed as you picked up your phone again and began typing.

y/n☁️
we've been friends for a while now...

austin💫
spill your guts👀

you rolled your eyes at his stupid response, smiling. he never failed to make you
happy in such drastic situations. it's why you loved him.

y/n☁️
and uh i've kinda grown
a stupid, tiny, little,
microscopic, teeny,
crush (if even that) on you

you watched the 3 dots pop up on your screen before disappearing. you grew anxious as the dots did the same thing 2 more times. you felt stupid and vulnerable as you laid in your bed, letting your mind run wild. you phone vibrated as you watched the blonde haired boy's face pop up on your screen. you reluctantly grabbed the device and answered voice soft, but full of anxiety.

"hey austin! what's up? how are you?"

you played with the hole in your jeans as you tried to steer the conversation away from the topic at hand, failing miserably. austin just sighed. his tone was annoyed, as you expected.

"y/n, stop avoiding the elephant in the room..."

you just bit your lip and didn't respond. fear gnawed at you.

"i don't know what you're talking about, aus."

you heard the blonde sigh before hanging up. you tossed your phone onto your bed before laying down. only minutes later, your phone buzzed.

austin💫
if texting makes this more
comfortable for you then
let's text this out.

y/n☁️
fine. i think i'm in love
with you. i'm sorry.  your turn.

austin wished he knew what to say. he was baffled to say the least.

austin💫
i can't say that i feel
the same way, but i'm
not scared of you. i don't
want to end our friendship.

you felt your heart hurt as you put your phone down. he didn't want to stop being friends but he was the love of your life. your heart couldn't bare to deal with not having him as your own, so you did what anyone in this situation would have done. maybe.

y/n☁️
i'm sorry but i can't do that.
i need you to be mine and i
need to be yours. we can't
be friends. i want you too badly.

austin simply read the message but didn't reply. he was too confused and shocked to even think of a response to that. you felt terrible about ending your friendship with austin, but it had to be done.
