april gloom ✨📍

jack's pov

i walked down the street, the sky grey and the sidewalk wet. i stuffed my hands in my jacket, noticing how red they had gotten because of the chill. my earbuds were in my ear but weren't playing any music. not because i didn't wanna talk to anyone but because i couldn't get my mind off of her and was too distracted to do anything else.

— flashback —
"jack" she laughed out, trying to swat away my hand from tickling her anymore. as she was trying to get me off of her, i flipped onto my back with her on my stomach. her head lay perfectly in my neck, and i could feel her breath tickle me. she looked up at me, and said "i love you." three words that i would love hearing over and over again, only in the way she said it.

i was so in love with her. it was scary what i would willingly do to make sure she was smiling at all times. her presence itself made me a better person and the fact that i got to call her my girlfriend was fucking everything.

but all good things have to come to an end, right?

i'll never forget that day. the day where all my love turned to shit and all my laughter and happiness was stolen.

she was laying there, with another man. i didn't know what to do. i didn't know if i wanted to beg for her to tell me what i needed to do to change myself more for her liking or if i should just leave.

i still remember the way she looked at me. with apologetic eyes but i could tell she was bullshitting me. she wasn't sorry one bit.

she begged and cried for me to stay, to hear her side of the story. but what could she have possibly said?

i haven't seen her since. she moved out of the house, god knows where she was.
i havent been the same since, having rarely smiled. only thinking about how the love of my life turned out to be a cheat.

i snap back to reality, seeing that i had made it to the coffee shop where i was supposed to meet johnson. i wiped the tears off my cheeks, not even realizing that i had started crying.

i open the door, getting ready to face whatever meeting was about to happen.

this april gloom is here to stay.
