[UNEDITED]
"Hey, dude, are you okay?"
"Oh, um, yeah." I said, fiddling with my bracelet."Okay, what's wrong?"
"N-nothing."
"Ruel, you're staring at someone."I looked at my friend.
"No, I'm not."
"Yeah, you are."
I sighed."Well, go ahead."
I took a deep breath."I-I don't know, I think I might have feelings for her?"
"Iris?"
I shook my head.
"Kamie?"
"No."
"Well, then who?""Y/n." I said.
His eyes widened."Yeah, I know." I groaned.
"Um-"
"Don't."He held his hands up.
"I mean, you know you should tell her, right?"
"Yeah, but she just got into a relationship."
"Wait, really?""I mean, she's always around him, I haven't hung out with her in a while. Last time we talked, she said she liked him."
"Dude, I don't think they're dating.""They sure look like it."
"Why don't you ask?"
"Cause I can't!"
"Why not?"
I didn't say anything."Five, I'll just ask her then" Sergio said, standing up, but I pulled him back down.
"Serg, you can't ask her that!"
"Give me a reason why I can't?"
"Because he's sitting right next to her!"
"It'll make it even more interesting then.""I'll ask her later then, okay? Now sit down!"

Later that day, I saw her running around the neighborhood. I quickly caught up to her.
"Y/n!"
She turned around. Once she saw me, she slowed down to a stop."Oh, hey, Ruel." she smiled.
I smiled, saying, "it's been a while, eh?"
"Yeah, things just got a little busy."
"How have you been?"
"I've been doing really well actually. How about you?"
"I've been okay."
"Did you need something?" she asked."Uh, yeah, um,I was wondering if you wanted to hang out sometime?"
"Oh, yeah, sure, I'd love that."
"Really?""Yeah, just like old times."
"Yeah." I smiled. "Um, I need to tell you something."
"Sure, what is it?""So, um, I've been thinking about things a lot lately and I think I-"
Her phone began ringing and she asked, "I'm sorry, can I take this?"
I shrugged. She turned around and began talking."Hey, babe."
In that moment my heart felt like it dropped into my stomach.
"Yeah, sure. I'm excited. Okay, love you too."
I felt like I couldn't breathe. My vision was getting blurry and I could barely hear what she was saying to him.
She turned around, facing me.
"Sorry about that, what were you saying?"
I didn't say anything, I couldn't.
"Ruel, are you okay?"
"You-you have a boyfriend."
"Oh, yeah, I told him, Ruel." she said, smiling.I bit my lip, nodding.
"I'm happy for you. I'll see you around." I managed to say before turning around and walking away.
"Wait, what did you want to tell me?"
"Um, nothing. It's nothing."
"Oh, um, okay. I'll see you around!"I knew I shouldn't have thought something could happen between us. He was always her first choice, I was her second. Over time, I became her last option, but she was always my first choice.
