UNEDITED

Everyday. Every single day he crossed my mind. In bed at night, when I wake up, during the day...he's all I think about. His sweet personality, his talent, his long brown hair, I love it all. Jake Kiszka has had my heart for over a year, and his twin, Josh, is the only person who knows. Oh, and so does Jake.
"Where's Sam and Jake?" I asked Josh as I sat on his couch, opening a bottle of beer.
"Uh, they haven't been home for a while. They'll probably come back soon." He told me, brushing it away. "So uh, how's things?"
"What do you mean by 'things'?" I chuckled.
"You know," he shrugged. "Jake?" He smirked. I looked down at my feet as he said his name.
I shrugged. "The same. Nothing new."
"Y/n, you need to tell him," he sternly told me. "You can't just keep daydreaming about it all the time, you've got to do something about it."
I kept staring at the floor, slightly nodding in agreement.
"Plus, it's not like he's got a girlfriend," Josh added. That was true. It's not like I'd be ruining something that's already there and making things worse for somebody else.
"Okay," I nodded, picking my head up. "When he gets home, I'll...I'll talk to him."
"There you go," Josh excitedly said, patting my back. I chuckled, hearing the front door open, signaling Jake and Sam we're back.
"Hey y/n!" Sam said, entering the living room.
"Hi Sammy," I smiled. "What's up?"
"Nothing much, how you doing?" He grinned, sitting down beside me. I nodded and told him I was good. I heard some commotion in the hall by the door. Was Jake talking to someone?
"Hey guys," he said, walking into the living room, a beautiful, skinny, brown-eyed, brunette girl walking in beside him. "This is Maddie."
Any smile or slight smirk I had immediately dropped. She snaked her hand around his waist and waved greeting us with a quiet, "Hi."
"I'm Josh," he greeted, also waving slightly. "This is y/n..."
"Hi Josh, hi y/n!" She nicely said. The water in my eyes came out without even a threat, so I jumped up and rat out of the room making a bee-line to Josh's bedroom. I slammed his door, jumped onto his bed, and sobbed into his pillow.
I had finally become so close to Jake, close enough to the point that today I was going to tell him how I really felt about him. And he comes home with a girl? The more I thought about it the more I sobbed. I cried and cried and cried until it was just silent tears running down my sticky face.
I heard feet shuffling in the hallway, coming to open the door.
"Josh, please just leave me alone..." I said, my words muffled in the pillow.
"What if I'm not Josh?"
I turned my head to see that it was Jake, as he closed the door behind him. "Hi," he whispered. I turned my head away from him. "Are you okay? Josh said I should go talk to you."
I stayed quiet.
"Y/n?" He softly said, putting his hand on my shoulder. I sat up only to shove my face into my hands to cry again.
"I just..." I began. "There's just so much I want to say to you but I don't know where to start."
"It's okay," he said, hand still on my shoulder. I put my hands down, looked straight ahead of me, took a deep breath and began.
"Do you know how long I've liked you? From the day I met you and on I've always had a huge crush on you. I still do. It never went away. You know that I like you, how could you not say anything at all? Not even a 'I just don't like you in that way' or 'let's just stay friends.' I'd rather be friend-zoned than you passing it by like it's nothing. You told Josh you knew that I liked you, but you couldn't even tell me? I think you're so cool, you're talented, you're handsome... I love everything about you so much. And then you came home with a girl and it fucking set me off Jake, I'm sorry."
I put my face back into my hands and sobbed again. "I'm sorry..." I repeated.
"I...I knew you liked me but I didn't know you liked me that much..." he shakily said.
"I was going to tell you this today anyway, but the fact that you now have a girl makes it ten times worse," I explained.
"I'm sorry y/n," he said, lightly rubbing my back. "But you're right, I should've said something..." I looked over at him, his eyes full of sympathy as they stared at my watery ones. "I just don't like you in that way."
The tears fell again as I looked away from him.
"I love you so much, you're so important to me, but just not in that way. And I really like Maddie, I think things will go well with her." He calmly explained. "I'm so sorry."
"It's okay," I whispered.
"I'll...I'll let you freshen up," he said, standing up to leave the room. He planted a kiss on my head and left, lightly closing the door behind him.
I kept crying over and over again. Why the fuck is life like this? Why do things always end up this way. I shoved my face back into the pillow and as loud as I could, I screamed, "FUCK."
