[UNEDITED]

"Do you love me?" I barged into his room.

"What?"

"Do you love me?" I cried 

"Baby, of course I do. What's wrong?" he said, standing up and walking towards me. 

"Y-your friends won't stop texting me s-saying that you've been t-telling them that you were planning on breaking up with me."

"What?" he asked. "I promise I wasn't planning on breaking up with you. Why would I tell them that anyways?"


I backed away from him slowly. 

"Do you promise?"

"Yes. Pinky promise." he said, holding out his pinky. 

I shook my head. 

"Ruel, stop lying."

"I'm not. I love you."

"Who's Lauren?"

"W-what?" he asked, asked surprised. 


"Lauren. Who's Lauren?"

"She's my ex girlfriend. Why?"

"You still love her, don't you."

"No, I love you. That's why I'm with you."

"Stop lying, Ruel," I said, annoyed. "You still say her name in your sleep." 

I wiped my eyes. 


"Why would you stay with me if you still loved her?"

"Y/n-"

"Tell me."

"I don't love her anymore. I'm over her."

"Then why do you still say her name?" 

"I-I don't know."


"Have you been texting her?"

"Why told you that?"

"Answer me."

"Yes." he said. 

I felt my heart drop. 


"Y/n, listen. It's not what you think-"

"Really, Ruel? Cause it seems like you still aren't over her!"

"What if I'm not! You want the truth? Fine! I still do think about her! She was my first love and I'll always have a spot in my heart for her!"

As he spoke each word, I could feel my heart breaking a little more. 

"I knew you still loved her." I was able to muster before breaking down. 

I heard him take a deep breath and say, "Y/n, I'm sorry."

"Your friends were right then." I whispered. 

He didn't say anything. He just stared at me hysterically crying. 


"So everything was just a-a distraction for you?"

"I do lov-"

"Don't." I said. 

He sat down on his bed and patted the spot next to him. 

I sat down. 


"So now what?" I asked. 

"I'm sorry."

"That's not going to help anything."

"Right. Um, I-I guess we should break up."

I nodded. 

"Um, yeah. I-I guess I should go then."

"I'll walk you out." he said, standing up, but I stopped him. 

"It's okay. I'll be fine."


I began walking out of his room when he said, "Wait!"

I turned around. 

"I'm sorry I lied. I did love you though and everything that happened was genuine."

I slightly smiled and nodded, continuing to leave his house one last time. 


As I was making my way to his house, I had hoped his friends were lying. I couldn't believe them. I thought I knew Ruel, but clearly I don't.
