"Hey!" Ethan said excited but his expression changed when he noticed I was crying. It wasn't usual, I'm actually usually high energy and happy, even when I'm not feeling good. I fake it well. But today it was too much to deal with.

He stepped out of the house and just hugged me, which made me feel good, like I wasn't alone in this. Ethan understood me better than anyone, we were similar in many ways and I think he figured out what was going on just by seeing Kyle driving away. He put it together.

"Did he do it again?" He said not breaking the hug "yeah" I cried quietly in his chest. He tighten the hug and the let go and put his hand on the sides of my face, lifting it so I would look at him. My eyes were definitely puffy and red. He said he was sorry and kissed my forehead.

"Wanna come inside? We can talk about ii if you want or we can take our minds off of it, I'm here for you, we both are. I smiled and nodded.

When I got in I saw Grayson in the kitchen, he dropped a heavy plastic bawl in his foot and yelled which made me laugh out loud, they always did that even in my sad days. He saw me laughing and gave me a fake mad look but then his expression softened, much like Ethan, which made me laugh softly and think wow they really are twins.
Ethan wasn't there anymore, I didn't even see him leave.

"What's up?" He immediately hugged me, they had different types of hugs. Ethan would wrap his arms around my shoulders and pull me to his chest, Grayson would wrap his arms around my waist and rest his head on my shoulder, while I would wrap my arms around his neck. Both were comforting which is what I needed.
"Kyle broke up with m-" my voice cracked and crying took over me, I was pretty messed up.

He took me over to the couch, meanwhile Ethan came back and sat with us, each on either side of me and they heard me rant about how sad I was and how I didn't get the situation at all. They each have their opinion aswell, Ethan thought he would come around again, like he did last time. Grayson believed so too but didn't like the idea of us getting back together

"You'd just be setting yourself up for the same heartbreak you feel right now. You don't need this (y/n) you deserve someone who knows what he wants...I..." he stopped himself

"What I wanted him to tell me, he seemed to know something I didn't but maybe I was wrong

He started stumbling on his words and I knew something was up "honestly you don't even need to know this, trust me, I don't want you worrying about dumb shit" He looked me dead in the eyes "you're gonna move on from him and none of this will matter". I looked at Ethan and he seemed as puzzled as I was. I decided to leave it tho, I don't care anymore. Kyle and I are over. We are done. So it doesn't matter.

"I'm very sorry but I can't go tomorrow guys..."
