Kio Cyr Imagines

My Ex

A/n: I just wanna thank you guys for reading rn. I know 250 reads isn't much and i kinda just started, but I still love each and every one of u.

Y/n POV
I reread my full-ride scholarship to the California Institute of the Arts. I was finally moving up in the world! Washington was nice, but moving to California and starting acting had always been my dream. I had already told my parents, who were still worried about me being pretty much on my own, I told my best friend who was going to another college in California, I told close relatives, and all my other friends. Now I had to tell my boyfriend, Kio, that I would have to leave. He said that even if I got in he wouldn't go with me, but maybe I could change his mind? It would hurt me so bad to have to leave him. I throw on a simple outfit:

and head to his house, still contemplating what to say.
As I arrive I let myself in and see him playing games at a desk.
"Hey Kio," i try to sound completely normal.
"Hey y/n, what are you doing?" He asked, looking a little surprised because he didn't hear me come in.
"I wanted to see you," I say, hugging him from behind while he sits in his chair, "and I have big news!" He spins around to face me and I say, "I got a scholarship to the school! A full ride scholarship!"
"Are you kidding that's great!" He yells. He stands up to hug me, but when he pulls away he has a serious look on his face. My smile fades too as he says, "so that means you're leaving..."
"Um, yeah," I say sadly.
"I know this is what you've always wanted but are you sure there aren't any colleges here you might wanna go to?" He frowns.
"Kio, this is the school for me, and I think it'll be best in the long run. You know, for my career."
"But it won't be good for us, you know that," he says.
"I know, but maybe you could come with me?" I ask.
I see a flash of a smile, but instead he says, "I can't. I belong here right now." There is a short pause while we just look at each other sadly until he says, "we could try a long distance relationship?"
"Those hardly ever work out, especially with school in the way," I respond.
"So, is this it?" I see tears in his eyes.
"I- I think so," I say as my eyes get watery too.
"Fine, go," his mood changes quickly.
"What?"
"Go to California, but don't say it was my fault we didn't work out." He turns away from me.
"It's not either one of our faults! We aren't ready Kio! Just admit it," I start getting frustrated.
"We could be ready if you tried!" He yells back.
"I am tr-" he cuts me off.
"It doesn't matter y/n. You're leaving and I guess we're over," he sits back down on his chair and I see a few tears fall down his face.
"If we're really meant to be together then we will be someday, but I still love you Kio," I say walking out. As soon as I'm in my car I cry. He was the one thing in my life I was so sure of, and now he's gone. It's okay, I told myself, we'll graduate and it will all be worth it...

***Time Skip***

It was not worth it. I dropped almost 2 years in. It turns out, college is a lot harder than it looks. I gave up and moved on. I moved on to an app... called tiktok. I got pretty famous on it for dumb povs that I thought were funny and some dances.
I found out that Kio also happened to be tiktok famous, but it's not like I had interacted with him. I collaborated with a lot of other people like Charlie, willywonkatiktok, Larry, Kouvre, and more. Today I was going to hang out with Bryce Hall. We'd never met and I hardly knew anything about him, but hopefully it'd be fun.
"Is this is?" I pull into the driveway of a huge house. He said that some people lived with him, but this could fit 30 people. I knock on the door and Bryce answers it.
"Hey y/n come in!" He welcomes me.
"Nice house," I say, looking around.
"Oh, yeah," he guides me to a couch.
"How many people live here?" I ask, still amazed by the size.
"Including me, seven."
"Oh cool, are they here or is it just us?" I ask, sitting on the couch.
"They're all here," he says," did you wanna meet them?"
"Sure," we get up and walk into a kitchen where 4 boys sit at a table.
"Hey guys, this is y/n," he says grabbing a slice of pizza, "y/n this is griffin, Anthony, Josh, and Quinton." We all day hi and I get a glass of water.
"Where's jaden?" Bryce asks.
"I think he was taking a shower," griffin responds.
"Oh ok, and Kio?" He asks
I choke on my water, "K-kio?" I ask.
"Also in his room," Anthony says. I hear footsteps and someone walks in shirtless, it doesn't look like Kio.
"Oh shit," he says after seeing me.
"Dude put a shirt on," josh says. They all laugh.
"Imma go get Kio," griffin says. All I could do was hope that it wasn't the Kio I knew. Sure it's not a very common name, but what are the odds that my ex Kio was here.
Griffin walks back in with someone. He's on his phone so I can't see his face clearly. "Kio this is y/n," griffin sits back down. Kio stops and looks back. Yup, that's definitely Kio Cyr.
"You good," quinton asks.
"Uh yeah, it's nice to see you y/n," he hesitantly walks over.
"Mhm, you look good," I say.
"Thanks..." he says. We just stand there for a while, it's really awkward.
"I'm back!" Jaden walks back in with a shirt on this time. We all talk for almost an hour. I keep catching Kio staring at me. He tries to hide it, but even back in high school I could feel his eyes on me. Everyone slowly starts to leave until it's just me, Bryce, and Kio.
"Are you ready to start the video?" Bryce asks.
"Sure."
"I'll go set up," he walks away leaving me and Kio.
"So what are you doing here?" He asks.
"Making a video," I thought that was clear, "what are you doing here?"
"I live here," he says like it was obvious.
"ok," there is a long silent pause, "I guess we should just try to stay out of each others way."
"I don't want to avoid you," he says, "we haven't seen each other in years and you just want to ignore me?"
"I don't know Kio, this is just awkward," I start to walk toward Bryce's room.
"Y/n!" He calls me, "I always regretted walking away from us. I never forgave myself for letting you go," he said sadly.
Me too, I think, but instead I say, "there's no us anymore," I say walking away, "besides, I thought you had a girlfriend." It still hurt me, but I had to do it. That's what I tell myself at least.
About two hours later me and Bryce finished the video. I ended up doing his makeup.
We walk out and I realize it's already 10 pm. I hated driving in the dark. It was as if Bryce could read my mind because he said, "it's kinda late. If you want you can crash here."
"Ya thanks." I grab some other stuff I left in my car. I change into the spare pajamas I keep in there:

Bryce had set up some blankets on the couch and told me where bathrooms and stuff are and said I could watch tv if I wanted. I ended up watching avatar.
I'm almost asleep but then the light turns on.
"Hey," I hear Kio. Great.
"Hi," I say as he sits down by me, "do you mind turning off the light?"
He ignores me, "can we talk?"
"About what?"
"About... this," he signals the both of us.
"It's over," i get a little irritated. "This," I do the same signal, "doesn't exist. And you're dating someone."
"No I'm not," he said sadly, "we broke up."
"Oh."
"So, can we talk?"
"I don't know," I sigh, "maybe in the morning when I'm not about to pass out."
"Oh ok," he gets up, "Goodnight."
"Night. And turn the light off!" I drift off to sleep.
I wake up to voices in the kitchen. I walk in and see everyone up and talking at-I check the time- 9 in the morning? These guys had way too much energy. I walk in slowly, sit down, and rest my head on my hand. I know they are staring at me but whatever.
"Are you hungry?" Kio asks.
"It depends on what you have to eat."
"Uh, waffles, captain crunch, Frosted Flakes-"
"Frosted Flakes?" I cut him off. He tells me where they are and I happily sit down with my bowl of cereal.
"I'm gonna hang out with Avani today," Anthony says starting to walk away, "is anyone else tryna come to hype?" Soon Griffin, Josh, Bryce, and Jaden are in the car.
I am left alone in the kitchen. Until Kio and quinton walk in talking.
"Oh hey," quinton says, "I didn't know you were still here."
"Yeah I spent the night, but I'm leaving now so..." I rinse my bowl and grab my keys.
"Are you sure you don't wanna hang out?" Kio asks, "if your not busy today."
"I guess, what did you guys wanna do," I ask.
"Actually, I gotta be... somewhere. So you two are on your own," he nudges Kio before leaving too.
"You told him didn't you?" I ask
"Yeah. I told him not to bring it up too," he scratches the back of his neck. "Did you still wanna hang out?"
"Sure, and I'm assuming you still wanna talk," I respond.
"Come sit down," he pays the couch.
There is a long pause until Kio says, "I tried to call you that night. To apologize. I never should've said that. It wasn't your fault and I should've known that. I just couldn't come with you."
"I know," I look down, "I should've known that you had responsibilities there. I was stupid. The school didn't work out anyway." I smile faintly
"I never stopped," he says
"What?"
"I never stopped loving you," He said.
"I didn't stop either," I admit.
"Can we try again?" He asks.
"I don't know, we've both changed so much."
"Hey, you said if we were meant to be together we would be again someday. Just give it a chance."
"We can go on one date and see how it goes," I say, kinda happy
"YES!" He hugs me tightly, "I mean, cool cool." He pulls away and I smile at him.
"How's Friday?" I ask.
"Friday's good. I'll pick you up at 8," he says.
"Okay just lemme give you my number," I put it in his phone and give it back.
"Y/n."
"Hm?"
"Thanks," he says. I just smile.
"I think I'll go home now."
"Ok," he opens the door for me.
As I drive away I can't help but be exited for Friday. I would just hope it goes well.
