(Dracos POV)

My palms began to sweat as i paced the corridor wondering if i've made the right decision. I loosened my tie before leaning against the wall to try and even my breathing. I know i shouldn't but i want both of them. But.... i can't keep stringing them along. Arias right this needs to end tonight.

Mak has always been there for me. Holding my hand, kissing me, doing all the shit a good girlfriend should do. Aria is a pain in the ass, always getting mad at me, teasing me, but i think that's what i like about her.

I heard footsteps coming down the hall so I knew she was here. "Hey," I said.

She looked up at me through her long eyelashes and whispered, "Hey.."

"This whole...thing needs to end tonight, so i've made my decision."

Her blue eyes widened as she nodded.

I gulped before saying, "Mak, you've always been there for me. Always sending me notes and just being a good girlfriend in general. Do you remember how I said I think I've always known I liked Aria? Well... I think i've always known that about you too."

I watched as the corners of her mouth lifted. "But....you're just too perfect. It's like you'd lay down and grovel at my feet if i asked you to. Mak... she's different."

I watched as a tear fell from the corner of her eye. I put my hand on her face and wiped it away. "Y'know it's funny, but i kinda thought that it'd always be me that you chose," she whispered.

"When you and I kiss there's no spark there anymore, but when me and Aria kiss-"

"You kissed her?"

I hesitated before nodding, "Yeah I did."

"Do you love her?"

"Yeah... I think I do."

"D-Do you love me?"

"I love you Kenz, but I'm just not in love with you anymore... I'm sorry."

Her eyes began to well up, and she grabbed her heart as if she were physically in pain. She let out a loud sob as i turned to go. She grabbed my hands and rested her head on my back. "Please don't go."

My eyes began to water; I closed them. My head swayed down and to the side depicting the sorrow and shame I felt. My hands tightened on hers as I pulled her closer to my back. Then, after struggling to take several breaths, she said, even more quietly:

"I really love you."

My heart flipped over in my chest. I suck. I really love her too. But... I cant keep doing this. I cant keep hurting everyone just because i cant make a decision.

We sat in silence for several moments until I heard her sobbing quiet down. I removed my hands from hers before turning around and staring into her eyes. Her beautiful eyes were bloodshot and her face was tear-streaked. Seeing her like this and knowing it's because of me made me feel like absolute shit. I kissed her forehead before whispering, "Goodbye Kenz."

I walked away and let the tears begin to fall.
