my best friends girlfriend

Open your eyes

He fell silent

"Ariana was happy with you. She actually loved and cared for you, but you threw it all away from some random fuck" I said

"She wasn't random" he spoke suddenly

"What?" I asked

"She wasn't random" he repeated

Those words alone caused my blood to boil

"Who is she?" I asked

"Remember Katherine from high school?" He asked

He didn't

"Oh wow. Good to know she's still a slut" I scoffed

"Don't call her that" he said

"Wow look at you so quick to defend her, but when there are articles about Ariana, you never rush to her side that quick" I told him

"I do" he tried to defend

"No you don't, it's always me!" I exclaimed

"Well no one told you to do that" he said

"You're right, but I do it because I actually care, because I want to" I told him

"I care, I just wasn't as cool with the amount of attention she drew as I thought I was" he admitted

"And that was pretty obvious from day one" I said

"Listen, I just came to apologize to you and then you go and switch it to be about Ariana" he said

"Because none of this would be happening if you didn't cheat on Ariana!" I exclaimed

"Well now she left me so we never have to worry about this happening again!" He raised his voice

"And now I have to fix what you fucked up" I said

"You don't have to fix shit" he said

"A decent person would" I told him

"You know what I think? I think you're secretly happy that Ariana and I broke up" he said

"And why would I be happy about that? Because I like seeing her cry and I like losing a best friend who I've known since the womb?" I asked sarcastically

"Don't act like you don't know" he said

"You sound crazy right now" I said

"Open your eyes, Y/n. The way she looks at you, the way you look at her. The way she clings to you, the way you cling to her. She never ever looked or clinged to me like that. Whenever you talk, she looks at you like you say the most interesting things in the world. Like your words alone touch her. You can just see it in her eyes" he explained

I laughed

"Don't even try to deny it. Hell I would be shocked if you two haven't already done something, even if you just shared a kiss here and there" he said

I was feeling very called out, but I couldn't let him know that

"And the way you look at her. You give her the same look she gives you. How do you think I felt when I finally caught on to that?" He asked

"I don't know, because I have no idea what you're talking about!" I told him in a obvious tone

"I knew the second she told me she was going to stay with you the first time I left that I would be screwed" he continued

"Which is why you screwed someone else the second time you left?" I questioned

"Is that all you can think of right now?" He asked
