💔don't leave-Jeff x Rachael

Jeff's pov:
I walk through Lauren's kitchen to see Rachael, I smile, I always love seeing her, I walk over.

"Hey Rach" I began with a smile, she looked down, my smile faded "what's wrong?" I ask "...Jeff, I'm leaving StarKid, I'm trying to put this all behind me, I broke up with Matt well he broke up with me and it's just gonna be awkward and I don't want to make things awkward-" Rachael began I couldn't believe what I was hearing, Rachael leaving StarKid? I couldn't bear the thought "Rach, please...don't leave" I said in a begging tone I know whatever I said wouldn't matter to her, she made up her mind.

"I'm sorry Jeff, but you have my number and any social I may have, so we can still talk occasionally" she tried to sound upbeat but she was upset as well "all because Matt broke up with you? Please Rachael! This is so silly you are one of the most loved members of StarKid you can't just leave there's so many projects going to happen you're gonna love them all we're gonna do this musical called 'the guy who didn't like musicals' I mean honestly I made the music again! Please I'm begging you... stay...don't go!" I continue begging her, I know it's stupid to be so upset about her leaving StarKid, but it mattered to me, what made it worse was she's gonna go search for a better job something like Broadway and that means we'll barely ever have time to message!! I'm worried about our friendship I'm worried about my feelings for her...not...not romantic ones although I can't deny that they are there.

She sighs, I look at her with tears brimming my eyes "Jeff, I...I...I'm sorry, honestly I don't think it's that big of a deal, I'll leave StarKid and I'll do something else." She explains I feel like punching myself over and over for ever having feelings for her! She's pathetic. She and Matt break up and everything goes to shit.

"Please," my pleas will go nowhere, nothing will ever work she's made up her mind and she is one stubborn woman.

"Wh.. What about us?" I ask, without thinking! "us?" She questions "us. Like... like-" I don't dare finish my sentence, she looks at me expectantly, I don't dare speak, she looks confused.

"Jeff, what do you mean?" Rachael asks, she looks concerned, I huff, trying to find the right words "I... I love you Rachael, and I don't want you to leave StarKid because it means that we'll barely ever see each other, I didn't say anything before because I didn't want to ruin your relationship with Matt but turns out, you guys broke up and now you're just set on leaving? It's not fair honestly, what about everybody else? The fans?" I say without thinking again even though I prepped my words in my brain, they didn't come out that way, I look up at her, she looks shocked, it was so obvious that I liked her even fans could tell!

"..Je...Jeff" is all she says I can tell she doesn't like me back, I scoff at my own stupidity, I walk off and before Rachael can even grasp my wrist I'm gone.

Rachael's pov:
I was shocked at Jeff's confession as normal people would be, I loved him too, I just needed to process it but before I could say anything to him, he had stormed off, my eyes brim with tears, I know I have to go now, Matt and I broke up, Jeff and I are unrequited it would just be awkward and I hate awkwardness. I quickly leave Lauren's apartment, and I never come back, to StarKid or Jeff.
