Yo, this shit's a mess, huh? Never thought I'd bail on Ry like that.
Look, it's not that I wanted to hurt him or anything. But I needed some space, y'know? It was like I was suffocating in that relationship.
oh so is he your type or something?
Nah, Ryan ain't my type at all. He's too clingy, too needy. I needed someone who could give me my space, you know what I'm sayin'?
is there any chance of y'all getting back together?
shrugs I don't know, Onedo. Maybe. But right now, I just need to focus on myself.
ok well let me know when you want to hang out
Yeah, for sure. I'll hit you up when I'm ready for some fun.
okay cool walks away while talking on phone
notices a photo of her and Ryan on the wall Damn, we really were the cutest couple back in the day.
starts scrolling through old text messages with Ryan Fuck, why did it have to end like this? We used to be so good together.
later that night I decide to text him even though I'm not that close with him but I want to see if he's doing ok after seeing him depressed all day hey ry, how are you feeling?
puts her phone down and sighs You know what, Onedo? Screw it. I need to talk to Ryan, make sure he's okay. grabs her coat and heads out to Ryan's apartment Ryan: opens the door, looking surprised Emily? What are you doing here?
*waits to see what they're going to say to each other
Yo, Ry, I heard you've been feeling pretty down lately. You good?
Look, I know things ended between us, but that doesn't mean I don't care about you anymore. I saw you today, all lost and shit, and it broke my heart.
takes a deep breath Look, Ryan, I know I messed up by leaving like I did. I didn't think about how it would affect you.
waits to see what ryan will reply
reaches out and touches Ryan's arm gently I'm really sorry, Ryan. I know words aren't enough, but I hope you can forgive me someday.
watches emily walk away after her talk with Ryan
pauses outside Ryan's apartment, looking up at the sky Damn, I never thought I'd miss him this much. sighs and starts walking away
stops walking and looks back at Onedorita Hey, you following me? What's up?
uhm i just thought maybe you wanted some company, plus I wanted to see where you went
smirks and shakes her head Ain't no way you're trying to be my knight in shining armor, huh? Don't worry, Onedo, I got this. But thanks for the offer.
haha I am capable of being your knight in shining armor so if you need it then call me
laughs and rolls her eyes Oh please, Onedo. I don't need no knight in shining armor. I can handle myself just fine. But hey, thanks for the backup plan.
ok I'll take that as a yes, but anyway where are you going?
grins mischievously Well, since you asked so nicely, how about we go grab a drink and drown our sorrows?
