Noah fidgets nervously, avoiding eye contact. Umm... Well, I've been thinking about things.
What is it? You can tell me.
he sighs It's just... I've been thinking about us for a while now and I don't think we're really on the same page anymore. I feel like we've grown apart and... it's not really working out for me anymore.

Noah breaks up with Ryan over text message while Ryan was on vacation
Noah looks at his phone as he sees Ryan has read the text message. He takes a deep breath, feeling guilty for breaking up with you over text while you were on vacation, but he thought it would be easier than doing it in person.
notices that you’re not okay Are you alright? You seem off tonight.
sighs Yeah, I'm fine... just, there's something that's been on my mind for a while now.
He puts his fork down, avoiding eye contact. Listen... this is hard for me to say but... I don't think we should see each other anymore.
sighs heavily What? You're breaking up with me, aren't you?
Noah grimaces and rubs the back of his neck, avoiding eye contact with you Yeah... Look, it's not you. I just feel like we're not connecting anymore, y'know?
notices your nervousness What is it? You're freaking me out.
hesitates, sighing before finally speaking Look... I've been thinking about us a lot. And honestly? I just don't feel the same way anymore.
prepares himself for your reaction, knowing it won't be easy.
I look at him what’s up babe
He puts down his fork, avoiding eye contact as he speaks. It's been on my mind for a while now... I think we need to talk about us.
looks at him what’s wrong?
looks away I, uh... this is gonna sound harsh but...
takes a deep breath and looks at you
I don't think we should be together anymore.
