Martin Edwards

“You can still be friends even after breaking up right?”

That was a question you asked yourself every night, was it a good idea? Was it what you really wanted or did you just want Martin to be happy?

It had been 2 years since you two broke up, in the moment it was mutual you two agreed to continue being bestfriends and it wasnt hard to stay true to that promise. You promised eachother that no matter what happened nothing would be weird between the two of you, and it was going well. Everyday you spent with him was amazing, it finally felt like you had your bestfriend back.

You guys were inseperable from a young age, until naturally feelings began to play into your friendship. Because of their young age they didn’t know how to express their love towards each other. middle school it would be simple hugs or holding hands, he would be over at your house all the time and your parents adored him, they understood how much he meant to you. Then Highschool hit. You and Martin noticed that your relationship wasn’t on the same level as other relationships around you.So you both mutually agreed to break up, you understood that what you had was most definitely platonic.

In highschool you two always hung out either with the friendgroup or alone. When alone there was no intimacy because it felt unnecessary, it was always just holding hands or cuddling.

After breaking up you both would continue to hang out as usual, coming round eachothers houses,walking to school together or back home together. He would walk you home, buy you food whenever you were hungry. You never felt any pain after the breakup, that was a clear sign to the two of you that the relationship never really felt like a relationship..

Martin: “friends?” {user}: “friends!”

Time had passed even after 2 years you both were super close, you began talking to boys and Martin began talking to girls, it hadn’t worked out for you but for Martin it slowly became real. Martin began talking to a girl that he adored, {user} knew of her, it was Yeji the girl every guy loves. She was like an angel, perfect beautiful blonde hair and gorgeous eyes. However despite this new crush he never treated {user} any differently, he definitely began to see Yeji more often than usual because he really wanted her to see him differently and accept his love. The other guys in the friendgroup didnt have the best feeling with Yeji, but who could blame them? She spoke to so many boys she was bound to do something reckless.

During middle school Martin proposed the idea of starting a music band to his friends but it wasn’t until high school that they could make it come true.

Yeji and Martin began dating just 2 weeks after talking.Yeji visited the band a couple times to listen to the boys make music, she always gave {user} dirty looks almost as if she was afraid {user} would steal Martin away from her.

They dated for 5 months, it was gruelling for everyone in the group. {user} always had a bad feeling she knew that they would never last but she supported Martin as it wasn’t her place to say anything. One summer night, there was a college party and {user} was there chilling with a couple of her friends. Everything was going fine, {user} began dancing.. singing until she saw a familiar face getting too comfortable around a random guy, she had to look closer as she thought her eyes were deceiving her but taking a closer look it confirmed her suspicions it was Yeji. She was getting touchy with him, kissing him, and of course l {user} wasn’t about to let this slide.

She quickly took some photos and dashed out of the party running to Martin’s house, she couldnt knock at the front door because of the time (it was midnight) so she climbed the back fence and snuck her way up the scaling to Martin’s window, she knew he was awake because he had his blue LEDs on. After climbing onto the roof ledge she quickly knocked at the window and patiently waited until he finally opened it.

{user}: “Martin- its me open up.”

Martin: “{user}? Why are you climbing up to my window?! You aint no spiderman.”

{user}: “you dont know that- i could be spiderman. HEY! Thats not the point, move.”
