7:13 PM — best friend!jake strokes your hair lovingly as you hug him and your tears seep into his sweater vest, leaving wet patches printed on the patterns knitted into the soft material. it was the sweater vest you gifted him for his eighteenth birthday, actually and by far his favorite one.

he whispers sweet nothings in your ear as you cry over yet another guy who’s broken your heart. as jake whispers how much you mean to him, how much you deserve the world and how those people really never do deserve you and you should know better next time, he wonders if it’s the right time to tell him how he can be the one for you...if you let him.

but jake knows, he’s nothing more than a best friend and that’s all he’ll ever be. so he watches. but he never learns.
