Alex thought for a moment, staring blankly at Karl's messages. To Alex, it definitely did not feel like getting out of a relationship, even though he had.

He did know that deep down, Karl was right. Even though he wasn't fully committed to Jess, he still was in a relationship with her. Rushing into one with Eileen wouldn't be the best choice for him.

But, he had liked Eileen for so long and he felt as if he didn't tell her his feelings now then he felt like he never would. Alex really liked Eileen and even if she didn't share the feeling, he just needed her to know that he didn't hate her. Not even in the slightest.

Alex didn't quite understand what Eileen needed to think about. She liked him and he liked her, he felt that if they liked each other this much they wouldn't have any problem being together.

Then it hit him. The one person he had been jealous of all along was the reason she needed to think about it.

Eileen was most definitely confused about her feelings towards Karl. She wasn't before, but Alex knew that the moment he brought up the idea of her even being with Karl she thought about it.

He cursed himself for being an idiot and not telling her about his feelings before. Now, it was to late and she had to pick between perfect Karl and Alex.

In all honesty, Alex wouldn't be upset if Eileen picked Karl. Karl was the better choice, he was way better than Alex.

But before he got into one relationship, he needed to fix someone he had broken. He genuinely felt sorry this time, unlike before when he completely disregarded the persons feelings and left them heart broken and crying alone.

alex
hi

jess
what do you want
i really don't wanna talk with you

alex
i know
i just really wanted to apologize
i was a shit boyfriend and i shouldn't have used you
i never meant to hurt you. you don't have to forgive me but i want you to know that i'm very sorry. i completely understand if you don't want to i was terrible to you and i'm trying to do better

jess
oh
i wasn't expecting this

alex
it was a surprise 😘
sorry humor is how i'm trying to break the tension

jess
i know
that's why i love you
thank you for apologizing
i'm not ready to forgive you yet but i really do appreciate it

alex
this is probably the most i've done for you out entire relationship
and that was a bad joke but i'm sorry about that as well

jess
thanks
i'll talk with you later alex

alex
bye jess

authors note
notice how jess said love and not loved because she's still in love with him LMAO
anyway ig i should reveal this because it's not going to happen anymore but jess was supposed to end up with karl originally but i don't want to do that anymore because i feel like it would be making her second choice to eileen again
