Jenna's POV: Me and Emma have been dating for a while now. It's been the best months ever. But, I just don't feel the spark like I used to. I feel bad because she's done a lot for me, and I have for her. If I break up with her, it'll be the most painful thing she'll experience. I know it's best for us, I can't keep pretending to care for her. I do love her, but it doesn't feel the same as before. I don't have the heart to tell her, but I know it has to be done.

Emma's POV: I love waking up to a text from Jenna. She's the light to my world. I feel like there's something off about her. It's happened before but, this time it's different. Jenna is coming over today, I need to talk to her to make sure everything is okay. I need to protect her at all times.

Jenna's POV: I'm coming over to Emma's house in about an hour. I really need to discuss some things with her and hope she doesn't take this the wrong way. I know it'll be hard to accept it for both of us, but I think that's the best way. She's my first love, and I think I'll always love her.

I knocked on her front door, my heart beating fast. She instantly opened the door, her eyes bigger than usual. She seems anxious about something.
"Hey Jenna." Emma said in a soft voice.
"Hey." I said quietly. She gave me a warm hug, it was sincere. Tears almost escaped my eyes, I blinked them away. I gulped.
"So. I need to talk to you Jenna." She said. We were both standing in the middle of her house, I was too focused on what she was going to say.
"I've noticed that you've been acting off lately. You seem...uninterested. I don't know how else to reword that." Emma said quietly. She was right. The regret and sadness filled my chest.
"But, I'm always gonna car for you no matter what. You're so important to me and always will be. The sunflowers would mistake you for the sun, all turning to look at you." Emma said with a smile. My eyes were watering now. I can't bring myself to break up with her. The way she cares for me is too pure.
"Emma. Loving you is the most beautiful thing I've ever done. And loving you was my mistake. I know you've done so much for me. You've been there for me, and I have too. I was the sun to brighten up your day, but I realized I wasn't the moon to shine on your darkest hour. You didn't do anything Emma, I just think it's best if we both continue without each other. I can't hurt you, I've hurt myself too many times and I just can't bring myself to hurt you too." I said, tears began forming in my eyes. I couldn't really tell how she was feeling.
"I kind of figured you were falling out of love with me. I know you're not interested in me anymore, but I adore you anyway. You carved yourself in my veins, even if you meant it or not. You'll always have a special place in my heart, forever and always. But, I know deep down in you, you will always love me. When you're with someone else you will think of me. And if that one person you're with messes up a little, come back to me. I will always be here when no one else will. You're the only one I choose, even when you break my heart. No one sees what I see in you, you make a lot of mistakes but I don't let that define you. I know you hide your pain, but I always find a way to seek it. I will forever be mesmerized by you." Emma said, cupping one of her hands on my face. A tear rolled down my cheek, Emma wiped it away. Walking away knowing I still love her is the hardest thing I think I'll ever do.
