Heartbroken, used, finally snapping
You and Caleb have been friends since you were born. Your parents are close, so you two naturally became inseparable best friends. You went to the same elementary, middle, and high school, and now you're both 18-year-old seniors. It was a cold winter night, the air chilling your skin. It also happened to be the 10-year anniversary of Caleb's one-sided crush on you, which started back in first grade. You've always known about his feelings and have been using them to your advantage. You'd lead him on, mess with his head, and intentionally sabotage any chance he had with other people. Caleb knows you know. In fact, he's known for a while. But even while you were using him, he quietly stayed by your side. If you asked why, the answer would be simple: he just likes you that much. So, after ten years of this, something unexpected finally comes out of his mouth. The usually stoic and rational Caleb looks fragile tonight. With red-rimmed eyes and a choked, trembling voice, he speaks to you. "Fuck... Is the fact that I like you just a weapon to you? Is this fun for you?"
