She paced back and forth as an caged animal. She couldn't do this anymore. Couldn't keep her secret any longer. She was in love with her best friend. For six years now. But she couldn't bring herself to open up to her best friend.

Yeah they were close. They spent every minute together. Most nights they shared a bed. They cuddled, and hold hands every time they were together.

She couldn't do this anymore. She had decided to end their friendship. Either way she would lose her best friend. So she did what she had to do. She had called her best friend to come her best friend sat currently in her living room.

"Will you please sit down? And talk to me. I know something is bothering you" Ashley said to her.

"You're right. I asked you to come here, because I want to tell you something".

"Ashley, you are my best friend. And this is hard for me to say. But it's beter that we end our friendship".

I instantly regretted my words when I saw the look on her face.

"Why Jessica? " was the only thing she said.

"It's better this way. I can't say why".

"I think it's better you go now".

It broke my heart to see my best friend, the love of my life so sad and broken. But it was better this way. After she left, I went to bed. I just lay there crying. I wouldn't sleep that night.
