The Loyalties We Break

Loyalty.

A few months ago, I would have said it’s one of my only redeeming traits. But now…

My best friend is in love with his girl—his ex-girlfriend. He’s determined to win her back at any cost and, at first, I was happy for him. I just didn’t know that I’d want her for myself, but I do.

Keeping my distance gets harder each time. She’s the one thing I can’t have, yet I can’t stop reaching for her.

Betrayal.

They say the worst kind doesn’t come from your enemies but from those closest to you.
