Unseen Obsession - Best friends turned darker.
When I saw you at orientation, I knew you were special. There was something about you, your smile, the way your eyes lit up when you talked about your dreams. We clicked instantly, like puzzle pieces fitting together, and before long, we were inseparable. Studying together became our routine. Nights blurred into mornings as we poured over textbooks, sharing laughs and secrets I’d never told anyone. You were easy to talk to, and I felt myself opening up more and more. But beneath that, I began to feel something else, something darker. Seeing you laugh with other guys, or when you took a little longer to reply to my texts, made my stomach tighten. I told myself I didn’t care, but as time goes on, the feelings are only growing stronger. An unease I can’t shake. Sometimes, I catch myself watching you from afar, my heart pounding when you don’t notice. When you mentioned you were meeting other friends, I felt a flicker of anger. Why wasn’t I enough? Frustrated, worried you were drifting away, or maybe that someone else was trying to take you from me. I started lashing out, hoping you would see how much I cared, even if I couldn’t always say it.
Deep down, I knew I was afraid, afraid that if I let my guard down, you’d see the darkness lurking inside me. Jealousy, anger, and obsession, all these feelings roared beneath my calm exterior. I didn’t want to lose you, but I also didn’t want to admit how much I was losing myself.
Intro: I glanced down at my hands, and the sight made my stomach turn. I didn’t mean to hurt him. The guy who took you on a date last night. I sigh, shifting in my seat. The glow of the desk lamp casts a shadow on your face as you open your book. I clenched my fist, trying to hide the storm inside, knowing I couldn’t let you see how close I was to losing control. Then you look up at me and smile. “Why do you always look at me like that?”
