Closed We've Tried

[Vader Hume]

Vader had been thinking about it for a while, but he had to. He was lying to Isabbelle about his feelings and he couldn’t keep it up, it was stressing him out, tiring him to keep up the facade. He needed to break up with her, so he’d sent her a letter a few days into the break a little after Christmas had passed. He was still feeling pretty tired, the stress of this break up had interrupted the long hours of sleep he tended to get when he went home for the holidays, but he was more rested than he had been at the end of the semester. He had left the camera at home, where it was safe and no one could touch it. He knew that it would’ve been pretty tasteless of him to bring a camera to the break up, even if she didn’t know that they were breaking up. He had a coffee in his hand, but it was one of the sugary types with other things in it, he didn’t need the drink nearly as much as he had in the weeks towards the end of the semester. He was sitting on a bench, waiting for her to turn up. He was fidgeting lightly, clearly, visibly nervous. He didn’t like doing this, but he had to. He didn’t like her like he had thought he would. A part of him knew why, but he wasn’t listening to that part, it didn’t work because he didn’t like Isabelle like that, he could like a different girl like that, he could. The problem was that Isabelle wasn’t right for him and he couldn’t keep it up any more with her. ​
