Ink's POV

I spun my pencil around my hand as I tried to think of something to draw. Error and I were sitting in the restaurant while eating lunch. I was in a good mood today as I was able to spend time with my best friend.

  Error waited for a few seconds at the counter before coming back with a tray. I put my sketchbook away and began eating.

  My friend checked his phone for notifications once he sat down. His voice caught my attention.

Error: Martina invited me to eat dinner at the fancy restaurant next to the movie theater. She also wants you to join us. Since she wants to get to know you.

  I felt my mood drop instantly when her name was mentioned. I felt my control slip slightly, feeling myself show a dislikable expression. Luckily, Error was too focused on his phone to notice.

  He seemed happy to be invited so I sighed in defeat. I moved my hand to get Error to look at me.

Me: "Yeah. I can join you."

  Error smiled as he quickly texted Martina back.

Error's POV

  I slipped on my suit in a rushed manner. I couldn't help but feel nervous. However, I didn't feel nervous about seeing Martina. I felt nervous about what Ink would think about my attire.

  Walking out of my bathroom, I saw Ink sitting on his bed. He was dressed in a black suit. I felt my cheeks become warm.

Me: I-Ink.

  He turned off his phone, interesting in what I had to say.

Me: Does it this look good?

  He smiled and nodded, causing me to smile. We exited our dorm once were ready and walked to Ink's car.

  A half of a hour had passed when we pulled into the parking lot of the restaurant. We stepped out of the car. Ink looked a the ground as we entered through the front doors.

  I saw Martina sitting at a table. She was wearing a rose red dress and black high heels. Her naturally curly brown hair was straightened out and she wore a light layer of makeup.

  She stood up when she noticed us at the entrance. As Martina approached us, I prepared to kiss her on the cheek. However, she pulled my suit and locked our lips.

  My eyes widened as I was surprised. I couldn't understand why I felt so uncomfortable. I desperately wanted to pull away. I looked at Ink but saw him avoiding eye contact.

  She let go with a confused expression. She seemed to notice that I didn't return the kiss but chose not to acknowledge it.

She led us to the table. There was already a bottle of wine and appetizers.

After sitting down, I talked with Martina. I felt happy just talking with her as a friend. However, the thought of dating her unsettled me.

Ink's POV

I sat there in silence. Martina seemed to get closer to Error. He smiled at her as she held his hand.

I couldn't take it anymore. I needed to leave.

Tapping Error on the shoulder, I raised my hands to speak.

Me: "I'm going to the restroom."

Error: Oh... okay.

I pushed my chair back and stood up to leave the table. I walked quickly to the restroom.

Luckily, it was single person restroom. Locking the door behind me, I stood motionless for a minute.

Black tears began to fall from my eyes. I leaned my head against the door.

'I don't know why I even agreed on coming here. It's clear that Error is going to date Martina. I'm just getting in the way.'

I wiped my tears with my sleeve.

'I need to transfer colleges. I should back to my home town and live with mom.'

Once my tears were cleaned away. I unlocked the door. Peeking from the door, I checked to see if Error could see me.

When I saw that he wasn't, I headed straight for the door and...

Exited the building
