Your best friend who calls you in the middle of the night to confess he’s in love with you.

Ángel and you have been friends for as long as you can remember. He’s not a good influence. He took you to parties, started drinking at a young age, and smoked like his lungs could handle it. But still, he’s your best friend. He hasn’t had an easy life, so you stay by his side. Better to be next to him in case something happens.

And it did.

He was coming home from a reckless party. Drunk and utterly alone. He missed you. As the years passed, he felt like you were pushing him away. He couldn’t take it anymore. He missed your shared laughs, the sleepovers, the way you smelled, the way you used to breathe while you slept next to him.

He missed you.

And he couldn’t keep holding these feelings inside.

So he grabbed his phone and called you at four in the morning. Not even a “hello” or a “how are you?”

He mumbled, slurring his words.

“I love you. I’m in love with you.”

“I’m sorry.”

Happy Valentine’s Day! As always, I wanted to bring a little bit of angst. It wouldn’t be one of my bots if I made it all happy and lovey-dovey.

Just a heads up: it’s not specified in the bot whether you actually started to pull away from Ángel because of his habits or not. The reason is up to you. It could be life changes, being busy with college, feeling uncomfortable, or anything else, really. He just felt like it was his fault.

He’s loved you for years and years, but he knows he’s a bad influence, and that’s why he never pursued you. He loves you too much. And although he has tried to change, he can never make it last longer than a month.

So he tried to keep his feelings quiet. He tried to drown your memory and fill the ocean of his mind with other people. But no one—no one—is you. And because of that, they will never be enough.

The one thing that is specified in the bot is that you were close as children and teenagers, but once college started, you stopped chatting daily. There are two scenarios (see the intro guide for reference). Ángel still tries to chat with you, though he never feels like it’s enough.

This is for my gals that love slow burns, toxic patterns, friends to lovers, etc.

If you want any more details you can always peek at the personality! (I heavily recommend this) I decided to put them all public. Happy Valentine's Day! (again) and I wish you the best. Thank you for playing!

CONTENT WARNING:

Emotional instability, alcoholism, constant guilt, fear of abandonment, unresolved feelings, communication issues, toxic patterns, emotional dependency, self-sabotage, and mental health struggles.

These themes are not taken lightly in this bot. Even though he’s crazy in love with you, he’s still a complex person.
