You were hunched over, sitting down on the couch, in the middle of Jim, John, and Robby. You were just dumped by your old boyfriend, Peter.

"Everything'll be alright." Jim whispered in your ear. He rubbed your back softly.

"Just breathe." John murmured. "And relax. Here have one." He handed you a lit cigarette, taking in gratefully. You leaned back, letting the smoke drift into the atmosphere.

You opened your eyes, seeing Ray, looking nervous, holding a bundle of flowers. His glasses were crooked on his face and a stressed smile painted on his lips.

"Here take these." He handed them to me. "Thanks Ray. How'd you know roses were my favourite?"

He looked down, avoid eye contact with me. "I guessed. They remind me of you."

You smiled. "Thank you, Ray." You stood up and hugged him. He dropped the flowers.

"I would love to love you Ray." You whispered. And you lead him into the bedroom.
