That’s Not Me

Maybe it's better this way.

What are you saying?

I'm saying it's better you found out this way.

Are you guys about done? I want dessert.

Shut up, bitch.

Stop it, Darryl. It's better this way.

How is this better? How is any of this better?

Sweetie, please, I wanted to tell you. Actually, I came to break up with her, but it's better that you know now.

You were going to what? I thought you loved me, Allison.

I don't know who I love. I mean, Darryl makes me extremely happy and he is... well, was my best friend. Shannon, you're beautiful and I love hanging out with you. I mean I love both of you but not in that way. I tried and tried. I even started hitting myself with a rubber band every time I couldn't. I just... can't.

Don't cry, sweetie.

I swear I didn't mean for anyone to get hurt. I didn't mean to cheat on you. She just kissed me, and I didn't want to lose my friend.

You could've stopped me.

That would hurt you. We both know it. I hadn't even told you about Darryl.

How serious is it?

We live together.

Oh... Ally, you know you can tell me anything.

The last time I told someone this happened...

Oh my gosh! They burned you?

Why didn't you show me this before, Ally?

So you can laugh and say this is what I get? No thank you. That's the last time I've ever trusted someone with my secret.

So you knew?

Well yeah! There's only so many times I can have someone's tongue down my pants and feel nothing.

Is it like fear?

No. It's just uncomfortable. Like, when we get into it, I just want it to stop.

That's why you don't want to.

I didn't know people could do that. Sex is so wonderful.

Not for me. It's just not my thing.

So do you not want to be with me anymore too?

Of course I want you, Darryl. I still love being with you and being kissed and stuff. I just don't really want sex ever. I know that isn't what you want. I doubt you even want to be here right now.

Well you were holding hands with some random chick. I love you Allison. We can make this work.

I can't deal with this...

What?

You just dumped me for this ugly ass dude?And you can't even have sex? Listen, I'm sorry you got burned or whatever but I just can't do this. Don't call me anymore.

I can't believe she just...

Don't worry, sweetie. I'm still here. You deserve better than that anyway.
