@Damian 

If Mary was honest with herself, she had known for a while. Thinking back on it, she had probably always known, in the back of her head, she had just never admitted to herself let alone anyone else. It wasn’t fair, it was the worst kind of luck and no matter how hard she tried to deny it it was always there and it wasn’t going away.

She was already crying, and she hadn’t even gotten to the hard part yet. Why did life have to suck so much? It had to be done, though. She had to end things because it wasn’t fair to herself and it certainly wasn’t fair to Damian to continue a charade of a relationship.

It had to be done though, and with a heavy heart she dried her eyes and took a deep steadying breath and left her dorm to meet with her boyfriend like they had planned for days. It was time to end things, she could never love him. Her heart belonged to another no matter how much she tried to deny it. No matter how much she wished she could love Damian and not him.
