A kind of love

This is a short story about two lovers and a girl who wants to break them up. This story is told by a friend of them, so me. It´s really pretty short. Please read and review!!

I always thought that love would survive everything, but there I was wrong. For me they were the defination of love, my two best friends Jake and Susan. They knew each other long since they started dating. All the time they were just friends, best friends in case. They were the perfect couple and we were all relieved when they finally ´hooked up´. But then we got a new member in our group, Valerie. At first she was nice and everything, we all liked her. Then all of sudden she broke up with her boyfriend. Sure, it is no big deal to break up with someone but she always told us how much she loved him and she thought of a future with him, so her decision surprised us. I didn´t say anything but I had the strange feeling that it had something to do with Jake. She always looked at him lovingly and she was always close to him but I thought that I just imagined this stuff and stopped thinking about it. Suddenly Jake and Susan began to fight a lot, and then they couldn´t be in the room without fighting. I was the only one who knew that Valerie tried to break them up, I was too scared to tell anyone. And I am not even sure if they had believed me. When I came home one day, I lived with Susan, I saw her sitting on the couch crying.Without asking her I knew what had happened. I heard her saying bad things about Jake and some about Valerie. I just listened or agreed with her. But in my head everything was spinning. Though I knew that to an affair belonged two people I felt like it was just Valerie´s fault. But then an other thought entered my mind, it was neither Jake´s nor Valerie´s fault, it was mine. That sure sounds silly, but I knew what Valerie wanted to do, I could have told Jake and Susan, but I didn´t. I began to cry. Susan looked at me, wondering but I kept crying. Their relationship was something important for me, very important. So it was like Jake had cheated on me too. From this day on we all didn´t get to see Jake anymore, he had decided to move back to his parents. Without him we, and especially Susan, were a complete mess. Though it was hard we kept the group together. The time passed and Susan met an other man, George. She fell in love with him, deeply. But though she got married to him and they got wonderful kids, yeah and even she was happy I knew that she would have been happier with the love of her life, Jake. I destroyed it for her and him, just because I was scared. I destroyed love between two people who were meant to be together for the rest of their lifes. No one ever blamed me for that, but when I looked in the eyes of their little boy, whose father didn´t know that he existed, I could see my fault. These two people meant the world for me and they meant the world for each other, and though no one died, I killed.
