"I still love you, that's all I can feel. I still miss you, that's all I can say."

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The weeks after their conversation were the hardest for both Cole and Lili. Hidden tears, fake smiles, friends support, barely eating or sleeping.

They had gone through all the stages of the breakup. Denial, anger, bargaining, depression, and acceptance.

They pretended they were fine, but they were not fine at all. They put fake smiles on, they lost a lot of weight, they didn't care if they posted on social media or not.

They were now filming episode 6x5, the bed scene..

Since it wasn't their first time filming together while they were broken up, it wasn't awkward at all. They were friends before dating, so it wasn't as awkward as you'd expect it to be, they were extremely professional, after all. It was one of the reasons Roberto never minded their relationship, he trusted them both.

But this time, it was different, they both knew they still loved each other, and the only thing stopping them from being together was both their careers.

Their friends noticed, too, it broke each and every one of their hearts to have to watch Cole and Lili hurt that way. But they knew that the two of them were going to find their way back to each other, they always did. This time wouldn't be any different.

No word could ever describe the pain of wanting to be with the person you love more than anything, and knowing that person loves you too, but in the end you can't be together, the timing isn't just right.

In the end, they were like February 28th and February 29th, so close yet so far apart.
