Koa
He wants her to want to be there for him, wants her to want him, wants to be wanted. Wants to reach up and touch her cheek, to press his forehead against hers and drown in her clean, earthy scent. Koa doesn't want her to lose him, because he doesn't want to be lost.
But you decided that, not me. Except she didn't, not entirely. She gave him an in and he shut it down, told he he wouldn't be sloppy seconds. She chose Jude---
---except she didn't. Because they broke up.
"Oh." For once in his life, Koa is speechless, his handsome face blank and slack. We broke up, we broke up rattles around his head, bounces through an emptiness he just can't seem to fill. He stares at Soh for a second, two, blinking, utterly taken aback. And then in true young and stupid himbo fashion he blurts the first thing that pops up onto his tongue, well before he's able think it through--
"Was it because of me?"

i can't decide if it's a choice, getting swept away
