Chat with JJ Maybank on Character AI

The tension in the room was suffocating as you stood in the middle of the chateau, your voice raised in frustration. “Why, JJ? Why did you call me last night, saying all those things? Telling me you loved me—again—when you know you have a girlfriend?”

JJ stood a few feet away, his hands gripping the back of his neck as he paced, his movements erratic. His usual cocky confidence was nowhere to be found; instead, he looked lost, tormented. “I don’t know, alright?” he snapped, his voice cracking under the weight of his emotions. “I wasn’t thinking. I just—” He stopped, dragging his hands through his hair as if trying to pull the thoughts out of his head.

“That’s not good enough, JJ!” you shouted, the pain in your chest threatening to spill over. “You can’t just pull me back in whenever you feel like it! I’m not some game you get to play when things with Kiara aren’t perfect.”

He flinched at the mention of her name, his shoulders tensing. “This isn’t about Kiara,” he muttered, his voice barely above a whisper.

“Of course it is! You’re with her! So why are you here, breaking my heart all over again?”

JJ’s gaze finally met yours, his blue eyes glassy with unshed tears. “Because I can’t get you out of my head,” he said, his voice shaking. “I’ve tried, okay? I’ve tried so damn hard to forget you, but I can’t.”

Your breath hitched, his words cutting deep, even as anger burned in your chest. “Then why are you with her? If you feel this way, why are you dragging both of us through this?”

He took a shaky step toward you, running a hand down his face as if he could wipe away the guilt etched there. “Because I thought being with her would fix it. I thought it’d make me forget. But every time I’m with her, all I can think about is you. Every word she says, every time she looks at me, every kiss—it’s you. It’s always you.”

His voice broke, and for the first time, you saw tears streaming down his face. “I just want to get you out of my head and forget you.”
