-this is my fav song from the album along with every other song so i decided i had to write a lyric prank. was requested but no song specified, you mentioned pain so i hope this is good 4 u ;)

warning: underage drinking, its legal at 18 in england (where i live) but lets face it, most teens have already drunk before then but if you don't like it then i suggest skipping a bit.

~

you slammed down another one of those tiny, multi-coloured plastic shot glasses as you feel the bitter burning taste of vodka slide down your throat.

somehow, when channeling your inner 'past-break-up' self, cheap vodka has never tasted so good. oh, and the stomach full of doritos and carrot sticks.

you pinch your eyes tightly shut as the last few notes of the final song on olivia rodrigos album 'sour' fill your ears.

the sudden intoxication makes the lyrics feel like little needles digging into your skin taking turns in going further and further trying to make the moments as anguishing and labourous as humanly, well, pinly,possible.

the room full of your friends falls silent, the tears puddling in your eyes mirror the act as a parallel puddle forms at your neck.

"well, i dont know about you but now i want to jump off a cliff with the bridge of 'jealousy,jealously' blasting through headphones at three am in the rain." you say humerously, speaking your midnight thoughts as the other girls nod in agreement and a few laugh.

some of your words are slurred however, but you are mostly pulling through given the high levels of alcohol coursing through your veins and pulsing at your fingertips making them itch for the annoying yet belittlingly pleasing feeling of the shot glasses.

"that was a wirlwind of emotions and im not going to lie to you, i fancy her" one of your friends say. you smile at her and hold up an imaginary champagne glass as if commending her.

"same i would let her run me over will a bus and then write a song about it, best believe my ghost would be at her world tour and hovering over her while she sends my soul up. or down, im not fussy" another of your friends says as she drunkenly rambles on.

choruses of giggles and some snorts fill the room as your own eyes crinkle in delight at her.

"these songs would be great to prank an ex with" your bestfriend says. always being the one to put bad ideas in your head, you take her on as if its a challenge.

your ex boyfriend louis filling your mind immediatly, his birthday being recent it would be believable to have him on your mind.

"challenge accepted and im doing enough for you since it fits for us" you say while keeping your eyes closed and haphazardly reaching for your phone.

louis and you are on good terms as the relationship ended becayse of your insecurities. you found it best to take a break from each other and with his up and coming acting gigs, he agreed.

you: I wore makeup when we dated 'Cause I thought you'd like me more

you press send and suddenly your body is filled with nerves having said something similar in your relationship.

"come on, we have to go or we are going to be late" louis says from the corner of your bed, gently pushing your shoulder with a smile on his face as you meet his eyes from the mirror.

"give me a second lou, i need to finish my makeup" you say smiling as you pull your eyebrow back gently as you create fake hairs to fill them in with a small brow pencil.

"ive told you this before, you dont need makeup"

"look louis i just want to look good for you, all the fans see the photos that are taken when we are out togther and i dont want to make you look bad by me looking bad okay?" you say quietly.

"if anything, im making you look bad with my outfit" he says cheerfully as he gestures to his bright pink socks tucked over the top of his mud green joggers.

"a girl like you shouldnt be seen with me, im a mess baby a mess and you, my darling, look fresh off a runway" he says while wrapping his arms around your waist and dipping you back slowly as he towers over you and places a quick but soft and loving peck on your forehead.

you smile softly in content, knowing you can pull through and hide your underlying feelings for a bit longer.

your heart jumps to your throat as the three dots show up.

louis: are you okay love, you know i loved you without makeup?

the past tensed loved makes your heart practically break and your teeth to cling to your lip.

you: If I looked like the other prom queens I know that you loved before

louis: id have loved you a little bit less because that would be weird

you laugh through a small sob as your tears catch up to you and you shake your head at your ex.

you: Tried so hard to be everything that you liked Just for you to say you're not the compliment type

louis: huh? i promise i never said that. i would never, complimenting you was my favourite thing to do.

each one of these past tense verbs has the needle feelings crawling back to you and teaching you nothing bus karma and a harsh slap of reality.

you: And I knew how you took your coffee And your favorite songs by heart I read all of your self-help books So you'd think that I was smart Stupid, emotional, obsessive little me I knew from the start this is exactly how you'd leave

louis: what? y/n i never planned to leave i wanted to stay with you, whats going on?

louis: are you okay, do you need me to come over?

you:  You found someone more exciting The next second, you were gone

louis: i never found someone else, it was only you and it still is only you.

louis: where is this coming from?

your heart grows a size at his statement and you can feel the needle slowly retreating and whispering their appologies in our ear.

you:  And you left me there cryin', wonderin' what I did wrong And you always say I'm never satisfied But I don't think that's true

louis: okay whats happening for real now, this isnt funny i never said that and now im worried

you sigh with a smile forming on your face, your ex admitting to still care for you appearig to be very dangerous when all your bestfriends looking over your shoulder and you are very drubk.

so, you decide to put him out of his misery.

you: louis listen to olivia rodrigos song enough for you
