I don't own the video or the song.
Carrie is the one singing the song,
Alright on with the story, hope you enjoy

~Carrie's POV

"Of course I'll be there." Flynn said, referring to the performance Dirty Candy was showing tonight at a café. "It's important to you so it's important too."

"Thanks." I said. "It really means a lot that you'll be there, cause we both know my dad won't be showing up."

"I'm really sorry he's never around." Flynn said. "It's not fair to you."

"It's fine." I said. "As long as I still have you."

"Hey Flynn." Julie said, coming up to us. "Carrie." She glared at me. She hated the fact that we were dating. I get it. Her ex best friend now nemesis dating her current best friend; there's bound to be problems. "I have a best friend emergency."

"What's wrong?" Flynn asked.

"I'll tell you about it on the way." Julie said.

"Sorry Care, I have to go."

"No, no it's fine." I said. "Go."

So Julie and Flynn went off together, leaving me behind. I knew she had to go, and it's fine, it always is. She has an emergency with her best friend, I get it. But part of me was left wondering if I should follow.

I just couldn't help but feel like we were growing apart. I felt I was the one chasing her heart. I was the one trying to keep this relationship together.

I know Flynn cares about me, I really do, but lately she seems preoccupied with Julie. I'm trying hard not to be jelous, but part of me feels like Julie is purposely pulling Flynn away from me.

I couldn't lose Flynn. She was basically my compass. I was lost before without her, and now when she's gone, I feel like I'm in a foreign land. Right feels wrong and wrong feels right.

Flynn always says I'm good with directions. I help her find her way all the time, but when it comes to metaphorical paths I'm the one who's lost. What made it worse was I didn't know path Flynn was on, I just knew it wasn't mine.

Up to this point, our relationship was a question of how. How are we gonna date and have me and Julie hate each other at the same time. I would never have thought it would turn into a question of whether or not we were together. The more time she spent with Julie, the more I doubted our relationship.

If I wasn't with Flynn, how am I to know who I am? Where am I if I'm not with her? I'm lost without her, she's my true north. My moral compass.

I have no one else, she is all I have. She's my only landmark, and without her I'm lost in myself and a sea of drama, wondering if she even still cares.

But I'm also willing to wait for a sign that we belong together. I knew she was my path, but what if I wasn't her's?  Until that sign comes, I will remain lost without her.
