5SOS PREFERENCES ( DISCONTINUED )

#12: Stay - Rihanna

Ashton: "Something in the way you move, makes me feel like I can't live without you"

You ran your hands through your hair in frustration and knocked over the nearby vase with your hand. You couldn't believe him, you really couldn't believe him. Your boyfriend blew you off for his friends, and today was your anniversary. He didn't even greet you, he just told you that he can't come over tonight and all those lame excuses he keeps telling you these past few weeks. He keeps apologizing and says he'll make it up, but he never does. You start to think that maybe his love for you was starting to fade, and you didn't even know what to do anymore. To you, Ashton was the most important person in the world. He was everything you needed, and you began to wonder if you could ever live without him. And now, the answer is as clear as day - you couldn't, you just couldn't imagine a life without him. You immediately wipe away your tears with your hand and made your way to his house, to give him a piece of your mind. You weren't expecting to see him dressed in a tuxedo, holding a huge bouquet of pink roses. He saw you and his face drained color, and he looked at you as if you caught him red-handed. "Who's that bouquet for? Why are you dressed up? I thought you were gonna have a boys night out," you spat, making sure he knew how pissed you are. "I-I just-" "Just tell me if you don't love me anymore! It's better than you going behind my back to see someone else," you shouted at him, tears streaming down your cheeks. He looked down at you, pain visible in his eyes. "I'm-I'm not cheating on you," He says, taking one step closer, while you took one step back. "Please let me explain," he says, taking another step as you take another step away. "There's nothing to-" "Will you marry me, Y/N?" He yelled, and you immediately shut yourself up. You stared at him, bewildered, as he held out the bouquet, as if he was trying to give it to you. "I-I'm sorry I haven't been spending time with you these past few weeks. The boys were helping me plan everything out because I wanted this to be perfect." He looks up at you and pulls out a velvet box from his pocket, and opened it, to reveal a beautiful silver ring, with a tiny sapphire on it. You remembered telling him all about how you wanted a sapphire ring for your engagement ring, because diamond rings were just too mainstream. He began to kneel down and all the hatred for him was replaced with guilt and happiness. "I've wanted this to be perfect, but I guess this will do. Y/N, you are the most beautiful girl I've ever laid my eyes on. Ever since we met, you've been on my mind and you're the only girl I've ever looked at. I promise to love you until the day I die, I can't imagine my life without you. Will you please marry me?" He searched your eyes for an answer and tears continued to stream down your cheeks, "Yes, yes, I love you Ashton!" He grins and takes you in his arms, thanking you and whispering how much he loved you. You were sure of it - you wanted to be with this boy until you died too, because you were too madly in love with him. This is just the beginning of your beautiful future together.

Michael: "It takes me all the way, I want you to stay"

You couldn't decide how to feel, because you began to feel so numb inside. You looked up at his handwritten letter to you again and another tear falls onto it, soaking the paper. You wanted to rip it to pieces, and just throw it away, but you couldn't bring yourself to do it. It was because it was the only thing Michael left you with, before he left you. The letter contained an apology, and basically thanks for everything you two have been through for the past year. He also says that he thinks you two should go separate ways, because he doesn't feel anything for you anymore. But you couldn't just accept that, you were still very much in love with him and you just can't understand why he would just let go without any warning. He hasn't come home since he left this letter, and that was about three days ago. You came home from work one day, thinking that you can finally enjoy your boyfriend's company, but to your surprise, he wasn't there. Instead, a folded piece of paper was sitting in his usual place on the couch. You died little by little with every word you read, and you hurriedly ran up the stairs to check if he really left you. You wanted this to just be a nightmare - you didn't want to accept the fact that he's gone. And you found that all his clothes have disappeared, everything he owned was no longer where he left it. Empty. Just like how you felt inside - empty, because he was gone without an explanation. Ever since then, you've tried to do everything to forget him, but you found yourself staring at the front door, wishing he would come back and hold you in his arms, saying it was all just a mistake and that he didn't mean to leave and that he still loved you. But he didn't. A few more days pass, and you still felt the same emptiness inside. You trudged down the stairs and entered the kitchen, only to be greeted by a familiar face. "Hi," he squeaked, looking at you with a small smile. You could feel all the emotions rush through you, and everything started to come back to you. You didn't feel as lifeless anymore, and it was all because of him. "I'm sorry, I tried to forget you, but I just couldn't take it anymore. I need you back, I'm so sorry for being a dick. I know I don't deserve another chance but let me love you again, I'll treat you better. I-" You silenced him with your lips and you quickly pulled away, wrapping your arms around him, feeling in the warmth you longed for, for days. "Shut up Michael, I love you. I'm so glad you came back, don't ever leave me alone again, you hear?" He kisses the top of your head and rubbed his hands up and down your back, "I'm sorry I left, I won't ever do that again. I'll stay this time."
