You're on the phone with your girlfriend, she's upset

Looking across the window, I see (y/n) sit on the TV, trying his best to focus on his video game. And yet his phone keeps ringing, and I see him get more and more irritated as it does, before eventually sighing and picking up the phone. I do my best to listen to what he says, and then I see him roll his eyes when he realizes who it is, and why the call is even taking place.

She's going off about something that you said, cause she doesn't get your humor like I do.

(y/n) begins to yell, which makes it easier for me to tell why he's angry, and listen into the conversation. His girlfriend of the past couple months, Cinder Fall is angry at him again, and I have to wonder what the fight is for this time. My guess is that it has to be Cinder's fault, considering her legendary temper, and the fact (y/n) has such a big heart. As they continue to argue, I roll my eyes when I hear (y/n) try to explain some joke or comment he made, which Cinder had taken offense to.

I'm in my room, it's a typical Tuesday Night, I'm listening to the kind of music she doesn't like, and she'll never know your story like I do

As the two of them continue to argue, I decide I don't want to eavesdrop, and so I put in my headphones, and listen to an old alt-rock band (y/n) and I like, the kind of music that Cinder constantly insults. As I try to focus on the assigned reading, I can't help but think of how little Cinder truly knows about (y/n). She only transferred academies from Haven to Beacon recently, while I had been friends with (y/n) the both of our entire lives. I knew him like the back of my hand, details Cinder would never notice.

But she wears short skirts, I wear t shirts, she's cheer captain and I'm on the bleachers

There are times when I honestly wonder what (y/n) sees in Cinder. But, then I also have flashes where I realize exactly why he, and so many other boys fell for Cinder Fall. Part of it had been that most of everyone at Beacon had been in a relationship, so when the transfer students had come in, of course the new girls were going to get a lot of attention. Emerald also had a lot of boys flocking to her, but the Mercury chased them all away, which we all found funny. However, pretty much everyone at school found Cinder attractive, and it was easy to see why. She was gorgeous, and she knew it too. Cinder purposely dressed to accentuate that, and her walk was as sensual as she could possibly make it, and she somehow managed to avoid dress code violations each time. Whenever she talked to someone, it used sexuality and seduction. There's no shortage of boys who would date her, especially because of that. I wondered often what (y/n)'s reasons for dating her were, not wanting to believe he was the type of guy who would date for looks alone. However, I knew that would be a reason he dated Cinder, especially considering how a lot of the girls at school dress so plainly. Whenever I see Cinder, I find myself embarrassed by the physical gap between our development, and know I can't compete with that.

Dreaming bout the day when you wake up and find that what your looking for has been here the whole time

As I lose focus on the notes I try to take, I find myself drifting off, and then imagining (y/n) breaking up with Cinder. I picture (y/n) being broken up by it at first, coming me to me for emotional support as he always has, and him resting his head on my shoulder as I cradle him, and then he tells me everything about the breakup. I imagine him getting over Cinder more and more, starting to get happier and happier. I imagine him having a long reflection to himself one night, before he comes to a realization. I imagine him realizing how I've always been in his corner, supporting him, and realizing that he's had the same buried feelings for me that I have for him.

If you can see that I'm the one who understands you, been here all along, so why can't you see

I wonder to myself if it's ever going to happen. (y/n) and I have known each other forever, and I've had a crush on him pretty much since the moment we met, and those feelings for him have continued to grow and they became something like I would call love. However, he's only looked at me like one looks at a little sister, or a close friend. In the times I've tried to get over him, I told myself that if something were going to have happened between the two of us, then it was going to have happened ages ago. If something were going to happen between us, he never would have been with Cinder. And yet, I find myself falling for him over and over, and the childish part of me wants to know why it is that he's even with Cinder. I'm the one who knows him, things about him Cinder would never even bother to ask. He gave me a part of his life, that I know Cinder would never want or appreciate.
