Superheroes Don't Cry

Track 6

✒︎Haunted✒︎

As Bryce walked home from the picnic, he spotted Ohm with a man at the diner. Just as he was going to wave through the window, the man with Ohm grabbed Ohm's hand which was on the table and leaned closer with a seductive smirk before glancing at Bryce through the window. Ohm turned, noticing that the brown-haired man was looking at something. The man in the grey omega shirt stood quickly but it was too late: Bryce had already raced down the street.

Bryce was fuming when Ohm arrived home to their shared apartment. "Bryce," Ohm tried, but Bryce wanted none of it.

"I was mad that you lied," Bryce growled, "But you've been lying to me since day one! I know nothing about you, Ohm."

"That's not true!" Ohm defended, stepping towards Bryce.

"Ohm," Bryce frowned, crossing his arms, "What's your real name? Or your actual job?" The blonde waited for an answer.

Ohm could only say, "I'm sorry."

"Or we can discuss how you said you couldn't come to the picnic nor pick me up because you worked all day and wouldn't be home until late!" Bryce yelled.

"I'm sorry!" Ohm said again.

Bryce grasped at his own hair in frustration. "Is that all you can say?"

Ohm through his hands up in defeat. "What do you want me to say? It wasn't me? Sure, I'll tell you all of my little secrets? How about yours?" He yelled back.

"What are you talking about?"

"You disappearing lately! Where have you been the last few months?"

"Like you don't!"

"I tell you where I am!"

"Like today?"

"Dammit Bryce! Answer my question!"

"I-I can't tell you..."

"Wow funny, but you want to know everything about me!"

"That's unfair!"

"Really?"

"Fine, who the fuck were you with?"

"Oh my God! I can't believe you! This whole fight because you're jealous."

"Answer the question, Ohm."

"I don't have to tell you shit."

"Go to Hell, you prick," Bryce turned to walk away when Ohm grabbed his arm roughly. "Let go of me," Bryce growled.

*Start song*

Ohm let go, shoving Bryce. "You know what?" Ohm started, "Maybe we shouldn't be together! We obviously can't trust each other."

Bryce's heart broke. "Yeah?" Bryce answered as a tear rolled down his cheek, "Get the fuck out!" Bryce then turned walking into bedroom.

Ohm slammed the door as he left. He made it to the stop sign at the end of the street before he broke down. How could he have said something like that?

Bryce: You and I walk a fragile line

I have known it all this time

But I never thought I'd live to see it break

It's getting dark and it's all too quiet

And I can't trust anything now

And it's coming over you like it's all a big mistake

Whoa, holding my breath

Won't lose you again

Something's made your eyes go cold

Come on, come on, don't leave me like this

I thought I had you figured out

Something's gone terribly wrong

You're all I wanted

Come on, come on, don't leave me like this

I thought I had you figured out

Can't breathe whenever you're gone

Can't turn back now, I'm haunted

~~~~~~~~~~~~

Ohm: Stood there and watched you walk away

From everything we had

But I still mean every word I said to you

He will try to take away my pain

And he just might make me smile

But the whole time, I'm wishing it was you instead

Oh, holding my breath

Won't see you again

Something keeps me holding onto nothing

Come on, come on, don't leave me like this

I thought I had you figured out

Something's gone terribly wrong

You're all I wanted

Come on, come on, don't leave me like this

I thought I had you figured out

Can't breathe whenever you're gone

Can't turn back now, I'm haunted

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Bryce: I know

I know

Ohm: I just know

You're not gone, you can't be gone, no

Bryce: Come on, come on, don't leave me like this

I thought I had you figured out

Something's gone terribly wrong

Won't finish what you started

Ohm: Come on, come on, don't leave me like this

I thought I had you figured out

Can't breathe whenever you're gone

Can't turn back now, I'm haunted

(Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh)

Bryce: You and I walk a fragile line

I have known it all this time

Never ever thought I'd see it break

Never thought I'd see it

Bryce curled into a small ball on the floor of the bedroom, wishing for sleep. He wished for the numbness to stop. He wished for it to be a horrible nightmare, but it was real and it was over.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Ohm made it to a small apartment on the other side of the city. The brown-haired man from earlier answered the door, wearing only glasses and pj bottoms. "Ohm?" he asked, "Is your boyfriend okay? He seemed a bit up-" Ohm swung his fist barely missing the man in front of him.

"Fuck you, Chilled. You fucked everything up!" Ohm growled, ready to take another swing.

"Before you hit me, think if this is something you want Nanners or Smi77y to find out about," Chilled smirked, "Plus I was helping you fulfill Nanners and Smi77y's request to cut all ties with citizens and report to the living quarters."
