Y/N's POV


I keep fighting voices in my mind that say I'm not enough
Every single lie that tells me I will never measure up
Am I more than just the sum of every high and every low?
Remind me once again just who I am, because I need to know, ooh oh

I sit, head bowed and resting in my hands, on my bed in an empty cabin. The voices in my head screaming louder than they usually did. I collapse sideways on the bed, fingers digging into my scalp and tugging roughly at clumps of hair. The noise in my skull forcing tears from my eyes. The fear of him not loving me was beginning to be too much.
Gods I wished Leo was here.


You say I am loved when I can't feel a thing
You say I am strong when I think I am weak
And You say I am held when I am falling short
And when I don't belong, oh, You say I am Yours
And I believe (I), oh, I believe (I)
What You say of me (I)
I believe

'He doesn't love you. He doesn't love you. He doesn't love you.'
The voices whispered.

'He loves me. He loves me. He loves me.'
I rambled in my head in a sad attempt to convince myself.

'No he doesn't! No he doesn't! No he doesn't!'
The voices were louder.


The only thing that matters now is everything You think of me
In You I find my worth, in You I find my identity, ooh oh

Without Leo I had nothing. Family wasn't enough. The only friends I had were through Leo. He was all I had and I couldn't loose him.
Not like this.
Not the one good thing I had.
Not the very thing that defined me.


You say I am loved when I can't feel a thing
You say I am strong when I think I am weak
And You say I am held when I am falling short
When I don't belong, oh, You say I am Yours
And I believe (I), oh, I believe (I)
What You say of me (I)
Oh, I believe

"Y/N!" His voice cut through the voices like a knife through butter. Clearing my conscience of doubt. I start to feel fingers prying at the ones clinging hopelessly to my scalp.


Taking all I have and now I'm layin' it at Your feet
You'll have every failure God, You'll have every victory, ooh oh

I can feel a rubbing on my back and the sensation of someone wiping my tears off my cheeks. But all I can focus on is Leo.


You say I am loved when I can't fell a thing
You say I am strong when I think I am weak
You say I am held when I am falling short
When I don't belong, oh, You say I am Yours
And I believe (I), oh, I believe (I)
What You say of me (I)
I believe

My eyes began to droop and become heavy. The rhythmic feeling of Leo patting my back and wiping away my tears slowly lulling me into a peaceful, dreamless sleep.


Oh, I believe (I), yes, I believe (I)
What You say of me (I)
I believe (oh)

"I love you Y/N."

"I love you to."
