My phone lights your name, another call from you
It's always the same.
Nothing new as I pick up and say
"Hey, how you've been today?"
Although I'm wondering if you're really okay
with the same old words from yesterday?

"(Y/N)?" I said, pressing 'answer' to the incoming phone call.

"Hey... Could I come over?" The reply that came was soft, almost as if it was whispered. The tone of your voice tugged at my heartstrings.

I nodded, realising that the person I was talking to could not see my action.

"Of course! When?" I replied quickly, not wanting to keep my best friend hanging.

"I'm outside..." I could hear a sniffle, as I rushed to open the front door.

You're quiet as you're gazing down at your feet, and so I
Put on the biggest smile when we meet, despite what I'm feeling
I notice at the time, the sadness shining in your pretty eyes
And raise a hand to wipe away the tears you're crying 

You looked up at me. Your face was stained with dried-up tear marks.

"Ron.." You mumbled, and I knew you were feeling worse by the second.

I grinned, holding your face gently as I used my other hand to wipe away a tear that flowed freely from your cheek.

"Don't cry, please. I'm here." I said, holding your hand gingerly as I led you into my living room.

Taking a seat on the couch, you were still visibly shaking.

Wrapping an arm around your shoulders, I pulled you in gently, allowing you to rest onto my side.

Tears welled up in your eyes again.

I understand that,
I understand that
There isn't a single thing I can do
to stop your tears,
but I am here to comfort you through them silently...
So won't you let it all out?
Please don't hold back now
I promise that you're safe within my arms...

"I asked him if his paperwork was more important than me! And he told me that he was busy.." You were sobbing, your cries causing my heart to clench in pain.

If only you could see that I could treat you better...

Much, much better than that douche you call your boyfriend.

But you only see me as a best friend, nothing more.

I hummed, rubbing your back in a comforting manner as you continued to bawl and rant to me.
