based on homicide love by james arthur
———-

One beat, one life
One me, let the other side go

7 months. it had been seven months since you last saw Ted. It all happened so quickly, the fall of your relationship, but at the same time, you saw it coming. you two had been perfect for each other, soulmates. you were supposed to spend the rest of your lives together. but he left.

I live and die by your knife
This is homicide love

it still hurt. truthfully. you wished you could say you were over ted. he hurt you, but you still loved him

Tell me, could you make me, oh
All that you want?
Would you fly home?
Or could it ever be just alright?

you had thought about making amends with him. maybe you could change yourself, be the girl he needed. if you dyed your hair, moved closer, dropped out of school? would it make him come back? was it possible?

Tell me what you're waiting for
Hold me like you did before

his side of the bed was still cold, but there was nothing you could do about that. you often worried if he felt the same, or if he had found someone else. someone to take your side of the bed

Or just run away, run away, run away
'Cause I don't think I can take much more

maybe ted leaving abruptly was for the best. the way your relationship was going, it was torture. but you knew you were just lying to yourself, you wished he had stayed.

Why you always waging war?
Tell me why I'm keeping score.

you kept in touch with cooper and carson. lunch club was doing really well. they were happy. Ted was happy. he had to know you werent. he had won.

Oh, would you give me one, give me one, give me one more lie,

carson invited you over, the misfits were visiting and were throwing a huge party. you said no. carson assured you Ted wasnt going to be there, he was busy that night. carson berated you until you agreed to visit.

that friday night, cooper and carson picked you up at 9. it was a misfits party, so you made sure you looked good.

"wow, you're hot y/n" said cooper, his jaw slightly dropped. this earned him a slap on the head from carson.

"you horny bitch, get in the car"

——
the party was fun. you actually enjoyed yourself, dancing, singing, drinking a little, smoking a little, you were living.

you were in the kitchen with a mixture of some unknown alcohol in your cup, talking to mason, when you felt a tap on your shoulder.

"y/n?"

you didn't recognize the man at first. his hair was a mess, he looking thin, and the dark circles under his eyes showed how he was holding up.

"Ted?"

"um, c-could we maybe talk? in private? theres some things i need to say", he said while struggling to maintain eye contact, long enough for you to see his teary bloodshot eyes, though

"yeah, i think that would be nice"

he grasped your hand, as he cut his way through the crowd. he led you to a room that was a stark contrast from the loud party, secluded and quiet. he sat on the bed, beckoning you to sit next to him

"i fucked up, y/n", he said, with his voice shaking, "i miss you, no, i need you. I know i don't deserve you. but im a mess without you."

you couldn't muster up any courage to speak, but you took his hand.

"please, y/n. ill do anything.", he spoke, the desperation in his plea obvious

"i still love you, y/n"

"and i never stopped, ted"

if this was truly love?
Truly love?
