I go from okay, I'm okay to I'm not okay in point two
I go from cool in my new place to packing my suitcase like you
I said it over and over that I wouldn't do this
Go find someone new and just fuck my way through this
But no way or no way I'm okay when thinkin' 'bout you

"You truly are worthless, Tony!"

"No one loves you because of your selfish attitude!"

"Sheesh.. you never changed. Hope you die someday."

"A crybaby! God, you're a man, not a little girl."

Tony was tired of hearing these thoughts from his negativity, as he kept drinking his scotch in his self bar. They never understood his pain, and never will. He felt totally alone, like no one by his side. He did feel himself selfish, even after doing every single effort for them, they just gave him pain and tears.

They broke his heart.
They made him feel worthless.
They made him cry.
They deserve to suffer, not you, Tony.

Wish he could talk about it.
But who was there for him?

He wept silently as the heavy tears stream down his salty cheeks, as he tries to wash away his pain but it seemed to become a permanent mark in his heart a long back when he lost his parents.

Then being betrayed by his own friends.

Even he was cheated by his own girlfriend.

How much you'll take away from him? He's a man, but a human like us, isn't it?

He really needed to take it out of chest. He wanted someone's presence. But he just can't feel it. He felt worthless slowly as a second passed. He then thought to end his misery by one option — suicide.

He gripped his glass of scotch tighter and wiped his tears, but the pain was inevitable. Poor had suffered a lot, and cannot take it anymore. Either he could talk about it, or just..

..

Suddenly. He felt a soft hand on his shoulder.

You were right when you said it
Keep my cards to my chest and I never let no one know me
I pushed you out
Now, I get that you needed
Just a little more love and to just see me wide open
And breaking down

He turned back, to see his girlfriend, Y/N by his side. She saw his puffy eyes, and teary cheeks. It just broke her heart a lot. She also felt like to cry.

They both were attached to each other. If he cried, she cried.

His heart broke, her broke too.

If he laughed, then she laughed.

Y/N was a different woman Tony ever met. From a meeting in a bar, to being a love interest, Y/N never felt unhappy anymore because she knew Tony was by her side.

"Y/N.." Tony stuttered. "W-what happened?"

You saw his voice crack in pain, it hurt you even more.

It felt like he really gave up on life, and wanted to end himself in no time. It was like, easy for anyone who was depressed. Thinking it will wash away their all sorrows, but.. does it really help? Knowing you might have someone by your side, who is rooting for you?

Y/N believes in this.

And if he died, how would she live too?

"If you think you'll kill yourself, take yourself with me. I'll stay with you in Heaven, and make you feel happy." You said with now your eyes blurring out because of the forming tears in your eyes.

"Just talk about it, Tony. You know.. I-I can't think about a moment without you. W-will you kill yourself because of your problems, not knowing.. y-you have me?" You turn his chair towards your direction, looking at his eyes.

"Babe, but.. I just.. can't live like this. People hate me, and they've put me in lot of pressure and critisism."

"If they hate you, then let them hate. They're one heartless creatures, who never care about anyone, even to their loved ones. They know your name, but not your story. But, I know it. And you should be happy about it. Be glad you have me, who loves you unconditionally and will never stop, till our last breath." You cup his cheeks, which were still wet by his tears.

"I love you, Tony. But please.." You too broke in tears, as you wailed and hugged him tightly, rubbing his head with one hand and the back with the other. "Don't leave me.. please. I am incomplete without you! Just please!"

Tony suddenly felt so bad for thinking like that, that hurt his Y/N's feelings. He knew that she can't live without him. She wants to start a new life with him, with pure happiness.

With no sadness.

No depression.

No negative thoughts.

When no one's there to listen I will heal your pain
I know that I was less then but you know people change
So, tell me what's the difference if we still feel the same?
It takes a little distance to make you see the way

Tony hugged her in return, comforting back. He gently kissed her neck, and then pushed her back to kiss her lips. It was with pure love and compassion, no hunger and lust. He kissed her longer as she calms down, wiping off the tears off his girlfriend's cheeks. Which were supposed to be showing a grin and not a frown. He smiled, as she lay her head on his chest. He rubbed her hair, as she look back at him.

"I promise, Y/N. I won't leave, when I have you?"

Finally, Tony was not depressed anymore. It felt like a goal of your life was complete. You laughed as happy tears flow down to your face. Tony chuckles back, having your boyfriend free from all those negative thoughts, that pushed him down.

But you were always there for him.

Lending a hand in his darkness, pulling him up to the light.

It all requires to show someone the right way.
