Oh everyday

You feel a little bit further away

And I don't know what to say

Are we wasting time

talking on a broken line

Telling you I haven't seen your face in ages

I feel like we're as close as strangers

I won't give up

even though it hurts so much

Every night I'm losing you in a thousand faces

Now it feels we're as close as strangers

"Six weeks are you sure it hasn't been six months?" Y/N sighed through the phone. She wanted Hiro to come back home, he's been on bussiness in several countries. 

"Yeah," Hiro replied back just as upset. 

"It's hard,"Y/N choked. Her voice broke and the tears began to stream down her face. "I feel like we're as close as strangers," she sobbed into the phone. 

"No, No, I'm not giving up on us, it's just work, and I promise the moment I get home I will be with you," Hiro spoke gently, he too was crying. 

"But it hurts Hiro, I keep seeing you in the crowd, but it's not really you, and then I just give up hope of ever seeing you again," 

"We will be together again, you know that, it'll just be awhile," 

"Awhile Hiro? Six months is more than awhile, awhile is a few hours, a few days, not six months," Y/N gave up and breathed in. 

"But think when we see eachother again it will be worth the wait," Hiro tries to make the best out of the situation but he feels himself failing. 

"I don't know anymore, all my friends have their boyfriends when we go out, I'm like the lost egg Hiro, I watch them embrace and kiss eachother and I feel so jealous," 

"When I get home it'll be different," 

"When you get home? Hiro who knows by then you might be in love with some european model, I think we should just-" 

"No," Hiro stopped her from saying what he feared. "I'm in love with you, and you only, that's the only way it will ever be," Hiro statted matter-of-factly. 

"What if I fall in love with someone else?" Y/N asked almost as if she already did. 

"But our realtionship- are you trying to tell me something?" 

"I don't know Hiro am I? You're gone all the time and now it's a six month period, would you blame me for searching, searching for someone who will actually stay," 

"Y/N I thought you loved me?" Hiro felt like he was going to be sick. His head began to spin. 

"I do Hiro, I do, so much, too much, that it's keeping me from being happy while you're away. Maybe I should move on, maybe we should break up," 

"Y/N no, please?" Hiro's tone changed. He was pleading with every centimeter of his being. "Don't let us go," he whispered the last few words. 

"How about my happiness, you want me to live in hell for the next few months?" 

"No, I want you to be happy, but I also want you to be mine," 

"Well Hiro, you choose, my happiness or us ?" Y/N waited for an answer. Hiro's heart sunk. He needed to do what was right. Y/N was right, Hiro's away and she's straying from him. He has to let her go her own way. 

"Your happiness is more important, goodbye, I love you," he hung up the phone simply. Y/N did as well. She felt lighter inside. She could finally let go. As for Hiro he slammed his fists against the wall. "Why can't things be different?" he murmured to himself as he slid down the wall in sobs. He was numb and broken. He wants the best for her, he loves her too much to let her suffer for over four more months. Her happiness meant more than anything. And when we would get back home, they would be as close as strangers.
