Haley's PoV

I open my eyes and I'm in a bed that's slightly familiar. I don't even remember coming home to Patrick's place from the water park. Memories of yesterday flooded into my thoughts and I remember Patrick asking me to move in, Brendon trying to make a move, the night before with Patrick. I blush. I honestly can't believe that finally happened between Patrick and I.

I smile thinking about it and look around to find out that Patrick was missing from the bed. I get up and see I'm in a pair of Patrick's boxers and one of his shirts. That means that whenever we got home last night he dressed me which is super sweet of him. I really respect the fact that I know I don't have to worry about Patrick doing anything to me while I'm unaware unlike how it was with Ryan. Thinking back to Ryan made me shiver in fear of that low point in my life. Thinking of Ryan made me think of Brendon. Specifically what happened yesterday. I can't believe he tried to make a move on me. Especially after Patrick and I just got back together. I swear people suck at controlling themselves and being respectful. I understand that he was in an abusive relationship with Sarah but damn. I just got my Trickster back and I really didn't want to deal with anything right now.

I sigh and decide to go search for Patrick and thank him for last night. I make my way downstairs and find him asleep on the couch with a notepad on the coffee table. I pick up the notepad and find some lyrics on the front sheet.

Don't panic
No, not yet
I know I'm the one you want to forget
Cue all the love to leave my heart
Its time for me to fall apart

Now you re gone
But Ill be okay
Your hot whisky eyes
Have fanned the flames
Maybe Ill burn a little brighter tonight
Let the fire breathe me back to life

Baby, you were my picket fence
I miss missing you now and then
Chlorine kissed summer skin
I miss missing you now and then
Sometimes before it gets better
The darkness gets bigger
The person that you'd take a bullet for is behind the trigger
Oh, were fading fast
I miss missing you now and then

Making eyes at this husk around my heart
I see through you when were sitting in the dark
So give me your filth
Make it rough
Let me, let me trash your love

I will sing to you every day
If it will take away the pain
Oh and I've heard you got it, got it so bad
'Cause I am the best you'll never have

Baby, you were my picket fence
I miss missing you now and then
Chlorine kissed summer skin
I miss missing you now and then
Sometimes before it gets better
The darkness gets bigger
The person that you'd take a bullet for is behind the trigger
Oh, were fading fast
I miss missing you now and then

Now and then
Now and then
Now and then

Baby, you were my picket fence
I miss missing you now and then

I cannot believe he wrote this last night. A tear rolled down my face as I finished reading the song. I have a feeling a certain event that happened yesterday motivated him to write this song. I caused this sweet yet bitter song because of the kiss with Brendon yesterday.
