Fine line- Harry styles
————————————————————
The days had gone by in a confused messy fucked up blur. Lilith hadn't eaten much, barely slept, she hadn't spoken to Maddy once, and most of all she couldn't function properly without ash. Part of her still didn't understand why they suddenly weren't talking anymore. She didn't understand why she was forcing herself away from him when he was trying so hard to keep her around.Her head was rested on her desk as she waited impatiently for the last bell of the day to go. She'd done her usual makeup and straightened her hair and was wearing one of ash's shirts over a black top of hers but she just looked different. She looked so uncomfortable, so unhappy.
She felt her phone buzz in her pocket, pulling it out her eyes welled with tears at the message.
The final school bell of the day rang as she read the text over and over again.
Ash❤️:
I'm outside the school
rn beautiful. Please just
come outside and talk to
me. I love you <3Lilith stood up abruptly and walked to her locker, grabbing her bag out of it and walking out of the school to see ash leaning against his car, looking down at his phone absentmindedly. A sight she didn't even realise she missed so much until now.
She took a few unsure steps towards him, before stopping, eyebrows knitting together in concentration. She was in the middle of a severe depressive episode, and maybe sorting things out with ash RIGHT NOW wasn't exactly what she needed. She could barely get herself together, let alone think about her relationship that was teetering over the edge.
Ash looked up from his phone, his eyes meeting hers. She stood for another 20 seconds before she cleared her throat slightly, a small anxious smile working its way onto her face as she slowly closed the gap between them.
Neither of them said anything as ash reached forwards and grabbed her hand, pulling her into him and hugging her tight.
Lilith instinctively wrapped her arms tightly around his torso, burying her face into his neck and taking a deep breath. The familiar smell of his cologne mixed with his body wash calmed her greatly, and she felt safe. She felt shielded and restricted in the best way possible.
She looked up at him with tears in her eyes, as she bit back a sad giggle.
"I fuckin missed you so much beautiful." Ash whispered, eyes scanning his girlfriends face with a hint of concern before he pulled her fully back into him again.
A small whimper left her lips, before a string of sobs followed, Lilith now completely unraveling in her boyfriends arms.
"It's okay baby, I gotchu. You know I gotchu, always." Ash said quietly, pressing multiple kisses to the top of Lilith's head as his eyes welled up with tears.
