Saw you at the party, but you wouldn't say a single thing
You smiled for a moment, then she kissed your cheek, that's such a shame
'Cause I know that she can't love you quite like I could
So I'll leave your text on read, and hope you're overthinkin' everything
Saw me by myself, you said hello, and asked if I was good
She walked up out of nowhere, damn, I almost said that I love you
Now you're headed to her house to watch that movie you both like
While I'm up and losin' sleep, what do I do if it's not me you choose?
But God, she's so pretty, and funny, and witty
I don't think that I stand a chance
And she's so fuckin' lucky 'cause all I've been wanting
Is you to be holding my hand
But it feels like forever, from minutes to seconds
To hours, been waiting for you
But she loves you too, I guess it's too soon
But I'd come running if you asked me to
Ah
(But I'd come running if you asked me to)
Had you to myself, but then you left and didn't even care
Didn't give a second thought 'cause you know that I'd still be here
If you always thought about her, did you have to waste my time?
So if blue was never love then all this time, have I been color-blind?
But God, she's so perfect, no flaws on the surface
I don't think that I stand a chance
And she's so fuckin' lucky 'cause all I've been wanting
Is you to be holding my hand
It feels like forever, from minutes to seconds
To hours, been waiting for you
But she loves you too, I guess it's too soon
But I'd come running if you asked me to
Ah
But I'd come running if you asked me to
Ah
But I'd come running if you asked me to
Ah-ah-ah
I'd come running if you asked me to
Ah-ah-ah
I'd come running if you asked me to

eleven months after
third person

when chris had messaged brooke practically begging her to go to nate's party, she couldn't say no. he found out she was back in boston, and wanted nothing more than to see his best friend. she wanted to see him just as badly, and she wanted to see nick. deep down, the girl really wanted to see matt. but she didn't know how to face him, and the idea of seeing him again terrified her, because the girl knew it would send her backwards.

as soon as her white converse stepped inside, two familiar figures came running over to her. she hugged them both, feeling a sense of relief.

"brooke! fuck you for leaving without saying bye!" chris complained, making brooke roll her eyes. "i missed you too!"

"i'm so glad you're here!" nick said excitedly, hugging her once again. chris smiled, "you're not too famous for us now, are you?"

"i could never be too famous for my favorite people in the whole world." brooke answered, as chris messed up her hair. "christopher!"

"that's what you get for leaving us for eleven months, taylor."

brooke shook her head, smiling. chris knew exactly how to annoy her, but she wouldn't have it any other way. he was the brother she never had.
