Description: Finn is trying to do what's best for both of you, but old habits die hard.

Tomorrow, I'm gonna leave here
I'm gonna let you go and walk away
Like every day I said I would
And tomorrow, I'm gonna listen
To that voice of reason inside my head
Telling me that we're no good

"I thought we agreed that last time was the last time."

"We did but I really could use your company tonight
Finn, please. Before we were anything else we were friends. I know it won't work as friends right now but tonight that's all I'm asking for."

Sighing he closed the door resting his head against the cold metal for a moment. He was weighing his options, leaving and drowning himself in his own sorrows with the bottle. Or staying and risking his heart being torn apart again by the fact that this wasn't good for either of them. He wasn't a weak willed person by any means, but when her hand rested softly on his arm he knew there was no turning away.

"This has to be the last time, tomorrow I'm going to leave. I'm going to listen to my inner voice and do what's best for the both of us. I don't want to keep hurting and I don't want to keep hurting you. This relationship isn't good for us anymore. We're not good for each other."

But tonight I'm gonna give in one last time
Rock you strong in these arms of mine
Forget all the regrets that are bound to follow
We're like fire and gasoline
I'm no good for you you're no good for me
We only bring each other tears and sorrow
But tonight, I'm gonna love you like there's no

"I know we aren't."

She softly sighed as she took his hand leading him upstairs to the bedroom where they had spent so many nights together. It was the scene for endless nights of loving and passion. But also countless disagreements and arguments. Tears of hurt and anger that seemed like an endless cycle. They weren't good for each other and they both knew it.

Finn couldn't help the shudder that went through him as he stepped inside, it had been two months since he'd been in here last. Two months of trying to forget the hold she held on him.

"I just need you to hold me tonight, it doesn't have to be anything else."

"Now we both know it's going to end up being more, it always does."

Climbing into bed Finn pulled her close to his chest; she still fit like a missing puzzle piece. Her head resting over his heart he knew this was a mistake. They weren't good for each other, it was like a mix of fire and gas. The explosion that occurred after usually left a lot of damage.

Tomorrow, I'll be stronger
I'm not gonna break down and call you up
When my heart cries out for you
And tomorrow, you won't believe it
But when I pass your house I won't stop
No matter how bad I want to


She knew it wasn't fair asking him to come here; they were both trying to heal but she couldn't help herself. Finn was the one person in this world who knew everything about her and still loved her, well she wasn't even sure of that anymore. It wasn't just on her tho there had been countless times Finn would drive past her house in the past and no matter how many times he told himself not to stop he would.

She couldn't help the tears welling up as Finn pressed a kiss to the top of her hair. This felt good, it felt familiar and right now she wouldn't care if tomorrow never happened.

Baby, when we're good, you know we're great
But there's too much bad for us to think
That there's anything worth trying to save

Finn laid there listening to her steady breathing as he held her close, it would be so easy to just fall back into the same pattern. It wasn't always bad there were periods of time where things would be going perfectly for them and he really thought they had a chance at happiness. But something always came along and there was just too much bad for them to try again.

He loved her more than he had ever loved someone before. But this needed to be the last time they both deserved better, a heart could only handle so much heartbreak before it stopped working.

Tomorrow, I'm gonna leave here
I'm gonna let you go and walk away
Like every day I said I would

When tomorrow finally arrived Finn pressed a kiss to her forehead, slipped from the bed and quietly went downstairs. Leaving her a small note he made his way out to his car, staring out the window at the house that held so many memories for him.

Pulling out of the driveway he gave one last glance, and then drove away without looking back. It may hurt terribly now, he may have regrets but tomorrow was a new day. A fresh start to the rest of his life.
