Summary: Inspired by the song Betty by Taylor Swift. 

Warnings: Angst, language, pining I guess. 

Author's Note: This is one I've been planning for a while and I hope you all like it. Slightly different than what I usually write. This will be from Billy's point of view.

Betty, I won't make assumptions about why you switched your homeroom but I think it's 'cause of me. 

I walk into homeroom and my eyes automatically search for my girlfriend Y/N and I feel my heart drop. She had switched homerooms and I knew it was because of me and what happened this summer. 

Betty, one time I was riding on my skateboard when I passed your house it's like I couldn't breathe. 

I'm driving through Hawkins in my Camaro when I see Y/N's house approaching. I slow the car and my chest feels tight as I get closer. I look at the front of the familiar house as I slowly drive by. 

You heard the rumors from Inez. You can't believe a word she says but this time it was true. The worst thing that I ever did was what I did. 

As I pass by Y/N's locker I see her looking at me with a look of absolute disgust and when we make eye contact she looks away and I knew she heard about what happened this summer. Damn, Carol for not being able to keep her mouth shut. 

But if I just showed up at your party Would you have me? Would you want me? Would you tell me to go fuck myself or lead me to the garden? In the garden would you trust me if I told you it was just a summer thing? I'm only seventeen and I don't know anything but I know I miss you.  

I hear the music blasting and I see all the people walking around. I knew Y/N would be at this party but I didn't know if I would be able to talk to her about what had happened. She wouldn't want to hear me out. Even if she did want to talk to me, would she believe anything I said? I knew I messed up and I knew I missed her. 

Betty, I know where it all went wrong your favorite song was playing on the far side of the gym. I was nowhere to be found I hate the crowds you know that, plus I saw you dance with him. 

It was another party and Y/N's favorite song, I was looking through the crowd for her and I felt my heart stop when I saw her dancing with Steve. I feel anger rising in my chest as I walk away to grab another beer. 

You heard the rumors from Inez you can't believe a word she says but this time it was true. The worst thing that I ever did was what I did to you. 

I lay in my bed staring up at the ceiling. I hear footsteps and I see Max standing in my doorway. I snap out, "Go away you little shit." 

Much to my dismay she doesn't instead she says, "You need to stop moping over Y/N and just talk to her." I get up from my bed and slam the door in her face before flopping back down on my bed still regretting what I did to Y/N. 

But if I just showed up at your party Would you have me? Would you want me? Would you tell me to go fuck myself or would you lead me to the garden? In the garden would you trust me if I told you it was just a summer thing? I'm only seventeen I don't know anything but I know I miss you. 

I take a deep breath as I see her standing off to the side of the dancefloor. I steel myself to talk to her but she leaves before I have the chance to. I bang my hand against the wall next to me cursing myself. I wanted nothing more than to talk to her and be with her but I couldn't bring myself to do so. 

I was walking home on broken cobblestones just thinking of you when she pulled up like a figment of my worst intentions. She said James get in let's drive those days turned into nights slept next to her but I dreamt of you all summer long. 

I feel a hand run over my back and I see a girl drunkenly slurring her words as she says, "Why don't we go somewhere more private?" 

I think back to Y/N dancing with Steve and I follow her to the back of the house. I feel her lips on mine and I distractedly kiss her back if only halfheartedly while my mind thinks of Y/N. 

Betty, I'm here on your doorstep and I planned it out for weeks now it's finally sinking in. Betty right now is the last time I can think about what happens when you see my face again.

I stand on Y/N's porch and take several deep breaths trying to calm myself down as I raise my hand to knock on her door. I know I can't live with myself if I don't at least try so I knock three times on the door. 

The only thing I want to do is make it up to you. So I showed up at your party. Yeah, I showed up at your party. 

It was another party and I saw her. I stride across the room towards her and everyone stops to look at us. She turns to look at me and for the first time in weeks I look into her beautiful y/e/c eyes. 

Yeah, I showed up at your party Will you have me? Will you love me? Will you kiss me on the porch in front of all your stupid friends? If you kiss me will it be just like I dreamed it? Would it patch your broken wings? I'm only seventeen, I don't know anything but I know I missed you. 

I stare at her and I say, "Look I know I screwed up but I was drunk. I love you and I want nothing more than to be with you. I miss you so much, darling." 

She looks down at the floor before looking back up at me and saying, "It will take some time but yes I want to be yours again." 

Without further hesitation, I lean down and smash my lips against hers. I had missed the taste and feeling of them on mine. From around me, I hear people cheering and I feel my heart soar that she was willing to give me a second chance.
