CALUMS POV
Its been 3 months I haven't seen her she never has time to call were so distant like strangers."Its like I just don't even know her anymore she's changed so much mate" I said to Luke" its hard especially when you both aren't at home" he replied. "It sucks ass I think she wants to move on i hear her talk about how her professors love her. They want her to stay there and become a lawyer at druthers the biggest law firm in the country. All we ever do is text and phone calls there's a point where its not enough" I vented."I'm so sorry mate but you love each other and the best apart about being in a relationship is that you grow and you change as people yet you love each other. I know she loves you and that she misses you" Luke reassured me usually that was enough but not today. I suddenly felt inspired song lyrics poured out of me I've finally come up with the song I'm going to write for her its a sad emotional one.
"Close As Strangers"Six weeks since I've been away
And now you're saying everything has changed and I'm afraid that I might be losing you and every night that we spend alone It kills me thinking of you on your own
And I wish I was back home next to you
Oh, everyday
You feel a little bit further away
And I don't know what to say
Are we wasting time talking on a broken line?
Telling you I haven't seen your face in ages
I feel like we're as close as strangers Won't give up
Even though it hurts so much Every night I'm losing you in a thousand faces Now it feels we're as close as strangers
Late night calls and another text is this as good as we're gonna get?Another timezone taking me away from you
Living dreams in fluorescent lights While you and I are running out of time But you know that I'll always wait for you
Oh, everyday
You feel a little bit further away
And I don't know what to say
Are we wasting time Talking on a broken line?
Telling you I haven't seen your face in ages
I feel like we're as close as strangers Won't give up
Even though it hurts so much Every night I'm losing you in a thousand faces Now it feels we're as close as strangers
On the phone I can tell that you wanna move on Through the tears I can hear that I shouldn't have gone
Every day gets harder to stay away from you
So tell me..Are we wasting time
Talking on a broken line?
Telling you I haven't seen your face in ages
I feel like we're as close as strangers
Wasting time Talking on a broken line
Telling you I haven't seen your face in ages I feel like we're as close as strangers Won't give up Even though it hurts so much Every night I'm losing you in a thousand faces Now it feels we're as close as strangers
Six months since I went away
And I know everything has changed
But tomorrow I'll be coming back to youAfter 4 hours I had lyrics and a tune"guys what do you think" i ask them. "She needs to hear it this song is brilliant cal"!!! Luke exclaimed. "Yeah seriously mate its raw and emotional" Mikey added. "Thanks guys I really poured my soul into it this is how I'm feeling I won't give up I just hope she doesn't". I called Sadie she actually answered"don't have much time cal headed out with my friends" she told me quickly. "This'll only take a minute tomorrow the shows at Madison square garden it'd mean a lot if you were there" I told her.
"What time does it start" "7 pm sharp" "I just cleared cleared my schedule wouldn't miss it for the world" she told me. A glimpse of the Sadie I fell in love with appeared maybe there is hope...the next day we arrived in New York I was so happy to see her to hug her to kiss her. She has changed a lot she's more alive than ever we went to my hotel room I wanted to talk to her before the show.
"I love you Sades and these past 3 months have been really rough on our relationship. Here I am standing here still that same boy you fell in love with and here you are this new and exciting person yet I also hope the girl I love is still in there" I confessed. "Calum I know things haven't been easy and knowing you youre probably worried I don't love you or that I want to move on. I do and I don't I love you more than anything but this is my city its my place" Sadie said softly."its okay Sades I'll let go if you want me too just know that I'd love to hold onto you forever though" I told her.
It was show time we sung she looks so perfect out of my limit 18 and beside you now its time for close as strangers. "For tonights closer well be singing a new one I wrote by myself about a person whom I love but just don't know anymore" I said and looked directly at Sadie.
SADIE POV
Holy shit that son if a bitch wrote a sing about me"6 weeks since I went away and now your sayin everything has changed. And I'm afraid that I might be loosing you and every night that we spend alone it kills me thinking of you on your own. I wish I was back home next too you" calum sung right to me. The chorus hit me hard."Oh every day you feel a little but further away and I don't know what to say are we wasting time talking on a broken line telling you I haven't seen your face in ages. I feel like were as close as strangers won't give up even though it hurts soi much every night I'm loosing you in a thousand faces now it feels like were as close as strangers" . Calum put his whole heart into this song I get it now.
He's trying to tell me that I've been distant that he loves me he won't give us up. He loves me yet he doesn't know me anymore that he's loosing me. Do I really love calum enough to possibly give up New York and my potential I have their? "Sadie as your friend but more importantly as Calums best friend. You should come home with us I have never seen Calum as happy before since he's met you. I've also never seen that boy so depressed and heartbroken he's lost the best thing in his life." Cates said that hit home for me she then proceeded to tell me all about how miserable he's been.
Truth is as much as I love new York I also hate it its always busy there no beaches strange weather patterns everything's so fast paced here I miss taking my time. I cried and clapped as loud as ever when he finished the song. Us girls left"I'm hoping that the song made you feel the opposite way" he said sincere I looked into those dark brown eyes."calum can you ever forgive me for being so horrible I'm so sorry I love you I wanna go home to finish these last two years of school. Just promise me one day well return here in the future" I said hugging him. "I promise I've missed you so damn much baby girl"
