(Johnnie's POV)

I clicked on the notification as soon as I saw it...

(58 seconds earlier)

I lay in the motel bed, staring up at my ceiling, board as hell. I wonder if others have been in the position I'm in at this moment, laying in this bed, staring up at the plain white shade above them, tracing their eyes over the tiny little marks and grazes and tore paint, wondering what their purpose is in this world...

A notification popped up on my phone screen, so I rolled onto my side and picked up my phone in my hand, lightly tapping the screen to alarm it's senses that the owner would like to use their phone. My eyes looked over the words appearing in the little notification box on my screen.

'Jake 🎸🧛 had posted one new thing.'

My eyes widened and my fingers were fast to unlock my phone and immediately open up YouTube. My heart was pounding with excitement and love, it felt as though it was going to explode from the over drive of emotions I was experiencing. It was like one of those scenes in an anime where they get a text from their crush... not that I've watched many anime's...

I plugged my head phones in, and opened up the song, I went to press play when I stopped my thumb in its way to press the play button on the video.

This song had a cover...

I went back to pressing play, I loved the song already... I loved any song by Jake.

My eyes stared at the image, tracing over his hand, remembering how he would always touch my cheek when having a loving conversation with me, how he would cup my face with his hands when we kissed, a tear fell down my face. I rose my arm and soaked the salty water drop up with my sleeve, not allowing any further tears to fall from my eyes. I needed to remember, I was doing this for Jake's safety, that's why I made this decision, I shouldn't cry over it. 

Hmm... maybe this was his way of confirming for me that it was him, without letting the world know it was him. I looked at his nails and chuckled a bit, they had vampire teeth on them, classic Jake, prettying up his nails for one single photo... it meant the world though.

To everyone else it was just another photo roaming the internet... but for me... it was everything.

Maybe I should put a photo over my next song... confirming it's definitely me too.

Yeah, I should start working on another song.

I reached over to the side, grabbing my note book and pen, trying to think of some lyrics.

... It's not so perfect as it seems... and we were meant for better things... 

I muttered the words out loud as I wrote them down on the paper in my note book, some of the ink smudged from my pen, but it was still readable.

After about 46 minutes I managed to write out all the lyrics, and after another 53 minutes I managed to make music to it, then I went over to a vase with some flowers, hovering my hand above it, I had black nail polish on, and my hand tattoo was revealed in the photo, I thought it would be cute to match up my photo's with Jake's. I took the photo, but when I looked at it, it didn't look right, the flowers were on the edge of starting to die, and the room was dark, so it didn't look professional, so I went over to my window.

I put my hand onto the glass of the window, so it would still match up with Jake's photo. Then I recorded the song, put the cover over it, and posted it, a smile on my face through the whole process.


🖤🥀A little note from the Author🥀🖤

Hi guys, 2 chapters in one day!

By the way... I need advice.

So, my friends at school are being pricks, but they're all too blinded to see it.

They're kinda excluding me... I deleted them as contacts... should I just stop talking to them?

The thing is... then I would be left friendless.

And no one else really like me...

Anyway, bye guys, sorry for ✨depression dumping✨ on you :)
