Day in day out, I spent with you. It came to the point where I thought I would go crazy without you. And suddenly, I had to go. I had to do a music course for 2 months in America, and there was no way you could come with me or see me other than a Skype call. Do you remember our Goodbye Paige? I never wanted to let go. And I wrote you a song. This is never be alone, which you have heard before. It was the first and only one before today that I've ever shown you. And when I came back, we sang it together in the car on the way home.

Paige knew this was coming. She remembered it like it was yesterday. The agonizing few months when he had left her with only a dozen of his t-shirts, a song and a handful of Skype calls. She could only go on that for so long and the relief of being in his arms when he came back was enough to bring tears to her eyes just at the memory. What she would give to be in his arms right
now.
As Paige pressed play, she hummed along with the tune. She still knew every word, every chord and every sweet beat of this song.
It was hers, like all the others.
I promise that one day I'll be around
I'll keep you safe
I'll keep you sound
Right now it's pretty crazy
And I don't know how to stop or slow it down
Hey
I know there are some things we need to talk about
And I can't stay
Just let me hold you for a little longer now
Take a piece of my heart
And make it all your own
So when we are apart
You'll never be alone [2x]
You'll never be alone
When you miss me close your eyes
I may be far but never gone
When you fall asleep tonight just remember that we lay under the same stars
And hey
I know there are some things we need to talk about
And I can't stay
Just let me hold you for a little longer now
And take a piece of my heart
And make it all your own
So when we are apart
You'll never be alone [6x]
And take a piece of my heart
And make it all your own
So when we are apart
Never be alone.
You'll never be alone
Smiling through her tears, Paige carried out the last beautiful note before collapsing onto the bed again.
She still needed him.

There isn't anything I can say that takes away the literal bleakness of this story omg
