Falling Means Breaking: An Adam Levine FanFic

Chapter 2

It took some work to get back to sleep after I saw Adam's handwriting scrawled across my window. Once I did get back to sleep, I didn't want to wake up, because waking up meant choosing to face my problems. My father finally came in and woke me up around noon. I took a shower and got dressed, throwing my hair into a messy bun, and we went out for lunch. 

Going out in L.A. is the best thing in the world. You can throw a guitar pick in any direction from my front porch and hit someone making music. That's what I love about our town, all the great music I hear everyday. At lunch we were serenaded by a new band, N'Sync, and I kind of liked the song. My father was oddly quiet all through out lunch. Once we were back in the car I finally had enough courage to ask, "Dad, are you alright?" He started the car and backed out of our parking space without saying another word. 

"I think it would be best for you if you move in with your mother in England." I felt like he had just dropped a bag of rocks on my chest. "I am going to let you make this choice. You're fifteen years old and I think you deserve to have a say in this choice." The weight increased more. This was a big decision that I had to make. 

"Can I have a few days to think about it?" 

"Yeah, of course." The rest of the ride was spent in silence. I had so many thoughts in my head I barely noticed that Adam had Jesse and Mickey over. As much as I hated that he was doing the talent night with them, I had to admit they sounded great. Adam was abusing his guitar to the point it was wailing those notes I loved so much. Listening to him play guitar was perfect. I walked inside my house and went up to my room. My guitar was laid across my bed. It was time to work on my song. After three and a half hours and 26 cups of coffee, I finally had it finished.

I must have been a fool 

To love you so hard for so long

So much stronger than before

But so much harder to move on

And now the bitter chill of the winter

Still blows through me like a plague

Only to wake up with an empty bed

On a perfect summer day

My world just feels so cold

And you find yourself

Walking down the wrong side of the road

I can't lie, you're on my mind

Stuck inside my head

I wanna feel your heart beat for me instead, yeah

I just die so much inside

Now that you're not there

I wanna feel your heartbeat like yesterday

I never did my best to

Express how I really felt

And now that I know exactly what I want

You found somebody else

My world just feels so cold

And you find yourself

Walking on the wrong side of the road

I can't lie, you're on my mind

Stuck inside my head

I wanna feel your heart beat for me instead, yeah
