Come And Save Me, Tonight.

Three Mile Smile

I managed to calm myself down, and I walked out of the bathroom and plopped down on the couch next to Steven, and we sat there in silence for about a minute. 
Knowing it was going to be a long, and depressing night. I downed my drink, and then grabbed his glass.
"Looks like it's time for that second drink, huh?" I said as I strutted back into the kitchen. 
just as I was pouring him another Jack and Coke, I felt two hands wrap around my waist, and then I felt someone kiss my shoulder. It was Steven. 
He pressed himself into me, hugging me from behind. I could feel his anger, and pain, and sadness raidiating through me. Just then, I collected all his anger and made it my own, I set my hands down on the counter, and began to shake as I could feel the tension rising through me, while Steven still held me from behind.

"GOD DAMNIT WHY WOULD SHE TELL YOU!?" I shouted. I started having an axiety attack, and I tried so hard to hold it all in, so I didn't seem like some psychopath in fron of Steven. "WHY WOULD SHE DO IT." I griped his arms and pulled him off of me, so I could turn to face him. He seemed genuinely confused.

"What are you talking about, Mia?" He asked, tears forming in his eyes.

"Mary... My manager, what did she say to you today? We were in the Starbucks across from PacSun today when we saw you go in. I was freaking out and I didn't want to see you, so she let me leave early and she said she'd take care of it. Why would she tell you?!" I just couldn't take it anymore. 

"I didn't talk to Mary today, I only talked to Rob about those jeans I got the other day..." He paused. "Tell me what, Mia? What did you think she told me?"

"Everything, I burried my face in my hands. "Everything. Everything you just said. Those exact words came out of my mouth earlier today. The thing about the electric rope attatching us.. I said that exact analogy to her. And I told her about the lyrics I wrote." His face lit up.

"you wrote lyrics about me?" He smiled.

Just then, I grabbed his hand, and let him into the little recording studio, and I rolled the track back, hit the red button, picked up my guitar, and played. 
" Your sweet talkin, hip shakin, wobble gonna blow a girl awaaayyy
Kiss butt, and guess what, even double crossin' dogs have their days
so forget about, regret about you I ain't afraid to say

Yeah, I'm missing you,
Just like you want me too,
You made me trip
Into the grind
Now I can't 
Get you off
Of my mind."

As I stopped the recording, and turned to look at Steven, his beautiful big smile was three miles wide.
