Three Years

Chapter 6

*Don't play the song yet*
*Aphmau's POV*
I stood there in Aaron's arms for a good 5 minutes, until Garroth came up to us. He glared at Aaron, grabbing his wrist, pulling him over to our little camp ground. "You have some explaining to do." Garroth sad in a serious tone.
"What do you mean?" Aaron asked. "You know exactly what I mean!? Why didn't you come back!? Aphmau didn't leave her God dang house for three years because of you!? I swear I saw her cut herself one time!"
Aaron said nothing, opened his mouth, the closed it again. "Well?" Garroth asked.
"I didn't come back because I knew Aph hated me and... I didn't want to have my heart broken again."
"Again!?" Garroth shouted. "Look Aaron you left her and she's the one that was heart broken. You took her daughter and left."
"Guys please calm down." I said, a single tear slidding down my check. They looked at each other, then walked away.
"Hey Aaron?" I called. He turned around, and I waved him over. He strode over carefully then moved a little faster.
"You've changed." I said pointing at him with my hand. He nodded. "Aph, did you really cut yourself?" I slightly nodded.
I wasn't going to lie. Some days I felt so bad that I did cut. No one ever saw it, well everyone except apparently Garroth. I rolled up my sleeve and showed him. They were pretty deep.
Aaron gasped, "Why Aph? Why would you do this to yourself?!" He shouted. "Because I missed you Aaron! You know my life hasn't been very pleasant these past three years if you couldn't tell!" I yelled back, bursting into tears.
I fell into my knees, my head in my hands. He sat down next to me, and wrapped his arm around me.

You think you've heard this before
I'll try to say it differently
As long as it comes naturally to me
It's been making me sad
'Cause I can't find a better way
To speak the words I wanna say to you

Know how I love you
And know how I need you

And I want you to know
Won't let you down
No, I can't let go
And I want you to see
Everyday I wear my heart on my sleeve
On my sleeve

It's been driving me mad
Consistent tones and constant drones
Keep pulling me back inside my head
Nothing matter at all
The world will keep on spinning round
All these feeling keep on pouring out

Oh, how I love you
Oh, how I need you

And I want you to know
Won't let you down
No, I can't let go
And I want you to see
Everyday I wear my heart on my sleeve

I try to write the words down
Before they're lost and won't come out
Oh, please, help me sing my song

And I want you to know
Won't let you down
No, I can't let go
And I want you to see
Everyday I wear my heart on my sleeve
Heart on my sleeve
Heart on my sleeve
Heart on my sleeve

No, I can't let you go
Can't let you go

Oh, I want you to know
Won't let you down
Everyday, yeah, I can't let go
I wear my heart on my sleeve

"Your voice hasn't changed, has it?" I asked, whipping my eyes. "Nope. I would sing Lilith to sleep some nights, so I got practice." He smiled proudly.
"I missed you so much Aaron. Words couldn't even begin to describe how I felt when you left."
"I felt the same way Aph. I regret leaving. Every day I would." He sighed.
"Aph can you look at me please?" I did and with in and instant...

His lips were on mine.
