"See you're just wasted and thinking about the past again, darling you'll be ok."

Vic Fuentes' voice filled my ears as I laid on my bed staring at the ceiling.

I had no idea why, but all the sudden I just felt like crap. I told my mom I was going to my room to listen to music, and she immediately understood.

I used to do this a lot when I was about 13, listen to music for hours on end. It always made me feel better. It got to be less as I got older, but sometimes I still need to listen to music. Like a physical NEED.

Hold On Till May had to be my favorite Pierce The Veil song ever, because it's just amazing. The first time I heard it I fought tears the whole time because I thought it was beautiful, then at the 'darling you'll be ok' part I started bawling uncontrollably. I couldn't explain it then, but now I know that it's because that single lyric is the one that got me through the last year of high school. Just hearing "darling you'll be ok" was good enough for me.

My music suddenly stopped, and I looked at my phone. Someone was calling me.

Damon <3

Yes Damon gets a heart by his name. Don't judge me.

"Hi." I answered, not even bothering to take out my earbuds.

"Stella you sound sad, is you ok?" Damon asked.

"I is fine."

"Nope. Fine doesn't mean fine. It's great, good, ok, awful, I hate you, fine. I'm coming to your house and I'm gonna make you happy, ok?"

"K den." I said, shaking my head. He hung up. I put my music back on play,

I looked at my clock and it was three in the afternoon. I'd been listening to Hold On Till May for three hours now. New personal record. Not that that's good really.

The song played about three more times, then my door flew open. Damon was suddenly next to my bed, poking me.

I pulled out my earbuds.

"Yes?" I said, looking up at him.

"Your mom said you've been up here for over three hours. Have you just been listening to," he looked at my phone "Hold On Till May the whole time?"

"Pretty much, yup."

"Wow."

"Yeah."

"Can I sit with you?" He asked. I nodded, moving and sitting up.

We sat cross-legged on my bed facing each other.

"So what's wrong? I know when you're sad." He said, I just shook my head. Damon moved closer to me.

"Tell meeeeeeeee!!" He whined like a little kid. I laughed and rolled my eyes, taking a deep breath.

"It's nothing specific, I just felt sad all of the sudden." I said, looking down. I hate telling people that because I've been told too many times that other people have it worse and I shouldn't just, be sad.

I felt Damon's arms wrap around me, and I felt myself hugging him back.

Suddenly I was crying. Crying over everything. Things from years ago. Things from high school. Becca. My father. Everything. And I just kept crying.

I don't know how long it was until I stopped.

But when I finally did, Damon was still holding me. I pulled away from him and wiped my eyes.

"Sorry..." I said. He shook his head.

"It's ok, sometimes you just need to let it out." He said with a small smile.

I returned the smile and held out an earbud.

"Want to listen to Hold On Till May 20,000 more times with me?"

Damon smiled and nodded, taking the earbud.

"Of course." He said.

I laughed and put my own earbud in, pressing play on my phone.

Not very far into the song, Damon laid down and I did the same. He wrapped an arm around me, pulling me closer.

I rested my head on his chest and he started to play with my hair. When the part came, he whispered in my ear along with the song "darling you'll be ok". I smiled and felt like crying. But in a good way.

We eventually fell asleep, and I never slept as well as I did then.

I honestly couldn't tell you how long we laid there. It could've been minutes, hours, weeks, months, years, forever. But it was perfect, and even in sleep, I wanted to freeze time and live in this moment forever.
