So Long Soldier (danisnotonfire)

Maybe Later

''after my blood, turns into alcohol'' I sang quietly, I was cross-legged in my bedroom, strummung my steel stringed acoustic. I sat for a while, playing random parts of the song. I hadn't been practicing the guitar in months and my mum was probably going to kill me. I sighed and pulled my fingers from the frets, flexing them for a second, I had creepy long fingers. 

''That was so pretty Ron'' Phil said from behind me, almost making me jump put my skin. I laughed and turned to him.

''You scared the shit out of me'' I breathed

''You ever heard of locking your door?'' he said chuckling

''Have you ever heard of knocking'' I shot back laughing

''Where's the fun in that?'' he said, I smiled at him. ''What song was that?''

''Give Me Love'' I replied, resting my guitar against the wall ''Ed Sheeran''

''Ah''

''how you feeling?'' I asked, he shrugged. We'd been told by the hospital it was low Premiflotus (I just made that up, I'm pretty impressed) Which was a temporary thing which gave him low blood sugars from lack of sleep, trust him for staying up all night editing. But he's gotten meds and was on the mend, we just had to make sure he was sleeping well at night.

''I'm glad you're okay, you scared us'' I smiled ''Thought Dan was going to have a heart attack'' 

''He worries a lot'' Phil shrugged ''People don't realise it but he does, he's sweet really''

''so many Phan feels'' I smirked and Phil burst out laughing.

DAN

I sighed and shut the door quietly to my flat. Phil would have been asleep hours ago. I'd had to go out with my mum all day, having to leave Ronnie alone which I really hated doing. She was worrying me, I worry too much. I was scared she was going to cut again. I never wanted her to leave my sight. I walked into the living room quietly, not wanting to wake up Phil. I was about to switch on the light when I saw Ronnie curled up on the couch, the blankets we kept under Phil's bed covering her. I smiled, thanking him in my head for looking after her. I crept over to the window to shut the blinds.

''You know I'm not actually asleep'' she said, I stopped and turned round to her, chuckling. 

''Oh course not'' I said, flicking the small light on and sitting next to her, maybe a good foot away. She frowned at me before pushing herself under my arm.

''Very subtle Ronnie'' I laughed, running my fingers through her hair.

"Fuck subtle" she murmured, tracing feathery kisses across my collar bones and up my neck. Which sent shivers down my spine. She seemed to notice cause she tilted her head, grinning up at me. I nudged my nose against hers and she giggled a tinkling laugh.

"Let's watch a movie" she said, hoping up from out of my arms. It felt oddly cold not having her there. She pushed up onto her toes to look at our shelves full of DVD's. I saw the scars poking up the top of her jeans and I bit my lip. It broke my heart a little every time I saw them. I snapped out my thoughts as she pounced onto my lap with a DVD in her hands. She was practically straddling me when she held it close to my face.

Captain America.

"Pleeeaaaseee?" She wined, bouncing on my lap. She was such a kid sometimes. I'd watched this movie with her maybe about 7 times since I'd met her.

"Go on" I said rolling my eyes, she grinned. I liked it when she smiled. She kissed the end of my nose before running over to the DVD player and pushing it in. She ran back and snuggled down under my arm again. Resting her head on my chest and I started running my fingers through the ends of her hair.
