no longer alive

SHAWN MENDES IMAGINES
→ no longer alive ←

They both stood on opposite sides of the room, saying nothing to one another. Her face was drained, her lips and eyes were dry, and her throat was hoarse from all the yelling and fighting.

She kept telling herself that they would be okay and that they could work through this rough patch in their relationship. He did as well. But the two of them knew, deep down, that there was nothing they could do to save their relationship. Absolutely nothing.

Their love for each died a long time ago. Whatever they once had, is no longer there. No longer alive. Yet here they are, trying to hard to bring back all the feelings. Avoiding to let each other go. They always needed each other. But it's over. Everything they had, was over. And they didn't want to believe it.

Shawn stared at her, tears dripping from his hazel eyes. He stood up and walked over to her, bringing his large, rough yet warm hand to her cheek. She relaxed against his touch and closed her eyes, letting a sigh escape her lips.

"Please, we can't do this. Not yet, I don't want to let you go." His voice was shaky. His bottom lip shook as he held back more tears. "I love you."

She shook her head. "You don't love me anymore Shawn. We don't love each other anymore. You and I both know that it's over. Our love is no longer alive. It's all gone. Everything is gone."

Shawn dropped to his knees and let his hands travel to her hips as he held onto her. He looked up into her eyes. They were red and dry. She looked so emotionless. So drained.

"Shawn, I really did love you. But we can't keep letting each other suffer because we are too afraid to let each other go. You know this. Please, stop letting me suffer. Stop making yourself suffer." She whispered, crouching down in front of him.

The two of them stared into each other's eyes. Shawn closed the gap between them and crashed his lips onto hers. The kiss was so gentle yet filled with forced love. He was forcing himself to love her again. But nothing seemed to work. It was all over. Everything they feared to happen was coming true.

Everything between them is dead. Their love for each other is dead. Letting go would be the easiest thing. But moving on would be hell for them. They don't have to love each other to make it hard to move on. It's going to be hard moving on from all the memories and the way they made each other feel for the six years of being with each other.

"Please promise me something." Shawn whispered, pulling away and breathing heavily.

"Yes?"

"I know our love is no longer alive, but please, don't forget about me." He mumbled, kissing her lips once more.

She sniffled, nodding her head. "I could never forget about my first love."
