loving someone ❁ matty healy and halsey

Well now that you've got your gun, its much harder now the police have come

I woke up with a start, sweating. Ashley was already awake, staring worriedly at me with nothing but a t-shirt on.

"You were whimpering in your sleep" she stroked my face with her finger "Are you okay?"

I grabbed her and hugged her tightly "They killed you, shot you in the heart. I watched you die, fade away. It's all my fault Ashley that we're in this mess" I started to cry "We gotta run away from the boys in the blue, we have to go now, we-"

She cut me off by placing one of her fingers on my lips "Shhh" she said. She used both her thumbs to wipe away my tears. "I shouldn't have pulled the trigger but I did. It's my fault and only mine, it was my decision. You told me to point it. Not use it. I was so scared Matty. I am so scared" she whispered. She was crying now.

We held each other and just cried.

We fell asleep again and I woke up to the sound of sirens. Ashley shrieked and I started to shake.

My gun sat on the floor and I grabbed it, doing my best to get my fingerprints all over it to get rid of hers. She didn't notice thankfully, she was hiding under her bed.

Well, I thought she was, turns out she was just getting something.

My eyes widened at the hand gun in her hand.

"Ashley..."

The sirens were outside the complex.

Ashley started to cry "Matty. I love you" she raised it to her head.

"If you love me you won't decapitate yourself Ashley. It'll be okay I promise please stay. Stay, stay, stay, stay" I walked towards her and held her in my arms, kissing her as the front door got kicked in.

"NYPD, SHOW YOURSELVES"
