The One That Got Away (Requested)

FIRST OFF SORRY WHOEVER REQUESTED THIS, I HAD IT HALFWAY DONE AS A DRAFT ON THE OTHER BOOK AND FORGOT TO FINISH/ POST IT. SO HERE IT IS DEAR.

WARNING: If you didn't expect a shit ton of angst, you are in for a ROLLER COASTER AND I AM OKAY WITH IT.

We met our in between high school and college, Ethan Nestor. Your soulmate, your love, your everything.

Summer after high school when we first met
We'd make out in your Mustang to Radiohead
And on my 18th Birthday
We got matching tattoos

We got matching tattoo's on our right wrist. It was a little Gizmo, the start of the movement of our beating hearts. We were both broken, but together we were each others fitting gears. It was the start of change, a new us.

Used to steal your parents' liquor
And climb to the roof
Talk about our future
Like we had a clue
Never planned that one day
I'd be losing you

I came home one night from work, we had plans to spend the night together but work got in the way. You said you were going to work on videos, why did you break our gears.

In another life
I would be your girl
We'd keep all our promises
Be us against the world

Did he think I didn't care enough about him?

Did I not love him enough?

Why did you have to break our promises to each other?

In another life
I would make you stay
So I don't have to say
You were the one that got away
The one that got away

He got up and walked away, never to speak about the girl sitting under our covers.

I love him more than he loved me.

Some gears are defective, aren't they? Clearly, he was one of them.

I was June and you were my Johnny Cash
Never one without the other, we made a pact
Sometimes when I miss you
I put those records on (Whoa)

I don't need him.

I don't need the man who ruined my life.

Homewrecker is what he is.

Someone said you had your tattoo removed
Saw you downtown singing the Blues
It's time to face the music
I'm no longer your muse

He took a break from Youtube with no explanation. Just a goodbye for now and that was it. 

Face the music, Ethan. You fucked up bad.

But in another life
I would be your girl
We'd keep all our promises
Be us against the world

I set on my separate way never to speak to him again. 

His face reminded you of joy, but the only difference is he was just false hope. Only false hope liked to resurface.

In another life
I would make you stay
So I don't have to say
You were the one that got away
The one that got away
The o-o-o-o-o-one
The one that got away

A year has passed and I wonder what went wrong. Why did you do this Ethan- Why. 

You were the one for me and you threw it all away like I was some cheap piece of notebook paper.

All this money can't buy me a time machine (Nooooo)
Can't replace you with a million rings (Nooooo)
I should've told you what you meant to me (Whoa)
'Cause now I pay the price

Keep the diamond ring. I am never going back to a monster like you.

In another life
I would be your girl
We'd keep all our promises
Be us against the world

"But Y/n, Please... I'm sorry," He says with sadness in his voice.

"But why did you do it, the picture you painted just shows it all. You are a coward who's idea of sorry is nothing," I scream.

"But y/n listen," He says.

"No. Not anymore," You say shaking your head.

In another life
I would make you stay
So I don't have to say
You were the one that got away
The one that got away
The o-o-o-o-o-one 

I ran as fast as I could. Away from him- Away from the memories- Away from regret.

In another life
I would make you stay
So I don't have to say
You were the one that got away
The one that got away

The one that got away was the both of us. Away from the love we had- and away from him.

A/n- ANGST QUEEN PH HERE. 

Lots of love!
