S.O.T.D:  ALL OF ME BY JOHN LEGEND (FT LINDSEY STIRLING)

*THE FEELS* 

It took us almost an hour and a half to drive to Trish's house in Orange County.

"This is it" Seth whispered driving up a long cobblestone driveway. The house sat on some sort of a hill and was largely made up of brick, with a couple of glass panels. It was pretty big but gave off an air of warmth as the porch lights illuminated the darkened sky.

"Oh, crap" Andrew mumbled from the backseat. I turned to look at him and he pointed to the porch where someone sat, staring at the car.

Seth opened the drivers side door and the person on the porch came hurtling down at us.

I was convinced it was Usain Bolt.

"Get off my property!" A female shriek erupted and Trish threw herself at Seth.

"Trish!" Andrew boomed as fist after fist connected with Seth's chest. Seth, on the other hand, just took them, absorbing them.

"I hate you" She yelled letting her hands fly at top speed.

We unbuckled our seat belts hastily and ran over to Seth.

"No" Seth put a hand up, making us stop in our places.

"I trusted you!" She wasn't letting up as each hit sounded against his chest...he was definitely going to bruise, "And you took that and stepped on it, you ungrateful idiot!"

"I was the only that stayed mute when everyone else called you a lazy pig for not taking a seat on your dad's business council! I stood by your side when you figured out that you were allergic to garlic and swole up like a puffer fish! I ate McDonald's for you!" slow tears ran down her face and I quickly looked away, "What does she have that I don't?"

"Baby" Seth tried softly but her small hand came up and connected with his cheek with a sick smack.

"I will kill you if you call me that again" her voice was weak and she dropped her hands from where they were, gripping his shirt, "I hate you"

"I hate you" she whispered as her knees buckled and she fell into him. He caught her with steady arms and didn't let up at her futile attempts at pushing him away.

"I hate me too" Seth's voice cracked as he buried his head in her wavy hair.

"But why do I still love you?" She asked sobbing against his chest, "Why did you make me love you if you didn't love me?"

I blinked back sad tears as they both crumpled to the ground, with her crying and him holding her securely, "But I do"

"Let's take a walk" Andrew mumbled taking hold of my elbow and spinning me so my back was to the couple.

"And leave them here?" I whispered as he rolled his eyes.

"He brought us for moral support, not to act as councillors...we need to let them figure it out" He didn't even wait for my response before he began dragging me down the hill.

"Fine. Let go" I huffed once we hit the sidewalk. I straightened my shirt and glared at him, "You rumpled it"

"Oh em gee, I'm so sorry for rumpling a shirt that you can, indeed, iron back out" he placed a mocking hand to his lips and smirked at me. I tried to hold a straight face but burst into laughter.

"I can't believe you said 'Oh em gee'" I murmured as we began walking, our converse clad feet making gentle thud's against the concrete.

"I say~"
