Stories Behind Songs (One-Shots)

It Will Rain by Bruno Mars

I absolutely love this song and I thought, hey, time to make a story about it.

I caressed her soft face as tears strolled down.  I resisted the tears that were threatening to fall from my eyes as well.  I could never say goodbye to Megan St. James.  She was the light to my world.  In the darkness I call my life, she was the only light there was and if she was ever gone, I would be shattered.

I kissed her one last time as all our memories melted together in that one kiss and with that, she left teary-eyed never to see me again.

I broke down and lied on my couch.  I had never felt this depressed about anything in my life.  Megan was my entire life and without it, I felt like a sailor lost in the middle of the ocean with no hope of ever getting out.

Medicine cures bruises, scars and other things when the body isn't functioning perfectly but I knew that no matter how much pills I take, my heart would still ache like this.

For those who don't believe in science as much and say that religion is the solution are also wrong.  No matter how long and hard I beg to the Lord, nothing's happening.  We're still separated and I can't take that.

Megan, please remember how much sacrifices I'm taking just to be with you.  Even though the entire world tells us to separate, we're still together because I fought.  I fought for the two of us.  I've put this fight up for so long because I knew that the two of us were perfect.  I believed that no matter what obstacles came our way, we could fight it as long as we were together.  I fought because I never want to see you close the door and walk away from me forever.

The day you left, the sky grew dark.  Clouds obscured the sky and my windows closed shut because the strong wind kept pushing it close everytime I open it.  I didn't have to watch the news to know that a storm was coming.  Was this a sign?

For the next week, the rain didn't stop.  Thankfully, I didn't have to go to work as it was suspended due to the weaher.  The fact that you left must've scared away all light in this world.  I never saw sunlight as dark clouds covered its way.  The sky which was usually clear in our small sunny town was now dark.

Thank God no one saw it but as I watched the storm outside thinking about the two of us, I blinked away more tears as the rain continued to pour.

They say that family was the one you could trust the most but even with that test, I had already failed.  Let's face it,  I'm sure I wasn't exactly the type of man she'd want her daughter to wed.  Your father's even worse.  He can't look me in the eye without insulting or saying something negative about me.  It's disturbing but when I see your smile, I know I can keep my mouth shut and withstand it.  But I can't blame them.  If I were them, I would feel the same way.  Behind our backs, I know that they wonder how their magnificent daughter could walk hand-in-hand with a troublesome guy like me.

But Megan, I know that the reason why they feel that way.  They were put together in the perfect circumstances and they don't understand how wonderful a love like ours can be.  I've said it a million times.  Just watch me, Megan.  Watch me as I convince them that we can be a chance.  Watch me as I convince them that I'm the best source of their daughter's happiness.  I'll do anything for you.  In this palace of shattered glasses, I'd put every glass piece back together just to be with you.  No distractions could stop me from making this palace beautiful again.  Even if I was bleeding, I wouldn't stop as long as you're there.

I won't stop.  I know that it seems like we'd given up but even though we're a million miles apart, I won't stop.  I can't stand to say goodbye to you.  Don't let me go.

The rain has stopped already but no matter how clear the sky can be, without you, everyday just seems like it'll rain.
