7 | all i wanted was to see you

song: in my veins by andrew belle ft. erin mccarley
(play on repeat)

There is a part of me
that is desperate to know
if my absence has done any damage to you.
That there is a possibility that you too,
experience long restless nights
due to the thought of me.
That your heart is broken in the same places as mine.
I want to know
that I am not the only one hurting from this.
I want to know
that I actually meant something to you.

Baileys POV

I walk alongside Malia and Scott, whispering random words to eachother as we giggle.

I catch a few stares at me but smile back. Then I notice that a lot of the attention of everyone is down the hall.

I am about to look towards where everyone's attention was till Malia means in and whispers something that fully cracks me up.

My eyes squint so hard as I clench into my stomach, bursts of laughs exiting my mouth. I feel my cheekbones piercing through as they heat up.

The sound of my loud obnoxious laugh fills the halls, but I didn't care.

My eyes begin to flutter open as I calm my breathing.

But that's when everything stopped.

Everything.

My movement.

My breathing.

My heartbeat.

My smile.

It just dropped.

I squinted my eyes a little while blinking, wondering if this is really happening or if this is just some twisted joke I was seeing. My mind begins the explode as I wonder if I am actually seeing this.

Once I shut my eyes for a good 2 seconds and fully open them again.

I know for sure that this is all real. This is really happening. He is standing right there.

This hair looked that fresh kind of messy that I always loved. He had grown a little scruff. He wore that colour that suited him so well. I swear he invented the colour.

A red jersey.

One that I remember vividly since it was my favourite thing to see him in.

And now.

Here he is. Wearing it.

I look at him. Observing everything I haven't seen in forever.

Then.

I look into his eyes.

His god damn eyes.

That beautiful hazel sight. I swear something in them was like life shooting right out. He had light in them. A light that I loved staring in. I could get lost in them forever.
