"Hey, It's Grey, If you're your trying to reach me, which you are, leave a message. I'll probably call back in a few."

It's crazy.

How dependent Midnight was becoming to the dark haired Filipino boy. Her world seemed to stop every time he was near, but seemed to move in motion every time he was there.

She hated it. She hated how all she could ever think, talk, dream about was Grey. The Filipino boy who managed to place himself between the empty blanks of her heart.

There were moments, moments where Midnight knew she was falling too deep, too fast. But those moments faded into the background once Grey enters her sight.

She's never felt this comfortable. It irks her. She's never felt like she could scream, laugh, and cry all at the same time. She's never felt her heart beat and stop when someone was around. She's never felt like taking the time of the day to genuinely care about someone.

Midnight hated this.

But the moment Grey picked up his phone and called her back, she forgot.

- - - 

"I should honestly stop." Midnight couldn't help but whisper, while typing frantically to keep up with Grey.

"This isn't healthy." She giggled softly as Grey and her made random jokes that no one else would understand. Only them.

"I'm so stupid." She glanced to check whether Grey seened or was at least online.

"I don't like him that much." She clarified, as if she wasn't alone in her room, reading all their old convos, letting her mind drift back to the past.

"I don't need him." She told herself as she sent Grey the picture of  her exam scores and homework.

"I don't want him." She denied as her eyes drifted to the pretty blonde who wouldn't stop talking and touching Grey.

"I can handle myself" she whispered wishing Grey could hear her and place her in his  arms telling her it would all be alright. She'll be alright.

"He doesn't matter." She tried to explain as her friends teased her when they saw all the photos and texts she and Grey tended to do during class.

"Who cares, it's just a boy." She joked as she compared each boy, every boy, To Grey. None of them seemed to hold a light close to him.

"I.. I'm fine without out him." She tried to convince herself as panic arose within her. He hasn't texted back in days. What if he doesn't care anymore? What if he forgot? What if.

What if.

This was Midnight's worry. One day, any day, Grey could realize she was literally nothing. She wasn't pretty, she wasn't funny. Midnight's never got to have something she could truly call hers. So the thought of Grey leaving her, caused a frenzy in her already panicked heart.

"Hey Grey, Its's Midnight. I know you're probably tons busy, and I understand. But I was hoping you'd call back?? You've been gone for 3 days and I'm Lowkey worried. Call back when u can. Bye!"

It was 12.

This was usually Midnight's favorite time. She got to learn more about the dark-eyed boy, and got to show him how important he was. Now, it felt bittersweet. Almost like an old memory you try to forget, but can't get rid off.

"I hope you're doing okay. Call back."

She waited. Midnight was always waiting. She was willing.  especially  for Grey. He was worth it. Or so she told herself.

"Are you okay??"

She let her mind drift to the good days. The good memories. She would cling onto them if she could. Those were her favorite. She rarely had bad memories of Grey. He was her savior.

"I'm going to bed. Goodnight"

She closed her eyes and felt the usual joy and excitement spark within her, as the thought of Grey smiling. Laughing, doing the usual things. Being him.

"Goodnight."

She waited. He never called but that never stopped Midnight from loving the dark- eyed boy. He was hers. She didn't know it yet, but she was his.
