-

ben had left to start filming on his new project called 6 UNDERGROUND. the last time you had seen him was the airport, and he had only posted a small clip on his instagram of him jumping off a truck, but you hadn't spoke. you decided to go out for a walk to try and relax your mind and not worry about him.

'they pass me by all of those great romances'

seen as it was winter, the snow fell lightly on the trees and all the couples had come out and it just reminded you more of ben. you walked back home feeling even worse than before. when you got in you went straight up to your double bed and flopped onto it.

'one of us is crying'
'one of us is lying, in her lonely bed'

the thought of ben not being here next to you to comfort you, it broke your heart. after you had finished crying over ben and your emotions had return to normal, you went to the bathroom and wiped your face looking at pictures of ben on your phone.

'staring at the ceiling'
'wishing she was somewhere else instead'

you put your phone down knowing you weren't going to get a sudden text to change your mood even if you wished on it.

'one of us lonely'
'one of us is only'
'waiting for a call'

you started to wonder if ben was thinking about you and maybe if he was waiting for you. you checked your messages and you'd already sent him two daily updates and he hadn't seen them. you couldn't invite anyone over as everyone was busy. you felt so alone so you went downstairs to grab a tub of ben's favourite ice cream and taking it back upstairs.

'sorry for herself'
'feeling stupid'
'feeling small'

you began to wonder if you had maybe done something wrong. you traced your memory back to when he left and recited every word, then doubting yourself. you rubbed your eyes, clicking onto NARCOS, one of ben's favourite shows and started to watch it.

'wishing he had never left at all'

over in Dubai, ben had started to feel the same. missing your voice and your smile. especially missing your laugh. some days he didn't like to film because he was worried that maybe you wasn't ok or just upset that he couldn't see you. he looked at his phone screen taking another drag on his cigarette and then closing it sighing out the smoke. he wished he'd never left at all. you guys only spent a week together before he left again.

waiting for a call

it got quite late and you just watched your messages float on and off your screen. you couldn't be bothered to reply unless it was ben. you put your phone down beside you sighing and turning onto your stomach, propping your leg up and crossing your arms resting your head in your arms. you closed your eyes maybe trying to get a hint of sleep. a couple minutes later you phone started to ring buzzing right next to.you looked at the name and saw that ben was calling.

you could finally sleep in peace after all

a/n : heyo!!! so this was short as hell. did you like me doing this? i wanted to try something new :)
