It'll Be Alright

I'm not sure how this one turned out, but I hope you like it. A little bit of a different style this time.

Lyrics are in Bold

The timing is a little off sorry. I tried my best

Ant's POV

I look up from the ground to see your sad and teary eyes

you look away from me and I see there's something you're tryna hide...

I walked into my flat and placed my keys down on the counter before getting some crisps. I narrowed my eyes at the cigarettes on the counter. Since when did Declan smoke? 

I looked up to see Dec looking at me with eyes brimming with tears. He turned his head and I look at him with worry. "What's wrong Dec."

I reach for your Hand but it's cold

 you pull away again

and I wonder what's on your mind 

Dec looked at me again and he starts to cry again and try's to explain

And then you say to me you made a dumb mistake

you start to tremble and your voice began to break

you say the cigarettes weren't your friends they were my mates

and I feel the colour draining from my face...

I looked at dec in pure shock I stepped away and tried to contemplate all that Dec had said. 

"Y-You cheated on me... You don't l-love me anymore?"

Dec looked at my apologetically and then shook his head. 

I grabbed my phone and I could hear Dec yelling for me to wait as I ran to the bus stop where thankfully the bus had just arrived. I sat on the bus holding back tears before I finally got to my stop and ran to Stephen's house and broke down in front of him. He was shocked to say the least but comforted me quietly nonetheless. After I had calmed down a bit I had explained everything and he replied sorrowfully.

And My friend said 

I know you love her but It's over mate

It doesn't matter put the phone away

It's never easy to walk away let her go

It'll be alright

I stayed at Stephen's house for a week, I had gotten fired from my job and I didn't want to be a burden so i went out to try and find a job. 

As i was out looking for places that were hiring after quickly scanning the internet for jobs. I saw him, Declan. I saw him with another man. One of my friends David was with him. 

When I got home I looked at my phone, Hoping that It would give me some sort of comfort. I browsed the texts, the pictures, the videos, everything. It only hurt more so I deleted them all.

So I still look back at all the messages you'd sent

And I know it wasn't right, but it was fucking with my head

And everything deleted like the past, yeah, it was gone

And when I touched your face, I could tell you're moving on

But it's not the fact that you kissed him yesterday

It's the feeling of betrayal, that I just can't seem to shake

And everything I know tells me that I should walk away

But I just wanna stay

That night I headed to our house and stood on the doorstep longingly hoping that Dec would open the door and see me there then tell me he still loved me and that It was just a really mean joke, but it didn't happen. 

I walked back to Stephen's house and didn't eat only walked to my bed and cried with loss and pain.

The next day I sat on the sofa looking at Dec's social media and Stephen caught me doing that. He said to me again.

And my friend said

I know you love her but It's over mate

It doesn't matter put the phone away

It's never easy to walk away

Let her go 

It'll be okay

It's gonna hurt for a bit of time 

so bottoms up lets forget tonight

And that's what we did. After we had had a few Drinks Stephen briefly sobered up and continued to comfort me.

You'll find another and you'll be just fine

let her go

I tried to move on. It took a while but I did it. I never forgot Declan. I never tried at another relationship because they weren't Dec. I became stable again.

Nothing heals

the past like time

and they can't steal

 the love your born to find

Every night I went to bed picturing Dec's smiling face

I stayed with Stephen for 4 months before finally being able to afford my own place. 

Soon the day came when I had to head back to Dec's flat in order to get my stuff. 

My heart was racing and I almost backed out before I heard Dec open the door to stare at me. Soon we both had tears flowing from our eyes and when I heard Dec's voice for the first time In months, I felt as If I was going to collapse.

"Anth..."

I kissed him. I knew I shouldn't have, but I couldn't control myself. My heart had taken control of my brain.

It'll Be alright...

He looked at me lovingly when we broke apart and he apologised.

It'll Be alright...

He told me all that had happened and how he couldn't stay with David because he realised that he loved me still.

It'll be alright...

I couldn't believe what I was hearing. He invited me inside and we talked for hours apologising and just realising what we would be If we were without each other.

It'll be alright...

We got back together and everyone was glad. We never took each other for granted. A year later I proposed to him and we got married back In Newcastle. We lived our life as best as we could and Bathed in each other's love because we both knew that we wouldn't survive another heartbreak.

It'll be alright...

And It really was alright...
