I took a chance. I took a shot. You might think I'm bulletproof,but I'm not. You took a swing. I took it hard. Down here from the ground I see who you are. I'm sick and tired of your attitude. I'm feeling like I don't know you. You tell me that you love me, then cut me down. I need you like a heartbeat, but you know you've got a mean streak. It makes run for cover when when you're around. Here's to you, and your temper, yes, I remember what you said last night. And I know that you see what you're doing to me. You can write a book on how to ruin someone's perfect day. Well, I get so confused and frustrated. Forget what I'm trying to say.But I'm sick and tired of your reasons. I got no one to believe in. You tell me that you want me, then push me around. Why, do you have to make me feel small, so you can feel whole inside? Why, do you have to put down my dreams, so you're the only thing on my mind? You tell me that you want me, then cut me down. You ask me for my love, then push me around. tell me why. Why? Why? I take a step back, and let you go. I told you I'm not bulletproof, now you know.

"I can't trust you, I can't listen to you, I can't believe you. I want nothing to do with you get the fuck out of my life Harry!" I yell at him while tears start forming in my eyes but I blink them away quickly. I will not be weak not now not after everything. "I don't understand I just wanna be with you Jess why is that so hard to believe why do you keep treating me like shit when all I do is treat you like a fucken princess I want you, I want to be with you, I care for you, I can treat you just the way you deserve to be treated just please listen to me I-" I rudely cuts him off before he can continue with his lie "I don't want to listen to you your just going to hurt me and leave me like everyone else just save yourself some energy and leave already" he stares into my eyes trying to find a glimise of hope but theres nothing there just dark, lifeless. "What don't you understand I'm not going anywhere."Complete
The truth about Love
"So I meant nothing to you?" Whoa, change of direction. "We could have made it work, you could have talked to me. Told me that this was what you wanted." I can't speak, all this time, he thinks I left because of the contract, that I choose fame over him? "I would have followed you anywhere." That last statement kills me, I have no idea how I'm still standing up surely it's because I'm holding on to the door. "Derek, you have it all wrong." My phone rings the all too familiar ringtone interrupting us once again. I try to shut it off but it's too late. "It's like he knows when I'm with you." he says as he slams the car door closed. He runs his hands down his face "But how can he? I bet he doesn't even know I exist, you forgot I did." His words hit me like knives straight to my heart, more so because I can feel the pain behind them. "Derek I didn't forget you." I whisper taking a step towards him. "Save it, go ahead and call your boyfriend back, I'm going to take a cab." He turns around and heads back towards the street. I want to follow him, I should follow him, but I can't, I wouldn't know what to say, he's right I should have called, I should have been there with all of them but instead I shut him out without ever telling him why. And now he hated me and I had no one to blame but myself.Complete
Lifeguard//G.D.
"I don't get why I can't just hang out with one of my friends!" I said, angrily and confused "I just don't have a good vibe from him okay!?" He yelled back "Why does it matter!!!" "I don't want to see you get hurt." Grayson started to quiet down with that sentence, but that didn't stop me from screaming at him. "But that's part of LIFE GRAYSON. IM GOING TO GET HURT AND I WILL LEARN FROM MY MISTAKES!" "Well maybe you should find someone who ISNT a mistake" "Why are you acting like this??" I asked him. He turned back towards me and looked me in my eyes. Throwing his arms up in the air, he yelled "Because I LIKE YOU." It was those words. Those four words hit me like a brick.Complete
