➝ I[size=7pt]’m broken, do you hear
me?
I’m blinded, ‘cause you are everything I see,
I’m dancin’ alone, I’m praying,
That your heart will just turn around,

And as I walk up to your door,
My head turns to face the floor,
‘Cause I can’t look you in the eyes and say,

When he opens his arms and holds you close tonight,
It just won’t feel right,
‘Cause I can love you more than this, yeah,
When he lays you down,
I might just die inside,
It just don’t feel right,
‘Cause I can love you more than this,
Can love you more than this

If I’m louder, would you see me?
Would you lay down
In my arms and rescue me?
‘Cause we are the same
You save me,
When you leave it’s gone again,

And when I see you on the street,
In his arms, I get weak,
My body fails, I’m on my knees,
Prayin’,[/size]

[size=7pt]The sun is bright on another Doncaster day, which is something I've been waiting for. My green eyes are covered by a pair of dark shades, due to the strange weather. Everything seems to be going perfect.... something I'm not used to. I pull my wispy brown hair into a tight ponytail, pushing my side bangs behind my ears. I fold my legs neatly, perched on a swing on my deck. It was nice to be living alone, away from my family, where I can be independent. My phone is in my hands, a small bag of chips next to me. I smile as my friend, Devon, texts me. -Juli! I miss you girlie :c-. I let out a laugh at the text, rolling my eyes. Devon was always like this to me. She treats me like a little kid, because I've had a bad couple of years. Mostly relationship wise. I still remember the day Louis auditioned for the X Factor, and he told me 'you're one in a million, Juli. I'll never forget you.' I wasn't surprised when Louis stopped texting and calling me, or talking to me in general. He already has two girlfriends since being in the music industry, but he's single now. But I'm over it. I think. I lift my sunglasses up, perching them on my head. Just as I'm about to text Devon back, I hear a familiar voice ring in my ears. "Juli?"

ooc: } basically, louis comes back to visit his hometown. he wants to talk to juli first, his ex. he wants to apologize to her, but she already has a special someone in her life. they aren't dating, but he's someone juli likes. louis regrets his mistakes, and he tries to patch up his relationship with juli.[/size]

[size=7pt]When he opens his arms and holds you close tonight,
It just won’t feel right,
‘Cause I can love you more than this, yeah,
When he lays you down,
I might just die inside,
It just don’t feel right,
‘Cause I can love you more than this, yeah,

I’ve never had the words to say,
But now I’m askin’ you to stay
For a little while inside my arms,
And as you close your eyes tonight,
I pray that you will see the light,
That’s shining from the stars above,

When he opens his arms and holds you close tonight,
It just won’t feel right,
‘Cause I can love you more than this,
‘Cause I can love you more than this, yeah

When he lays you down,
I might just die inside,
It just don’t feel right,
‘Cause I can love you more than this, yeah,

When he opens his arms and holds you close tonight,
It just won’t feel right,
‘Cause I can love you more than this, yeah

When he lays you down,
I might just die inside,
It just don’t feel right,
‘Cause I can love you more than this,
Can love you more than this[/size]

[size=7pt]sure :3[/size]

[size=7pt]I look up to see the familiar Doncaster boy in front of me, a smile on his face. I don't know how to react. I don't love him anymore, but we can still be friends, right? I tilt my head, looking at the familiar boy. I let out a soft chuckle, giving him the smile I always gave him. "Haven't seen you in a while, Lou." I stand up, pulling my baggy shirt down. I open my arms, giving him a friendly hug. I don't really care if he shattered my heart into a million pieces. I'm over that now. I think. I already have someone that I like, but we're taking it slow, of course. I sit back down on the bench, patting the empty spot next to me. "Sit."[/size]

[size=7pt]I cross my legs, stifling a laugh. I can tell that Louis is nervous, but I decide not to point it out. "I'm doing good. And you?"I tilt my head, waiting for his answer. I scan his expression, watching him slightly shift. He's nervous alright. I reach over, grabbing the beanie off his head. I pull it on mine, sticking my tongue out. I laugh, glancing down at my hands. I was a joker just like Louis when we were together, and I would do this all the time. [/size]

[size=7pt]I roll my eyes as Louis pretends to cry, his head in his hands. I pick up my sunglasses, pushing his chin up so I can see his face. I push the sunglasses over his eyes, leaning back to examine him. "Perfect." I give him a thumbs up, along with a natural laugh. I slowly take the beanie off my head, handing it back to Louis. "So, you visiting your family?"[/size]

[size=7pt]I stifle a laugh as a funny expression pulls onto his face, a giant grin visible. I quickly pull a funny face, laughing at myself. I soon calm down, leaving me with Louis. "So, does the swag master from Doncaster have a special someone?" I lift an eyebrow, playfully poking his shoulder. I know Louis hates admitting these things, but I love to tease him. I wait for his answer, pulling my sunglasses off my face. I put the sunglasses on my face, making a peace sign with my fingers.[/size]

[size=7pt]I roll my eyes, giving him an understanding look. "We all know I can be like that." I flip my hair in a sassy way, making me laugh. I take my sunglasses off, revealing my bright emerald eyes. I glance down at my phone when I see another text, from Nathan. We were close, and we both obviously like each other. I smile at the text, taking my phone off the bench. I quickly text Nathan back before looking back up at Louis. "Sorry about that. I just needed to tell Nath something."[/size]

[size=7pt]"He's just a nice lad I met a month ago." I don't sense any happiness from Louis, which makes me slightly worried. Isn't Louis happy for me? It's hard for me to find someone I like. When Louis shattered my heart, I was ready to move on. Wasn't he? I look up at Louis, giving him a smile. I can't really tell what he's thinking about. He's probably happy that I moved on, and that I don't want him now. I pick up my phone, slipping it into my pocket. I bite my lip, hearing a silence approach. [/size]

[size=7pt]"Bye, Lou." I give him a smile, watching him go on his way. Louis is definitely hiding something from me. He seems a bit disappointed, but I brush it off. As I'm about to enter my house, I smile when Nathan walks up my porch. I walk over to him, slipping my phone out my back pocket. I laugh as he cracks a few jokes, being the person he is. I can spot Louis out the corner of my eye, but I ignore him. I watch as Nathan grabs my phone, lifting his arm in the air so I can't get it. I roll my eyes, standing on my toes in effort to grab my phone.[/size]

[size=7pt]I finally grab my phone from Nathan's grasp, pulling it away from him. "Thank you very much." I laugh, slipping my phone in my back pocket. I end up talking to Nathan for about thirty minutes before he leaves, apparently going to the airport to fly to his grandma's. I smile as he starts down the street, towards his house. I sit down on the bench, taking my sunglasses off my forehead. I slide them over my eyes, making my way down to the sidewalk. I start walking down the street for a little walk. I smile when I pass by Louis' house, imagining the little kids greeting him.[/size]
