James McVey

Undercover

You didn't know why you were lying under the bed you shared with your boyfriend, honestly. You just did. Okay, that was a lie. You did know why. You were in the middle of a hide and seek game, James just didn't know that. Buuuut he'd find out sooner or later, seeing as it wasn't the first time you'd done this.

As you heard the front door open and closed, you had to contain your laugh. From where you were lying you could see the bedroom door, and were just able to see his face, when the door swung open. In walked a very grinning James, smile from ear to ear. The first place he looked where your wardrobe, seeing as that were your favourite hiding spot. When he hadn't found you he came back out, looking confused as ever.

Llama, lie down.

It was a cold, rainy autumn day, and for no apparent reason you found yourself in the middle of a mini zoo with Connor Ball, your boyfriend of a year. He had insisted that, on this given rainy day, you went to the zoo. You were extremely against the idea, never really a fan of rain, but you settled on a compromise. You would go to the mini zoo, just an hour away from town, he would get to see animals, and you wouldn't get a cold from being out in the rain for far too long. Promblem solved.

The ride there had been fun, you had danced around in your seat, to the beat of the music playing from the radio. Connor, on the other hand, had been preoccupied by not driving off the road, seeing as it was raining quite hard, but he had spared quite a few glances your way, with an amused look on his face.

Upon arrivel, you too were actually quite excited to see the animals, especially the llamas. Llamas amused you, for some reason, that Connor could not gather. You didn't even know why. So it didn't surprise him, when you ran straight in the direction, that the map showed towards the llamas. Connor followed you, although he really wanted to go see the reptiles.

Lonely – Benny Tipene

James:

So don't you cry your eyes on me, cause I'm the one that bleeds.

You had never hidden anything from James, so when you found out what he had been hiding from you, you were devastated. You knew he did it because he was scared, but it still hurt. What you didn't know, was how much it had hurt him too. He wanted nothing more than to trust you, but who could really blame him for not? He never really knew what people was in it for. You did everything in your power to show him, show him that you were in it because you loved him. You loved him more than you ever thought possible. The day he finally told you, the both of you started crying, even though he's the one who bleeds.

Connor:

This will end and I can start to find comfort in my lonely heart.

Since you had broken up, Connor had been a lonely heart, the only cure was you. And you were long gone. You had moved on fairly quickly, or so he thought. He always told his friends that this would soon end, and he would end up finding comfort in his broken and lonely heart, instead of only sadness and pain. Nobody really believed him, until he, too, started to move on. That happened the day he met her. To him, she was an angel sent from above. To you, she was the final end on your relationship. You had never truly moved on. But he had fallen in love with someone else, who had taken the place in his no more lonely heart.

Tristan:

Keep sleep walking through the days, as time slips away.

The days had slowly turned into a routine for you two. You'd get up, eat a silent breakfast, go to work, come home late, and watch tv until you went to bed. Part of you despised this, though it also felt safe. But the constant wall between the two of you made you lonely. Things haven't been the same since that one fatal day. Neither of you spoke of it, but it drained the colour from your relationship. On this very night, the two of you were for once talking, if you could call it that. More like screaming. All the pent up frustration were showing. In the end you made a mutual decision, this relationship was over. You quickly packed a bag, and went to a friends to stay for the time being. Time had slipped away from the two of you, in the sleep like pattern the two of you had gotten used to.

Bradley:

The tide has changed, and we're washed up far from home.

'Sad Song'

It was a cold evening. Her boots clonked as her feet hit the pavement. She cuddled closer in her jacket, as she speedwalked down the street. She reached the outskirts of her destination, a small park, located in the middle of the little town she called home. She often went here, mostly when she was sad or lonely. As of right now, she was both. She missed a certain someone. She missed his curls. His brown eyes. His hypnoticing laugh. She missed him. Bradley was his name. Or Brad for short. He was her first real boyfriend. They had broken up a few months ago, due to his hectic schedule, and the constant fights everything about his lifestyle brought on. Bradley is in a band. They're quite big. This also meant she had to deal with the judging words from strangers. And that, she couldn't deal with that.

As she walked towards the swingset, 'Sad Song' by We The Kings playing though her headphones, she thought about were he was now. If he missed her, as much as she missed him. She didn't actually know exactly where he was at this given moment. She had stayed away from anything that made her miss him any more than she already did. She stayed away from anything that gave her hope. Hope that they might have a chance of meeting. Of getting back together.

When she neared the swingset, she could see another person sitting on the right swing. A head full of curls she knew all too well. He was looking straight at her. She quickly stopped, turned around when he got up from the swing. She walked towards the lake in a rush. She couldn't bear to talk to him. Not now. She wasn't ready.

(A/N) So, I thought this turned out quite alright, and yes, I have got severe James feels, aaaand, I might have had Another World on repeat, which made this kinda sad.. So enjoy :)

Missing him

Pain is only relevant if it still hurts. That's what my tattoo says. And it's true in so many ways. See, per example, the pain of losing him. James McVey. In the end, all the pressure, and peoples talk became too much for the both of us, and we decided it was best to part ways. Or HE decided, and I did agree, but if you love someone, you just want them to be happy, right? At least I told myself that, that was why I agreed at the time. And look at me now.. I'm miserable without him. But nobody knows that. No one. Sometimes I wonder how he really is. He seems to be doing just fine without me, but I also know him well enough to see behind the front.

Calum:

You don't gotta wait no longer, you don't gotta be so shy.

Looking over at her, his smiled so bright that his eyes crinkled at the sides. To him she was the most beautiful creature on this planet. He adored her. One warm spring day the two of them were sitting in the sun, just talking and laughing. Both suddenly turned quiet, just silently looking at the other. That is, until she shyly looked away, blushing a pinkish colour. He almost reached out to touch her cheek. He even lifted up his hand, until he realised what he was doing. Deep down they both knew that they were a lot more than just friends, but he was tired of waiting, she was too shy to say anything. She looked back at him, smiling shyly at him. This time he did reach out, putting a hand on her cheek. He looked into her eyes, smiling back at her. Leaning forward he left a soft peck on her lips, a little peck that left the both of them shocked. It wasn't long until the both broke into big grins, silently telling the other what they were thinking.

Ashton:

Just one kiss, then we both go with the flow.

One kiss. Two kisses. Three. That's how they had ended up where they we're right now. They were lying naked in his bed, his arm draped across her waist. The consequences of what they had done, was something they had both feared. Over time they had become close friends, best friends even. And were they really ready to give that up. To him it didn't really matter in that exact moment, but she was lying there, worried, that she's now lose him. Not only for what had just happened, but if they chose to be together.. Were she really ready to perhaps get her heart broken? She loved him dearly, more than she really thought possible, but how could she really be sure? He, sensing her uneasiness, pulled her closer, kissing her softly on the lips. One kiss. Two kisses. Three. And they were at again.

Luke:

I can tell by the way that you're rolling your eyes, you get a lot of attention, probably fed up with guys.

For Luke, it had been attraction from first glance. For her, it had been just another boy. You see, she was very self-critical, couldn't have a man look at her for 5 seconds without being insecure. So when this handsome stranger had been staring at her for the past 10 minutes, she finally gathered the courage to look him straight in the eyes. And then she melted. His eyes were like pools of blue. The most beautiful eyes she had ever seen. Not to mention the way he nervously looked the other way. For some reason, he became not just another boy to her. He was suddenly so much more.

Michael:

So if you could just imagine, what's going through my head.

Understand

When does someone truly understand another person? When they've given all their trust? When they show them things, that they'd never show anyone else? Perhaps, but also, when they'll show you sides, they don't show to others. When they're truly themselves. I believe this rarely happens, that someone is completely themselves. Watching. That's how you truly get to know people. Observing how they smile, at the things they love. How they throw their head back when they laugh. How quiet they go, when something's not right.

Perhaps that's what she did? Observed him. How he acted when he was alone. The way his beautiful eyes would shine, when he sat up there, doing what he does best. How he'd laugh a bit too loud at his own joke. Or how he would be so caring towards everyone. She loved every little things about him.

But there were also the things she didn't notice. Like, how his eyes would light up when he watched her. Equally as fascinated by her being, as she was of his. How she would scrunch up her nose, when she was confused. How her mouth would have a slight twitch, when she was nearly asleep. And how she would laugh a bit too loud at his jokes, just to make him smile. He loved those little things endlessly.

                                      Sofie and Ashton

                                                 Beautiful

Beautiful is how he looked at you. Although you didn't see your beauty, he did, and he made sure to remind you every day. He didn't feel like he could say it too much. He loved the way your eyes would light up when you looked at him. Or how you would smile at the ground every time he told you just how beautiful he thought you were. He adored how you would throw your head back while laughing, and how you got that teasing smile whenever he wanted you a bit too much. In general, he just adored you.

                                                                                                    Connor Ball

                                               Dearest Connor.

I hope everything is alright. I'm so sorry I never told you how I felt. The pain was too much, and I didn't want to worry you. I promise when I'm out of here I'll do everything to find you. If you don't want to see me, I understand, I wouldn't want to either. You see, I've got this problem.. It's called me.. I know I should have told you, but would you really understand? Would you understand why I cry when I look in the mirror? Would you understand why I can't get myself to eat? Would you understand why I hate myself with a burning passion? You probably wouldn't.. Heck, I don't even fully understand, and I'm living in this hell. I'm living with the demons inside my head. I'm living with the pain everyday. I wouldn't actually want you to fully understand, because that would mean you would know what it's like. To wake up everyday hoping you were dead. To starve 'till you'll finally feel beautiful. Sometimes I wonder if there really is a life after this, and even if I'll make it out alive. You see, everything is so dark? I know you've always said that you wanted to know what it was like in my brain, and then laughed when I said you shouldn't want to. I hope you understand why now. Don't blame yourself for this. It's not your fault. If anything it's my fault. I let it get this far out. Just know that I will always love you, and if I make it out alive, I hope you'll wait for me. I'm getting help, which is why I'm leaving you. Know that it's one of the hardest things I've ever done. Leaving you behind without anything but a letter. But if I don't make it, I don't want you to be sad. I want you to stay happy. I'm gonna go now, I love you. Stay strong, baby.

Brad wasn't your typical 'bad boy', with his curly locks and baby face. Mostly the baby face. Gwen loved his babyface. And his curly locks. But of course, he didn't know that. Hell, nobody did. She'd always had a thing for 'bad boys' and even though Brad not necessarily looked like one, he still fit under that category. For Gwen it had been an immediate attraction, from the first glance at him. She just had one problem. They'd never said a word to each other. If you asked Gwen, it should stay that way, but if you asked Brad? He was dying to talk to her. He, too, had a problem. He didn't know what to say.

One cold winter morning, all of that were to change. Gwen had gotten the on the wrong bus in the morning, and ended up coming 2 hours late. And of course, who else that Brad would be standing in front of the building. After contemplating whether or not to talk to him for about 15 minutes, she finally decided 'Why not?'. Shyly walking over, she stood next to him, just looking out at the parking lot. They ended up spending the entire day together, and making plans for the upcoming weekend.

(A/n: I apologize for the wait on this, I really hope you both like it. If not, just drop me a message, and we'll figure it out. Also, feedback will be greatly appreciated.)
