Requested by EllieMcCallister: sorry I changed your idea a little bit; I wasn't able to find something to go with the song, but I'm really glad you asked and if you want me to re-do it I totally will...sorry about the long wait

I sighed putting down the cup of coffee I had in my hands. Leaning back in my chair I gazed up at the night sky. I was sitting outside in my balcony, a bunch of papers and textbooks strewn upon the table in front of me. I could have been partying, going out, or just having fun, after all it was a Friday night, but I decided not to. My cumulative exam were long time from now but I still decided to spend the night studying. Well not really. My books were open and I had scanned them half heartedly, re-reading each sentence a few times before deciding that I wasn't going to remember it anyway. The only thing, or person really although he never considered himself as one, in my head.

Nico.

I shook my head to clear my thought. I would have to forget him. It had been at least 3 years since I had seen him and I would need to let go sooner or later.

But I couldn't. I highly doubt I ever could.

Going back inside my apartment, my foster family was gone to who knows where, and decidied to listen to some music. Slipping my iphone into the speakers, i hit shuffle then play.

Coming in unannounced, drag my nails on the tile

I just followed your scent, you can just follow my smile

All of your flaws are aligned with this mood of mine

Cutting me to the bone, nothing left to leave behind

I walked around oblivious to my surroundings letting the music wash over me as I sang along. The door creaked open and someone walked in, but I didn't notice after all I wasn't expecting anyone at this time.

You ought to keep me concealed just like I was a weapon

I didn't come for a fight but I will fight till the end

And this one might be a battle, might not turn out okay

You know you look so Seattle but you feel so LA

And I love the way you hurt me

It's irresistible, yeah

I love the way, I love the way

Another voice joined in with mine. I found it so angelic and captivating that I didn't realize somebody had picked the lock to my door and found his way in. I didn't turn around. Instead I just closed my eyes and hummed along.

I love the way you hurt me, baby

I love the way, I love the way

I love the way you hurt me, baby

Oh Gods, I loved that voice. It sounded so familiar too...

I'm gonna get you to burst just like you were a bubble

Frame me up on your wall just to keep me out of trouble

Like a moth getting trapped in the light by fixation

Truly free, love it baby, I'm talking no inflation

Too many war wounds and not enough wars

Too few rounds in the ring and not enough settled scores

Too many sharks, not enough blood in the waves

You know I give my love a f-f-four letter na-na-name

And I love the way you hurt me

It's irresistible, yeah

I love the way, I love the way

I love the way you hurt me, baby

I love the way, I love the way

I love the way you hurt me, baby

You're second hand smoke, second hand smoke

I breathe you in, but, honey, I don't know what you're doing to me

Mon chérie, but the truth catches up with us eventually

Try to say live, live and let live

But I'm no good, good at lip service

Except when they're yours, mi amore

I'm coming for you and I'm making war

NICO! The realization was so sudden I think I had just frozen from shock. Right behind me was that boy I hadn't seen for 3 years. The boy I had fell for.

And I still love the way you hurt me

It's irresistible, yeah

I love the way, I love the way

I love the way you hurt me, baby

I love the way, I love the way

I love the way you hurt me, baby

The song ended and I still hadn't turned around. Nico still hadn't said anything, but I could tell he wanted to.

"I missed you," I said.

"I know," he replied. But that voice...oh gods I would fall for him again and again with every word he spoke.

The song started playing again as I ran up to him and gave him a bone crushing hug. Probably the most physical contact we've ever had.

He tilted up my chin as I blushed at our closeness. A light pink had started to show on his cheeks as well but I never got a chance to really check because he had leaned in and kissed me.

"I love you," he said, with his angelic voice.

"I know,"
