When life turns to be unfair

C h a p t e r 22: A musical day.

Trust is a hard thing to archive. People sometimes spend their whole life trying to win someone's trust, but sometimes, you can find someone that despite his chance of getting someone to trust them, they don't care and try their best to ruin it.

"I actually said yes... Please don't do anything to my mother. I didn't know...I thought that with saying yes I'll win her trust like you said..." Declan was trying his best to convince the man who's threatening him that his decision wasn't a bad one for both sides.

The other one took a deep breath before answering him, in his cold voice. "Excellent! Even though you acted without my permission, you gave me a new idea now. For now, you have nothing to do, but when I call you, be ready."

Declan let a relieved sigh and looked around him to be sure no one heard his conversation, then he remembered that he locked himself in the bathroom at Valencia's house.

He was about to speak again, but the man hung up.

He walked to the bathroom sink and washed his face and looked at himself.

What happened to me? How did I become the person I hate the most, a filthy liar and a coward?

Once he walked out, he went directly to Valencia's room. He heard a soft voice singing, along with a guitar song. He advanced and stopped next to the door.

If you see the boy I used to be, could you tell him that I'd like to find him

And if you see the shell that's left of me, could you spare him a little kindness
'Cus I've been high and I've been low, I've spent a thousand nights alone, tryna hold on tight

And feelings come but they won't go, please won't someone take me home before I lose my mind
Am I human?
Am I flawed?
Do I deserve a shred of worth or am I just another fake, fucked up lost cause?
And am I human?
Or am I something else?
'Cus I'm so scared and there's no one there to save me from the nightmare that I call mysel
I've tried everything and anything but nothing seems to work quite like it should
Between the madness and the apathy, seems there's nothing left inside of me that's good
'Cus I've been high and I've been low, I've spent a thousand nights alone, tryna hold on tight
And feelings come but they won't go, please won't someone take me home before I lose my mind

He felt the contractions on his heart while he listened to her sing a song that hurt both of them, that expresses both of their thoughts

He can't deny to himself that he likes her a lot, not as friends, since he was just a child and it's killing him to see himself unable to help her, and stabbing her on the back. She's just vulnerable now, and with his choices, he's putting her in more danger without her knowledge.

After she finished singing the song, the silence remained their company. He didn't know if he should get in right after she finished.

"You know, you're not a very discrete person when it comes to hiding behind a door. Get in, it's your turn to sing and play." She had the amused tone, what a change of humour.

He felt a little bit embarrassed and with his head low, he got in. It's getting harder every time he looks into her eyes, the eyes that look at him with a lot of faith that he will make her feel better and that he will be the saviour that makes everything good.

He kept his silence and took the guitar. Valencia faced him to watch him play. He always looks handsome while playing, at least that's what she remembers.

I shoulda known it wouldn't happen 'cus it wasn't right

I shoulda known it cus it happens every god damned time
Almost thought we coulda been something, almost thought we could have tried, but
Guess someone else is what you need to make you feel alright

But the other night I had you in my head, called you on the phone
Want you stealing my time even though I said I wanna be alone
Oh and I should know this could never work, oh, this could never end well
Know it's only human but I never learn, I want you for myself

I can take the fall: the pain, the pleasure
And you can take it all, for worse, or better
But oh, what if we're wrong? What if we're not all that we thought?
Then we won't make it long, but hey, I guess that's us

We couldn't help it but you know that doesn't make it right
You say I'm selfish but I know you felt the same inside
Everybody says it's all okay, everybody says we're fine but
Guess someone else is what you need to make you feel alright

But tomorrow night I'll probly call a cab, show up at your door
Love you in the night time, leave you in your bed, cold and wanting more
Oh and I should know this could never work, oh, this could never end well
Know it's only human, but I never learn, I need you for myself

I can take the fall: the pain, the pleasure
And you can take it all, for worse, or better
But oh, what if we're wrong? What if we're not all that we thought?
Then we won't make it long, but hey, I guess that's us

I can take the fall: the pain, the pleasure

And you can take it all, for worse, or betterBut oh, what if we're wrong? What if we're not all that we thought?Then we won't make it long, but hey, I guess that's love

The fact that he sang a song by Anson Seabra too made her smile at him. She used to love the guy's songs when she was away, and even with the appearance of new artists that were more popular, he remained one of her best. Declan's choice of song made her somehow feel safe. It felt like an indirect message that he will always be standing by her side.

Asta walked slowly to the house in front of her. She opened the door carefully and advanced to a bedroom.

She must be hiding something in here. She can't be that smart.

Second Song:

The songs up are Broken and That's Us by Anson Seabra (I took his permission to use the lyrics) his songs are so deep and beautiful! He's so underrated you should check him out. 

I'm sorry for the late update! Writer's block sucks, plus I don't have time with my personal life and studies, but I'm doing my best to write.

Excuse the mistakes so far *innocent look*

Please, guys give me your opinions on the story so far. ♥

Have a good day ♥
