SongFic for Nickleback with Layla and Will Sky High
Someday
How the hell did we wind up like this?
Will couldn't understand why Layla was leaving him. He was a Superhero with his parents and that meant he couldn't always be there for her. But when they had married he had pictured them Happy and in Love. Not Layla with a suitcase. Crying into his favourite shirt that he had just worn the day before.
Why weren't we able
To see the signs that we missed
And try to turn the tables
I'd wished you unclenched your fists
And unpack your suitcase
Lately there's been to much of this
The fighting and the crying. Too much. Will never wanted this. But Layla was there crying. And walking to the car. He tried for her to hear him but she wasn't paying attention.
Nothin's wrong Someday, somehow
just as long as
you know that someday I will
gonna make it all right but not right now
I know you're wondering when
(You're the only one who knows that)
Someday, somehow
gonna make it all right but not right now
I know you're wondering when
Well i hoped that since we're here anyway
We could end up saying
Things we've always needed to say
So we could end up stringing
Now the story's played out like this
Just like a paperback novel
Lets rewrite an ending that fits
Instead of a Hollywood horror
Layla was in the car. Will jumped in front of it and begged for her to get out and come to him. He loved her more than the world and he just wanted for all this to end. She started to cry again. She had never been this upset. What did he do? He started to bang on the windows and yelled at her to look at him. Nothin's wrong
just as long as
you know that someday I will
The ignition of the car sounded and Layla pulled away from him. Why was she so upset and why didn't she seem to acknowledge he was there talking to her. He ran after her. He desperately tried to keep up with the car.

She adjusted the mirror. He couldn't believe she didn't see him running after her. He begged and pleaded that she would stop the car and run into his arms so that he could comfort her and tell her that he would never leave her. Layla didn't seem to realise that he was running after her. So he turned to go get something to spark her attention. How the hell did we wind up like this

He just ran and ran trying to keep up with her car. That's until he noticed she had gone through a red light. He could see the scene that was about to unfold in front of him. The truck came so fast into the driver's side of the car there was no way she could of survived that. He screamed her name and ran to the scene hoping that with an extreme amount of luck she was alive. She had to be alive.

The shock took over him. And he just hung at the back of the crowd watching as the truck driver came out and ran towards the car. People just crowded the scene and tried everything the could to get to her.

But then Layla was there. Walking towards him with not a scratch on her face. Will didn't believe it. She was alive. And that's all that mattered right now. He walked up behind her and put his arms around her and just smelt her hair. He savoured the feeling that she was alive. Not caring that anyone seemed to notice them.
Someday, somehow
gonna make it all right but not right now
I know you're wondering when
She was no longer in his grasp anymore she was walking away from him. Will felt himself disappear and it made sense. Layla was in an Ambulance stretcher being loaded into the car. It drove off and Will watched it disappear in the traffic.

The last thing will noticed was Today's newspaper. On the front page a picture of himself in his costume was there. The title of the article was 'Local Hero dies in Tragic Bridge Accident'.
