As Long As You Love Me
"As long as you love me"
He was the very epitome of perfect. From his carefully cut bloody red bangs, to his sharp, ruby eyes that stared into my soul. He was the school idol and president, always smiling. When I waved, he waved back. If I greeted him in the morning, he would do the same. Nothing more. Nothing less. Even though I knew of his twisted persona underneath the fake smile, I loved him regardless. I wouldn't give up on him for anyone, or anything. Without him, the world would be boring.
"We could be starving, we could be homeless, we could be broke"
When you confessed to me, I was so happy I could have died. Without thinking twice, I agreed, and that started it all. From that day on, you would appear before my house, exactly at 8am, and walked me to school. You would eat lunch with me every day on the roof top, even though we both knew you had a full-course set up for you in the student council room. You always had your eyes on me when we were together, causing me to blush uncontrollably. I thought this was all too good to be true. I was right.
"As long as you love me"
I wasn't meant to see it. I had forgotten my textbook at the student council room, and went back to get it. Walking in, I saw you lying down, half naked, with a green- haired male riding you. I stood there in horror, before quickly grabbing my textbook and running away. You called out my name, with such a sad tone, but I was too shocked to turn back. I holed myself in my room after that. You sent me text after text saying that you were sorry, but you never tried calling me. I should have known that you were playing with me. But I still think you're perfect. Even though you're a sick, lying, cruel cheat, you're still perfect in my eyes. And you always will be.
"I'll be your platinum, I'll be your silver, I'll be your gold"
After a few days, I finally decided to go back to school. To you. You no longer came to walk me to school. When I saw you in the morning, you greeted me as usual, as if nothing happened. Nothing changed. You still came to eat lunch with me on the roof top. You still kept staring at me. But they were all void of love. You pretend to love me like always, but we both know you don't. It saddens me that you cheat on me with another after school. But I'm fine with it. As long as I'm something to you, then I'm happy. Because in my eyes, you are still perfect. I look up and see you walking towards me, about to greet me. I put on my best smile as you open your mouth.
"Good morning Tetsuya."
