A/N: So, this is a birthday present for the awesome, sweet, lovable, Missy. Happy birthday, girlie! I couldn't write a proper oneshot, and I'm sure that this sucks, but I decided to split it into two parts. Hope you don't me borrowing your idea, hon.

The song that inspired this is called "Second Go", by LIGHTS.

Part 2 will be up shortly!


"Second Go"

"Matt, wait!" Missy yelled, running frantically in an attempt to stop her boyfriend before he walked out again—this time for good.

The North Carolinian stopped dead in his tracks and turned around, a sigh escaping his lips.

"What is it?"

The petite woman reached out and took her boyfriend's hand in her own, squeezing it tightly.

"Look, I'm sorry," Missy apologized, as she ran a hand through her hair. "I shouldn't have yelled at you like that. You didn't deserve it."

Matt simply shrugged.

"I know you've been going through a rough time lately," he said, "but you need to know that I'm not going anywhere. I love you, Melissa." A smile touched his lips. "You're stuck with me for life, whether you like it or not." He gently ruffled his hair. "There's no getting rid of me now."

Missy blushed.

"I just..I don't see how you can love me, after all I've put you through. I'm horrible and you deserve better."

How come you love me when I am ugly?

"Shhh," Matt whispered, placing a finger on his girlfriend's lips. "You're not horrible. We all have our bad days. Hell, I'm not always perfect either, and you still love me. That's what true love is, Missy. You accept the one you love, flaws and all." He smiled. "So I don't want to hear anymore of this talk about how you're horrible. I love you."

You saw me at my worst

You caught me falling first

"Thank you," the woman whispered as she wrapped her arms around Matt's neck, pulling him closer for a sweet, chaste kiss.


I hope you liked, Missy :)
