Song: Stay by Sugarland
I looked over at the table everyone was sitting at. All of my friends, drinking and laughing. Harry, Ginny, Neville, Luna, Fred, George, Ron... and her. I shook my head and looked back down at the song list. As I scanned it, the perfect song jumped out at me. I wrote my name and the song on the slip of paper and handed it to the DJ. He smiled and I made my way back to the table. It seemed crazy to be at a muggle karaoke bar with this group of people but ever since I first brought them to one we've made it a weekly tradition. After a couple of minutes, and some truly horiffic songs, I heard my name called over the speakers. I smiled at the group of people and made my way to the front.
"This song is for a certain someone. He will know who it is." I looked straight into Ron's eyes as the music started.
"I've been sitting here staring at the clock on the wall
And I've been laying here praying, praying she won't call
It's just another call from home
And you'll get it and be gone and I'll be crying
And I'll be begging you, baby, beg you not to leave
But I'll be left here waiting with my heart on my sleeve
Oh, for the next time we'll be here
Seems like a million years and I think I'm dying
What do I have to do to make you see she can't love you like me?
Why don't you stay? I'm down on my knees
I'm so tired of being lonely, don't I give you what you need?
When she calls you to go, there is one thing you should know
We don't have to live this way, baby, why don't you stay? Yeah
You keep telling me, baby there will come a time
When you will leave her arms and forever be in mine
But I don't think that's the truth
And I don't like being used and I'm tired of waiting
It's too much pain to have to bear to love a man you have to share
Why don't you stay? I'm down on my knees
I'm so tired of being lonely, don't I give you what you need?
When she calls you to go, there is one thing you should know
We don't have to live this way, baby, why don't you stay?
I can't take it any longer but my will is getting stronger
And I think I know just what I have to do
I can't waste another minute after all that I've put in it
I've given you my best, why does she get the best of you?
So next time you find you wanna leave her bed for mine
Why don't you stay? I'm up off my knees
I'm so tired of being lonely, you can't give me what I need
When she begs you not to go, there is one thing you should know
I don't have to live this way, baby, why don't you stay? Yeah, oh...
Thank you." I put down the mic and headed over to my friends. Ron looked like a fish with his mouth hanging open and eyes bulging out. Lavender looked confused. Everyone else was smiling. As I arrived at the table, Fred and George put their arms around me and hugged me, knowing that I needed it. I had just broken off the relationship I had been in for 6 years. Unhealthy though it was, I still had loved him.
Fred leaned down and whispered in my ear, "You wanna head out, love?" I nodded. The twins nodded to our friends, said goodnight, then grabbed each of my hands and we apparated away. The minute we landed in their flat the tears began. Without saying a word George picked me up and carried me to the bedroom, Fred following. He layed me down on the bed and crawled in next to me. Fred did the same on the other side. As I sobbed they each held on to me, silently letting me know they were there. After a few minutes I finally stopped. Fred leaned over and gave me a kiss on the head.
"Feel better?" I nodded. Then I looked up at him and kissed him. Turning to the other side I did the same to George.
"Thank you. I needed that one last time." They both smiled at me. Smiling back, I snuggled down between them again. The three of us fell asleep in the arms of the ones we loved.
