Writing Exercise

Prompt: the silence by mayday parade with your NOtp

Pairing: GrayLu

Type: AU

Time limit: 14 hours

A/N: Mmkay so this isn't my best story. I've never written a song fic so I don't exactly know the formatting for them. I apologize.

I also apologize for the crappy writing.

I have two small children in my house this week because VBS is going on so I've had to help take care of them. Our air conditioner also went out and we had to get a whole new one so we had them in our house for about four days. And to top it all off my dog got away and we still haven't found her so I haven't really been in the mood to write. So I'm really sorry about the shitty writing~

The song is The Silence by Mayday Parade

Torn in two she lies awake

The moon lights up the room like day

Another night she spends alone

Without his touch her skin so cold

Lucy lay sideways in her bed looking absently at the room. A tear slid out of her eyes and down her face. She didn't want to believe it. She pulled to cover up more around her trying to feel anything but all she felt was the cold.

The blood that's running through her veins

With every beat there's no escape

Lost in everything she trusts

Still can't seem to get enough

Even though the world she loved

It won't ever be the way it was

And his heart of stone left her's breaking.

Why did he have to do this to her?

She felt her heart beating but she didn't want it to. She didn't want to be like this. The man had taken her trust and her heart and torn both into pieces.

Gray, whom she liked ever since she saw him at the guild. Gray, who she was so happy to be on the same team with. Gray who made her so happy when he asked her to go out with him. Gray who told her he loved her.

Gray who wasn't here anymore. Gray who up and left. Gray who said it was over.

Memories they take her back

Every moment fades to black

Every kiss and every taste

She wishes time would ease the pain

She didn't want to think about him. Not after what he'd done to her. But she couldn't help thinking back on the past. All the missions they took together. All their dates. The more intimate moments here in this room.

The clock on the wall sat ticking. She wished that with each tick she'd feel a little bit better. But she didn't.

Even though the world she loved

It won't ever be the way it was

And her heart is weak her hands are shaking

She doesn't know how she'll face him at the guild. She doesn't want to see him. But she does. But she doesn't. Everything would be the same but oh so different.

Every night she cries

And dies a little more each time

Say you love me

Nothing left inside

Say you love me

And the silence will set her free

She heard the front door open and instantly she knew who it was. He did know where the spare key was.

She watched him walk into the bedroom and grab his things without a word. She sat up and rubbed the tears off her cheek.

"Don't you love me?" She asked.

And every night she cries

I don't know if I'll ever make this right

Cause I am just so broken by the bitterness of loneliness

And I'm so scared of this

I don't know if I'll ever make this right

Cause I am just so broken by the bitterness of loneliness

And I'm so scared

She didn't want to be alone in this world. She wanted to reach out and grab him and pull him close. But she knew he'd only pull away. She could feel a sob rise in her throat but she choked it down. However, couldn't stop the tears.

If he didn't love her...

If he never loved her...

How was she supposed to trust anyone else.

She pulled her covers closer waiting for his answer and hoping he wouldn't lie.

She was so afraid.

Even though the world she loved

It won't ever be the way it was

And his heart of stone left her's breaking

Every night she cries

And dies a little more each time

Say you love me

Nothing left inside

Say you love me

And the silence will set her free

He didn't say anything but gathered his bag and started to the door.

"You said you loved me." She said weaker this time. He paused.

"Gray." She prompts. "Say you love me."

He turns and looks her over once and then turns back and walks out the door.

He doesn't love her.

Chances are he never did.

She took a deep breath and let it out.

"Okay."

Every night she cries

And the silence will set her free
