AN. Wow. It's been awhile since I have posted anything. But, you don't care so I'll get on with this.
This is a one-shot that kind of flew into my head when I was listening to some songs on my computer. When I thought of it, I wasn't sure if I would ever write it because, well its a Creddie *gasp*. And we all know how much I am against Creddie and am an avid Seddie shipper. Well this story is more of a post-Creddie. :)
Anyway, its in Freddie's POV and the italicized words are song lyrics. The song is 'Since You've Been Gone' by Kelly Clarkson. So some of the lyrics are a bit jumbled, but I had to jumble them to relate it with the story. And I don't even really like songfics all that well, but I had to write this. :\
Now this is quite a bit different than my usual style, I think. I'm not even sure I have a style or what it is. Anyway, I'm not very sure of this, I think it kind of sucks. And I wrote it in about 15 minutes. Enough rambling, sorry. Enjoy.
Disclaimer: We all know that even my Graduation money is not enough to own iCarly. Maybe if I'm good, Santa will give it to me in December. I also do not own the song. :)
Its been a few months. I still think about you. About us.
But now when I think about us, what we could have been and what we were, I find myself thinking about that song you used to love. The one you sung over and over again until the word became ingrained in my head.
Here's the thing we started off friends
It was cool but it was all pretend
Our friendship was fun. Awkward at times, but there were always good memories to be had.
And all you'd ever hear me say
Is how I pictured me with you
I loved you then. I told you all the time. You always told me that we were better off as friends.
I told you that you were wrong. I knew we were meant to be.
In high school things changed. We matured. And just when I thought I might be getting over you.
Moving on to other girls, you changed. You wanted to take a chance. You finally said yes.
Wasn't long till I called you mine
It was everything I thought it would be and more. We were together and I thought it couldn't get better.
You changed. Again.
You became cold and distant.
How come I never hear you say
I just wanna be with you
I guess you never felt that way
You took me for granted. Even before. You would use your super sweet voice and innocent face to bend me to your every whim.
Every time I pulled away, it always reeled me in.
How can I put it?
you put me on
I even fell for that stupid love song
You cheated. And I caught you. At first I was devastated. Broken. Then everything became clear.
Since you've been gone
I can breathe for the first time
I'm so movin' on
I left. I'm done being used by you. I am no longer a piece of clothing that you can toss in the back of the closet then choose wear to the next party.
I'm done. You can beg and plead. Although, crying isn't very becoming of you.
I won't take you back.
You had your chance you blew it
Out of sight, out of mind
Shut your mouth I just can't take it
They say hindsight is 20/20. And they couldn't be more right.
Thanks to you
Now I get
You should know
That I get
I get what I want
Since you've been gone
AN. Ugh. I blame the weird spacing on this website. It was okay until I uploaded it, but what can you do?
Anyway, review and tell me what you thought. Be ruthless, as long as the criticism is intelligent. If you just say "u suk. i hat tis" I might find a way to slap you through the computer. M'kay?
So lovely people, leave a review and have a great weekend.
