You've got a lot to say for the one that walked away
I give, you take, it's the way it's always been
Well how do I know if I should stay or just go?
The bottom line is this way that, I'll never know

"It's easy for you to say, you're not the one that had to walk away!" Toralei screamed at her. "You took everything from me that I gave and more, yet you never give back."

"That's how it always will be." Spectra spoke, her eyes tearing up "And I'm sorry. Sorry that I let you walk away."

"There you go again. I'm not sure whether to stay or go! You beg and steal and lie then you say stuff like that and melt my heart."

Spectra said nothing, staring into her lover's- ex-lover; she had to remember- endless green eyes.

"Well, guess I'll never know the answer then." she stalked away, leaving Spectra to slowly disappear in the light.

You've got a lot to say for the one that pushed me away
I give, you take, some things they never change
Just change

"Here we go again!" groaned Toralei as Spectra approached her.

"You keep pushing me away! If you want me back let me at least try!" Spectra yelled, for one of the first times truly angry with Toralei. She couldn't help it. "I'm trying to give something for once, just take it! Then maybe things would change; things never change and that's the problem."

"Change? An excellent idea. Just change. Then I'll think about it." said Toralei, once again walking away.

Spectra almost didn't let her this time. Well, it was progress.

Know, know that I can be this way
Know, know that I can walk away
These things take time to grow
It's been said that time heals wounds
But no, I won't be controlled
And so the story goes

"I can change, Toralei. I can be the monster you want me to be, and I want to be." Spectra pleaded, tears of mascara and rain dripping down her face. They weren't real tears. Not most of them.

Toralei stayed silent this time, trying not to cry. She didn't cry.

"When I first met you, I thought I hated your guts. I guess it took time to get to know you well enough to trust you. And, it takes time to heal wounds. Over 150 years of mine were healed by you the night you told me you loved me. I'm not asking for you to obey me- I'm asking you for your choice." Spectra managed to say, then she wiped her tears, leaving panda smudges round her eyes.

Toralei moved closer to Spectra, and released the giant breath she realised she'd been holding the entire time.

Stay with me
Stay with me
Know, know that I can be this way
Know, know that I can walk away

"I can be that way." Spectra said one more time shakily.

"And I could walk away." Toralei breathed out. Before Spectra could say anything else Toralei kissed her softly, promising nothing like this ever again, spreading joy through Spectra's body.

The kiss ended, their foreheads touching.

"Stay with me." Toralei whispered.

Spectra's lips crashed onto Toralei's. The choice had been made and it was the right one.

They were where they belonged.

Cheesiness and rock music do not go well together xD
