This is a little story on an original character I made. Reviews are love and inspiring. I borrowed some storylines and quotes from songs/One Tree Hill/books/quotes from musicians. Addicted much? Hellyes.

You could cut the tension in the room with a knife. Literally. Slice it a couple times and watch it fall to ground or float away, whatever the hell it'd do.
The spoon stirred around the empty coffee cup, the scent still in the air, filling my nostrils with it's sweet, sweet smell. My eyes shifted upwards, until they meet his.
Locking.
His gaze was clouded. Sharp. Searching mine. I sucked air through my teeth inaudibly, watching my timid reflection through his eyes. The ticking of the clock was irritating, pressuring. Like I was being timed to say what I should before everything crumbled.
Which, to be honest, was true.
Sour candy endings
"It sucks to be the footnote in someone else's love story," his voice muttered icily, accusing.
"Oh, you're accusing me of cheating now?"
Coffee stained, but aware
"No. Come on, admit it, you're in love with him. You always have. Probably always will be, as much as it pains me to say it, because, Spencer, I love you. But, I guess you don't love me."
"Do you think this has been easy for me? You think I'm in love with someone else, and then in top of all that, my mother bailed on my family ten years ago and is now trying to come back in to my thirteen-year-old brother's life! And my father is hopeless, he doesn't know what to do about the situation. He still loves her after she slept with fifteen men during their marriage. And now, you're accusing me, you're acting like this is my fault, like I wanted our relationship to fall apart!"
Oh I'm so tangled up in my
Big sunglasses, I am
Bed hungry, second day fare
"How would I know? You never talk to me about it."
Tears welled in my angry, narrowed eyes. "You should know. You just should."
I stood up, making sure to knock over the coffee cup, and stalked out of his house. Slammed the door. Drove off.
Sobbed until every bone in my body ached.
No, we went under
The weight was too much to carry in
I felt the thunder
Mr. Don't Look So Scared
I never knew, I never knew
That I could be so sad
We went under

Riley.
I love him.
I do.
Even if he doesn't quite know.
Yet.
I wanna show him I do. But... we both guard our hearts. And we don't believe the truth when it comes to love. We just hide behind our porcelain masks.
I've been very cautious
Trying numbness instead of pain
Insecure.
Alone.
Scared.
Your humour makes me
Makes me nauseous
What a twisted, twisted, twisted game
We just wait for the other to believe.
Or for the other shoe to drop.

What do you think? Shoot me a message or a review! Song is "Sour Candy" by Carly Rae Jepsen feat. Josh Ramsay of Marianas Trench; not the full song though. I know, it's short, but I can promise you it'll be longer next chapter, if I continue on.
