A/N: This is my first songfic. I know the line "I can't get no rest" is grammatically uncorrect, but since Mika sings it that way, I decided to include it :)
I hope you enjoy it.
No Happy Ending
I glance at my watch. Two o'clock in the morning. Sighing, I turn over and attempt to finally fall asleep, but something's on my mind; images appear behind my closed eyes, preventing me from sleeping. Vivid brown curls, a gentle smile, flashing hazel eyes. I sit up, pushing my red bangs out of my face, knowing I won't be able to fall asleep, at least not anymore. Our last conversation plays over and over in my head. The words she screamed still sting, her accusations hit me like a punch in the gut, and I gasp. I can't stay in bed any longer. Feeling lost, I walk over to the kitchen and put the kettle on, but even hot tea can't calm me. I can't get no rest, so I keep walking around, looking at pictures in my apartment. Pictures of us, fragments of our former life, a life before she left. Our wedding – Hermione, dressed in white, and I, surrounded by my older brothers, smile warmly into the camera, drunk with happiness. For a second, I pretend that nothing ever went wrong, that she's still in our bedroom, peacefully sleeping, and that I can crawl back into bed with her. I can think that we just carried on, and that tomorrow will be a good day.
But it's not. The realisation of that nearly causes me to fall to pieces.
I feel as if I'm wasted, my head pounding. And I wasted everyday that we'd been together with work, or stupid fights, instead of relishing in her presence; her hot, fiery kisses, her loving smiles. This was the way that we loved, like it was forever.
But now happy endings are gone forever more. No hope, or love, or glory.
I draw in a deep breath, struggling to figure out how to say goodbye to someone I can't live without, trying to find solace in the thought that we'll live the rest of our lives, just not together.
