Shed a tear 'cause I'm missing you
I'm still alright to smile
Girl, I think about you every day now
Was a time when I wasn't sure
But you set my mind at ease
There is no doubt
You're in my heart now
Said, woman, take it slow
It'll work itself out fine
All we need is just a little patience
Said, sugar, make it slow
And we come together fine
All we need is just a little patience
(patience)
Mm, yeah
"Matt, I'm sorry but I can't. I do want to be with you but it's still too soon," she cried, tears slipping down her cheeks. She didn't want to hurt him, her best friend but she wasn't ready to have a relationship again. True to the fact, she did love him more than a friend but she didn't want to get into anything right then. Now she really felt guilty. Not only had she fallen for her dead boyfriend's brother but she had now rejected him.
"When will you be ready, Ames? I'm willing to wait forever," he asked, his eyes also watering. Everyone had already left so they were left alone outside the restaurant. Amy sat on the bench and hugged herself it was so cold. Matt kneeled in front of her and gently forced her to look at him. "I love you, Amy. Tell me when you're ready and I'll be there."
"I love you too Matt but I can't." He tried to persuade her for a few minutes before she ran off back to their hose, crying uncontrollably. She had screamed at him to give him time then left. Matt got in the car and drove home in a daze. He regretted so much about telling her of his feelings. When he got home, he went straight to the fridge and pulled out some beers. He needed to drown his sorrows. Around two in the morning, he noticed just how silent it was in the house. Hesitantly, he walked up the stairs and into Amy's bedroom. He flicked on the light, expecting her to be asleep but her bed was still made. He then noticed her wardrobe door was open and some of her clothes had gone. She'd left. He looked around her room. Pictures were scattered everywhere. Her and Jeff; her and Matt; Jeff and Matt; or all together. He fell to her bed, sobbing lightly. She'd gone but to where, he didn't know.
I sit here on the stairs
'Cause I'd rather be alone
If I can't have you right now
I'll wait, dear
Sometimes I get so tense
But I can't speed up the time
But you know, love
There's one more thing to consider
Said, woman, take it slow
And things will be just fine
You and I'll just use a little patience
Said, sugar, take the time
'Cause the lights are shining bright
You and I've got what it takes
To make it, We won't fake it,
I'll never break it
'cause I can't take it
The next afternoon, Amy was in the kitchen cooking her dinner when her mum entered. She had gone back to her mother's house in Florida. Needless to say, her family was surprised to find her standing on the doorstep, puffy red eyes from when she'd been crying for continuous hours. Her mum asked her how she felt but there was no need. Her heart was breaking and she wouldn't let it heal again. Around eight o'clock, she crashed on the sofa, ready to watch Raw. Just as she settled down, there was a knock on the door. Sighing, she got up to answer it. Then, she realised it might be Matt. She didn't want to face him so she left the door unanswered.
"Welcome to Raw everybody. It's sold out here in the Pepsi arena. We have just been informed that Matt Hardy was supposed to be wrestling tonight but due to personal matters, will not be joining us. On the subject of Matt, it's been exactly seven months today that Jeff Hardy passed away. It was a great tragedy," JR announced. The tears streamed down her cheeks. Amy laid down on the full length of the couch and eventually fell asleep.
Everywhere she looked, she was met with complete darkness. All of a sudden, it turned bright. She tried to shield her eyes but an arm stopped her. She knew that touch. Jeff. He pulled her arm away and kissed her hand.
"Your time will come. Be happy. Things will work out in the end. It's okay to fall in love again. Matt will make you very happy," he spoke softly. Amy begged him not to go but finally, he disappeared after kissing her for the last time.
Amy jerked awake when the phone rung. Without checking her caller ID, she answered it.
"Amy," the voice started. It was Matt. "Ames, I know you don't want to speak to me but hear me out. I'm willing to wait until you're ready. Just tell me and I'll be there. I still want us to be friends. Just remember that I will always love you."
"Matt, god, umm, I'll come home but please don't pressure me."
"Thank god. I'll promise to have patience and things will work out. We'll take it slow too."
...little patience, mm yeah, mm yeah
need a little patience, yeah
just a little patience, yeah
some more patience, yeah
need some patience, yeah
could use some patience, yeah
gotta have some patience, yeah
all it takes is patience,
just a little patience
is all you need
