Song

I don't own LWD. I do own the song. 400 word drabble.

Dear Diary,

I've pretty much given up all hope on Derek Venturi. It's impossible to think that for one second he could tear his eyes away from her. I'm not bitter, I'm actually okay with it. But I wish he would tell her already.

All they ever do is argue. But it's not like a normal sibling argument. It never is. It's more like, 'Hey, I want you and I don't know how else to show you.' But secretly I know he would never really want to hurt her. He isn't capable of it.

I caught on to him easily. It was his songbook. He writes all D-Rock's songs. Though the ones they actually play completely suck in the lyric department, so you would never know how well he actually writes. I found it one day by accident. I took a notebook off the dining room table at his house, thinking it was mine. But when I got home I was clearly mistaken.

Every song that I never heard his band play was in there. They were finished, unfinished, and even scribbled out, but I knew they were all about her. I even stole a page. I hope he hasn't noticed.

Casey

I can see the fire in your eyes

And even though you're angry at me

I know.

I can see how much I get to you

In the way that makes your skin feel tight

I know.

And I may not be the one you'll choose

But in the end I always get to you.

I make you hate, I make you fume

But at least I know I mean something to you.

You'll never know how you get to me

The way I want so badly to tell you the truth

That from afar I see you so clearly

And I know.

I know your fears, what makes you tick

I know all your favorite songs

I know all your smiles.

I know.

And I know that you'll never understand,

Why I do what I do.

But at least I know I mean something to you.

I want to mean something to you.

The way you mean to me.

I think he loves her. I really do.

Love,

Emily
