I'm not being really specific on who this is. Pick two characters (Boy and girl) and think of this as that fic. I don't own Stronger by Kelly Clarkson. I wish… I would be freaking rich by now. :( (I'm trying really hard right now, because I'm absolutely seething) That was a short hiatus! What a good smack to the face does…

What doesn't kill you makes you stronger…

Oh, it sure does kill. I try to hide it, but there's this big gaping hole right here with your name plastered on it. Think of it as the apocalypse. There's this big, earth shattering event, and what little survivors there are have to pick up the pieces. And I'm not any stronger for it.

Stand a little taller…

Because you're not allowed to know how much I crane my neck to look for you waiting for an apology. Stand taller, because I'm really just trying to keep this façade alive longer than the owner.

Doesn't mean I'm lonely when I'm alone…

But I was never truly alone. The ghost of us still haunts me everywhere. And when I'm alone, I might as well be drowning.

They told you I was starting over…

I wish. I really do wish. I want to start over, but he's only a bounce back. Do I feel guilty? You'd bet. Guilty as heck, but you have no remorse.

Just me, myself and I…

And guilt and antidepressants, and my Pokémon. I'm not sure whether being bothered is better than dealing with being alone. There is this special place in my hand I reserved just for you. That space feels oh so empty right now.

So here I am. I really wish for your happiness. It's selfish of me to want my happiness over others. I mean, the two of you are so in love with one another. It's better to have two people happy with one person depressed rather than one person happy with one depressed and the other angry. It all balances out, right? The greater good.

And if she ever leaves you…I'm still right here waiting for you, if you ever want me back. But it's okay. I can understand your feelings of love. I can make you feel better. No pressure though. I'll just fade into the background.
