Hey, I found a chance to write, so here I am. I'm hoping you like that the POV's don't change in a chapter. Well. I am going to do a one-shot today too. But first a chapter. Thanks for all your support xoxoxo

SYSLT: Paint you wings – All Time Low

Chapter 5.

Loren's POV

"When will the princess,

Figure it out,

She ain't worth saving."

That was something I always questioned. Mario gave his life for her. More than one of his lives, (AN: I refer to Mario bros) it doesn't make sense that someone gives, roughly 10 lives to save just 1. I don't get it. Maybe that's why I'm not going for it – I'm scared. Scared I end up being Mario. Giving all my lives, to be with someone who will just end up hurting me. Eddie would be the princess just then.

I admit, I want to call Eddie, want to hear his voice, but I'm scared. He'll end up breaking my heart. And I know that. What bothers me more is that I'm already in too deep. I'm sitting here on the couch, playing Mario and I feel like I can't live without him. Feel like it's been ages since I've seen him. While it's actually just 21 hours – yes, I am counting.

"Honey, are you sure you're okay?" I heard my mom say. "I'm fine, mom." I replied, trying to sound okay. I knew she didn't buy it.

"Are you planning on going to school tomorrow?" she asked me. "Maybe, if I feel better." I said. Hoping she would shut up – not to be rude or something, I just wanted to be alone. To answer my mom's question from earlier. I'm not planning on going to school. I don't want to face Mel. It's feels awful… not telling my best friend something, not wanting to see her, and it hurts. I just want to be alone. I don't want anyone's help, sympathy or compassion.

I need to get out of this house, so I went to our spot. I knew Eddie wouldn't be here, because it was day. I never saw him during the day, up there. At least, I thought I knew, I was oddly wrong. As I walked up the hill, I saw someone sitting against the tree. Guitar with him and everything. In a hoodie, baseball cap and sunglasses – while the sun wasn't even shining. I sat down, next to the person.

"Hi." I said awkwardly. "Hey" The person replied, in a sexy voice. I recognized the voice. "Eddie?" "Hey Lo." I observed him. No, definitely not an old man. He was quite good looking. Not older than 24.

"Why are you wearing sunglasses, while the sun isn't even shining?" I asked him. He shifted uncomfortable, and shrugged. "I'm sorry, are you blind or something?" I asked, curious and scared I said something wrong at the same time.

"No, it's not that. I just, uh.. just" "just what?" "I wear them so I-I don't get recognized." That doesn't make sense, rigt? Or does it? I'm confused right now.

"Why? You're not some sort of criminal, right?" I asked him. "No, I'm actually a-" and then, my phone went off. Just the right moment.

I got up and got my phone out of my pocket. Cam, read the caller ID. "sorry, I gotta take this." I quickly said to Eddie as I picked up my phone.

"Hey Cam!"

"How'd you know it was me?"

"Caller ID, Cam. But why are you calling?"

"I was wondering where you are. I missed you at school today, and you weren't working your shift."

"I was at home the whole day. I didn't feel too good."

"Do you want me to come over?"

"No, Mel is coming over already."

"oh, Okay, I'll see you tomorrow then?"

"Yeah, see you tomorrow, I guess. Bye Cam."

"Bye, beautiful."

I blushed a little, this was honestly the first time someone has called me beautiful.

"Who is Cam?" Eddie said, all tensed up. "A friend, from school." I replied and I saw Eddie relax. What's up with him? "Well, I should get going." I said to Eddie. He stood up too.

We were walking off of the hill, when I stumbled. I tried to hang onto Eddie, but I just pulled him with me. We started to roll off of the hill, and Eddie pulled me close. It felt safe. We were rolling and rolling. Until we finally stopped. Eddie was on top of me and his cap fell of, while rolling. He looked into my eyes, for a second, and then crashed his lips onto mine. I pulled away. He looked at me with a questioning expression, written over his face. I rolled us over, now I was on top of him, instead of the other way around.

"I find it annoying to kiss someone with sunglasses on." I stated as I pulled his sunglasses off of his face. I didn't even look at him, before I crashed my lips against his, again.

Wow, that was fun to write.
