Hey guys! This is a Larrie one shot with the song Like We Used To by A Rocket to the Moon! Sorry for the wait guys.
I remember how it felt holding her close... I remember the days she let me sleep over to watch horror games and how she could never sleep afterwards unless I was by her. Even if we just best friends when I wanted to be more, I still miss it... Ever sense she started dating some guy named Lucus, he hasn't let us do anything like we used to. What does this guy do that I can't? I bet he doesn't watch her favorite movies, even if he did, I know he doesn't hug her when she cries at them. Why couldn't that be me? Why couldn't I get the guts to ask her out? I should really stop dwelling on everything and do something about it... But all I can think about is how I would sing to all her music as she danced to Purple Rain. I'm starting to hate that I let myself fall for her... But how could I blame myself or anyone for falling for Carrie? She's amazing. She's everything a guy would want in a girl. I just miss her... It's been 14 months, seven days, and three hours sense she dated that asshole she calls a boyfriend and it's been 14 months sense we last hung out on our own... And I HATE it.
Ever sense they started dating, Kim and Konnie have been trying to help mw get over her. Even if they both know that's impossible for me. Atleast they're trying, while I'm just sitting in my room listening to My Chemical Romance and Three Days Grace non-stop when he's talking her into something stupid. Right then something just dinged in my head. 'If only it were me instead of him, If only I could be in that bed again.' After that, I started to write every word that popped up in my head. When that was done, I stood up and grabbed my phone and called the twins. Right when they picked up, I said something I haven't heard in 14 months. "Girls, I've got a crazy plan that might just work."
About two hours later, Kim, Konnie and I were sneaking into Carrie's open garage. Which, I'm guessing Lucas kept it open when he came over. So we set up on the stage where there was a dusty stand were my bass was resting on it. I picked it up with a smile and started dusting it off. "Alright girls, ready?" They both nodded. I smiled as I started to play the soft beat of the song that I wrote for her.
I can feel her breath as she's sleepin' next to me,
Sharing pillows and cold feet.
She can feel my heart, fell asleep to it's beat,
Under blankets and warm sheets.
If only I could be in that bed again...
If only it were me instead of him...
Does he watch your favorite movies?
Does he hold you when you cry?
Does he let you tell him all your favorite parts when you've seen it a million times?
Does he sing to all your music while you dance to "Purple Rain? "
Does he do all these things, like I used to?
Fourteen months and seven days ago...
Oh, I know you know,
How we felt about that night.
Just your skin against the window...
Oh, we took it slow,
And we both know...
It should've been me inside that car.
It should've been me instead of him... in the dark.
Half way though the song Carrie and Locus walked into the garage, Carrie smiling like a fool as Locus was furious. I didn't even bother looking at Locus though, I was maining looking at Carrie as I sang.
Does he watch your favorite movies?
Does he hold you when you cry?
Does he let you tell him all your favorite parts when you've seen it a million times?
Does he sing to all your music while you dance to "Purple Rain? "
Does he do all these things, like I used to?
I know, love, (I'm a sucker for that feeling.)
Happens all the time, love, (I always end up feelin' cheated.)
You're on my mind, love, (or so that matter when I need it.)
It happens all the time- love, yeah.
Will he love you like I loved you?
Will he tell you everyday?
Will he make you feel like you're invincible with every word he'll say?
Can you promise me if this was right:
Don't throw it all away!
Can you do all these things?
Will you do all these things...
Like we used to?
Oh, like we used to...
After a few last strums, the song was done and Lucas went nuts. "HEY NEPP! I THOUGHT YOU WEREN'T THIS-!" Before Lucas could even finish Carrie smached him. "Don't even TRY to insult my best friend Lucas. I'm sick of you being so heartless to everyone I care about. I was a sucker for this feeling, but this feeling wasn't true at all." Carrie then looked at me and smiled showing her white shinny teeth. "I miss the way we used to too Lens. You're always on my mind, and it happens all the time. And no, he doesn't watch my favorite movies and he defiantly doesn't hold me when I cry. I'm not even allowed to listen to Purple Rain. Lens, also, I don't love him like I loved you." I walked off stage and walked up to her. "So you did get what the song was about huh?" She laughed lightly. "Well no duh dummy. You think you were the only one counting days sense I've last seen you thanks to Lucas? I was counting even the seconds! The only reason I was dating him though was because I though it would be the best for all of us... Not letting me fall for you or anything, but I was wrong. I already did fall for you and I couldn't help it." I smiled sheepishly. "Really?" She nodded, before Lucas pushed me away from her. "CARRIE, I told you before. You aren't allowed to leave till I tell you-" "QUIT TREATING HER LIKE AN ITEM! She has her own life, let her choose what she want to do with it!" After a few moments. "You know what? See you all in hell!"
After Lucas stormed out Care look at me. "Sorry you had to wait so long Lens..." I just smiled. "There's nothing to be sorry about Care. Just as long as we can be like we used to." Carrie grabbed my hand at this moment. "Maybe even more then we used to..."
SORRY THIS TOOK SO LONG! ALEGBRA ONE IS KICKING MY ASS!
