“I could spend 15 minutes
choosing an outfit, or read a 
menu twice and still not know
what to order. You know I’m 
never sure on anything. But I
was so fucking sure on you.”

Luke looked like I’d just punched him in the chest and ripped out his heart - he finally understood how I felt. His eyes were hollow - he’d barely slept and he’d cried a lot, but that didn’t change anything.

“I... I mean... I didn’t... I don’t know what to say.”

“There’s nothing you can say.” I sighed, the tightness in my chest just worsening, rather than letting go and giving me the closure I hoped this conversation would.

“Nothing? No chance at all?” He breathed, his words barely more than a whisper.

“Luke you can’t sleep with another girl, tell me I didn’t even cross your mind then expect me to trust you again.”

“I was blackout drunk-”

“That doesn’t change anything.”

He made me feel like the bad guy. 

“You deserve better.” He whimpered.

"i just want to sleep in your arms one more time"

“I mean, I can hold you with my legs, but I’m afraid my arms are unavailable.” Calum put on this stupid deep voice but he couldn’t help but giggle at the end and it made me miss him even more. I didn’t know what to say. “It’s not forever baby girl - it’s a long ass tour but it’s not forever. I’m going to come visit home and you’re going to come visit on tour and think of how special our time together will feel when we’ve survived being apart for so long.”

Not that he’d already thought about it.

“That doesn’t make missing you easier.”

“No, it definitely doesn’t. But it was for he best, we’ve both got our own lives. And you’ll graduate soon and you’re going to be doing something all clever and... history related and I’m just going to be your dumb band boyfriend.”

“You’re not dumb.” I laughed, I couldn’t help smiling down the phone.

“But I am in a dumb band.” He giggled again.

“You’re not wrong there.”

“I love you.”

“I love you too.”

"I just dont get it. I dont understand how anyone can love me when I dont even like myself one bit" lol i love angst

I sobbed uncontrollably - my breathing was sporadic and panicked and I just couldn’t get a hold on anything; everything was slipping away.

“Hey, hey, baby girl don’t say that - look at me, okay? Breathe with me, just breathe.” Michael quietly encouraged me, forcing me to make eye contact with him and follow the exaggerated movements of his chest - trying to take control of my racing heart and the thoughts flying through my mind.

I closed my eyes and squeezed his hands - I could breathe again.

“This might sound a bit weird but this is how I try to think about those kind of thoughts - what your brain is telling you about all the things you shouldn’t love about yourself, it’s not your brain, it’s the depressed part of your brain - it’s the chemical imbalance telling you lies. It’s trying to convince the rest of your brain that what it’s saying is true and it’s not.”

“But-”

“Maybe your brain is working with the chemical imbalance, but if there are things you don’t like, you’re the only one with the power to change them. You’ve got to take control and remember that you’re in charge. Your depression is not you. You’re stronger than it. And you’ve got me, I’m here to help you fight and together, we’re already winning.” Michael whispered, careful not to send me into sensory overdrive. He pulled me in close and held me tight. “You’re never going to be alone again.”

"i may not be in love yet, but im falling"

I had to swallow my words and bite back my tears. “That’s okay Ash, you don’t have to tell you love her if you’re not there yet.” I smiled, wanting to reach out and comfort him physically but I knew I couldn’t.

“But won’t that put her off?” He asked, looking up suddenly and making direct eye contact with me.

I sniffed, desperately having to control my emotional response. “If she really loves you, she’ll wait.”

His eyes immediately creased, his face became the picture of concern. “What’s wrong?” I opened my mouth to respond but he silenced me with his hand on my knee. “Don’t deny it, I know you better than anybody and I know when you’re hurting.”

I closed my eyes, my bottom lip trembling uncontrollably. I took a deep breath. “I’m going to bed, I’ll see you tomorrow Ash.” I mumbled, standing from the sofa and beelining for my room before he could grab me.

“No, what? Wait!” 

I all-but ran for the stairs, darting into my room and flicking the lock, falling back on the door and sliding down to the floor and holding my knees to my chest - tears free falling down my cheeks.

I’d heard his footsteps and desperate voice following me. I felt him knocking on the door and trying the handle, begging me to let him in but I couldn’t.

He’d never understand how much I wish he’d say he loved me back.

[5sos-prompts]

"But I held you in my arms for about 4 minutes and you were dead. Your heart wasn't beating and that's terrifying. I saw this whole life ahead of me without you. Then you started breathing again on the operating table."

“4 minutes? I was dead for 4 minutes?” I clarified.

“If you try for one second to tell me that it’s pretty cool that you were dead, I will actually kill you.” Ashton scowled - he was still pretty panicky. I’d woken up six or seven hours after surgery and he’d never tell me, but I can tell when he’s anxious.

I bit back the comment about how cool it was that I’d died for a little bit and brushed his hair out of his eyes, pulling his face towards my own so I could kiss his nose.

“I’m sorry I was in a car accident.”

“Don’t say that.”

“If I weren’t such a shitty driver, I’d have been fine.”

“Please, please don’t say that. It happened, you’re going to be okay and I’m not going to lose you. Let’s never think about it again.” He breathed deeply, tears in his eyes and his chest still tense. He was so close to panicking again.

“I’m okay, everything is going to be okay.”

ever wanted to start a blog?

NEW PROJECT: I’ve started a new blog, The Student Seat, where I want past, present and future students to talk about the student experience, the alternatives to uni, a blog about everything related to being a student age I guess!

I want it to be a contribution from all sorts of people - bloggers and writers alongside those who aren’t sure if they want to start or blog or those who don’t think blogging is for them but have something to say! If you’re at all interested in writing or just want to find out more, please go to the contact section of the blog, message the Facebook page or me personally - would love to hear from you!

To get a fuller idea of the intentions of the blog and what I hope for it, you can read this post on my personal blog!

You can like the facebook page here or my personal facebook page here!

Thank you, your support means the world to me!

"You fall in love with everyone you meet"

“What can I say I’m a romantic, capturing the world in a photo is my challenge.” I smirked. “If aliens came to Earth and we needed to summarise humanity and our tiny little planet in one single picture, I’d be your girl.” I winked, trying to be cheeky and endearing but probably just looking a bit strange.

Luke laughed regardless. “I don’t think I could love you any more if I tried.”

“That’s not what I was expecting you to say, but thanks.” I couldn’t help the beaming smile on my face - I’ve never been happier before.

“I see everything differently because of you.” He mused. “You see the world through a camera and I see the world through you looking through a camera. It’s like that man who took pictures of his girlfriend leading him round the world. You’ve opened my eyes.”

“Thanks Aladdin, I think that’s your last drink of the night.” I laughed, taking his beer and finishing it for him, throwing the bottle with the others and taking his hand again.

“I’m so glad you’re in my life.” Luke smiled dopily at me.

“And I’m so glad you’re in mine.”

"How long has it been?" "6 years but who's counting." "Do you wanna get a drin-" "no."

I had to walk away, even seeing Calum again was bringing back too much.

“Hey, come on, things have changed, I’ve changed, I bet you’ve changed, let’s catch up yeah? Put the past behind us?” He called after me, I could hear the desperation in his in his voice.

I stopped, sighed and turned back. “One drink, of my choice, Hood.”

“Of course.”

“I believe you ordered me tap water last time.”

“I know, anything you want it’s on me.” He smiled and gestured back to the bar.

I ordered a double vodka and coke and after light conversation leading to more drinks I felt a closure on what happened 6 years ago.

And I got my friend back.

[5sos-prompts]

"mikey?" "huh" he looks up."you're such a dork"

“I like all my games to be in order.” He pouted, looking up at me from where he sat on his bean bag on the floor.

“I know, I like all my music in order but you’ve been sat there for hours.” I couldn’t help but laugh.

“I’m just trying to figure out what order to put them in.” He stared back at the cases in front of him.

“What are your ideas?”

“Obviously alphabetically but then some of the franchise games wouldn’t be together, then I thought maybe when they were released or how much I’ve completed of them but I don’t think they’d be in order then either, but-”

“How about I help? With my crazy organisational skills? I’ll even write a list for you.” I teased. I have so many coloured pens and post-it notes on my desk and I get unreasonably excited about them.

He smirked at me. “Alright then.”

An hour later we were sat on the couch playing Little Big Planet and the games were splayed all over the floor.

[5sos-prompts]

"It's November why does our apartment look like Santa's workshop?"

“It’s near the end of Novemeber! I’ve got to be ready.” I laughed, fixing the fairy lights on the mantle piece and kicking a stray piece of tinsel under the couch so he wouldn’t notice.

Ashton could help but laugh too. “I mean, I know you love Christmas but you look like you’re about to open a grotto.”

“I’m just so excited! I’ve almost finished all my shopping and I’m about to find the perfect wrapping paper, I can feel it and then I get to go and buy all the ribbon and the bows and the present bags and the sacks and-” I rambled excitedly but Ashton pulled me into his arms for a smily kiss.

“You’re just so adorable, I love you.” He whispered, his eyes locked onto mine so close that he was a bit fuzzy.

I couldn’t help the massive smile back. “I love you too. Also Christmas, I love Christmas.”

“I could never tell.” He giggled, setting me back on my feet to continue where I left off and leaving with a cheeky bum pinch before he went to the kitchen.

I was so excited for another Christmas with him.

[5sos-prompts]

"Y/N, please eat..."

“Luke I’m fine!” I laughed, smiling back at his unnecessarily anxious face. “I’ve had enough I’m okay.”

He sighed, his tight lipped expression meant this conversation wasn’t over. “I think we’re going to head back out to the bus.” He glanced round at everyone else sat around the table - the band and the crew had come out for food between sound check and the show and I was now being taken by my hand back outside.

As soon as we were in the shade of the bus, away from prying eyes he took both my hands in his own and locked his eyes on mine. “Do you think I haven’t noticed?”

“Noticed what, honey?” I was making a lot of effort to keep the tone light.

“I know you don’t eat anything. You skip breakfast, you’ll have, like, a grape for lunch and maybe a slice of pizza at the end of the show but I’m worried about you.”

“Luke, I just, I don’t want to eat, I’m not hungry, I-”

“You’re making excuses, please just tell me what’s really going on?” He begged, his eyes full of fear.

I sighed. “I just really don’t like how I look. I’m so busy all the time with you guys and working out and I was eating healthy and it wasn’t working, I still wasn’t losing weight so I just… I just stopped and now I can’t… I can’t eat again, I don’t want to.” My voice was so small I didn’t know if the words were actually coming out of my mouth.

Luke pulled me into his tight embrace, his hand protectively on the back of my head. “It’s okay. We’re going to make this okay again, you and me, together.” He promised.

And I believed him.

(Halloween AU/Edition) "No way! Not even if you paid me a million dollars" We were standing at the entrance to the theme park's Horror Maze....

“Come on baby, it’ll be fun!”

“Scary is not fun. There is nothing fun about putting myself through that just to be scared shitless.” I protested, crossing my arms over my chest.

“I’ll protect you.” He smiled, wrapping his arms around my waist.

“No.”

“I’ll buy you candy floss?”

“Good, it’ll keep me entertained while you’re in there.” I turned and walked towards the bench I’d already spotted as mine while Calum was in the Horror Maze.

He pouted at me. “Please?”

“I don’t like jump scare stuff, Calum!”

“Okay, okay,” He gave in, sitting next to me. “Maybe we could get that candy floss anyway though?”

“Now that sounds like a plan.” I smirked.

[5sos-prompts]

"Hello! I was wondering if you had this book in stock?"

“I’m afraid not - we just sold the last one this morning.”  I did my best to pull my ‘I’m really sorry to inconvenience you’ face but every kid had to read that text for a school assignment and at least 90% of the student body on this guys course had been in to buy that book already today.

“Oh, okay. No worries.”

This guy looked like the kind of guy who would never voluntarily go into a book shop - unruly hair, somewhat grunge clothing; the eyebrow piercing. But he was in the book shop so that meant he cared at least a little bit.

“But I’ve got my copy out back, maybe we could both use it?” I suggested - I knew Michael Clifford, he was in my English class but he’d have no reason to know who I am.

“Why would you share your book with me?” He looked surprised.

“Because it’s not your fault we’re out of stock.”

He smiled a little, striding back up to the desk “I don’t think our teacher would ever expect us to work on the assignment together.”

“I didn’t say anything about working on it together - I said we could share the book.” I corrected him instantly - I’ve already done half of my assignment but that wouldn’t have been any shock to him.

“Whatever, meet me at the coffee house across town at six?”

“You could just come ove-”

“I really want to take you for coffee.” He interrupted, somewhat forcefully.

“Okay.” I agreed.

[5sos-prompts]

"You're so drunk" He chuckled shaking his head. A pout fell on my face "no I'm not" I stomped my foot in protest before falling unintentionally into his arms that had reached out to grab me.

He giggled. “Are you sure about that?”

“I’m just… wobbly, but it’s okay because you always catch me.” I smiled at him, throwing my arms around his neck and laughing into his neck.

“Course I am - who else will catch you?” He smiled, but even when I wasn’t quite all put together I could tell that he didn’t really mean it.

“What’s wrong?” I asked.

“Nothing sweetheart.” He smiled again - as if that would make me think he meant it.

“Why are you sad?”

He sighed. “Because you’re drunk and I care about you a lot and you’ll never see it. I wish you were this affectionate when you’re sober.”

“I… Ash… I didn’t know.”

“I never wanted you to know.”

“I’m only distant because I never thought you’d like me and then I forget to stay away when I’m drunk because I’m not very good at making decisions and I can’t resist you.” I rambled.

Ashton’s face lit up. “You mean it? You actually mean it?”

“I’m not that drunk!” I reiterated.

“Can I kiss you?”

“Please do.”

It was the sober kisses the next day that really made it though.

[5sos-prompts]

"How long have you liked me?" "It's that obvious, huh?"

“Luke, everyone on the team is talking about it. I noticed but I didn’t want to believe it because you’re talking to that girl and I’m talking to someone but six different people have asked me about it.”

“Clearly I need to work on subtlety.”

“What do you want from me, Luke?” I asked - feeling myself get emotional at having to have this conversation.

“I don’t know. I really like you, but it won’t work. We have to live together so if it doesn’t work out it’ll be really weird and-”

“Actually, I don’t know if I want to know. I don’t know what to do about this.”

“About me?”

“About us.” I sighed, finally making eye contact with him.

“I’ll leave you alone - it’s not your fault, I should have stopped myself, I-”

“Luke I don’t think you get it.”

“Get what?”

“I like you too.”

“Wow, you’re way better than me at subtlety.”
