i finally make my ever anticipated return to the dash , please like this for a lyric starter , and i’ll come to your for muse , please have a few in mind .
eyes land on the bag , then the floor before traveling around the room – everywhere except him . clearing her throat , she attempts to keep her emotions at bay , to conceal the hurt behind an undeniably furious gaze . “ for how long , paxton ? ” the inquiry is presented with an arched brow , arms crossing against her chest . despite her demeanor , her voice still trembles slightly . “ are you really back or do you plan to just disappear again ? ” swallowing thickly , she takes a step back , increasing the distance between them . “ i’d like a warning this time . ”
it’s weird to think about how quickly things change , that seemingly hours ago he’d held her in his arms , promised her an eternity together , only to leave without so much as an explanation . “ sierra please , ” he starts but is unable to finish , an attempt to reharness whatever emotional outburst was about to occur . he knows how badly he’s cracked the foundation of something that before he left wasn’t fragile , quite the opposite , and now he doesn’t dare look her in the eye with the slight trembling in her tone , with the growing awareness that it’ll only break him further . “ i was trying to keep you safe , i did this for us , ” it’s the only thing he can say that doesn’t feel like an excuse . like a slap in the face to the trust he’d worked so hard to build with her in the first place . “ i’m not going anywhere , i promise . ”
her initial shock displays all over features . for a moment , some semblance of content is restored . sierra spent so many nights staying up late , worrying about his safety … but he’s here safe and sound . however , the feeling of relief is quickly replaced with anger . he left without a warning ━ no call , no text , nothing . she was completely in the dark for days ; gnawing the inside of her cheek , her eyes watch him carefully , unsure where to start . “ you’re back . ” the words expel out of her more as a question .
he stands in the doorway , unsure of how the room their standing in hasn’t caved in upon itself . keeping her out of harms way had been the easy part , the difficult part was always leaving . even if it wasn’t permanent , even the thought that he had abandoned sierra , was a weight that he couldn’t bare to carry . but not returning wasn’t an option , out of all the things he’d lost in his absence , he’d hoped she wouldn’t be one of them . the soft thud of his bag on the floor seems to be the only sound in the vacuum they’ve created around them , “ i’m back . ”
i finally make my ever anticipated return to the dash , please like this for a lyric starter , and i’ll come to your for muse , please have a few in mind .
the 10 people he’s following are : sierra ( of course ) , pringles , oreos , netflix , vans , chipotle , recess ( water brand he drinks ) , tifanny & co , glossier , & ryan reynolds . his reasoning ? he only follows the ten most vital things in his life .
