if i can’t love her // strongume
Bailey had been looking everywhere for Sandrine, having lost her when she excused herself earlier. He thought maybe he had missed her, between the Harlem situation and all the people, but he couldn’t be sure. Speaking of Harlem, he couldn’t seem to find her anywhere, but his priority was Sandrine.
They had agreed to go tonight as friends, the word making Bailey’s heart ache on the inside. He knew he shouldn’t be complaining, considering she even decided to go with him at all, but these stupid feelings made everything difficult. He hated how it made him feel on the inside, like he was dying even more than he usually felt. He thought about her all the time, even managing to write not only one, but three songs about the whole situation. It was getting ridiculous, but he knew he could never say anything. He couldn’t ruin things.
After taking another sweep of the museum, he decided to head outside to take a much-needed smoke. He had been trying to stop the habit due to the damn girl, but he was desperate at the moment. Things were becoming too much. Just as he finished taking his first drag, he spotted a familiar gown, walking over to her. “Sardine.. I’ve been looking for you everywhere. What happened?”
