You Give Me Something - James Morrison
You only waited up for hours
Just to spend a little time alone with me
And I can say I’ve never bought you flowers
I can’t work out what they mean
Ho Hey - The Lumineers
I belong with you, you belong with me,
You’re my sweetheart
I belong with you, you belong with me,
You’re my sweetheart
Poison & Wine - The Civil Wars
I wish you’d hold me when I turn my back
The less I give the more I get back
Oh your hands can heal, your hands can bruise
I don’t have a choice but I’d still choose you
Give Me Love - Ed Sheeran
And that I’ll fight my corner
Maybe tonight I’ll call ya
After my blood turns into alcohol
No, I just wanna hold ya
Yellow - Coldplay
Oh yeah your skin and bones
Turn into something beautiful
You know, you know I love you so
You know I love you so
It’s All Over - The Broken Family Band
I could hold, your beautiful hands
And kiss, your beautiful eyelids
Throw open, your beautiful doors
And phone, your beautiful friends, but it’s all over
Cosmic Love - Florence + the Machine
I took the stars from my eyes, and then I made a map
And knew that somehow I could find my way back
Then I heard your heart beating, you were in the darkness too
So I stayed in the darkness with you
Yellow Light - Of Monsters and Men
I’m looking for a place to start,
But everything feels so different now.
Just grab a hold of my hand,
I will lead you through this wonderland.
I Love You, Sleepyhead - Lanterns on the Lake
There’s a fallen shore, I know
And I’m thinking of home tonight
There’s a spark in our eyes
But I’m letting you down tonight
How to Save a Life - The Fray
As he begins to raise his voice
You lower yours and grant him one last choice
Drive until you lose the road
Or break with the ones you’ve followed
“Mhmmmmm.” Lily mumbled with a smirk, lazily drawing out her words to fill the gap of silence. The truth was, she did feel at least slightly guilty about letting him go back there alone, just to do her a favor. She hated feeling responsible for his well being, like it was her job to protect him, but she did, and she couldn’t help thinking that maybe she could have prevented this from happening. “It’s just a stupid jumper.” She shrugged. “Hardly worth getting yourself killed over.” She turned, laying a hand gently on his chest as he winced, looking back at him straight faced. “Does it hurt horribly?”Lily rolled her eyes, her lips twitching into a wide spread smile as she shook at head to herself. “Deal.” She looked down at him as he collapsed back onto the mattress, placing her hand palm flat on his chest. “Don’t kill yourself, yeah?” She grinned, turning her torso and bending down further towards him reinitiating the kiss, keeping one hand resting on his chest, the other one firmly on the mattress beside them. Pulling back, she shifted her position, swinging her legs up onto the bed and settling next to him. She bent her knees, moving her head just enough to rest with his. “I’ll only regret it if you make me regret it.” She raised an eyebrow, nudging him gently in the shoulder.
Jack relaxed back into the mattress further, as she moved next to him, the comfort was overwhelming when she was near not that he would have admitted it to either her or himself, but it was there all the same, niggling at the back of his brain. “I aint even got to kill myself babe, not when so many of your mates want to do it for me ay?” Jack nudged her slightly, he kissed her softly, groaning a little into her lips contentedly. “Oh come on babe do you know me at all? As if you wont be sick of me in two fucking minutes, you know how I am. Besides, if I wasn’t driving you mental you would think I’d been transplanted into someone else or something ay?”
Lily snickered, nodding her head. “Although that only happened because I let you out of my sight. I guess I can just never let that happen again.” She waggled her eyebrows, smirking slightly. “Or maybe it was because you were doing me too many favors, and I shouldn’t have let you do that last one.” She shrugged, her words cut off as he moved in and kissed her, her lips pushing back into his. “If I got sick of you that quickly I probably would have fucked off a long time ago. Mhmm.” She stretched her arms out above her head, before settling further down into the mattress.
“Oh I think I can live with that babe. You never letting me out of your sight. You can be my little bodyguard or something ay? Then you really will get sick of me though. Ah fuck it babe if I can’t do favors for you then I aint that great of a boyfriend am I? Nearly got killed and shit, just to get you a fucking jumper, but hell it was what I signed up for. I knew this relationship business was bullshit from the beginning. Didn’t know it would kill me though.” Jack laughed softly, wincing as his chest pulled slightly. “Nah babe you wouldn’t fuck off because I just fuck you too good. You wouldn’t know what to do without my abilities to make you burst from your ecstasy.” Jack winked at her, twisting his lips to a small smirk.
Lily snickered, nodding her head. “Although that only happened because I let you out of my sight. I guess I can just never let that happen again.” She waggled her eyebrows, smirking slightly. “Or maybe it was because you were doing me too many favors, and I shouldn’t have let you do that last one.” She shrugged, her words cut off as he moved in and kissed her, her lips pushing back into his. “If I got sick of you that quickly I probably would have fucked off a long time ago. Mhmm.” She stretched her arms out above her head, before settling further down into the mattress.Lily rolled her eyes, her lips twitching into a wide spread smile as she shook at head to herself. “Deal.” She looked down at him as he collapsed back onto the mattress, placing her hand palm flat on his chest. “Don’t kill yourself, yeah?” She grinned, turning her torso and bending down further towards him reinitiating the kiss, keeping one hand resting on his chest, the other one firmly on the mattress beside them.

She bent her knees, moving her head just enough to rest with his. “I’ll only regret it if you make me regret it.” She raised an eyebrow, nudging him gently in the shoulder.Lily shrugged, smiling slightly to herself, cocking her head to the side. “You deserve it, at least a little bit, but I suppose you’ve gotten your fair share by now.” She leaned down, kissing him instead, running her lips softly against his. She pulled away, raising an eyebrow at him as she saw is face twist into a pained expression, leaving wondering for a brief moment if he was legitimately hurt. Her mouth fell into an ‘o’ as he began to speak, leaving her grasping at words. It was all she could do not to break into a laugh, his attempt at an apology just seemed so out of place coming from his mouth that it was endearing. She nodded instead, her features sporting a slightly amused expression as she smiled back at him. “It’s okay. Really, I’m cool.” She shifted in her seat, sitting further over on the mattress, leaving both feet on the floor. “But you know, you were a fuck of a lot easier to deal with when you were unconscious.” She teased. “Still, I’m glad you aren’t, anymore.”“Well I tell you what babe, when I am up to fucking you senseless again feel free to beat the shit out of me whilst I fuck the hell out of you yeah?” Jack smirked at her cheekily, his voice rising slightly with excitement. His words were quickly cut off, as her lips hit his and he groaned, attempting to push back up towards her, but he hissed at the pain shooting through him again. He fell back into the pillow, looking at her and smiling weakly, “Come and lie next to a pathetic cunt ay? Give me a break here, I am attempting to get close to ya but it hurts like a bitch, you can lie on my chest if you like. Seeing as you are here, I may as well get some use outta ya, you can be my sexy personal healer ay babe?” He winked at her, laughing softly. “Glad I am conscious ay? You might regret that sooner rather than later babe.”
Lily shrugged, smiling slightly to herself, cocking her head to the side. “You deserve it, at least a little bit, but I suppose you’ve gotten your fair share by now.” She leaned down, kissing him instead, running her lips softly against his. She pulled away, raising an eyebrow at him as she saw is face twist into a pained expression, leaving wondering for a brief moment if he was legitimately hurt.

She sighed exasperatedly, drumming her fingers on the arm of the chair. “I know that you warned, for fucks sake you’ve warned me enough times to ingrain it into my brain. It’s all on me. I get it. It’s my risk, and I’m taking it. And that’s that.” She said in a matter-of-fact tone, nodding her head decisively. She swallowed guiltily as he continued to speak, curling her hands into fists. She kept quiet, not trusting herself enough to respond, instead nodding her head slowly. She relaxed a little as he smiled, losing her hands from their grip. “Let me tell you something.” She stood up from her chair, swiftly crossing the length of the room to the side of his bed. She laid a slender finger on the middle of his chest, poking him accusingly with each word she spoke. “You are the most stubborn, overblown, idiotic, cocky, irresponsible fucker I have ever met in my entire life.” She bent down further, cupping his face with her hands and kissing him deeply, brushing her nose against his. “Sometimes I don’t even know how I can stand you.” She mumbled against his lips, her mouth curling into a small smile.
Jack sighed happily as she moved closer to him, happy for her presence. He winced a little, as she poked his chest, but smirked all the while. He groaned softly as her hands moved to his face her lips upon his. “Mmm I am all of those things, and rather proud of them. How you stand me? Oh it is my awesome hot good looks, not to mention my very cunning ability to fuck you senseless. Don’t pretend you don’t love it babe. Hell I would have you on this bed right now if I wasn’t all but unable to move.” Jack winked at her, his nose wrinkling a little. “You are pretty fucking stubborn yourself babe why did you even come back anyway? I thought I would have pissed you off too much wasn’t expecting to see you at all.”
“Yeah, yeah, of course you are.” Lily rolled her eyes with a smile, shaking her head as he spoke. “Oh naturally that must be reason, I have no idea why I didn’t see it before.” She knocked her palm softly against he side of his head. “I’m not pretending anything, you know perfectly well that I love it. You would, hmm?” She cocked an eyebrow, smirking to herself as he winked. She faltered, pausing as he questioned her, unsure of what to say. She didn’t want to mention that it was his mother, and have him to start pulling the pride act again, especially not after they had just gotten over this one. “Uh, oh you know. I got bored with myself, decided it might be best if I just came back around.” She shrugged, taking a seat gingerly on the side of the bed.
Jack laughed heartily, grinning at her cheekily, before pouting a little, “All this abuse babe? Is it really necessary? By all means bring all the kink when we are fucking but you are being rather rough with me right now and I aint exactly on top form love.” Jack raised his eyebrows, noting her hesitation but just assumed she was feeling a bit off about coming back after his behaviour, he felt the bile rise in his throat. He would have to say sorry and he fucking hated saying sorry to anyone ever. He scrunched up his face the pain evident only this time it was his pride hurting not his wounds. “I am like you know sorry and shit for that babe. Like I was a cunt and you were nice and stuff yeah and like I just turned a bit like cuntish I do know that and I am like happy you came back and stuff. Thanks yeah? My own ma struggles to not kill me sometimes and even she has gone home because she’s had enough so I am like you know happy and all that to have you here babe. I might have missed staring at your ass and tits ever so slightly when you fucked off when I made you fuck off.” Jack grinned at her, hoping his pathetic attempts were at least appreciated somewhat. She knew him, she must realise how hard it was for him right?
“Yeah, yeah, of course you are.” Lily rolled her eyes with a smile, shaking her head as he spoke. “Oh naturally that must be reason, I have no idea why I didn’t see it before.” She knocked her palm softly against he side of his head. “I’m not pretending anything, you know perfectly well that I love it.

She wasn’t really angry with him, it was hard to be while he was all beaten up and bed bound in front of her, but that didn’t mean she still wasn’t miffed at the least. He was just so fucking stubborn, it was more than a little difficult to deal with. “For Merlin’s sake, have you even been listening to one fucking word I’ve said this entire time?” She was trying not to shout, but she couldn’t keep the tone of her voice from raising. “I swear to fuck, you have the thickest skull of anyone I have ever met in my entire fucking life. I don’t let other people make my choices for me, and I don’t base them off what other people think. This is my life, not anyone else’s, and I’m going to do what I want if it fucking kills me.” She pursed her lips, ignoring the irony lacing her words. “I trusted you before. You haven’t done shit to me, so why the hell wouldn’t I trust you now? You know what, you’re right, maybe you aren’t so smart, because I’m really starting to think that you’re a bit fucking idiotic. You talk about everyone else and how they beat on you, and how they don’t give you a chance, they don’t give you a break; forget about everyone else, you’re the one who needs to give yourself a break. Anything that they’ve ever said about you, you’ve said it ten times worse to yourself.” She pressed her feet into the floor breathing shortly out her nose. “Yes, I care about you, okay? You’d think I just said that my mother was a dragon or something, it’s not that shocking.”
Jack sighed, shaking his head and pinching his nose in an effort to not lose his temper. He winced as he moved the pain ripping through him once more. “On your fucking head be it babe don’t say I didn’t fucking warn you. If you want to throw it away, your friends, your reputation then who am I to stop you? Besides you aint the only one who cares I care too fuck knows why but I do I really care about you and I hated it when you were ill I just wanted to help you but I felt so fucking useless.” Jack gasped slightly unsure why he was being so honest but unable to contemplate it much further without having to think upon things he wanted to avoid so he simply chose to ignore it. “Yeah I am hard on myself babe but only for one thing there is only one thing I hate myself for and how the fuck could anyone live with doing that to someone?” Jack grinned at her next words, attempting to lighten the mood, “Wait babe are you telling me your mother aint a dragon? Fuck it you’ve upset me now.” He smiled at her cheekily, “Fucking come and give me a kiss or something babe you’re all over there huffing and puffing, you sure your mother aint a dragon? You’re doing a damn good impression of one you know!”
Lily huffed, her jaw jutted out and her shoulders squared off in an angry looking stance. She wasn’t really angry with him, it was hard to be while he was all beaten up and bed bound in front of her, but that didn’t mean she still wasn’t miffed at the least. He was just so fucking stubborn, it was more than a little difficult to deal with. “For Merlin’s sake, have you even been listening to one fucking word I’ve said this entire time?” She was trying not to shout, but she couldn’t keep the tone of her voice from raising. “I swear to fuck, you have the thickest skull of anyone I have ever met in my entire fucking life.

You’d think I just said that my mother was a dragon or something, it’s not that shocking.”“Pity you? No, I don’t fucking pity you. I wouldn’t choose to be with someone because I felt bad for them. To be completely honest, that would just be wasting both of our time. Oh, so it’s fine? Is it really? I wouldn’t have even thought about it, but now that you’ve given me permission.” She rolled her eyes in a huff, jutting out her jaw in an exasperated manner. “I didn’t say you expected me to. What I’m saying is that this is my choice and I know this is my choice. Whatever comes along with the decision I make is all on me, and I’m okay with that. I know what I’m doing, I understand the consequences, but I’m sticking with my choice, because no matter if you think it can or not, it makes me happy. Okay?” She let out a heavy breath, trying to stop from acting so hostile and guarded. She twisted her lips together, sighing deeply. “I don’t know. I just do, okay? I like you, as a person. I don’t care what you did in the past. I mean, no, I care, but I just, I trust you, and uh,” She shifted slightly uncomfortably, moving her feet to the floor. “You’re smart, alright, and adventurous, and you know, fun. I don’t give to much of a fuck what sort of situation you get yourself into, I’m not just going to screw off.” She clicked her nails together, fidgeting with her hands, before continuing in a softer voice. “You don’t do that to the people you care about.”
Jack tried his best to hold his temper chewing on his lips he knew it wasn’t her fault and he knew he had to be grateful to her and truthfully all he wanted was to launch from the bed and hold her: not that he could in his state but he wanted to all the less. But he was a proud boy, far too proud for his own good and he wanted nothing more than to push her away for his prides sake, but he couldn’t, he wanted her, he needed her, he loved being around her, she made him happier than he had been for a long time and selfishly he didn’t have the reasons to fight her words as much as he should. He raised an eyebrow, “You still trust me? After all this shit? You see what you’re friends have done to me, because of what I did, and you still trust me? I aint smart babe I am just about as far from smart as they come. You are smart though, you should know better than to fuck with a useless prick like me! Care about? Wait, what? You care about me?”
