Stay [One Shot]

Description

 

[Stay]

 

I've been sitting here staring at the clock on the wall
And I've been laying here praying, praying she won't call

               

I’ve never given this any thoughts before but everytime when he said he wanted to see that girl soon, makes my heart shatter into pieces. I’ve been watching him since they day I saw him on a bench sitting peacefully. I watched him go through those stuff he encountered. I watched him rise to fame. I’ve been there for him, when he was down, when he was hurt from all the words they tell him. “I need you.” Young Bae said. I held his hand, “Young Bae, I’m still here for you.” I answered him

 

It's just another call from home
And you'll get it and be gone
And I'll be crying

 

 

 But you never notice this girl beside you. “Young Bae ssi, what can you say about girl idols, fan girling over you?” Someone asked him one day, he looked at me with eyes of glee. Young Bae answer them enthusiastically. While me, I watch him from the back. “Hey! I think she’s the one.” Young Bae said, hugging me tight. I pushed him off, playfully not letting my true feelings show, “Really? Wow! Congratulations!” I told him. “You’re not mad aren’t you?” Young Bae asked. Of course I am! I wanted to say that, “What? Heck no!” I played around, “You must be so happy right now.” I smiled at him, now fighting the tears to fall. “I am happy.” Young Bae said, “Are you happy?” I silently nodded at his question not looking back at him. “She’s waiting for me.” Young Bae said, “I’ll see you later, ok?”

 

I never knew how it would hurt me. I cried that night, till I didn’t notice I fell asleep.

 

And I'll be begging you, baby
Beg you not to leave
But I'll be left here waiting
With my Heart on my sleeve

 

After his show he picked up his phone, I hugged him, “Congratulations.” I said. Young Bae smiled, “Ka—” But he were cut off, “Hey baby.” I hate it when you said that. “No it’s ok, if you weren’t here.” Really Young Bae? You should’ve heard yourself a while ago Dong Young Bae. I laughed silently. “Ok, I will be there.” Please, don’t go to her. “See you later, I love you too.” I shrugged what you said.

 

Oh, for the next time we'll be here
Seems like a million years
And I think I'm dying

 

“Thanks for supporting me.” Young Bae said to me. I just smiled at what he said. “Whenever you want me.” I told him, “I’ll be there.” Young Bae messed up my hair, “I promise you dinner.” Young Bae said while putting on his black leather jacket, “I promise. I missed the way we talk, like before.” Me too, I whispered to myself. When he turned his back to me I was screaming in the inside, I’m dying. Please, stay. I am here. I’m the one you need.

 

What do I have to do to make you see
She can't love you like me?

 

“Hey…” Young Bae said lowly. What did she did to you now? “Hi. What’s up?” I said, not giving a worried hint with my voice. He look so down, I wanted to kiss his lips. “She said I’m so predictable.” Young Bae bent down his head, “She said she hates predictable people.” She’s so wrong. You are not predictable. “What are your plans now?” I asked him. He just looked at me with teary eyes. “I thought you were strong?” I told him. “I thought so too.” Young Bae answered. He leaned his head on to my shoulder, he sobbed like he never did. She can’t love you like me. I wanted to tell you.

 

Why don't you stay
I'm down on my knees
I'm so tired of being lonely
Don't I give you what you need
When she calls you to go
There is one thing you should know
We don't have to live this way
Baby, why don't you stay

I looked at him sleeping like a baby. I touched his forehead, his cheeks, his eyes, his nose, his chin and his lips slowly. I stared at him for a while. His cellphone went off. He immediately opened his eyes and I immediately put a distance between us. His eyes were so puffy, I wanted to cry. “Yeoboseyo?” Young Bae answered his phone. Now she calls you, “No, don’t be sorry.” I wanted to hit him but I can’t. She calls you to go, and you say you’ll come to her. “Ok, babe. I’m coming.” He said. I played with my hands, Young Bae stood up. He cupped my face, and stared at my eyes. He gave me a kiss on the forehead, “Thank you for always being there.”

 

Young Bae walked out slowly, I caught up to him, hugged him tight from the back. “Why don’t you stay?” I felt him smile, he slowly removed my arms around him. “I would love too.” He told me. “Then stay…” He hurriedly went out.

 

You keep telling me, baby
There will come a time
When you will leave her arms
And forever be in mine
But I don't think that's the truth
And I don't like being used and I'm tired of waiting
It's too much pain to have to bear
To love a man you have to share

 

I know him and her are gonna be forever. “I wanna marry someday.” Young Bae told me. That made my heart sink in the deepest part of the ocean. “But I think she’s not the marrying type.” I looked at him with a puzzled look. He smiled, “You are more like a marrying type.” My heart jumped. Do you really mean that? “Stop it Young Bae.” I told him, “But whatever you do, I will be there.” He took my right hand, “My point.” My eyes widened, “You were and still is there for me. No matter what.” He sighed. I squeezed his hand, “Wish it was you.” Young Bae said.

 

I went close to him kissed him on the cheeks, “Then be with me.” I whispered to him. His head shoot up. “But still you can’t.” I let go of his hand. “Go quick.” I told him, pushing him to the door, “Go to her!” I got to my knees and cried my lungs out.

 

Why don't you stay
I'm up off my knees
I'm so tired of being lonely
You can't give me what I need
When she begs you not to go
There is one thing you should know
I don't have to live this way
Baby, why don't you stay, yeah 

I tried to be strong. I tried to stand back up again. I’m trying to be happy for you. I’m looking at our picture together, “How I wish I never had this feeling, and never had to share you.” I sighed to myself. There came knocking on my door. “Who is it!?” I answered, no hint of sadness, I think. Then the knocking went louder. I opened my door. My eyes widened. What have she done to you now? You never looked so tired and beaten before. “Wh-what are you doing here?” I asked him, “Wh-why are you here?” He faced me, tears streaming down his face. I wiped it away, Young Bae kissed my hands, “I’m here for you.” He whispered, “I’m here to stay.”

i wished it was a bit longer...was he crying because of the other gurl or was he crying because he already realised that he loved 'me'?
