"I haven't seen Y/n in a few days. Is she okay?" Mom says.

"Yeah, she's..." I say.

"She's been working, she works at Fezco's store." I say.

"Hmm." Mom says squinting her eyes.

"Oh, okay. Have a good day at school." Mom says.

30 minutes later...

I sit beside Y/n and she puts her phone down.

"I feel like we should talk." Y/n says.

"Did you happen to see four $100 bills?" Y/n asks.

"In your wallet?" I ask.

"Yes." Y/n says.

"I spent it." I say quietly.

"What?!" Y/n asks.

"You said that I could get all the money out of your wallet." I say.

"That money was supposed to go on my savings account. Fuck." Y/n says.

You made plans and I, I made problems

I ignore Y/n and she sighs.

"I want to make this work, you know that." Y/n says.

"Can we talk about this in the morning?" Y/n asks.

"Fine." I say laying beside her.

She turns over and I sigh.

We were sleeping back to back

"It's not gonna work anyway." I say.

We know this thing wasn't built to last

"Welcome to class everyone and Ms and Ms Y/l/n." Mr Howard says.

Good on paper, picture-perfect

Everyone Y/n and I are the "it" couple. They think we have the perfect relationship. We don't care no one does. It used to be like that hit as time went on we started getting into more fights.

"Why do you have a ring on your finger?" Maddy asks looking at my hand.

"Y/n gave it to me." I say.

"Y/n proposed?" Maddy asks.

"I wish. It's a promise ring." I say.

Chased the high too far, too fast

"What promise ring has a big-ass diamond on it?" Maddy asks.

Our real ion shop is like a fence. On the outside, where the neighbors can see, the fence is white. On the inside, where only we can see, it's black.

Picket white fence, but we paint it black

"Those who actually want to learn, turn to page 210 in your books." Mr Howard says.

Time Skip

Y/n sniffles and I sigh.

I hate fighting with Y/n. I always end up saying something that hurts her feelings and she just breaks down. She never hurts my feelings, it's just an instinct for me. I wish she would hurt mine so I wouldn't hurt hers.

Ooh, and I wished that you would hurt me harder than I hurt you

"Maybe this is it. Maybe this is where we say our goodbyes." I say.

"Don't say that." Y/n says wiping her tears.

Ooh, and I wish you wouldn't wait for me, but you always do

The room door opens and Y/n's mom comes in.

"Are you staying for dinner?" Y/n's mom asks.

"Yeah, we'll be down in a few." Y/n says.

Y/n's mom nods and leaves.

Time Skip

"There's the couple of the year." Maddy says shutting her locker.

Y/n smiles and I kiss her cheek.

"You make me fucking sick." Maddy says.

"You make me fucking sick." Y/n says.

"Then find someone else who won't." I say.

I've been hopin'
Somebody loves you in the ways I couldn't

"Hey Maddy." Nate says walking by.

"I fucking hate that guy." Maddy mumbles.

"What the fuck do you not hate? You said you hate my friends so I stopped talking to them as much as you. If we break up today or tomorrow, I have a big mess to clean up." Y/n says.

Somebody's taking care of
All of the mess I've made

"Why are you wearing her hoodie? It's not even cold." Maddy says.

"What the fuck are you wearing?" Y/n asks.

"Clothes." I say.

"No, no, no, no." Y/n says.

Y/n takes her hoodie off and gives it to me.

Someone you don't have to change
I've been hopin'

"It's always cold in Mrs Jones class." I say.

"That bitch told me to put a jacket on because my outfit was too revealing. I said no and now she leaves the temp at 60." Maddy says.

"Oh, so, it's your fault the chairs have ice on them?" Y/n says.

"The bitch should've just minded her business." Maddy says before walking away.

Y/n and I look at each other and laughs.

Time Skip

"I kind of broke up with Y/n." I say.

Someone will love you, let me go

"Why? She was perfect, you guys were perfect." Lexi says.

"No one is perfect and we are most certainly not an exception." J say.

"Did she cheat?" Lexi asks.

"No, we've had issues for a while but I've finally had enough." I say.

Someone will love you, let me go

"You guys had issues?" Lexi asks.

"Yeah but she could never left go of me." I say.

I've been hoping someone will love you, let me go

"You hid it so well." Lexi says.

"We never hid it. Everyone is just blinded by her being the softball captain and me being slightly popular. It's a stereotype." I say.

"We were together for 3 years. All those emotions kept building up and now it's at max capacity. You can't leave those in the past, no one can." I say.

It's been some time, but this time ain't even
I can leave it in the past

The room door opens and mom comes in.

"Y/n's downstairs." Mon says

I nod and get up. I go downstairs and Y/n looks up. We go outside and I shut the door.

"Do you really just want to throw 3 years down the drain? I mean, I can't imagine the rest of my life without you." Y/n says.

But you're holding on to what you never had

"I know we've never been perfect regardless of what everyone says." Y/n says.

Good on paper, picture-perfect

"All of the fond memories has to stand for something." Y/n says.

"Did you and Y/n not work out? Did you change your minds?" Kat asks.

"What are you talking about?" I ask.

"You have hickeys on your neck." Maddy says.

"They're from Y/n." I say.

"Nah, nah, nah. It's been 3 days." Kat says.

Chased the high too far, too fast

"Isn't Y/n one of those people who want to wait until marriage?" Maddy ask.

"I mean, look at me." I say spinning around.

"We stan a confident queen." Maddy says.

"We can work these issues out." Y/n says.

Picket white fence, but we paint it black

"I can't keep hurting you." I say.

Ooh, and I wished that you would hurt me harder than I hurt you

Y/n sighs and nods.

"Call me if you change your mind." Y/n says quietly.

Ooh, and I wish you wouldn't wait for me but you always do

She walks away and I go back inside.

Time Skip

"I haven't see you with Y/n in a few days." Rue says.

"We broke up." I say.

"What?!" Jules asks.

"You guys were so cute together." Kat says.

"Fuck that, they dated for 3 years." Maddy says.

"Did she cheat?" Rue asks.

"Yeah I need to know if I should go beat her ass." Maddy says.

"Do it, Maddy, do it." BB says.

"I just can't keep up with her, someone else can. If that makes any sense." I say.

I've been hopin'
Somebody loves you in the ways I couldn't

"I ruined a lot for her and it's selfish of me to tie her down." I say.

Somebody's taking care of
All of the mess I've made

"She doesn't want a fixer upper, she wants a move-in-ready house. I am a fixer upper." I say.

Someone you don't have to change
I've been hopin'

"You're just ready to give a 3 year relationship up?" Jules asks.

"Yeah, for her." I say.

Someone will love you, let me go

"Y'all will still be the "it" couple." Kat says.

Someone will love you, let me go
I've been hoping someone will love you, let me go (go, go, go)

"No." I say.

Someone will love you, let me go (go, go, go)
Someone will love you, let me go (go, go, go)

"We will still gonna be friends." I say.

Someone will love you, let me go (go, go, go)
Someone will love you, let me go

I see Y/n and she waves at me.

I've been hoping somebody loves you in the ways I couldn't

I wave back and she smiles before walking away.

Somebody's taking care of all of the mess I've made

"Can I still beat her ass?" Maddy asks.

Someone you don't have to change

"No!" We all shout.

I've been hoping someone will love you, let me go
