why do all good things come to an end?
nelly furtado; All Good Things (Come To An End)
The room feels cold, empty. There are still five beds, but now only four are slept in. Somehow, my heart breaks a little thinking about it. I huddle further under the blankets, trying to catch my breath. They come in the form of long, heaving sobs. I see how withdrawn everyone has become, and I regret. Was I being selfish that day? Maybe I was. I let go of our happiness, for yours. Who am I to do that, really? I may be the leader of the band, but I am merely a fool blinded by love. I still remember that smile you gave me when I told you to follow your dream. I’ll call, you promised. Liar.
Maybe it was my fault. Maybe, just maybe, I shouldn’t have let you go. Either way, I’d be being selfish, won’t I? It wouldn’t be fair to you to hold you back, but now thinking back, it isn’t fair to the boys to let you go. Maybe you were sick of me. You could have just told me, you know. Why hurt the boys? They mean everything to you, I know. They’re my family as much as they are yours. Did you ever know how I felt towards you? Probably not. You were very much in love with someone else. He loved you too. Didn’t you realize you would hurt him by leaving? He doesn’t smile as often anymore, he doesn’t come up with snide remarks. It’s like he’s given up. Maybe he has; maybe we all have.
Jonghyun?
I wipe away my tears, turning to the voice. Kibum, I sigh, seeing his frightened, tear-streaked face. I pull him under the covers with me, and hug him, whispering words of comfort into his ear. I miss him, Jonghyun. I sigh once more, stroking Kibum’s hair. We all do, Kibum, we all do.
I’ll never be able to fill that void you left in us, Jinki.
Come back home, we’re all waiting. Please.
(And the lone dog howls in the middle of the night.)
A/N: The last line. Emily, you'd know what that means right? Hint: It's a superstition. (: and it's referring to jinki.
