-- I Might Need You --

I might need you to hold me tonight.

He couldn't remember the last time she'd kissed his cheek or touched his arm. She would hardly even come near him anymore. He missed her warmth and her touch.

I might need you to say it's alright.

Whenever she spoke to him now, it was always Mr. Todd. None of the usual love or dear or even the affectionate nickname Mr. T. Conversations were limited to utilitarian sentences, such as "We're running a bit low on meat", spoken flatly. She didn't even smile at him anymore. He missed her songs and her laughter and her happy chatter. He missed her voice.

I might need you to make the first stand.

But he didn't know what to do about her behavior toward him. It was his fault. And it wasn't like he could simply apologize and everything would be alright again.

Cause tonight I'm finding it hard to be your man.

A/N: Assume he cut her with the razor or something. I don't have a solid idea of what this was meant to be anymore. I found it when I was cleaning out my old documents.

Reviews are love.
