Looks like I still didn't listen and kept listening to sad songs after I said I'd start writing something happier. It's not very long, but god, I needed to let my emotions out. So here's this heartbreaking piece.

My inspiration, the song My Heart Will Go On.


"I miss you, Clem... We all do." Violet sat with her back to the white wooden door. Her voice gentle but dripping with concern and longing.

It had been two weeks, two weeks without seeing her girlfriend. They all knew what had happened, none of them held it against her. It wasn't in any way, shape, or form Clem's fault. But it still bothered the girl, like she should of been expecting it. But how could you prepare yourself for something like that?

Violet respected Clem's wish to be alone, but it bothered the girl with how distant she was being. Even now as she sat opposite from her with that damned piece of wood between them. She knew Clem was hurting, even if there was only the sound of silence coming from the other side. It was agonizing to know that her girlfriend was struggling and she couldn't do anything about it. Why wouldn't Clem just let her in? It didn't matter what she looked like, Violet still loved her no matter what. Her heart still went on.

Violet leaned her head back against the door closing her eyes, blocking out the light of the dimly lit hallway. Staying silent and still while she thought about what to say. Almost as if she could reach out through the door with her mind to comfort the girl instead of physically doing it. Just like she could feel the hopelessness radiating from the brunette. All the hurt and brokenness that surrounded the girl ever since the incident two weeks ago. Violet didn't need to see her, to know of the silent tears that dripped down to soak the neck of a lavender t-shirt inside the darkness of the room.

Like two worlds being separated by a thin sheet, just inches away yet so far apart. A split between light and darkness, but both sides longing for the same thing. Wanting so badly to meet in the middle but being stopped by the fear of the light coming to greet the darkness of despair.

Violet opened her eyes taking a deep breath and letting it out with a sigh. "Clem..." She hesitated, looking for the right words to say. "It doesn't matter what happened. I just want you to know that... I'm here for you."

Violet pressed her forehead against the door alongside her hand. "I-I love you, Clementine. Nothing will ever change that. No matter where you are, my heart will go on. Please..." The pleading clear in her voice. "...just open the door."

She waited in silence. The seconds turning to minutes without a noise coming from either side or even the house for that matter. Violet closed her eyes, waiting for a sign, a sound, anything to tell her that her words had made it through to the brunette.

Finding no reply Violet let out a disappointing sigh, letting her hand sink to the floor. That was her last shot. If Clem wouldn't let her in there wasn't anything more she could do. She went to turn away, leaving Clem alone again when a voice stopped her.

"Violet...? Came a whisper almost so quiet that the blonde almost hadn't been sure it was real.

Violet whipped back around senses keen so she wouldn't miss a thing. "Yes? I'm here babe."

"Just..." Violet could hear the brokenness that laced the younger girl's voice. "...p-promise me one thing."

"Anything, babe." Violet eagerly replied. Her heart not knowing if it wanted to break at the sound of her voice or leap out of her chest at the joy of Clem actually saying something.

"T-that you won't l-leave me."

"I never will," Violet promised with a voice filled with sincerity unlike any other she had shown before.

Violet's eyes widened with surprise when she heard the faint click of a lock. She quickly moved away from the door and sat back waiting to see what would happen. With silent movements, the door slowly swung open letting light enter the once darkened space casting elongated shadows across the floor. In the middle of the doorway sat the seventeen-year-old girl looking different since the last time Violet had seen her after the incident during the baseball game.

She wore a lavender t-shirt and a pair of green shorts, but only half of her left leg now remained wrapped tightly in a light blue cast. The last game having changed her life forever. Hitting the ball out into the field, rounding first and second base, only to be stopped with a hit to the leg. Who other than a certain red-headed ginger that they all hated to trip her causing Clem to crash and burn and having to pay the price with a broken leg. It would have been fine if not for the doctors having under-compensated the risk of infection leading them to have to amputate the leg. It left Clem to feel more broken than she's felt in a long time. How do you just move on from something like that? And what would everyone else think about it?

Violet didn't even spare her leg a second glace instead focusing on the sight of Clem's face. The almost ashamed look her eyes held as she stared back at Violet. Tears threatening to spill across her already damp face, the light glinting off the tear-stained streaks that had been left behind.

Violet could see Clem's body start to tremble, the girl turning away from her gaze. Violet didn't care if Clem thought she shouldn't see her like this. She sat up and reached out a hand pulling Clem into a hug.

The blonde wrapped her arms around Clem's neck protectively. She felt Clem grip her shirt tightly burying her face into Violet's shoulder as she cried, tears soaking into the cotton fabric of her red t-shirt. "You're okay, we're okay. I'm here babe." Violet soothed. "Shh, it's okay. I'm here." She hugged her tighter not wanting to let go, which she was pretty sure Clem didn't want to either. "It's okay, Clem. You're safe. I'm not leaving." Violet squeezed her eyes shut. "Not ever again."

"I-I'm sorry I pushed you a-away." Clem sobbed into her shirt. She didn't know why she thought Violet wouldn't understand in the first place. God how she had missed this. It had been near torture being away for so long, yet she had still hesitated to open the door. But feeling this now, she needed it more than ever. Once more Violet had gotten her to open the door not only to her bedroom but also to her heart.

"It's okay. I'm here now..." Violet reassured her, just glad that she finally had the most important person in her life back in her arms. "...and I'll never leave you again."
