Your Presence Is Heaven For A Sinner Like Me
“And the arms of the ocean are carrying me, and all this devotion was rushing out of me. And the crashes are heaven, for a sinner like me. But the arms of the ocean delivered me.” — Florence + The Machine.
Chapter Theme Song: ‘Never Let Me Go’ by Florence + The Machine.

“Why did you choose this statement?” I ask softly.
The midday sun has now sunken lower in the sky and the air has become a lot cooler, signifying that we are slowly nearing evening. The forest is much chillier at this time of the day and the breeze is light and soothing, gently surging through the trees.
“I didn’t...” He finally responds in the same tone I had used, his expression still blank and unreadable. “I mean I did but I was drunk. I don’t know why I asked them to write that...”
I stare at him in silence.
I believe him. People do a lot of odd things when they are drunk

“Would you take the wheel if I lose control? If I’m lying here will you take me home? Could you take care of a broken soul? Will you hold me now? Oh, will you take me home?” —Jess Glynne. Chapter Theme Song: ‘Take Me Home’ by Jess Glynne. •• Blaze My dad says I am vindictive and petty but leave it to Justine Meyers to break my record. It’s not rocket science to perceive that the reason she asked Harmony to ‘showcase her talent’ is that she’s just jealous. Her trifling antics won’t erase the fact that I hadpolitelyinformed her to remove herself from my groin the other day, and it definitely won’t remove the fact that when I am bored of someone, it can never rewind. I find her envy amusing, but the fact that Harmony is standing at the front of the room with anxiety written all over her face deeply bothers me. I am starting to feel troubled that I forced her

“I ain’t no angel, I never was, but I never hurt you, it’s not my fault. You see those eggshells, they’re broken now. A million pieces strewn out across the ground.” —Birdy. Chapter Theme Song: ‘No Angel’ by Birdy. •• Harmony While the room erupts in cheers and standing ovations, I sight when Blaze swiftly gets up amidst it all, his head hung as he hastens through the translucent door. My face falls in disappointment. It seems he didn’t like it. I told him I didn’t want to want to do this and now it is official that I suck. Justine’s reaction to my performance is one of awe mixed with despise, and Mal is jerking me two big thumbs up with a wide, impressed grin on his face. I smile a little in response, but all these flattering applaudings mean nothing if the one person I was hoping would like it —hates it. And so after bowing awkwardly as if I am on some Broadway show, I quick

Chapter Theme Song: ‘There You Are’ by Zayn Malik. (^A/N: This song fits Blaze so much!! :) •• Harmony “Stay away from me then!” The words he uttered yesterday during his aggressive state have been plaguing my thoughts ever since.Did he mean them?Judging from the rage his eyes held, I am surer than not that he did. To be honest, I was wrong. I should have never run ahead and judged him without seeking out the full story first, and now I just became like everyone else. I feel like I have failed both him and myself somehow. While April showers, I get dressed in a knee-length jean skirt and a black long-sleeved top. I let my hair flo

“Is it you or are the lights getting brighter in the night?” — Grace VanderWaaal. Chapter Theme Song: ‘Ur So Beautiful’ by Grace VanderWaal. •• Harmony “Finally, the boots are here!” April beams as she enters through our dorm door, holding a beige shoebox in her hands. “Okay, come on, come on!” Yuna urges her over excitedly, and she chuckles as she scampers down to where we are seated on the bed. “Alright, here we go!” She uncovers the box, and the smell of new leather welcomes me as she lifts the black boots that are the same as hers. “Ta-da! Size six!” I am shocked that she somehow discovered my shoe size, and it is as if she has read my mind as she lets out a faint laugh. “I looked at one of your ballet flats.” She stretches the pair toward me. “This is for you Harmony.” I have no idea what to say. I tend to be quite reluctant when it comes to accepting gift

N.B: Chapter may contain mild sexual content. •• Harmony He opens the door to his room and steps aside to allow me access. I look at him hesitantly before making my way in, immediately taking a fancy to the moonlight blue and grey theme of his dwelling. Blaze’s quarter is different than the normalwet-dreamsadolescents’ room. There are no posters of half-naked ladies or former sports champions pasted on his walls, and the room is so organized and immaculate that I doubt there is even a speck of dust in sight. A king-size bed with grey sheets is sitting in the center of the room with a glass window draped with blue curtains stationed above it. The blue-sprayed dresser sitting on the left seems unbelievably expensive, and the grey wardrobe with gold knob

Harmony He eases up from the door and walks over to a grey safe at the corner of the room. He squats down and punches the lock combination in before swinging it open. The smell of liquor wafts the air as he takes out a bottle of what seems to be alcohol before setting it on the floor to close the vault back. He walks over to where his dresser is stationed and flumps down on the grey carpet there, and I am still standing weirdly in the spot he left me in like an immovable statue. He chuckles at this, shaking his head. “You should sit Harmony, are you going to stand there all night?” I twist my lips, and he pats the spot next to him, his full lips tilted in a smirk. “Join me.” I stare at him cynically, and he lifts a brow. Hesitantly, I stroll down to where he is, pulling my skirt down before lowering myself onto the rug next to him. I stretch my legs out, ensuring most of my thighs are covered appropria

“Oh, I hope some day I’ll make it out of here. Even if it takes all night or a hundred years. Need a place to hide, but I can’t find one near. Wanna feel alive, outside I can’t fight my fear.” —Billie Eilish ft. Khalid. Chapter Theme Song: 'Lovely' by Billie Eilish ft. Khalid. (A/N: Felt like adding this as a note in case anyone has forgotten. Leo is that guy in chapter one whose girlfriend had slept with Blaze. He’ll be mentioned later in the chap.) •• Harmony I was drunk. But I was still levelheaded. Therefore, I knew what I was doing. It’s just that I have no idea why I didn’t stop. I am knowledgeable enough to know that such actions should be done between two people who have feelings for each other. And Blaze hasn’t necessarily portrayed that he has any form of romantic feelings for me. He’s charming to everyone as April says, and I have witnessed it for myself, t

"Tell me that love is enough. The seas will be parted for us."—Jarryd James. Chapter Theme Song: ‘A Thousand Times’ by Jarryd James ft. Broods. Warning: Chapter contains mature sexual content. •• Harmony The silence in the car is so thick that perhaps a knife would not be strong enough to slice the void. Probably an ax or a chainsaw—but not a knife. The radio that normally makes the lack of speech less awkward is off today, and Blaze doesn’t seem to be in the mood for music at this moment. His aura screams ‘leave me alone’ and I don’t want to be a victim of his harsh tongue again. It’s not something I can handle. Dark clouds have begun to gather above, sending the indication that it’ll rain soon. The humid air on the outside and the high air conditions in the car has me freezing, and I rub my arm to warm myself up as I look over at him, deciding to try my luck
