This is my first time writing a fanfic! I was inspired to write one after I read so many wonderful fanfics…
This is a short story set after Day of Doom. Amy and Ian are both 17, Dan is 14, and Natalie, sadly, did not survive the electrocution.
There is some OOCness. I am not the best writer, so bear with me. There will be a bit of songfic intertwined in this :) There will be different POV in the story but it's fairly obvious who it is, so I will not say it in the story.
Be prepared for a bit of fluff. So sorry if you hate that.
I (sadly) do not own the 39 clues. And certainly do not own Ian Kabra, as much as I would like to.
Enjoy!
Chapter 1
Disclaimers: I do not own the 39 Clues.
He's done it again.
He watched in despair as the last wisp of fiery red hair disappeared around the corner. Those brilliant jade orbs flashed in his mind again.
Why? He thought. Why is it that she hates me so much? Why isn't there a way to apologize to her without upsetting her so much? Why wouldn't she just listen?
The remains of her lavender-vanilla scent linger in the air. Without second thoughts, he ran after her.
Tears streaked down her cheeks. She ran blindly into a small café to her left.
OOF!
"Amy!"
She looked up. Sinead Starling's reddish mane almost glowed like an orange sea underneath the lights. The girl wrapped her arms around her mess of a friend. She led her to a small table near the corner, with a small window overlooking the lush green field of Attleboro's city park.
"I'm okay. Just h-here to g-g-grab a small snack," Amy chokes out defensively after Sinead tries to protest.
"Want to talk about it?"
"No, not really."
"I bet you in the name of Katherine Cahill that it was the Lucian bastard." Sinead sneered.
Amy felt her eyes water again, but couldn't help but stifle a small laugh without success. It came out more like a squeak.
"You know me so well," Amy said.
Sinead rolled her eyes, but then gave her best friend an understanding squeeze on the hand.
"I'll be right back. Care for some hot chocolate?"
"Y-yes please."
You and me
We used to be together
Everyday, together, always
He was there for me in the beginning. In the library, on the same team and helping me, and saving me form Isabel's cruel ways once.
I really feel
That I'm losing my best friend
I can't believe
This could be the end
He is starting to slip away after that. He left me in a cave to die. Almost killed me when has fed me to the sharks. But those longing gazes, him holding my hand-was that all a joke?
It looks as though you're letting go
And if it's real
Well I don't want to know
Maybe he really is abandoning me. Maybe those are all lies but are they? I don't' know.
Don't Speak
I know just what you're saying
So please stop explaining
Don't tell me 'cause it hurts
Stop it. He can't make up for what happened in Korea. I know he is trying to apologize, but these efforts are futile. It's not enough. A simple sorry is not going to mend my heart. Please stop, it hurts too much.
Don't Speak
I know what you're thinking
I don't need your reasons
Don't tell me 'cause it hurts
I know you are trying to apologize for that. I cannot trust your reasons, I can't believe them. I gave you many chances, but it's too late. You've hurt me over and over, through and through.
Our memories
Well, they can be inviting
But some are altogether
Mighty frightening
As we both die, both you and I
With my head in my hands
I sit and cry
Don't remind me of what happened. I still have nightmares about the clue hunt. The fear, the essence will never go away. Sometimes, it's too much. I can't carry all the weight in my shoulders, alone.
Don't speak
I know just what you're thinking
So please stop explaining
Don't tell me 'cause it hurts (no, no, no)
I try to take in all those empty words. But they cannot mend my already broken, shattered heart.
Don't speak
I don't need your reasons
Don't tell me 'cause it hurts,
Don't tell me 'cause it hurts!
I know what you're saying
So please stop explaining
Don't speak
Don't speak
Don't speak
How was it? Please leave some reviews/comments and cc or anything I need to improve on! I would love to hear from you! I do PM, so feel free to do so.
If you were confused, the second part was A bit of songfic. Amy was waiting for Sinead and she listens to the song (can you guess what it is?). Her thoughts are in italics and the song lyrics are centered.
Don't worry, this is not a one-shot! There will be a few more chapters, but it's only going to be a short story.
Song used in the story: Don't Speak by No Doubt
I love the song, listen to it! It's great :D
