OM: I'm not really sure how I thought of writing this. It just appeared in head and started writing. I'm planning to have a lot of things going on at once. Now if Kratos would do the disclaimer for me.

Kratos: Lazy writer…

OM: You're so mean to me! Why?

Kratos: Because you're lazy!

OM: Do your job before you get fired

Kratos:sigh Fine. Ocarina Master does not own Namco or Tales of Symphonia, but she does own the idea and plots of this story.

OM: Thank you Kratos! Now on with the story. Please enjoy!

Ringing Bells

"Lloyd wake up!" There was a short pause. "Wake Up!" Lloyd opened his eyes to see his dad, Dirk, "What?" he asked tiredly.

"Don't yer remember?" Dirk questioned.

Lloyd gave a questioned look. Dirk sighed and replied "Yer dad Kratos, is coming back from Derris Khralan to visit you."

Lloyd jumped out of bed. "Oh yeah!" and ran to the balcony and looked at the sky. It was turning a light shade of purple. Showing that Kratos was slowly but surely, coming.

After Lloyd finished breakfast he decided to go to Iselia to visit Colette. Raine and Genis are at Altessa's house, checking on his health.

Because the world was one, they didn't have to go through the air space on the Rheairds, which made travel easier.

Lloyd ran up to his room and jammed a small box into his pocket.

"Bye Dad!" he yelled as he exited the house.

A faint "bye" was heard from Dirk has Lloyd rode off on Noishe.

"Hello, Sir Lloyd." Said a guard at the entrance of Iselia.

"Hello." Lloyd replied as he dismounted from Noishe.

He made his way to Colette's house, and knocked on the door.

Frank opened the door. "Well, hello there Lloyd what brings you here?"

"Colette here?"

"Yeah, come on in and sit, I'm call her down."

"Thanks, but I'll go to her."

"Okay."

Lloyd walked up the stairs towards Colette's room.

"Knock, knock." Lloyd waited for a second. He opened the door. "Hey Colette."

Colette was in a slinky white and blue dress. "Hey Lloyd."

"You want to go somewhere?" Lloyd asked as he walked towards Colette and hugged her.

She smiled." Sure Lloyd lets go."

They walked down the stairs and said good-bye to Frank and Phaidra.

"How 'bout we go to Altamira? And go swimming?"

"Ok." She smiled.

They reached the entrance and Noishe sat there waiting.

"Good-bye Sir Lloyd and Miss Colette."

"Bye" they said in unison.

They rode to the Sylvarant Base and picked up two Rheairds, and went to Altamira.

"Wow, it's so beautiful!" Colette exclaimed.

They walked into the hotel and checked in, Lloyd made future registrations.

The door opened to the 5th floor suite.

Lloyd went over to the balcony, which looked over the beach.

Arms went around his waist and hugged him. Colette. He turned and moved the hair out of her face and smiled.

He leaned in and kissed her on the lips.

He broke away. "Have something to ask you, Colette."

He bent down onto his knee. Grabbed the box out of his pocket and opened it.

"Will you marry me?"

OM: Sorry must stop it here. Next chapter will be up soon.
