Rina: After a long hiatus, I'm back. For those who read "Tales of Symphonia" I'm sorry, I'm probably going to delete that one. I can look at it all day, and all ideas I had for it… are gone. I think the story died last year, when a friendship I once had died… Sorry. –sweat drop- Moving on… you may ask why I haven't written anything at all… There is NO REASON to that. So, we'll just blame it all on me being a lazy bum. Another note: I had to delete this, for some reason said that it didn't exist or something.. yeah...
Disclaimer: I do not own Tales of Symphonia.
I stared at my doctor in shock as he told me why I hadn't had a period in over three months. I sputtered a bit, and looked at my stomach.
"How…?" I asked timidly, feeling fear grow deep down in my stomach. "I've… I'm a virgin!" The words just barely crawled out of my throat before I started to sob.
"I don't WANT to be a new age mom! I want… I want to have a loving husband, who will care for OUR child!" I sobbed some more as the doctor patted my back.
"Come back in a month, and we'll see if you want… to keep it." He told me quietly, and calmly.
"Keep… it?"
"Abortion…" The doctor swallowed, "Abortion IS an option, my dear."
"Option…"
"Go home, your in shock…"
I nodded, and pushed myself out of the vinyl chair.
"I will come back in one month." I nodded again, and left his office.
I walked back to my old home quickly, looking at the recently re-constructed Ozette. When I arrived home, I looked in to my mailbox.
"Junk, junk, birthday card," I muttered absent-mindedly as I flipped threw my mail. "Bills, scam, letter from Lloyd… LETTER FROM LLOYD?!" I ripped open the letter, frantic to hear from my old friend.
((Please note, Lloyd is… missing a few hamsters up there, so his letter will have a FEW spelling mistakes, not too many because it HAS been ten years…))
Deer Pre… Pressa… Pesa…
Deer Pre, I hate to admit it, but you've been in my thoughts lately. I wish you would move here, near me. I miss you. We miss you. Well the main reason why I wrote to you is because, we are having a reunion in two weeks! It's going to be in Altamira!
How have you been? It's been ten years since we revived the great Ygderasil tree. Eight years since we went around destroying ex-spheres. Did you keep yours? It felt odd without it, didn't it?
Hope you can make it,
Lloyd
I laughed at the letter, happy that I had been invited to the reunion. How easy it would be just to forget, and to have fun without me, Presea, the "mature kid". I sighed, and mentally slapped myself for acting so pessimistic.
PS: Please wright back to me, saying you can come.
"I should respond to the letter like he asked…"
I stepped inside, and looked for a pen and paper. After finding some, I sat down at the desk and began to think.
Dear Lloyd, Love from,
It HAS been a long time. I did keep my ex-sphere… just in case. The reunion you talked about… I wouldn't miss it for the world. Count me in.
Presea
I re-read my letter, and noticed how to the point it was. Although, that is just the way I am, to the point. I sighed and added a post-script, that was out of character, but should make him happy.
P.S: I miss you too! I AM thinking of moving closer to you… but I think YOU should be moving closer to ME!
Smiling, I looked for an envelope, and sealed my letter inside. I would have to start packing tomorrow, but for now, I had to go mail the letter.
I slipped on some comfy shoes (the ones I had on before were killing my feet.) and started my search for a mailbox. I found one, eventually, by an equipment shop. My heart filled with the feeling of familiarly.
When I returned home, I was exhausted. I returned all of my things to their proper spots. Walking into my room, I laid down on the bed, and feel asleep.
My dreams were unpleasant, a nightmare to be exact. Three months ago, I had been foolish enough to be attacked in an alley way. He drugged me, and did SOMETHING to me. When I woke up, he ran off quickly, for I had threatened to kill him before he slipped a needle into my neck. I walked home quickly, sobbing, and had a shower, wanting to get rid of the feeling of disgust.
That was the day I started thinking of Lloyd, and how when I was with him… I never felt lonely, scared, or threatened.
The weeks flew by quickly; I packed for the reunion, and shared quite a few letters with Lloyd. During that time, I decided that I WOULD move to Iselia, where Lloyd was now a permanent inhabitant. I asked him to keep an eye out for a house, which would have to hold two or more, for me. He said he would, and asked why I would need a house for two? I couldn't bring myself to telling him that I had been raped, and was now pregnant. I felt like he wouldn't love me, but then I remembered that he never did love me.
We arranged that Lloyd would come with transportation, to pick me up. Maybe when I saw him face to face, I would be able to tell him… I wonder how he aged… Would he be even more handsome? Would his eyes, that used to hold so much life in them, be dead to the world? I wondered how I aged.
The day soon arrived, and I fretted. I looked into a mirror, and saw… me. I had the same dead blue eyes, which lost all trust when Vharley had given me that… thing. It didn't even deserve a name. My hair was the same too, just longer, and not in the childish pigtails I once wore. I sighed with relief, I wasn't different at all.
A knock on my door took me out of my trance. I hurried to the door, to be greeted by Lloyd's smiling face.
"Lloyd!" I couldn't help but reach out and hug him.
"Hey Presea!" He wrapped his arms around me, happy to see me too.
I burst into tears.
"Pr…Presea!" Lloyd rubbed my back, looking down at me concerned. "Why… why are you crying?"
Oh how I wish I could have told him why I was crying, but even I didn't know.
"Oh Lloyd!" I managed to mumble, burying my head into his shoulder, "It's horrible! I… I got… raped… I… was foolish, and let my guard down…. And now I don't know what to do!"
"Presea…" He laid his head down on mine, "It'll be okay… Please stop crying. I found you a house, just like you asked me to. I bought it for you, and don't you DARE pay me back. We'll move you in as soon as the reunion is over."
"I'm forever in your debt…" I mumbled, pulling away from him and wiping away my tears. "Shall we go?"
"Yes, we shall." He took my hand, and lead me to a rehaird((sp?)).
Rina: I wanted this to be a one shot… but… meh, it was making me sad. XD
Onto serious notes… If you ever get raped… DO NOT, I repeat DO NOT, act like Presea. Go IMEDITALY to your police office, and report it.
I think that's all I had to say… Oh yeah… anything past the dream part, was written on the spot.
