This is a little story I wrote for my best friend as a birthday present! I just plopped into my mind! Hope you like it!^.^



Because you loved me

by Miaka

I don`t now when it happened, I just know that it did! When I first realized it, I was shocked, to say the least.

Falling for your best friend isn`t something too unusual one would say, but if your best friend is of the same gender it would make some difference, wouldn`t it?

So I kept my feelings deep inside of me, smiling at you, like always not showing any affection towards you. I must have act strangely, becauce sometimes I could see you watching me intensly having a concerned look in your eyes.

But you never asked me, so I could pretend everything was allright.

But it wasn`t.

When I was alone at night this empty feeling came into my heart, because I couldn`t take you in my arms, telling you the truth about my feelings. My heart longed for your love more than anything, my mind screaming, that you could never be mine.

I can`t remember I had a night where I didn`t cry myself to sleep. Not even a healthy sleep for you were always part of my dreams.

The dreams were always the same, and I couldn`t understand them then.

"I love you..." my lips went dry, as I confessed my love for

him.

"Thanx, but no....I don`t want someone, who`s going to

dissapear!"

Those dreams ended always the same. I - waking up screaming, tears streaming down my face.

I never understood the meaning of those dreams, until that fateful day.

**************************************

"If it keeps up like this you will vanish! But I won`t let you!!"

Sitting right next to me, To-ya softly touches my cheek, smiling gently at me.

"I know you´re not human."

My eyes widen, a strange pain shooting through my body. I didn`t understand at all.

"Don`t be afraid....you don`t have to hide from me." There`s so much emotion in his warm choclate eyes, and one of those was the special one, I hoped seeing for so long...Love...love for me.

I suddenly feel how my body changes, but I can still see To-ya sitting in front of me.

Suddenly someone takes over my mind, but I`m still able to follow the conversation.

My eyes widen again...even more, as I see, what To-ya is going to give up...just to save me...I feel like stopping him any moment, but then...do I really want to dissappear? Do I want to vanish from this life, not being able to tell To-ya how I feel, like he is showing me now? I´ve been so stupid all the time, thinking that he would leave me, if I told him what I felt for him.

To-ya would never leave me, and doesn`t want me to leave...And he is showing his love in the most special way, a person can show one`s love for somebody.

I´m lost in his power, and the next thing I remember is sitting in front of a bed, watching To-ya sleep peacefully.

Tears start trickling down my face, as I look at him, thanking him silently for the sacrifice he made for me.

"I love you...To-ya..." I whisper, lowering my head towards his face, and doing what I wanted most of all, since forever - or so it seemed to me.

I kiss him.

Just a light brush over his soft lips, trying to give back some of the power he gave me. I don`t mean, the magical powers...no I mean the love, I got from him, since we met.

**********************************

I´m so thankful for what you gave to me over the years, and I don`t know, if I ever be able to give nearly this much in return.

I always felt incomlete before I met you, not good enough for anyone to love me...

...but that changed with your appearance in my life.

Now I´m a complete person, really enjoying everyday of my life and I finally know, what true happiness is...

...and everything because of you...

...because you loved me.
