I watch him sleep. With everything going on, it's been a while since he has been able to sleep like this, the blanket figures over his body, rising up and down to the rhythm off his breathing. He is such an idiot.
He acts tough, and he can be a real ass sometimes, but I love him either way. I don't care, because I'M with him, not her. She isn t there to comfort or protect or argue with him, or even enjoy little moments like this. I asked to come with him, to start a new life on the Gekko, however I cannot have any doubts, because I truly my place is with this ship, with this crew...
With him.
He can be... frustrating at times, he ever made me angry more times then I can count. His stubbornness, his anger, his flaws, everything about the man should be a warning to keep away, and yet my heart softens when I'm with him and I can't be angry with him for too long, not when I'm with him.
He'll never fully understand, but as long I'm with him, we can truly carve out an existence in this world, because no matter what we face, no matter what blocks us, we can both can push through and continue to carve out our own path.
I think this is the only way that I can be.
I look out the window, and it is night time, and the darkness covers the outside except for the Gekko's lights which cuts through it easily. I will never truly understand this ship. What is it about the Gekko that draws us together? That being in it draws such warmness like pulling a thick blanket over you.
I don t even know what will happen after all of this is through Will we continue our journey on the Gekko all as a cre no family would be a better word for it, or will we all go our separate ways? I ve been traveling on this ship for so long, I don t even know if I can or ever see life beyond this ship.
But things change, and I d be na ve to think that things will never change, especially at the end.
The end, I suppose that s an unnerving though. It s like the darkness outside, as you walk through it, you are blind, and can t see where what s ahead or even behind you, and even if you have a light, you can t see what s beyond what the light shows. Even the Gekko can t light the entire way, only what its lights can shine upon.
Truthfully, it isn t best to dwell about it, focusing on what s happening now is more important, I know that the situation will become much more complicated and more dangerous, and we both mustn t focus and the future or the past, but now. And yet sometime I wonder, if it was someone else and not me,
would he be happier? Could he truly smile and laugh and be himself. I don t know, nor will I ever know the answer to that, nor do I want to.
I lay on the couch across from the bed and my eyes closes over and over until sleep almost overtakes me and I feel something being pulled over my body,
and I release it s a blanket. It s soft and warm and comforting.
I fall asleep, let my body rest. We all need it, because we don t know what s ahead, but it will be tough, maybe impossible. But as long as he s around we can achieve what we plan to do. And as long as he s around, I can be myself, I can smile and cry and get angry and be myself.
Because he is my blanket, my warmth.
Writer s Note: It s been a while since I ve actually done this, so if it doesn t make any sense, sorry. ^_^
I ve actually been (finally) watching Eureka Seven lately, and one of my favorite couples is Holland and Talho. They are so cute together and you can see why they are drawn to each other. (Well from the earlier episodes, I m not done with E7 just yet )
It s a literally a warm up (which is why it s short.) Hopefully you ll enjoy it. And yes it s probably OOC (out of character), but the best way was to go all out and just sit down and write a story. Hope you enjoyed it!
