Disclaimer: Once upon a time there was a girl who wrote fanfiction and didn't own the rights to anything nor did she ever make any money (though it would be nice if she did). The end.
A/n: Written rather on the fly, shortly after watching the latest episode, "I Will Follow You Into the Dark". Inspired by the adorable yet small George and Izzie scenes. George's POV, and can be taken as being simply about their awesome friendship or about the amazing friendshp and epic love. ;)
I'm here.
I'm still here. I've been keeping my distance because you're with that other guy. But I'm here, I've always been here, and I always will be.
You can talk to me. You can talk to me like you used to. I'll listen. I want to listen. I want to be there for you. I want to be there for you like I used to be, like you used to be for me.
You won't be able to get rid of me, you know. I'm here for good. I may not have been right by your side this whole time, but that doesn't mean I haven't noticed what's been going on. I've noticed everything. I've kept my distance because that other guy should be the one taking care of you and noticing things. The one time I tried to get closer and intervene, I was shoved away. So I keep on keeping my distance, but I'll come close the moment you say I can.
I'm sure I know what's going on. You won't tell me, not yet. But I know. I can see it in your eyes and unlike the others, I can read between the lines and see all the signs. I know what's happening to you. I hate it. I hate that it's you, because you're wonderful and nothing bad should ever happen to you.
And I'm still here. I'm waiting. I'm patient. I'll listen as soon as your ready to talk. I'll hear you as soon as you call out for me. I'll be there as soon as you want me to be. I'm right here, I'm not going anywhere.
Because I care. I still care. I've always cared. And I'm not going anywhere.
I'm here.
