I stared at the electric blue sky that somehow resembled the ample depths of the oceans. I could feel the wind blowing through my short golden hair, bringing along with it fallen petals of scarlets.
The amorphous gray clouds lazily swam on the firmament, like what I would do if I were in the ocean.
"You okay?" A masculine voice interrupted me from my daydreaming.
My hands are searching for you
My arms are outstretched towards you
"Yeah...I'm fine." I replied quite monotonously. /God, who is this guy?!/ I miserably thought.
I feel you on my fingertips
My tongue dances behind my lips for you
Somehow I felt the man read my mind and thought to torment me. What he did next was lay down next to me. I stared at the sky a little bit longer before I allow my eyes to gaze over his face.
He had jet black hair that seemed obsidian. Sunglasses covered his eyes but I could still see the longitudinal scar on his right eye.
This fire runs in through my being
Burning I'm not used to seeing you
"Who're you?" I found myself asking. the man simply nodded and stood up.
I'm alive, I'm alive
"Very ironic, I was going to question you that?" I heard him speak.
He soon took of his eye covering and I saw how LONG his cut was.
I can feel you all around me
Thickening the air I'm breathing
"What happened to your face?" I asked, smiling. I was trying to be friendly.
Holding on to what I'm feeling
But somehow it was a mistake.
Savoring this heart that's healing
"None of your business!" He said, coldly and harsh.
My hands float up above me
And you whisper you love me
"Oh..sorry." My voice cracked. /What the?! I'm BREAKING?!/ Reality is stupid.
And I begin to fade Into our secret place
"Its fine, hey don't cry." He said, in a rather warm and loving voice. Like silk grazing your skin.
The music makes me sway T
he angels singing say we are alone with you
I am alone and they are too with you
I'm alive, I'm alive
"Its nothing. I'm fine." I spoke in a very anomalous tone. Like I ate a rock and choking to death.
I can feel you all around me
Thickening the air I'm breathing
Holding on to what I'm feeling
Savoring this heart that's healing
"I'm Auron. Pleasure to meet you." He smiled a smile that made me feel faint. /Geez, Am I THAT corny?/
I can feel you all around me
Thickening the air I'm breathing
Holding on to what I'm feeling
Savoring this heart that's healing
"Nice to meet you. Rikku here." I held a hand out to him. he took it and shook it. His grasp was strong and very welcoming, similar to a teddy bear or some other stuffed toy. Huggable.
And so I cry
The light is white
And I see you
I stood up and felt the wind pick up. I saw his black hair dancing with the wind. Like waltz.
I'm alive, I'm alive, I'm alive
I can feel you all around me
Thickening the air
I'm breathing
Holding on to what
I'm feeling
Savoring this heart that's healing
The next thing I knew, I saw little balls of effervescing apricot. Somehow they reminded me of pyreflies.
Take my hand I give it to you
Now you own me
All I am
"Wow, they're you do this?" My tone was inquisitive. Very similar to a child asking his father where babies come from.
You said you would never leave me
I believe you I
believe
"I don't know. I could have. I could have not." He said, smiling again. This time, I felt myself smiling with him. His eyes nor his voice held the animosity that once enveloped him earlier.
I can feel you all around me
Thickening the air I'm breathing
Holding on to what I'm feeling
Savoring this heart that's healed
"Then, let's cherish this moment. Its wonderful in every way." And by that, I felt one of the small globes caressing my cheek.
I stared at him and he was gazing at the same cheek in a way that's called...longingly? Suddenly, the wind picked up again. This time his hair swayed with it and I felt staring at his face for eternity a REALLY GOOD WISH.
