A/N Why hello lovely readers! I decided to write something Tiola based when he's 'asleep' since I kind of missed that (after I ended 'New Worlds Apart'). Anyway, I know it's short but oh well! Here...

Please let me know what you think...

Missing Halves

I miss him.

I miss his smile.

I miss his voice.

I miss his noise.

I miss his eyes.

I miss him.

Every day I wait for him to wake up but he never does. I sit by his bed, I wait by the tent, I cry at home. It's all too much. I thought he'd have woken up by now and I just feel so utterly lonely since he hasn't. I mean, yes I have my old settler friends and yes I have Ben but they're no Todd.

There's only one Todd.

The Sky (or 1017) killed him. And maybe he's not actually dead (yet) but he is close to it and it killed his spirit. He killed everything that was Todd so in my eyes, he killed Todd. Everyone speaks of the sorrow he feels and the remorse for his actions but I don't care. I will never care either.

He can visit every day.

He can mope around and apologise to me.

He can starve himself.

He can die

But I won't forgive him ever. And he knows because even though I don't have any noise to tell him so, he just knows, you can see it in those empty eyes of his.

If I had to give you one good thing about this, then I'd say that I think I understand myself a little better. I never knew how much I needed Todd or even really cared. I suppose we were always too busy running to stop and consider things as unessential as feelings. I see him when I close my eyes and maybe one day I'll understand why fully, but for now I just know that it means something. I see him when I fall asleep but never to touch and never to keep, as much as a wonderful dream it would make.

I know he'll wake up again and it'll be magic. We're two halves that shouldn't be halves at all; we should be whole! That's why there was always those moments when we knew, somewhere deep down, that we needed one-and-other. Those two little halves will be reunited like earth and sky. Sometimes it seems like they're apart but the reality is, they never leave each other. Neither would exist without reality of the other, as if they were made for each other.

So each day I'll wait and wait. The Sky tore my earth from me and I need him. Someday he'll wake up and then it'll just work no awkwardness or heartache because we're meant to be. He can't kill and that's ok. He can't read and that's just fine. He can't be a man no matter how much he likes to pretend and I like that. He can't leave me and I can't judge him for that because I can't leave him either. So here I wait.

Day and Night.

Finally I understand what love is.

You only really know what love is when you lose the one you love.

And I let him go.
