Disclaimer: Not my charas, not my song. Ah, but still I dream.
Kye: Hate disclaimers. -x_x- Well, it's back to the basics for me today. Why come up with new (and kinda weird) pairings when you could start with the classics?
Zel: 'Cause you don't like the originals. And the only reason you're doing this is because of an overexposure to GW yaoi.
Xel: Tsk, tsk, Kye-chan. What a naughty girl you are.
Kye: /pout/ You were not asked to speak. ANYway, this is a songfic using Creed's 'Stand Here With Me'. Fun, all, and don't leave without reviewing!! I take flames, too, as long as they're about the story and not me in general.

/You always reached out to me and helped me believe/
She looked up at me, soft eyes shining so much that they nearly blinded me. I saw what I was feeling reflected in those warm depths: joy. Joy and relief.
"You did it, Zelgadis-san! You finally did it!" She hugged me fiercely. At first I pulled back, until I remembered that it wouldn't hurt her anymore.
"No," I said. "I would never have found it if it hadn't been for you. You're the only reason I had the stength to keep looking. I...couldn't let you down." She stood back, searching my eyes. My own human eyes.
"You know I meant it when I said I didn't care, don't you? That doesn't matter to me. You do."
/All those memories we share
I will cherish every one of them
The truth of it is there's a right way to live
And you showed me/
"I know," I put my hand- human hand- on her cheek, really feeling her skin for the first time. "But it would be unfair to you. You know that, don't you?" She smiled as I harmlessly turned her words back on her.
"I know."
"We know everything, don't we?" I quipped. She smiled again, a soft smile that suited her.
"Not yet," she said.
/So now you live on in the words of a song
You're a melody
You stand here with me now/
"I know more than I did, at least. Haven't you learned something?" She took the hand it hers, staring at it so intensly I was certain she was memorizing the lines.
"I have. So much, you know. If I'm not being presumptuous...I think I've grown up. And you. I've learned you. But there is more to be said on both accounts."
"You have grown up. And as for me...do you like what you've learned so far?"
"Yes. I've learned you're human. You were, even when you were...not. Your heart is good. Yes, you have fear. Yes, anger. But you are good."
"Only because you wouldn't let me give up."
/Just when fear blinded me you taught me to dream
I'll give you everything I am and still fall short of
What you've done for me
In this life that I live
I hope I can give love unselfishly/
"Ame-chan--"
"Zelgadis-san?"
"Zel. Just Zel. "
"Zel, then?"
"I..."
/I've learned the world is bigger than me
You're my daily dose of reality
You stand here with me now/
I took a deep breath. Prayed as I spoke.
"I love you." She held me tight, a contented peace on her face.
"As though there was ever any doubt?" I bit back my own smile, then wondered why I hid it. She saw my grin and returned it.
Before she kissed me.
/On and on we sing
On and on we sing this song
'Cause you stand here with me/
~owari~
A/N: so...that was it. just a bit of light fluff. But, hey, as Zel said, I've been reading some heavy GW yaoi the last few days, and I needed something light, unangsty, and without Dou-torture. Gets old, y'know? Please don't go w/out comments! I like to know what I do right and what needs improvement.
