I walked over to the ebony piano Soul bought and placed my hand over the ivory keys and played a few notes. I somehow found myself sitting on the ebony stool that was cushioned in lush velvet; I tucked away my black ballroom dress and began to play a few more notes. Soul taught me to play a little so I reviewed his lessons in my head and held my tears back and the thought of him being here with me. I played a soft tune that I made up and sang a little.

When somebody loved me,
everything was beautiful.
Every hour we spent together,
lives within my heart.

And when he was sad,
I was there to dry his tears...

And when he was happy,
so was I...

When he~e lo~oved me~e...

I knew I was crying, but somehow it didn't show in my voice. I closed my eyes not wanting to remember all those words he said to me; all that time I spent with him throughout the years winter to spring, summer to fall. I'll never forget any of the memories we shared; but I doubt he'd say the same thing.

Through the summer and the fall,
we had each other that was all...

Just he and I together...
Like it was meant to be...

After every body's constant nagging on how we were meant for each other; and my constant yelling on how I'd be just another memory to him. For the first time ever; this was the first time I didn't want to be right. I stuck with him thick and thin weather it was I who messed up with my 'up-tight' attitude or him who just didn't care; I stayed perfectly loyal, but apparently his loyalty stood on a timer.

And when he was lonely,
I was there to comfort him.

And I knew that...
He lo~oved me~...

It was then at our third year of Shibusion when you just gave up hope on me turning you into a death scythe; you stayed by my side, but didn't try as hard as you used too. Like I said your loyalty was like a timer, and I never really knew when you were going to give up.

So the years went by,
I stayed the same.

But he began to drift away,
I was left alone...

I guess that time came during our training schedule when you said I could never make you into a death scythe and that we should find new partners. You left me abandoned at the training field lost and abandoned without a partner loyal to count on; but I guess you were never one to start with.

Stein watched the whole thing and said it's best to find a new partner before he comes back begging. The way he said it sounded like I was replacing a toy; it made my stomach churn. I'd wait until you came crawling back asking for forgiveness saying you made a horrible mistake...

But you never did...

Still I waited for the day,
when he would say...

I~ wi~ll al~ways love you...

During that week you moved out and I was left alone in, what used to be, our apartment. I couldn't stand it their anymore; so I moved in with Liz, Patty, and Kid who were my new shoulders to cry on. I still haven't found a partner yet and neither have you. Lord Death assigned you and I to this mission in Argentina saying we need to exterminate a Kishen. Once we did you said to me "Good job." giving me a small hug and a breath taking smile. I swore my heart did a back flip that day.

Lonely and forgotten...
Never thought he'd look my way.

He smiled at me and held me,
just like he used to do.

Like he lo~ved me,
when he lo~ved me...

I never saw you after that though; right now I'm at Kid's house while he's hosting a party for his bride to be Liz. I couldn't be happier for them, but I felt a tinge of jealousy for them though. They have their happy ending, but I'm sitting here on a piano bench while you're out with a new miester on dangerous missions like you and I used to. My eyes are closed as the tears I cry everyday fall into the black dress Liz had tried so hard to find; I smiled knowing you used to have faith in me. Did you find a new miester? Of course you did, you're probably with them right now. Will you ever get married? I have no idea what-so-ever, but knowing you battening down the hatches is out of the question. But even though you've moved on without me...

When somebody loved me,
everything was beautiful...

Every hour we spent together,
lives within my heart

When he~ lo~ved me~e...

I will always treasure the time we spent together.

This brought me to tears, I hate writing anti SoMa, but this was a constant request from someone; I have to write some SoMa and FAST!

The song is When Somebody Loved Me by Sarah McLachlan it's in the toy story movie and is originally sang When SHE loved me, but I prefer this version.
