A/N: This is something I felt like doing while my comp is fixed ( Im on my parents comp)

Anyway, I dont own eragon or This song.

This is a out of the blue version of the Menoa tree scene in Eldest.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Eragon sat under the Menoa pondering over his change. 'How strange... Im even more like my name sake the ever.' As he examined himself, he couldnt help but glance at his companion.

Arya seemed to be lost in her own thoughts as he stared. 'She is so close, and yet so far.' She turned towards him just as he looked away, " Eragon?" She said quietly, " May I ask you something?"

" Of course, Arya Svit-Kona, what is it?"

" Do you like the changes the dragons gave you?"

Eragon turned away, looking towards the sky, "I...I'm not completely sure yet... I can fight now of course, but..."

"You regret that you no longer look like your kin?"

Eragon nodded looking up once more 'And that I cant have you...' He thought with a inward sigh.

"Is something wrong Eragon, you are concerned with something?" Arya asked gently.

'Being near you.' He thought. "No Im fine. If you'll excuse me Svit-Kona." He said with a bow. He turned around and walked away from the tree and his love. 'I need to get out of here' He walked for a few hours blocking his thoughts from all, including Saphira.

"Hmmm... Its nice... To get away from everything once in awhile." He thought of everything that happend up until now. 'And to think, not long ago I was a farmer, plowing in my uncles feilds.' He stopped walking at a stream in the middle of a grove.

He felt a tear roll down his cheek. "Arya... you call this a 'Childs crush' yet why am I affected so much? What is this?"

He sat on a rock and began to hum a melody from his childhood, and began to sing.

"If your not the one then why does my soulf feel glad today"
"If your not the one then why does my hand fit yours this way"
"If you are not mine then why does your heart my calls"
Eragon swayed with his own voice and continued.

"If you you are not mine would i have the strength to stand at all"
"I dont know what the future brings,but i know your here with me now"
"We'll make it through and i hope you are the one i share my life with"
While he sang, a lone figure approached and leaned on a tree.

"I dont wanna run away but i cant take it i dont understand"
"If i'm not made for you then why does my heart tell me that i am"
"Is there anyway that i can stay in your arms"
"If i dont need you then why am i crying on my bed"
"If i dont need you then why does your name resound in my head"
"If your not for me then why does this distance name my life"
"If your not for me then why do i dream of you as my wife"
"I dont know why your so far away but i know this much is true"
"We'll make it through and i hope you are the one i share my life with"
"And i wish that you could be the one i die with"
"And i pray that your the one i build my home with I hope i love you all my life"
Eragon paused, senseing the new presence. then continued.

"Couse i miss you body and soul so stroung that it takes my breath away"
"And i breath you into my heart and i pray for the strenghth to stand today"
"Couse i love you weither its wrong or right and though i cant be with you tonight"
A pair of arms encircled his neck and Eragon felt water against his neck. he put a hand on one of the arms.

"And though my heart is by your side"

Eragon turned around as he stopped singing and embraced Arya. "Sorry."

"No. I'm sorry Eragon." She whispered. She tiptoed and he responded.

The forest was calm, and at ease.
