So I'm putting up something different, as in not my other fic. I liked to write this one. A lot. And I hope you like to read it. It's Sonic X stuff about Tails and Cosmo. It happens after the series ends.

Disclaimer: I don't own any Sonic characters from any series.

I wish she was here.

I miss Cosmo. Everyone knows that. For some reason, if feels like she took a piece of me with her, one I didn't know I had. I feel like I'm missing a tail: something I didn't know I needed until I needed it.

The memory of her smile shatters me every time I think of it. I see the sun shining, but then I realize it's not there. I neglected to treasure her smile while she was still here.

I wish she was here.

Things are getting easier now. Not like they used to be, but better than they've been in a while. I still miss her, a lot, but I can function. I haven't moved on, but I'm not frozen.

The Blue Typhoon's repairs are going well. And getting done. We'll probably need to use it again some time. I'll always remember the Blue Typhoon for her being on it. That's how it will be from now on.

I can't forget her.

Sonic seemed really concerned about me when it first happened. So one day, he took me aside and talked to me. He explained how Cosmo's still here. She's watching over me and will never leave me.

I wonder what she thinks when she sees me. I don't really know. I know she doesn't want me to be sad, though. So now I try not to be sad. I hope she likes that.

I can't forget her.

Nightmares still haunt me about that day. I still see her die in my sleep. Sometimes there's a twist, but that twist only makes it worse. And when I wake up, the images won't leave me.

Something inside tells me that I want these nightmares because she's in them. I want to see her, and although the nightmares torture me, I don't care. She makes the nightmares perfect. There, I have her.

I need her.

At first, I couldn't function. I felt too broken to move. My heart beat loudly in my ears as my thoughts surrounded her. Nothing felt right with her gone. I couldn't bear it.

I don't know why it hurt me so bad. The pain was physical, but that sort of injury hadn't been inflicted upon me. I wasn't punched, I wasn't kicked. But without her there, it felt like I had been.

I need her.

I never knew what it felt like to lose someone I cared about. Although I'm often involved in fights, no one ever dies. Until now. This is something new to me, and I don't like it.

Sweet smile, gentle eyes, and everything that was her. I need it more than I ever knew. But I guess I realized too late. Not like I could have stopped it from happening. I still wish, though, that I could have tried. I never got the chance to.

I wish she was here. I can't forget her. I need her.

I still love her.

Please read and review!
