TITLE: 1. "Forever is not for us"
CHARACTER: Hephaestion. Alexander implied.
RATING: PG
CATEGORY: Historical AU.
SUMMARY: Hephaestion speaks up his mind.
DISCLAIMER: I do not know the people involved, no harm intended; everything is product of my imagination. Alexander and Hephaestion belong to History and to each other but I would not mind sharing my life with the blue-eyed man.
WARNINGS: Angst.
My mother tongue is Spanish and I work without a beta so all the mistakes are mine.
FEEDBACK: comments are love! Any kind of them will help me to improve my writing or leave it forever.
AUTHOR'S NOTE: This idea is just a whim; I just wanted to try and write something different. It is a whole series of 29 short ficlets.
"I would give you forever if I could" I told you once when you asked me how long I would love you. However, that is no longer possible because you are gone and left me alone and behind.
You thought I wouldn't understand that being quiet for so long drove you mad; so you went in search of your dreams of glory, conquests and new lands while I stayed making things run smoothly for you and the men under your command.
"I would give you forever if I could" but now I know I can't, because you got yourself a bride, your wife, the mother of your child.
I gave you my past and present;
I gave you all I had.
The future is no longer ours
because there is no more Us.
