Tori/Blake Fic
Tori was sitting on the beach watching the fiery red sun set into the ocean. The low cool breeze was blowing against her as she dug her toes into the sands. She held herknees against her chest and her arms wrapped around them. She continued to stare out into the ocean, listening to the soft waves crash upon the beach. It was hours after graduation and she was finally enjoying some peace. She reflected on all the great adventures she had with her friends. She couldn't help but smile and laugh a bit. Her friends, she loved them so much. She's been through so much with them. Through thick and thin. Shane, Dustin, Cam, Hunter and Blake. She closed her eyes as she thought of Blake. Her smile faded away, replacing a dreaded frown. She sighed deeply as she opened them again and stood up. She brushed the sand off her blue tank top and jeans and brushed her hair out of her face. Blake was leaving tonight and she had to say goodbye. She turned and slowly walked towards her baby blue van. It pained her to have these feelings for him and never once told him. She opened the van and climbed inside, closing the door behind her. She took out her keys and started up the engine. She looked at her watch, she had to get to the airport before he left. She drove down the road and passed Storm Chargers on her way to the airport. Tori sighed once more, as she couldn't help but recall the first time she met him. The moment she saw him, a strange feeling had occurred over her. To this day, she still had that feeling. Only now, she understood it. She continued onwards, passing the tracks. More memories filled her head. Knowing that this may be the last time she will see him for a long time, her eyes began to water. She held back her tears as best she could, picking up the speed to get to her destination. Tori turned the corner and past the woods they entered to get to the Wind Academy. The more she thought about the past, the more she regretted not telling him anything. She slammed on the gas and went flying towards the air port. She swerved into the parking lot and parked her car. She got out and started running as fast as she could. Like a wolf in the wind, she scurried inside. Pushing past people to get to where Blake had to board. Tori squeezed her way through and spotted Blake and the gang all talking. Tears were flowing down her cheek as she stood in the distant. She took a step forward, a bit hesitant. They haven't noticed her yet. She could still turn back. She closed her eyes and opened them again.
"Don't leave!" She screamed at the top of her lungs. The Navy Ranger turned his neck towards the voice. His face faulted as he dropped his luggage. The other rangers glanced at each other, speculating on what was going to happen next. She took a step forward again.
"Please don't leave!" She insisted, wiping away her tears.
Blake walked forward, "Tori.." He whispered. People turned to watch, eyes glancing back and forth between them. Tori blocked out every sound around her. She kept him in her view. She started to walk forward, picking up her speed. She then started running, jumping into him, giving him a huge hug. She buried her head into his shoulder and started cry more. Blake held her gently, stroking her hair slowly. She lifted her head and backed away a bit and wiped her face.
"Blake.." She murmured, "I should have told you this. I, I'm." She tried to find the right words.
Blake cracked a small smile, "Tori, I know." He whispered.
She looked into his eyes, trying to see what he was getting at, "If you do. Then why are you leaving?" She asked him.
He turned away, unable to look at her, "I have to follow my dreams, Tori. I feel the same way, I really do, but I."
She began breathing heavily, trying not to burst into tears again, "But what!?"
He put his hand on her face and began to caress her cheek, "I'm sorry Tori. I can't miss my plane." He responded. His tone sounded painful. He turned away and started to walk. She stood there, watching. He picked up his luggage and began walking towards the door that lead to the plane. He turned back and gave one last glance before disappearing out of sight. She continued to stare off into the distant.
"I'll be waiting." She whispered, "I'm not going anywhere."
