He Knows

By: KokoroOfAnime

Everyday it's the same; it's just another day. Everything remains unchanged.

These walls, which shelter this place away from the world, this pond, in which flower petals float carelessly, even the hole in the ceiling, that he'd fallen through so long ago.

In a way, he's the same as well. But in others, he's changed more than thought possible.

He's happier, and she can tell.

She still smiles all the time, even though her time has long passed. She talks to him occasionally, though sometimes she's unable to connect. But, she's always there. Always.

And he knows.

Everyone else thinks he's moved on, and in a way he has. In others, he's still right there beside her, still feeling the same way, despite the years that have passed.

They think he's alone. They're wrong.

He's never alone. Never.

He talks to her. Now everyone thinks he's lost it.

But she's listening intently, all the while smiling.

He knows.

Sometimes he smiles, and she's always there to see it, because he always smiles for her.

The bright white lights that follow her everywhere she goes have become just as familiar as her face. White and yellow flowers have become his favorites, because they remind him of her.

But he really doesn't need any reminders.

She never left him.

And he knows it.

This is my first FFVII fic, even though it's post-AC. I hope you enjoyed it! Review and tell what you think! Ja! -.
