Chapter 1
It was a cold night. She was walking by herself. Across the hill, I can see her beautiful figure, standing there. Everyone was sleeping. We just came back from fighting the l'cie. Lightning, Snow, Fang, Sazh, Vanille, and me, Hope.
"How do I go up to her without being nervous?"
I thought to myself over and over. She was right there. Right in front of me, on the hill. She looked depressed.
"Here I go...I'm not chickening out this time...Vanille!" I gave out a sharp cry.
"Hope?" she jumped. "Oh, Hope! You startled me, what are you doing so late at night?" she looked puzzled.
"I can ask you the same. I guess i'm just nervous about tomorrows fight against more l'cie. What's your reason?"
"Well I guess you can say the same," she chuckled. "It's such a beautiful night. Don't you wish...oh nevermind."
Hope looked confused. He wanted her to go on. "Tell me, it shouldn't be that embarrassing." he dazed into her green, sparkling eyes.
As she refused to speak again, he let go of the topic. Vanille later then suggested that they should sleep for tomorrow's fight. He agreed, but his body would refuse his orders to sleep, so he stood there all night. He didn't know if she liked him. He felt sharp pain, him wanting to know more. He was only fifteen. What does a fifteen year old boy have to know? She was only a year older. Hope never thought of it being awkward for him liking her. He had this connection that he did not want to ever let go. He loved the feeling of this bond.
"Only until the next day, when we win...I'll find out for sure if she likes me. Whatever it takes..."
