A small story. Something that I had to write... I don't normally write at all. I usually just draw. However; tonight I wanted to. I was feeling down lately.. I don't know.

No flamers please and no reviews, if any, make them nice. Thank you.

Pairing: Small hint of TerraDes

Terra and Ventus belong to their respective owner, Tetsuya Nomura and Kingdom Hearts: Birth by Sleep. Des Heican is of my own creation and will not be used anywhere else without written permission. Thank you.

I never thought that the day would come. I had always thought that we would be together. Always. Coming to my new home world was amazing, yes. However; great things never last forever. Even the greatest things..

"Don't worry." he said. "I'll be fine." he said. Oh yeah? Where are you now? The darkness. The pitch black darkness.. Why did you do that, Terra ...? W H Y . . . ?

I snapped my eyes open. Panting and gripping the sheets. Afraid. Afraid to move. ..'Was it.. a-a dream?" I ask myself. No. It was to real. I sit up in bed, rubbing my eyes, and look over out my window. The sky was getting lighter, a navy blue and the stars were starting to disappear. Maybe it was..? I look back at the covers and shiver. Winter is almost here...

I get up and grab my slippers before slipping out of my room. I top-toe past Master's room, trying to be as quiet as possible, and move into the living room. I sigh and notice the fire dimming and a familiar figure on the couch.

Ventus

I smile and move over to the couch, covering him up and tucking him in. I shake my head and turn around; only to bump into something. I jump and become startled, thinking its the Master. However; I look up, sighing.

"...Terra."

"Hm..." he smiles and rubs his eyes. Silly. "What are you..." he yawns. "...What are you doing up so early?" he asks.

I smile and look away blushing. "I was just.. awoken by a.. dream..." My dream then settled in. Terra. No. I clenched my teeth. Damn it. I feel him staring at me.

"I'll.. I'll go back to bed, alright? Ven .. fell asleep I guess." I said, looking over at him; smiling. He chuckled and patted my head.

"That's a good idea. We have training bright and ea-"

"Terra..."

"...hm..?"

Why did I open my mouth now..? I take a deep breath and look up at him, trying my best to look serious. "You're...You're not planning on leaving are you?" I ask.

His face twists into a question, his eyebrows bent, a frown. Please don't be mad. Please please please...

"... why would you think that?" he asks. I let out a sigh of relief.

"... ah.. I was just worried. I..."

He chuckles and leads me to my room, his hand around my waist. I blush but continue to tell him of my dream. Every. Detail. I would soon regret it in the morning …

A blush had spread across his cheeks as he settles me down into bed.

"Ah... Des. Don't worry. I'm not going anywhere. Never." he says, trying to reassure me.

…. I smile. "I'm... I'm glad."
