No matter what you say about love,
I keep coming back for more,
Keep my hand in the fire,
Sooner or later, I get what I'm asking for
No matter what you say about life,
I learn every time I bleed
The truth is a stranger,
Soul is in danger
I gotta let my spirit be free to
Admit that I'm wrong and then change my mind
Sorry, but I have to move on
And leave you behind
As we glance at the sky you promise to return to me…but I know you won't and I
silently accept the truth. The irony in falling for someone who has fallen for someone
else. To be subject by the never ending triangle of heartbreak from the two people I
know best and care for. I watch you watch him, wish him well. Run to his aide
to protect him, I know you better than anyone else to be able to tell when you love
someone. Have you forgotten me. I watch you change and leave me behind.
It's been the longest summer without you
I didn't know where to turn to
See somehow I can't forget you
After all that we've been through
Going coming thought I heard a knock
Who's there no one
Thinking that I deserve it
Now I realize that I really didn't know
If you didn't notice you mean everything
Quickly I'm learning to live again
All I know is I'mma be ok
At least I thought I could make it. Fooled myself to believe that I would be ok and
could live on without you, yet you have returned and everything I thought I left
behind all my memories of you returned with your overbearing presence.
Everything about you is so familiar to me. I sense you even when your not near me
and I have always silently watched your back and stood up for you. I loved you
without judging you and accepted you no questions asked. When did you get so
strong, when did you develop the power to not rely on me anymore? Am I not
needed anymore? Can I protect you anymore? Do you still admire me anymore?
No I think I now the answer as your eyes look else where following the boy with
the orange colored hair whom I remembered loved his mother so much that like
a fool he never cried in front of her even when I beat him to tears. As soon as she
showed up he was better. The smiling boy who does smile anymore, when did you
surpass me? When did I become the burden of others to protect? Wasn't it my job as
a friend to always protect and look after you two?
Was it all that easy
To just put aside your feelings?
No need to worry bout everything I've done
Lived every second like it was my last one
Don't look back at a new direction
I loved you once
Needed protection
You're still apart of everything I do
You're on my heart just like a tattoo
For you I will get stronger Orihime, to be able to look you in the eye and stand tall
Ichigo. I will no longer be a burden; I can protect you both just fine.
It'll all get better in time
I'll always have you
But…will you ever return to me? You promised to come home to me. When will you
realize that fate brought you specifically to me and me to you. I think I loved you the
first day I protected you because you needed me then loved me then, but now that
you don't I must become stronger so that you will need me… love me again.
Thoughts: You were always by my side
Orihime speaks: Does your hand hurt…you're amazing…that makes you the second strongest girl in the country.
Thoughts: I know you
Orihime speaks: This is one of my favorite places in the whole world to relax…my brother and I used to come to this place to.
Thoughts: You never left me for that long
Tatsuki speaks: You're visiting some relatives for next week…Ichigo said that he was taking a trip too.
Thoughts: You seemed happy being with me
Tatsuki speaks: I think…that for you…if you decided to do something for yourself you should go ahead and do it…and do the best you can.
Thoughts: Things were fine with us always together
Tatsuki speaks: But please just promise…that you'll come back ok…I'll be waiting…Orihime.
Thoughts: I understand you must leave me
The firecrackers pop and we stare at each other…and I…
Thoughts: I'm afraid you won't return
Yet I Tatsuki made a promise and I will be waiting for you forever Orihime even if you never return my love for you. I will always love you and one day you will look at me the way you look at him yet we will share something deeper because we already have a bond stronger than any superficial love.
Most of the scene was from Bleach episode 20 before they left for Soul Society there was a small seemingly forgotten exchange between Orihime and Tatsuki that questioned their relationship as friendship or potential for more.
The songs I used was a mixture of Tattoo by Jordin Sparks and Better in Time by Leona Lewis.
END?
