A/N: lets see what do say about my newest story…Right it's going to be multiple chapters and revolve around the life of an OC named Aeria and her life within the seven universe. Well hope you enjoy it.
Picking up the tape recorder, I pressed record. "I have a story to tell. It's something stupid, especially seeing as it's coming from me. There was this girl, this girl i loved very much. She meant so much to me. I took from her everything she owned, and everything she ever knew. Sector seven was something I never thought i'd regret until I went back to scene and saw this child. She was a small thing; couldn't be taller then at least five foot and couldn't weigh more then a hundred pounds. Small little thing I swear. Hair brown, eyes blue. She was super pretty. But, sadly, there was something about her though that none of us would find out until much later. But, uhm, i'll get to that later I swear! Well lets just get this started. I don't know how long the battery on this thing will last and Tseng said to record everything that occured. Ok Reno, lets begin..."
We both sat, hand in hand, watching as the sun set over the clear waters of Costa del Sol. Aeria, shy as always, just sat and stared, not a single word nor sounds escaping her lips. I, on the other hand, really could not stop talking. It was just an amazing feeling that I didn't want to end. Yes we were just friends, and yes I had some sort of feelings for her beyond that, but it was my job to protect her; keep her safe for she had no one else to do it; which was my fault (I did drop the plate that her and her family lived under ultimately killing her family). I felt responsible and I swore to myself I'd do whatever it took to keep her safe for she had no one else to do it.
She withdrew her hand from mine and rested both her lap. What was she thinking? What was I thinking getting upset by this simple action? She sighed and looked at me, her soft blue eyes meeting mine. "You know," she began, her tone soft and innocent as always. She stood and walked to the shore line, putting one shoed foot in the water, winced then took it out. "I often wonder about myself when I hang out with you, you know?" she turned to look at me, the faintest of smiles crossing her lips. "And what I wonder is how crazy am I to be hanging out with a man twice my age who, mind you, is a known killer." She giggled. Her statement wasn't far off though. I have killed many innocent people, as well as( unbeknownst to her) the death of thousands from the plate drop of sector seven. Sometimes I wondered the same thing as well.
She approached me and knelt before me, putting her hands on my knees. She always loved touching me, not that I mind of course. "I guess I'm just crazy eh Reno?" she laughed and rolled onto her back, resting her head on my legs. I ran my hand through her mid length brown hair. She smiled and closed her eyes.
"Yup very crazy indeed." I responded lovingly. I didn't want this moment to end. I wanted to sit here with her on this beach forever; to never let her go, to be here with her until the end of time. But I knew that just couldn't be; that my ideal life with her would never happen; I was twenty-eight and her fourteen. Not only that, she saw me more as an older brother then anything else. I sighed, as this thought ruined my happy mood; knowing that I would never be anything but a friend to the person I truly did love. She must have picked up on my mood and asked 'what's wrong?' I shook my head, simply responding 'nothing.'
A/N: I'm going to attempt to update this story every day or other day. Hopefully at least.
