Thanks, Beth Warnings: None, unless you don't like the idea of Heero and Relena as a pairing, or if you don't like silly fluffish stories. Category: Short songfic, Relena's POV. Pairing: Slight 1*R

Part One: I Never Thought I'd See the Day

You shed a shadow on my life shed a shadow on a love took the shelter out of my life took the shelter of a lie

I knew you were hiding in the shadows. I knew you were guarding me. I knew you were always there, keeping your promise. But why weren't you there beside me? Why didn't you show your face? Why didn't you come talk to me?

I could see it in your restless eyes the truth was hiding the truth you could not disguise

I knew you cared about me, even if only a little. Otherwise you would have killed me long ago- and you only try to kill people you care about... I mean, look at all the times you tried to kill Duo, and he's your best friend- though you'd never admit it...

But I never thought I'd see the day I knew I'd need a miracle to make you stay I knew I needed a miracle and I never thought I'd see the day

I walked down the slippery sidewalk, as it began to rain. I headed for my secret garden. I always went there when I wanted to be alone. Why didn't you kill me? Did you really care? Or was I just fooling myself into believing that you did?

You put a shadow on a love took the shelter of a lie took the shelter out of my life

I fell to my knees in front of a rosebush. The soaked roses were both red and white. My hair was dripping, and the water sliding down my face was not entirely due to the rain. I reached out a hand to gently brush a white rose with gentle fingertips. I gasped as a thorn dug into my hand. I shadow fell over the bush, and I smiled. I wish you could shelter me shelter me now I need a miracle

"So" I asked you, the cut forgotten, still looking at the white rose that was now stained red... "Are you intending to stay this time?" Rough hands pulled me up. You turned me around, so you could see my face, I guess. You were just as soaking wet as I was. Your Prussian blue eyes bored into my violet ones... What were you looking for there? "Yes" You said in a firm monotone. I smile, thinking,

"And I never thought I'd see the day..."
