Summary: Sometimes, even the greatest confessions are lies.
Rating: K
A/N: This will start an onslaught of shojo-ai oneshots/drabbles. Neither of the characters is lesbian (one is bisexual and the other is panromantic asexual, look either term up on google if you don't understand) but I feel that the relationship I've developed between them is pretty sweet. The rating will soon rise to T and stay there, due to the outlood today's world has on same gender relationships.
This drabble is me and my realization that the word 'ashiteru' doesn't just mean 'I love you'. Actually, telling someone 'ashiteru' is like dramatically confessing your love. In this drabble, only one character knows the true meaning of the word.
Please read and review!
She says "ashiteru" with out knowing what it means.
It hurts!
She tells me we'll be friends forever.
I smile and laugh. For her.
She hugs me.
I blink back tears.
She takes my arm, cuddles up close.
"Ashiteru" she says, without knowing what it means.
I look away, blinking fast.
She has no idea what she does to me when she's around.
I want to do everything I can to make her happy. That's all that matters.
I love her.
I tell her "ashiteru"
And I mean every syllable of it.
A/N: I know, pretty short. I promise the next one will be longer.
