Akki- Smile

She always wondered what it would feel like to smile truely...

She's always smiled, to make others smile, to give off the impression she was happy. But that was a lie

All a lie; an act.

She was a hopeless case, until he came along by chance...

Lavi: The Bookma JR.

After meeting him, she gained a new perspective of life.

Her smiles were warmer, fuller...

but, she noticed what noone else could;

His smiles were the same. Always hiding, always... Empty.

She didn't know why someone like him would be happy and smile for real.

She then decided that she would smile for him. No matter what it may be, she'd smile through it if it was for his sake.

She cared alot for him, she yearned for him really. She longed to see him smilefor real, and at her. She thought her heart would explode from hapiness if he did.

He was her reason for living now.

She'd like to see him happy.

She grew to love him ... And truly admire everything about Lavi; His firey red hair, his perfectly shaded emerald green eye, which sparkled in the sunlight, giving him a certain gleam in his eye.

She loved his aditude, his way of thinking, his loyalness to his friends and those close to him. She loved him down to his very heart, alough he may claim to not have one.

She so wished to kiss him, or better yet, him kiss her. So she would know that he felt the same for her. She wished for him to say," I love you" to her, and her alone. For him to love her as much as she did for him.

To be able to kiss those lips, she thought would be a dream come true. To take off the headband that restrained his red locks from roaming free and wild around his face.

But...

She knew it was a selfish wish. A one-sided love. It could never happen for them.

Despite that, she would stay by his side and continue to smile. She would stay to see him finally smile.

And hopefully, one day, be happy herself.

And... She had a hunch that he would be the reason for her feeling that way.
