Where Time Stands Still:

"Oh, are you sure you don't mind? I mean, I'm not keeping you from anything am I?"

Vanille asked as she sat at my side by the shoreline

"Not at all." I answered, smiling sweetly. "Don't worry; I could sit here for hours."

And I could

After all, I've done it countless times before

There's just something so calming about watching the waves flowing back and forth

The tide pulling in and out

Its like everything else just fades away and time means nothing

And it doesn't

Time means nothing to such a beautiful element

If only that could be the case for a L'cie

But then again

Eternity

Eternity, what does that even really mean?

How is that any different from death anyway?

No, I won't let that bother me now

I'm too content here

So I'll just stay here

With Vanille at my side

Watching the waves

In the place where time stands still
