(Okay, hands up who's heard of the I-pod shuffle challenges? I have and wrote this today while I was supposed to be revising Biology... :P. The idea is that you write a fan-fic in the same amount of time as the song lasts. As with Teenagers, I broke the time-limit a bit, but not nearly as much as I did last time... :D)
All the Small Things- Blink 182
I don't know why I love him. I really don't...
I suppose, what I love the most is all the small things about him. The almost miniscule details about him that make him so Ra-damned irresistible. I'm not saying that he isn't physically attractive, Gods no. Just watching him come out of the shower makes me want him all the more, but it's the small things that make me love him, not just want him.
The way he's always happy in the morning. Always ready in the mornings with a smile. How he can be so lively so soon after Ra himself has woken up is beyond me. Maybe it's because he's a hikari, a light himself, or maybe he only seems so cheery because I'm not a morning person. Either way, I'm glad of it...
The way he curls his fingers and bites his knuckle when he's worried, then wonders how I can tell he's upset...
The way he never forgets an important day. He remembered my birthday when I'd forgotten and threw a party. He even remembered our five month anniversary, and by the gods, was that a day to remember...
The way he's not afraid to be weak at times, never afraid to cry. He never hides what he feels. That's true courage. True strength...
The way his eyes light up when he's happy, reflecting the inner light of his soul. The way his eyes express everything he feels and never lie to me. Comparing them to jewels would be pointless, his eyes are by far more precious. Jewels are dead, while his eyes are full of life, hope and goodness. His eyes promise more valuble things than the wealth of a jewel ever could. They're stars, capable of shining through the darkest of nights. Capable of leading me through anything
The way his voice carries a rippling music of it's own. A choir couldn't compare to the melody of his words.
The way he's everything I could never be. Sweet, considerate, caring, sensitive, honest, pure...
But one of the greatest things about him is that he accepts me for who I am and loves me as just that. He doesn't try to change me. He wouldn't have have to. I'd change myself if it meant I could stay with him for a single day longer.
He holds me spellbound, even if he doesn't mean to. I've tried to go away from him. I've tried so many times, but the world hold no warmth behind him. He can make me do anything with that smile of his. That bright, innocent, endearing, wonderful smile that captivates and fascinates me. A simple upturning of his lips and I'd follow him anywhere...
Is that what I've become? Have I become a slave to this boy, this hikari, this... tenshi? Some kind of tamed animal, a pet for him to lead and play with?
Do I care?
(Question: Does anyone knows who's speaking here? I would really enjoy finding out who you guys think it is... :P.
Furthermore, suggestions for improving my short one-shots would be much appreciated. They never seems to do as well as the long ones.)
