How Could You Do This? I Love You
Sequel to Is My Life Worth Living For?
Author: Rinny Leonheart
I don't own Final Fantasy VIII and I never will.
I can't believe what I made you do
I heard you crying when I told you it was over
Your eyes shed tears
I felt your pain
No-one understood me better than you
And I threw it all away for lust
You had my love and always will
But I wish you had told me
How bad I hurt you
How could you do this? I love you
I found you in our room
The carpet was ruined
You were right
The colour was horrible
Now it's even worse than before
Your blood soaking the carpet
I ran to your lifeless body
I wept for you
Are you happy now?
The letter was under your bleeding wrist
I felt for your pulse
I found nothing
You had been dead for an hour, at least
If only I'd been there
I could have stopped you
From taking the life
That I wish I had back
How could you do this? I love you
My heart is breaking at the sight of you like this
I didn't want things to get this far
As I said before, with Quistis, it was lust only
Not like the love I felt for you
I still do
Love you
I wish you were still here
Phoenix Downs won't work this time
They are only meant for battles, not self-inflictions
I wish I could bring you back
To tell you how sorry I am
Your pale face tells me I was too late to save you
The way you ended, was too late already
No Curaga will ever erase my pain
No Elixir will ever heal my heart
Maybe if I went after you
I could see you up there
My angel
My Angelwing
How could you do this? I love you
Everyone's crying for you
Even those who didn't know you
My tears are falling onto your face now
Is there any life left in you to feel them?
Please talk to me
You can't be gone
You were stronger than that
Strongest of us all
How could you say that I wouldn't have cared?
I never stopped caring for you
Your life WAS worth living for
I hadn't meant to make you feel otherwise
I overreacted when you said no
Fighting was just not in you
I see that now
If only I had sooner…
How could you do this? I love you
You said not to follow you
But I can't live without you
I risked my life to bring you back from space
Was it all in vain, now?
The way you held onto me
When we were in the cockpit together
I didn't want to let you go
But I did eventually
Hyne, I'm such a fool
I put my job before you
This took you away
A long time before it ended
We just didn't know
Until it was too late
For either of us
How could you do this? I love you
You made me promise to protect you
Did you mean from yourself also?
If so, then I failed you
As a soldier, as a knight
We were meant to be together forever
But you took it away from me
I came here to say sorry
And ask for your hand
And do what we'd never done before
I'm still a virgin
Embarrassing, huh?
Quistis and I didn't go there
Even if it was lust
My feelings for you made me see sense
Before it was too late
But it already was for us
How could you do this? I love you
I can't keep my promise
I want to be by your side
Forgive me, Rinoa
I can't live like this anymore
I'm lifting you into my arms and am walking out of our room
Out of Garden
Everyone's shouting
They're running after us
But I won't let them near you
It'll only be me
I'm running up the mountain
You on my back
Like when you were comatose in Fisherman's Horizon
Do you remember that?
Your almost drained body still seeps blood
My white shirt is ruined
But I don't care
It's only a shirt
I have others
But I only had one of you
And now you're gone
I wish it weren't true
Stay close to me
I won't let you fall
Unless I fall too
How could you do this? I love you
You were my life
My body, my soul
The pain I'm feeling is too real
Time will never erase the pain
That I'm feeling now
Because you're gone
Forever
I don't wanna believe it
I want you here
To see your eyes
To feel your warmth
But you've become cold
Not like I used to be
You died
And it's all my fault
I'm sorry
How could you do this? I love you
I hate myself for being selfish
You always wanted us to share activities
Not needless massacres
You were right about that
I was wrong
I admit I was a fool
Please come back?
Rinoa, hear my prayer and return to me
The way you were
Before this all began
Or, I'll come to you
Even if you don't want to see me
I'll find you up there
How could you do this? I love you
This is just another crossroad in my life
To live without you
Or to die, to be with you
Give me a sign to make this choice
I love you so much
My one last wish would be to see your shining smile in the clouds above my head
The stars are masked by these clouds
Part them for me, should you wish to see me once more
Before I make this final leap
To the ground
With you in my arms
I can't say I won't do something foolish
You're worth any pain I endure
Just to see you again one day
In heaven
I still see no signs
You probably can't hear me
This is for you
My last breath will be that which I took from you
Will come now
See you soon
Rinoa…
How could you do this? I love you
I love you...
