A/N hi fan fiction viewwers, members and well whatever let's get on with the show. Anyways this is my first fic for the Thunderbirds. Scott is 20, john is 18 (and married...don't kill me) Virgil is sixteen (and this is in his POV) Gordon is fourteen and Alan is nine(almost ten) In later chapters I will bring in Maximum Ride Charecters and OC's just so you know. Plus as I will explain later Gordon and Virgil don't go to Wharton's they go to mercersburg because I didn't like the idea of Whartons personally and nto having been to military school myself and having other plans for virgil's after school life thought that a different boarding school would be more apropriate. Anyways on with the fanfic. Oh and Daryll is an OC of mine :)
I'm sorry but Daryll is dead
the words kept ringing through my head haunting me smothering me. I wanted to go back to three hours ago to before she had died then maybe I would get some peace inside my head.
More importantly three days ago would be nice. I wish i could've helped her, she'd complained about a slight headache but hhad shaken it off as nothing.
Simply stress
Had been all she'd said about the matter just that she was fine. I should've done something, I should've told her how much I loved her. There was so much i should've done so many words unsaid so much I could've done.
Her laughter filled my ears her smiling face hid any sign of anxiety or paranoa. There were three words on my mine three words that wanted to come out. I knew there was no way she'd think of me the same no guarantee that she'd return those three words.
"why couldn't we stay here forever." I kept a sinister smile on my face my heart aching. I feel the same way Daryll i thought. Sitting in my room watching as Gordon and Alan jumped into the pool again and again. Everything seemed to quiet so perfect.
Why couldn't we stay here forever? I knew we couldn't there was no way. Daryll would have to go home and try to deal with her verbally abusive father. Is it weird to say I want to save her? I wanted to hold her in my arms all night and let her cry let her know she was safe. At the same time though I knew that wasn't an option she had no idea I knew about her dad that was jsut one of the many things she hid behind that radiant smile and crystal clear grey-green eyes.
"We can't stay here forever though time is kind of a bitch that way." She turned to me smiling her brown hair getting in her eyes. I wanted to reach up and push it away but she beat me to it. Brushing it gently away from her eye.
"Are you ok?" Daryll jsut nodded smiling and somehow I knew she wasn't but I knew she wouldn't tell me what was on her mind. She edited her thoughts too much and put up too many walls. Those walls had too many prickle bushes and vines many them tricky to climb over.
I often imagined these walls in my mind eventually painting them. Sometimes they had a dragon's head peeking over the edge threatening to burn anyone that came near. I only wished I could crumble those walls to smitherines and rescue her; my damsel in distress.
"I'm sorry I didn't try hard enough to break down your walls." I looked up at the ceiling hoping somehow she heard me somehow these spoken messages reached her ears. "I loved you." I said more for me than for her, just to get it in the open even if she weren't here.
Tears rolled freely down my cheeks as I remembered her laugh so effortless and now I was sure it was nearly always forced.
I looked down at the lyrics of her favorite song I'd printed out hours ago
Lose Another Day Here
Lose Another Year Here
I'm With You
Call it karma- Silverstein. maybe the story of her lfie but i'd stufied the lyrics a million times and no matter how many times I read I was no closer to figuring out her secrets. I went through every memory studying each one closely and with each one saw how much she hid behind those grey-green eyes.
"I should've tried harder." I whispered. "I should've figured out a way to help you!" I yelled louder as a few tears broke free and slid down my face.
"I should've figured out a way to help you."
