A/N: This is a response to Bond of Flame08's 100 Song Theme Challenge.

I just want to point out that after checking out Bond of Flame08's profile, I realised that my host has a fic called 100 Shooting Stars and I want to make it clear that I never intended to have the same fic name as Bond of Flame08 so please don't bash me. :(

Anyways, 100 Shooting Stars by Bond of Flame08 is a really really good fic, especially if you love the friendship between Terra/Ven/Aqua.

Anyways...

Song 2: Dearly Beloved.

Pairings: Platonic Aqua/Ventus with a hint of Terra/Aqua

She never thought someone like Ventus would be the light that shone brightly in their household. It was as if he fell from the sky, much like a falling star with luminous rays of glimmering radiance. He had the personality that beamed more brilliantly then the Master's and a soul that rivalled with Terra's place in her heart.

But they loved him as if he was their younger brother and Aqua would travel to the Ends of the World and watch as the path of time is ripped apart to shreds behind her just to find where Ven's heart went missing.

Somehow, she imagined that she would succeed. She would bring right to all wrongs. She would find Terra and help reawaken her beloved Ventus. Often she watched him in peaceful slumber, and she analysed it to the best of her memory, taking in the little details of how his eyes fluttered to regain consciousness and his chest rose and fell in peaceful harmony.

"I must locate where Terra is. For now Ven, rest well," she said with a small smile before leaving Ventus sleeping in repose.

If she could throw a star in the sky and if it fell in its journey in another world, then she would want the words 'Dearly Beloved' etched on it because, Ventus was the beloved child that she and Terra would always protect.
