As usual, the disclaimer is here.
I notice it.
I always have noticed it.
I just never said anything.
Notice II
By Kanoko
How long has it been? How long has it been since you left for that god knows how long mission? Was it even a mission that you left to or a lie that everyone except me knew about? Hayate-chan said that you were on a long-term mission or something but to me, I can't help but get this feeling that you're close to me and at the same time far away. And no matter how many times I beg Lindy-san, she just won't tell me where you are. Chrono-kun just simply gives me this disappointed look and changes the subject to my missions.
Did you know, Fate-chan? Did you know that I'm not as dense as it seems? I knew that the day he confessed to me was also the day that you wanted to tell me something from the bottom of your heart because… I also wanted to confess to you that day. Don't you think I'm a coward now? I backed out at the last minute and agreed to go out with him.
That time when Hayate-chan suddenly kissed you, I felt my heart broke but I gave you a congratulations smile anyway. After all, Hayate-chan was a nice girl and I'm sure you would be happy with her. But that was what I thought. It had turned out you weren't going out with her and I have to admit that I felt a heavy weight being lifted from my heart. I somehow felt guilty about it. I had probably thought that if I don't have you, then no one can. Nyahaha, how selfish of me. Gomen ne, Fate-chan.
I had always known that there was a special bond between us. I knew the moment I saw you, when I wanted to be your friend at any cost. I had known since that moment… But back then, I didn't know what this bond was. I could only feel it grow stronger and stronger and not understand why it's there.
It was when I saw Arisa-chan and Suzuka-chan together that I finally understand what those feelings I had were. If I were to turn time back, I really wish I didn't agree to go out with him that time. But it can't be helped now can it? If you ever see this letter, I really hope that you would give me another chance. Another chance to say that…
I love you, Fate.
Come back to me safe, Fate-chan. I'll notice for sure this time.
There! The Nanoha part… Hm, I never thought of a Nanoha part until the suggestions came in. Um… Yea this one is shorter since I haven't really thought about it and maybe if I have the idea, Nanoha and Fate would finally meet again!
