I'm not afraid anymore

(Yuri warning)

Every minute seemed like hours. I waited on the roof of the school where we were supposed to meet. I came early so I could think…I didn't have anything to say to her, never did the thought come of calling her here so I had nothing to say. It sounds stupid doesn't it? I call someone to meet with me to talk about something, but I don't know that "something" yet. I don't think suddenly confessing to her would be the right approach, and I wasn't ready to go into what I told Kyouko. But….Then what do I say? Do I have to choose between those two choices or should I bring something else up, but what? Crap, she's here. What do I do? I'm so stupid, shaking and not knowing what to do.

"What did you want to talk about?" Madoka smilled and sat down next to me, it was like a dream. "Well…I didn't really think about that…" I looked down flustered; I could hear her giggle a bit. "You know. At first you seemed a little scary but I've really changed my mind. You're a really interesting person Homura!" I looked up to see her beautiful smile. "But..I'm a magical girl and…And…" I started to tear up. Not in front of her.. I don't want her to see my weakness. "What's wrong? You can tell me anything! You're my friend Homura!" She still smiled. "Friend? You want to be my friend? I looked at her in disbelief. "Of course I want to be your friend! Magical girl or not, your still a human!" She brushed some of the hair out of my red face. "I'm not human, magical girls aren't human! I'm a terrible person… I have so much I haven't told anyone…" My tears fell again. "You can tell me these things! It's ok to let them out, I won't tell anyone."

She pulled me into a side hug. "Then...I'm well…I'm not from this time period." I tried to look her into her eyes. She sat there staring for a minute. "Was that your wish to become a magical girl?" She asked with no fear in her voice. "Yes…That's why I've tried to keep you away from Kyubey..He's evil. I've seen countless friends die because of him.." I wiped away my tears, but a few still fell slowly. "I'm so sorry Homura… I wish I could do something for you.." She looked into my eyes again. She had no idea that she could do so much for me, it would mean the world to me if she didn't become a magical girl, to love me back. I could tell her the first part but never the second part. "Please don't become a magical girl…Please…" I hugged her tightly, not wanting to let go. I was so afraid she would disappear after that and I wouldn't be able to see her again. "I won't become a magical girl" She told me, I trusted in those words. "Are you sure?" I clung to her tighter. "I'm sure." She had confidence in her voice. "Then can I tell you something…I wasn't planning to but I want to tell you this…" I let go of her and looked at her. "What do you want to tell me?" She looked at me seriously. "I love you Madoka."


I really like how this chapter turned out! I was attempting to submit it yesterday but due to a 7 page paper that needs to be finished eventually, I spent yesterday typing that out instead! I hope you enjoyed this chapter! Also sorry for repeating myself every chapter but thank you guys for the reviews! It really keeps me going when I'm writing this!
