A/N: Thank you to Fille des Reves and MonMonCandie for reviewing the last chapter!

I'm feeling a lot better now, but I might only do one or two chapter per day. Writing three is really hard! :(

Anyway, hope you enjoy! :D

LIV. Guilt

Ven's palms were sweaty as he watched his friends bicker yet again, over something that wasn't the older man's fault for once. The guilt that he felt was overwhelming him, but he couldn't bring himself to tell her the truth. Not yet...

Not even when Terra had narrowly avoided getting zapped by a Thunder spell from an annoyed Aqua. He simply stood at the corner of the room, trying to ignore everything that was going on.

Not even when the female decided to cast Fire spells that homed onto Terra, who screamed before sprinting around the large room until the fiery spells died out.

...Okay, maybe since Aqua was now trying to cast Zero Gravity on him. Ven shuffled his feet nervously and looked down, before swallowing a lump that had appeared in his throat. He stepped out from the shadows and walked firmly towards the two. They both stopped their hair pulling and looked at the younger boy sweetly.

"Yes Ven?" Aqua asked, bending down and ruffling his hair affectionately. The boy shook his head and looked up at her, determination shining in his eyes. And maybe, just maybe, a little bit of fear.

"Um... Terra wasn't the person that glued your shoes to the ceiling..." He looked down, receiving a look of confusion from Aqua. Terra was giving the 'Took-You-Long-Enough' look at the blonde.

"It was me..."
