she used to say 'i love you'
"Jaune… I…"
I love you, his mind supplied.
He had watched this recording hundreds of times. And it is only then, after hundreds of watches, after hundreds of tears and gasps of pain and swings of his sword did he understand what she tried to say that night.
Pyrrha Nikos had always loved him. Why, he would never really know- but what he did know is that he had lost the most perfect creature to ever stand by his side. Nothing will ever change that.
And so, the video looped yet again, giving him another chance to reflect on every moment he ever spent with her; it was too late now, but he wanted to be able to tell her one day that he learned how to truly listen.
A/N: And that's that! Let me know what you think, and I'll see you around in my other works :) Some of my current RWBY fics include:
What We Call Home (Renora V4-6)
Cameo Lovers (Fair Game V7)
Touch the Sky (Mercury full backstory)
Excuse Me, Professor (Grad School AU)
Encoding (Nuts and Dolts V1-3)
Cheers for reading!
