The Emperor's New Groove:
Falling in Love Isn't For an Emperor
Chapter 7: One Day, She'll Love Me
((Thought I'd go ahead and put alittle disclaimer on this one. Ok, I don't own the song, "One Day, She'll Love Me" or Sting, nor Shawn Colvin. I do own Raina, Zelma, and Xema though. ^-^ And also, it is a bit of a coincidence that One Day She'll Love Me is the seventh chapter, as it is the seventh song on the soundtrack. ^-^ I also do understand that this song was originally made before The Emperor's New Groove was finished, and not used in the final film. If you wanna know more, I'm sure you'll find something out at http://www.upcomingmovies.com For now, I'm using this song for Raina and Kuzco. Thank you. Ok, now enjoy! ~ ~))
"Kuno! Why are we running so fast?" Raina asked as we got back into the jungle.
"No time to explain now!" I shouted, and then finally stopped, catching my breath.
Raina ran up to me, breathing heavily too. "Kuno....why did we leave that place so suddenly?"
"I uh....spotted the people who turned me into a llama..."
"What? Well, why didn't you point them out? Bash them for what they did? Beat them up?"
"Because....I'll turn them in later...to the proper authorities.."
"I think you should take them to the emperor and have him decide what to do with them! He'd take care of them in an instant!!"
"Yeah.." I sighed. "I bet he would..." I then sat down on a rock. "So....how much further to Pacha's?" I said, trying to change the subject.
"Not much farther, but if we continue on now we may run into trouble again, like last night."
"Oh yeah...you don't have to remind me..." I smiled.
She smiled back. "Well, anyway, it's pretty late. I guess we should go to bed. But first, I'm kinda thirsty, so I'm gonna go find some water from the lake. Do you wanna come?"
"Hmm? Oh, no thanks...you go ahead..." I said, in the middle of a thought.
"Alright Kuno..." She smiled, and picked up a bucket. "Oh, and Kuno. You do promise to take me to the palace after we see Pacha?"
"Hmm? Oh..yeah...I...promise..." Why did she keep having to make me feel guilty?
She nodded, and walked off.
I sighed and looked up at the sky, which was now lighted by a bunch of twinkling fireflies. I had never felt so guilty in my entire life. I could never take her to the palace. And if she found out I was keeping this secret from her, that I was the emperor, she may turn out to hate me....I didn't know why she would, I mean, she seemed to take the fact that I was a llama pretty well. But perhaps being the emperor would be too much...
Kuzco: I never imagined before that the world could be turned on it's head,
I never have thought to be here in this place,
I never have dreamt that in love I'd be lost and so easily led,
I guess I was caught by that hint of a smile on her face.
I thought I was happy before when my life was as easy as pie,
But that was the past of an igronant youth,
I'm falling in love with a girl but I'm forced to be living a lie,
And she'd never love me if she knew the truth.
Is it asking too much if I pray for a miricle, miricle,
That one day, she'll love me,
One day, she'll say I care.
Raina: Although he's changing day by day,
He finds these tender words of love,
Impossible to say,
He walks in the room and I'm never quite sure if he's trying to be somebody else,
I'm liking him better that he's not his arrogant self,
Perhaps I'm expecting too much of a miricle, miricle,
One day, he'll love me,
One day, he'll say I love you,
And I will love him until I die...
Kuzco: Distant Star,
Cast your light on my life.
Kuzco: And one by one
Raina: I didn't antecipate the feeling of the power of love in this way,
Kuzco: And day by day
Raina: We've never been closer than this and I find myself daring to pray.
Both: We'll find these tender ways of love,
Impossible to disobey..
Kuzco: One day, she'll love me,
Raina: One day, he'll say I love you,
Kuzco: And I will love her,
Both: Until the moment,
Our hearts stop beating,
And we are light........
I sighed and sat down and lowered my head. Then raised it up quickly. What was I talking about? Me in love? Was that it? Was that true? I had never been in love before...and...now...it all came so quickly, I didn't know what was happening anymore.
Raina picked up her bucket of water and started back. Am I really in love with him? She thought. I only met him a few days ago. But he is nice....and he knows the emperor, so he can't be that bad...
Raina finally got back to where I was sitting and sat down the bucket. "I'm...back.." She almost choked.
I sighed. "Hey...."
"Anything happen while I was gone?" She asked me.
"No..not really..."
She looked up at the sky. "The fireflies must be restless tonight.." She said.
"Yeah..." I chose not to look up. I was having too many mixed emotions. For one, I was confused about Raina, and this whole love thing. Plus, I was homesick, still hungry, guilty, tired, and baffled.
"I brought back some water.." She said, looking at me. "Would you like some?"
"No thanks..." I said, continuing to stare at the ground.
"Kuno...what's wrong?"
"Oh...I don't know!" I snapped at her, got up and walked away.
Raina followed me. "Kuno! What is wrong with you? You've acted suspicious this whole evening! Now what's wrong?"
"I said I don't know, ok?!" I snapped again, not turning around. To tell you the whole truth, I had tears in my eyes, on the edge of crying.
Her face grew angry. "Fine! Just act that way! Maybe I won't take you to Pacha.." There was anger in her voice too.
"Fine!" I shouted. "I don't need you to take me to Pacha's! I can find it myself." I said, sitting on the ground as I heard her growl and walk off.
She sat far away from me, and later on in the night, when we were suppose to both be asleep, I heard her crying....
