The Lost Loves
By: GodOfTheWired

God, she's beautiful. I sit here and stare at her every chance I get. Her pale skin seems to give off this radiant, almost pure light. When she enters a room, the place seems to light up from her sheer radiance. And her eyes.. they're always so full of compasion and caring. Oh rapture... there's the voice of my former love interest before I met her. My ex sits there and harps on about this and that, including where we should go next. Her voice just tends to annoy me now. Oh! There's my angel now! She walks in, as silent as always. Even her name alone seems to show how beautiful she is. Lain. Four letters that seem to sum up beauty.

Pretty amazing.. I never saw myself being such a coward that I can't outright tell her how I feel. I thought for sure I was brave enough to be truthful with her. Wait for a moment when she and I were alone together. I never really got that chance. Good god she's beautiful.. it's almost like she's to lovely to exist in this world. She walks over and starts talking with my ex. Her pony tail swishes as she walks... I love that. Have you ever noticed how it does that? It looks so.. so.. sensuous. That makes me seem so perverted. It's the truth though. It has the same effect as if she walked swaying her hips. Now that I'm thinking about it, picturing my Lain doing that is pretty funny.

It wasn't until a little bit ago that I realized I was practically cold hearted to Lain. I teased her.. I can't believe I was so cruel. I hope she'll forgive me.. Lain seems like the forgiving type right? I'd hate to have her hate me.. especially since I haven't even told her how I feel. Maybe the love I feel for her is just intended to be one of those lost loves. Ya know, the ones that just never actually occur. I must seem so silly by now. I've been spaced out here staring at her for what must have been ten minutes now. I don't care, and no one seems to have noticed. I watch her talk with my ex.. god her lips are so pink. Agh get out of my head! Bad thoughts! It makes me sick to think of how many times I've gotten the selfish desire to hold her in my arms, maybe take some of her pain for her, and kiss those lips. I've always thought about it, but again, cowardice takes over and I end up chickening out. It's sad I know.. today will be the day! I will tell her today and that's that! No more waiting! I'll just apologize to her and tell her how I feel! That'll be the end of it. No more.. huh? Whose hand is on my shoulder? Oh it's just my friend.

"Who are you staring at Reika? A crush or something?"

The End... and thank god for that

Author's Notes: BWAHAHAHAHAHA!!! I'm sorry.. I was feeling evil. I just had to write this when I was thinking of someway to be purely EVIL. For those of you to slow to catch what just happened, the "ex love interest" was Alice, the one Lain ALWAYS talks with. The friend would be Juri. When I wrote this, I realized just how many ways I could manipulate this so it would make sense, but then that evil voice in me(the one that tells me to burn things)forced me to write it this way. I apologize again for this insanity... And be sure to read the Holy Modem! Bojangles Forever!
