Everything's All Right
*INSERT STANDARD DISCLAIMER* I own nothing. blah blah blah. I think we already knew that.
*AN: All right, sorry for the last chapter. it was pretty pathetic. I just wanted the story to end. It just really started to annoy me, since it WOULD NOT go the way I wanted it to. I just about cried when it wouldn't work! Well, I'm going to try and actually end the story now, so we'll see if it works. Since I was having such a large writer's block, I took a break, ate chocolate, and dyed the last 2 or 3 inches of my hair purple. It seemed to work, since I've got a little 2 page ending now, when before all I had was a blank screen.

Part 3- A World of Tears
I stand at my window, gazing out at the night sky. It's quiet, and I'm left alone with my thoughts. For a night so similar to all the others I've spent sleeplessly staring out my window, it's so different. There is no fear. No desire to die. On other nights, I had believed that for people like me, there is no one out there waiting for you. I had believed that there are some (like me) who are destined to be alone forever. that there is no "right" person, and there is no reason for life and hope. I was wrong. That's the difference between those other nights and this night. I'm alone at my window, but I'm not completely alone. My friends are in their rooms not far from here, and my prince and king is inside the room behind me, ensconced in the darkness, asleep. I look out at the surrounding area, all shining and crystalline, moonlight glinting off some windows, looking more or less like a world of shimmering tears, beautiful and silent. Our kingdom is complete, the darkness is vanquished, and happiness isn't so hard to find. There is no need for anyone to be afraid anymore, and no one is. I feel strong enough still to take on the world, and yet. I feel like a blimp. There's a tiny heartbeat beneath my own, just waiting to beat on it's own, and we all can't wait for that day either. Darien is convinced that it's a boy, but I'm determined that it be a little girl. Just so we can go pick flowers together, and I can show her this beautiful kingdom that will one day be her own.
I hear footsteps behind me, and Darien's arms encircle my waist. He jumps a bit, as there's a kick in response from our child inside of me. "Yup! He's going to be great at sports!" Darien exclaims. I can only smile, because there's just something inside of me, whispering that it's a girl. I feel like I've finally grown up. I don't know why, but it seems like I've spent my whole life trying to be more grown up, and now I finally am, and I just feel tired. Once my daughter is born I can just enjoy her youth too. I flinch a bit, because I know that she will be every bit as klutzy, awkward, and completely in love with chocolate as I was. Hmm. now that I think of it, she'll probably also be strongly attracted to guys with dark hair. I'd better make sure I drive out everyone who doesn't have blonde hair, because I don't want my baby to grow up to fast. Better yet. Darien could get a gun. Yeah. that'll work.
Feeling like I can sleep, I take one last look at my little world of tears, and the rose gardens, before taking Darien's hand, and going to bed.
The End

Ok, there's the story. I hope you all liked it! Thanks again to: Jasmine- I'm glad you like it so far!! It began as a random thought. and then grew a bit. Sailorcutie- ack! Was it supposed to be longer?! Sorry, that's as long as I could get the story. it hated me! *points* "Mommy! The story started it! Destiny*Driver- Yeah, I was getting annoyed with the klutziness too, so I just started the story after she wasn't klutzy anymore. Marni- At first I wasn't sure how to get her unsettled, but I just started trying to model her after me a bit. Fellow- Ah! Another review! Thanks! Cynthia- Really? Wow, that's kind of cool. I would have felt real dumb if I had gotten something like "What do you mean?! Illegal to pick a flower?! Are you a blonde or something?" I would have felt really bad, because I am a blonde. I'm going to have to look up that flower, and see what it looks like. J.C. Thomas- Ha, I was tempted to put 'Ducky' for the name there. It's good to see that you're still alive, even though we haven't talked in.. quite a long time (a week a think!). Thanks for the review Lauren! I guess it's almost sad that the most reviews I've ever gotten on a story is 7. but :P. Oh well, I like my seven reviews!! ;)
