A/N: It's just a short two part fic about Elena and her feelings after
Meteor. Elena POV. Kind depressive.
I live for my demise
I love who I despise
Feed me a soothing lie
I'm happier that way
-Cynically Depressed by Bracket
Depressed.
I gaze out into the bright red sunset and just lose myself. I seem to be doing that a lot lately. It's funny to see such a brilliant sunset at this time of year. Tough I guess the snow creates an added affect. Most everyone is out doing last minute Christmas shopping while I'm standing in the empty park overlooking Midgar. I mean I should be happy I'm alive and I still have a well paying job. Though I've noticed a lot lately that Reno and Rude have been ignoring me. I've come to realize that no one gives a crap about what happens to me anyway. That's why I'm here and not shopping. I just got them a bottle of Vodka each. It would probably be easier to throw myself off this cliff I'm watching the sunset on, but I can see Reno saying 'you're so weak Elena' when they found my broken body at the bottom. That's about the only thing I hear from him these days. I go to pull my coat around me closer except to find that I don't have a coat. Oh well life sucks sometimes.
"We can make this easy if you just give me your money, lady," a gruff voice behind me says. I turn and look at him as he charges me. I pull into a defensive stance and block him, but he still gets to me and gives me a deep cut on the right side of my waist. I pull him up over my head and throw him over the cliff I was just standing at. I wince as I sit down at the base of a huge hemlock tree. I look out and the sun has practically set and it's getting colder by the minute. I smile and think it will soon be all over.
**************************************************************************** ****************
But I wake up and find myself in a hospital room. I'm guessing some stranger found me and brought me here, because the others really don't care. The probably think I left and are sad because they will have no one to pick on. Then the man I least want to see walks in, Reno. I immediately close my eyes and pretend to still be unconscious.
"Hey Rude, do ya think she'll die?" Reno's voice sounded sad when he said that but I have no clue why. "...maybe. The doctor said she has a 50/50 chance of making it." 50/50? Well a 50% chance of dying isn't all that bad. At least I might still die.
"I hope she lives so I can tell her that I love her." What?!? "She seems so depressed lately. I mean when I try to make a joke she takes it seriously. And she's blocking everyone out." Since when did he start caring? Oh well I still think I'm better off dead.
**************************************************************************** ****************
One year later
It's almost Christmas time again and Reno hasn't said anything. I think, wait no, I'm positive that it was a joke.
"Hey Elena!" Oh great, it's Mr. I Hate Elena. "Wanna go for a walk?"
"Sure whatever." I mutter as I get up and follow Reno out the door. We start to walk to the park. As we reach the park, Reno says something but I don't hear him. I learn to ignore it. He's probably saying something along the lines of 'Elena you have to stop being weak and actually do something.' We stop and sit down on a bench and he looks at me. For a very long time. I turn to him and say "What?" in an annoyed tone. He just reaches over and kisses me deeply. For once in these past years I feel like I belong and I'm cared for.
A/N: There's gonna be an even shorter part two. I know, I know, but I find it hard to write extremely long chapters. Anywho please Review!!!
