Her favorite Color- chapter 10
Without even having to look up, I knew that he had found me first, before I even had the chance to look for him. Tai knelt down in front of me and placed his hands into mine, and yet I still did not look at him.
"Sora…" He said, as he know removed one of his hands from mine and touched my cheek. I find it so hard to describe what I was feeling at that exact moment. So many different emotions and sensations were running through my body. Tai's warm hand on my face felt like heaven to me. He brushed away the tears that continued to fall from my eyes with such loving movements that I could hardly believe it was him. It was almost as if I was in a movie… We were in the most perfect spot, underneath the stars, the only place that something as powerful as this could occur. There was only a slight chill in the air, which made it even more important that we were close together, for the warmth that I felt upon my skin, and in my heart. The shot was always on our bodies. Close captures of our hands and faces as we touched for the first time in five long years.
After long moments of taking in his touches, I slowly gazed up to look into his eyes. I have never before in my life felt as I did then. I didn't understand what had happened before we found ourselves together in the park, on the edge of the slide looking into each other's souls. And it felt as if it didn't really matter anyway. I was suddenly overcome with a happiness that I had never once experienced on my life before this night.
"Oh god, Tai!" I cried. I flung my arms around him and buried my face into his neck. I cried like it was the last scene of the movie. The music would be playing and the audience would have tears in their eyes, just like mine. His arms wrapped around me in the most perfect way that any woman could ever ask for. If I had dies in his arms then, I would have dies the happiest person in the world.
"I'm so sorry Tai. I never got to tell you…I've missed you so much, I can't believe that you're actually here. Oh god Tai, I'm so sorry, you have to forgive me…I had no idea…please forgive me…" I continued to weep into his neck as I pleaded him to forgive him. He didn't say a word until I stopped crying.
"I forgave you five years ago, Sora. There's no need to cry anymore. Okay?" I could only nod in response…I wanted him to continue talking to me. It felt so wonderful to hear his voice again.
"I can't say I wasn't surprised to see you at the bookstore tonight…I would never had suspected that. You could have given me a call or something." He smiled. I found it hard to speak.
"No…it's better this way…"
Tai began to stroke my hair, and I could have fallen asleep at that moment, but I had to keep myself awake. Just because I could have taken a nap, didn't mean I wanted to.
"I want you to know that I've missed you too. I've missed you every second since I left the club that night. And I've really been hurting, too. Not knowing what you were all up to. I was scared that everybody would just forget about me…that you would forget about me."
"Tai, I could never forget you, you mean-"
"I was still scared though. My life has not been easy being so far away from you, Sora. Everyday I have to tell myself to get out of bed. Even now with the book and the music, it's hard to even understand why I even tried…"
"Tai…"
"But I guess my only reason, my only strength, has been the thought that someday I would see you again. And now you're here…I don't know what to say."
"You don't have to. I'm perfectly happy like this." Tai smirked and then touched our foreheads together. He rubbed my back and I knew that all the feelings that matt had said Tai felt for me, that he was in love with me, were true. I wanted to kiss him at that precise moment, to capture our lips underneath the starry sky as the camera rose from looking down upon us as our lips touched to the moon that lie peacefully above us.
"I just want to know…know why you searched for me, Sora. I've read your writing to that magazine. You're so amazing…but why?"
"For the sole reason that a person cannot live without the one that they love." I whispered into his. "They must be together, because they are not whole until they have their other half…it's common sense, I'm sure"
"Yes, I believe that it is…"
And then the camera panned out, one last shot of us as our lips touched, an then to the bright shinning moon in the sea of stars.
~I was aiming for that to be my last chapter…..but I still have some more idea floating about inside my head for it. So you can be sure that I will update again, soon I hope.
Please review because I want to know what you thought of this chapter….it may still be kinda short, but I didn't want to focus on anything but tai and Sora being together again…..good?
