This is a really short one-time fic that I wrote at like five in the morning. Hope you like it.

I had been stargazing on Besaid beach when I heard a whistle sound out. I thought it was just a gull but there were none flying in the night sky. A child? No, they were all asleep by now. You? But…
The whistle rang out again over by the dock. I hesitantly walked towards it, trying to not let my impossible hope soar too high. I heard it again, but it was closer this time. I broke into a sprint and went out on to the dock, eyes searching for your face, but I saw no one. My hope crashed and I dejectedly turned to go home when a whistle sounded by the foot of the dock. I walked to the edge and knelt down staring at the object borne by the water.
What was there I'll never forget. It was your necklace draped over a piece of driftwood as though you had put it there just for me. I reached for it gingerly, afraid that it might disappear at any second and I'll wake up from a dream. My fingertips brushed it and I felt the cool water wash up, caressing my hand as though it were a sleeping kitten. I picked it up by the chain and held it up in the moonlight, the water carrying away the log it was once on. A whistle sounded out across the water. I whistled back for the rest of the night, but you didn't answer.
I was there, whistling, when Lulu found me at sunrise. I didn't show her your necklace, knowing that she would tell me that I should put away my foolish hope and accept the fact that you were dead. I walked with her off the dock when you whistled back. Lulu looked at me surprised, the realization that maybe my hope wasn't as foolish as she thought it was. Instead of whistling this time I clutched your necklace near my heart and whispered to the sea the words that were in it.
I walked home, the rising sun at my back, as the sea carried my words to some magical place where you were, waiting to hear them. I knew then in my heart of hearts that we would be reunited again some day. Until then though, I'll dream of you always…
Please R&R! And if you have any suggestions for me I will gladly take them since I'm still trying to come up with my own writing style!
