Notes: This is for my reviewers. Hehe, there will be one more chappie and I just decided that I am a depressing writer. I don't have that many stories that don't involve death. hehe.

Meryl opened her eyes to a dark abyss. Nothing near her, no pain. She was in void. She felt nothing...except sorrow. She never got to tell him. She fell unconcious before she had the chance. He doesn't know. He has to know....he has to.

'Wait...he shot me. What could have made him so mad that he was so reckless? He never shoots blankly like that. What was he thinking about?' She stopped thinking about Vash, looked around. 'Where am I? Am I....dead? Wait! I can't die yet! I have to tell Vash! I have to tell him that I love him!!'

Where's my love? It's fallen and I'm bound to it

Where's my heart? It stopped, then why am I still here?

Something's missing

'Vash...Vash I have to see you again.' She felt so empty without him. She knew that if she went he would say he wasn't worthy of love, but she had to tell him. She has to get back to him. At any cost.

Wrong...gone? Would you say it's too late?

Say something now. Say something's wrong. Say sorry.

Wrong...gone? Would you stay? It's your fate.

Something's missing

'I can't die yet. I can't leave him alone in this world.' Milly left. She was taken along with her babies. The children, were too much for her body to handle. Sextuplets, what he always wanted.

Wait this out...a promise kept ends suddenly

Close my eyes...relax, lay back and try to breathe

'I can't give up...what is that?' She looks into the distance. One...no two tall figures. Six little ones...it can't be...it is. Wolfwood. Milly, the kids. They came to welcome her. Welcome her....to heaven.

Decide my fate

Is it too late?

To change it all

And mend mistakes

She runs up to the couple "Please don't! I can't leave yet!! I have to tell him!! I have to!!"

"He already knows Meryl." Wolfwood's voice was so calm. Why? Was it good that she was dying?

"No! I can't leave yet! I just want to be down there long enough! Just long enough...enough to tell him....to say goodbye. PLEASE!! Give me that long...please." She fell to her knees sobbing. "I can't be in paradise.....not when I am in this kind of pain. I have to tell him, or this will never be paradise."

"You only have a little time." Milly patted her friend on the shoulder.

As if I would have such thoughts

And scream so loud for all it's not

She opened her eyes again, to a weeping Vash on her arm. "Vash..." He jerked up.

"Meryl! Meryl...I'm...I'm so sorry...thank you...thank you for living for me." Meryl suddenly didn't know what was coming over her as she sang to him silently, petting him softly.

"Don't say you're sorry cause sorry means something is wrong

"Don't say you're sorry...don't say you're sorry now

"And I've changed...those thoughts rang out..."

"Meryl, I..."

"Let me hurry, I can't stay long..."

"What?"

"I love you Vash....please remember that."

"Meryl what are you talking about!? You are going to be okay!" He squeezed her tightly in his arms. "You aren't going to leave me Meryl...I love you...you can't leave me...you can't!"

"Any minute now...please Vash...remember me."

"Meryl please don't...don't do this...Meryl..." He stopped squeezing her and looked at her eyes. Tears were streaming down her cheeks.

"I don't want to leave you..."

His voice became hushed. "Then don't." He leaned over to her, kissing her softly. She opened her mouth, giving him permission to kiss her deeper. He pulled away. "Please.....just don't leave."
