Chapter 3 – All I Ever Wanted


Let me wake up in your arms...
Hear you say it's not alright...
Let me be self dead and gone...
So far away from life.
Close my eyes.
Hold me tight.
And bury me deep inside your heart.

"So...Starfire...We meet again. I knew you wouldn't disappoint me," the young man said as he walked from behind a tree.

Since it was broad daylight, Starfire could see all of his features clearly. She stared at him, unsure if she should run or stay. She winced as her headache came back. I shouldn't think so much... It's hurting my head, she thought silently. Choosing to stay, she took in his appearance.

All I ever wanted was you, my love...
You...all I ever wanted is you, my love.
You're all I ever wanted, just you.

He was tall. Maybe about 6'2". In the light he looked like he was 17.He had shoulder-length black hair that shone brightly in the sun, cut at jagged edges. His face was sculpted very nicely, giving him a kind of 'perfect' look. Starfire knew he wasn't perfect, though. Perfect people aren't thieves. She continued to look over him. He had a nice body, he looked strong, but not in a heavyweight wrestler type. She looked back up at him, sadly admitting that he was pretty 'cute'.

The thing that caught her eye most was his striking grey eyes. She could very well stare at them all day. They were a deep color of grey, like a rainy-day sky. They made him look so forlorn. Suddenly, she wanted to make them look happy. Shaking her head, she finally remembered that he was more than a picture.

He smirked and raised a dark eyebrow. "Like what you see, Miss?" he said in a cocky, smart-ass attitude, bending into a bow for added effect. He kept his eyes on her at all times, though. He didn't want her running away. Not when they were all alone; not when she was so near.

Starfire shook her head and looked away. "No..." She paused, gathering her thoughts. "W-what's your name? Why did you want to meet me?" she questioned curiously. She was actually sort-of grateful that she didn't have to be alone, but she would rather have had better company. She leaned back against the tree she was sitting at, now looking intently at him.

Let me never see the sun...
And never see your smile...
Let us be so dead and so gone,
So far away from life.
Just close my eyes...
Hold me tight...
And bury me deep inside your heart...

"Ahh... Am I that pleasing that you must ask for my name? Well, well, can't disappoint the lady," he replied softly. He bowed once more, grinning. "The name is Matsaku Ryusaki, mademoiselle. And for you other question...I wanted to be alone with you." He walked over to her and got onto his knees, taking her hand in his and deftly kissing it in such a way that made her tingle.

Starfire quickly pulled her away and wiped it on her clothes. Matsaku looked a little hurt at that, but recovered quickly. Sitting down beside her, he looked at the forest around them. "These colors are fantastic... The yellows, browns, oranges...reds..." he said, looking at her as he stated the last color, admiring her hair. She didn't notice, for she was staring at the colors too.

"Yes, they are very beautiful. One wonders why they can't stay like this year-round. I do not care much for the color of green," she said softly. Matsaku frowned at that. "But why not? I must say, I don't like it much either, except...when I see your eyes I fall in love with it." Starfire looked over to him, those green eyes widening at what he was saying.

Matsaku smiled at her, a very sincere smile, one that could melt someone's heart. Starfire wouldn't give in to his smile, and stood up. She brushed some of the leaves off of her body and started walking away. When Matsaku realized that she was walking away, he jumped up and followed her.

"Starfire, you must listen to what I have to say," he said urgently. "I've been watching you for so long. You don't kn-" Starfire turned around and cut him off. "Matsaku, I have no wish to converse with you any further. I do not want to associate with villains of any kind. Please, leave me be." Her voice was calm, and cold. From all the days of secretly watching her, Matsaku had never seen Starfire's eyes so...unfeeling. He was momentarily puzzled on how she could be like that. Starfire took this opportunity to turn again and walk away.

Regaining his thoughts, Matsaku ran after her again. He laid his hand on her shoulder, stopping her and turning her toward him. "Listen to me Starfire. Please. I...I love you."

All I ever wanted was you, my love.
You...all I ever wanted is you, my love..
You're all I ever wanted, you, oh my love...
You're all I ever wanted, you, my love..

Starfire stopped at those words. She stared at him, her jaw hanging down. She closed her eyes slowly, then opened them again. Both Starfire and Matsaku started to blush simultaneously. They stood there, looking at each other, not saying a word, not moving an inch.

Matsaku couldn't take anymore of this. He slowly leaned in, closing the space between them. Starfire lifted her lips up to his, a plan forming in her head. Matsaku brushed his lips across hers, causing her to part hers just slightly. She anticipated this movement of his, but didn't resist. He lifted a hand up to the back of her head, pulling it closer to him. He continued the kiss, wrapping his other arm around her waist, pressing her against a tree and he gently, sweetly ravaged her mouth with his kisses. She lost all thought of what she was going to do and responded greatly to him, bringing both of her hands up to cup his face, throwing all plans to the wind.

That's the way it's always been.
My heart stops beating only for you, baby.
Only for your loving.

They continued like that for a few more beautiful moments, until Starfire snapped back into the cold, hard reality that was there. Her eyes brimmed with tears, her lower lip trembling as she realized what she had just done. She pulled her head away from his, and then pushed his body off of hers. Matsaku was taken off guard as she ran away from him.

I must go, quickly! Starfire thought to herself. She paused for a moment, then decided to fly. She didn't know where she was going to go, but she had to go. She chose a direction and flew. She traveled higher, up to a point where she could barely breathe and her limbs started to freeze. She traveled in that climate for as long as she could take. She gradually lowered herself down some, but had really worn her body out. She fought for consciousness, her vision becoming blurry and black. She continued to fly, but only succeeded for a few more moments before falling out of the sky, plummeting to the ground at a frightfully dangerous speed.

All I ever wanted was you, my love.
You...all I ever wanted is you, my love..
You're all I ever wanted, you, my love...
You're all I ever wanted, you, my love..


Oh my gosh. I am soooo sorry! I've taken forever! I guess it's just been writer's block or something. Maybe that's why this chapter wasn't as good. Oh welp. I hope it's good enough for your liking. :)
