Many thanks on this one to Lil-Samuu...firstly, for the idea of the "sisterly bond" that Colette and Sheena share in this story, as well as the mentions...and secondly, for the inspiration to try more fluffy stuff.It's not really my strength, so it only comes after reading good fluffy stuff. If you haven't read her works, you should try...they haveawayof making someonefeel good about the world again. Thanks again!

Stupid Chosen…

-

Over the past few months,
Our entire group has changed quite a bit.
I am no exception to this change…
And I must admit, it's done me a lot of good.

I was once the one assigned to be an assassin,
To kill the Chosen of Sylvarant, to save our world…
I was unsuccessful at my task…
And although I usually hate failing…

I found that it wasn't all bad…
After all, the very same girl I tried to kill,
Is now my best friend, and my "little sis…"
Even Lloyd, Genis, and Raine…

They are all my friends now.
And even some folks from my own world…
Presea, Regal…and yes, Zelos…
That STUPID Chosen…

I guess you could say I have changed a lot.
But some things just don't change…do they?

Zelos is still a careless playboy.
He still flirts with all the ladies…
Frig, he flirts with almost anything female!
He never ceases to surprise me…

Is it even possible, that for just one day,
Can he NOT talk to every girl,
Every lady, and every old woman on the path?
Can he just be a "nice, little boy" for ONCE?

It's like he doesn't care…
Not about who he's with, or who likes him…
After all, with all those girls, who could?
Grr, he infuriates me…

Dub i-dub i-dub-i-dub-dub-dub…
Dub i-dub i-dub-i yeah, yeah…
Dub i-dub i-dub-i-dub-dub-dub…
I don't need your love…

Dub i-dub i-dub-i-dub-dub-dub…
Dub i-dub i-dub-i yeah, yeah…
Dub i-dub i-dub-i-dub-dub-dub…
I don't need your love…anymore…

Well, I don't need his cheap talk.
If he wants to play it that way, fine!
Who needs that loser of a Chosen anyway?
I don't care…!

I don't need you here by my side,
No more, no more…
And when I feel your love deep inside,
I will forget, oh yeah…

I'm tired of his sweet-talk…
You know, once, I really fell for it.
I really thought he had eyes for only me…
I was swooning, just like all the other girls…

So don't you dare come knockin' on my door,
When you need someone to hold…
'Cause every door and window will close…
I can live…live without your love…

And then, at that very moment…
He chose to go off and talk to some other priss.
One of the really stuck-up ones too.
What a stand-up…I still remember…

Dub i-dub i-dub-i-dub-dub-dub…
Dub i-dub i-dub-i yeah, yeah…
Dub i-dub i-dub-i-dub-dub-dub…
I don't need your love…

Dub i-dub i-dub-i-dub-dub-dub…
Dub i-dub i-dub-i yeah, yeah…
Dub i-dub i-dub-i-dub-dub-dub…
I don't need your love…anymore…

Doesn't he care about who they are inside?
It's like he can't see inside of us…
He just sees the hair, the dress, and says "Hey!"
I bet he'd flirt with a man if he dressed the wrong way…

You left me and you went away…
Yeah-yeah, yeah-yeah…yea…
And now you say you're back to stay…
No way, no way…!

But you know, Zelos Wilder,
I'm done with you! Done with your lies,
Done with your silly little "hunny" speech.
Because I've heard it all…and I can't take it anymore.

And don't you dare come knockin' on my door,
When you need someone to hold…
'Cause every door and window will close…
I can live…live without your love…

I'm tired of the "voluptuous hunny" bull.
I'm tired of watching you flirt and fool about.
I'm tired of waiting for you to come back to me…
Because I don't believe you anymore…

Dub i-dub i-dub-i-dub-dub-dub…
Dub i-dub i-dub-i yeah, yeah…
Dub i-dub i-dub-i-dub-dub-dub…
I don't need your love…

Dub i-dub i-dub-i-dub-dub-dub…
Dub i-dub i-dub-i yeah, yeah…
Dub i-dub i-dub-i-dub-dub-dub…
I don't need your love…anymore…

Love…feh. Who thought of that rubbish?
Whoever did was an IDIOT. A big one.
Just take one look at our ridiculous Chosen.
Why couldn't he be better-natured…like Colette?

Love is cold, yeah…
I don't need your love…
Love is cold, yeah…
I don't need-

I'm not going to listen to one more "hunny."
The next time I hear that word, I swear…
He's going to know the meaning of "pain."
Maybe Volt would be too kind…

Dub i-dub i-dub-i-dub-dub-dub…
Dub i-dub i-dub-i yeah, yeah…
Dub i-dub i-dub-i-dub-dub-dub…
I don't need your love…

Dub i-dub i-dub-i-dub-dub-dub…
Dub i-dub i-dub-i yeah, yeah…
Dub i-dub i-dub-i-dub-dub-dub…
I don't need your love…anymore…

As I walk about, fuming,
Guess who I had to run into…
Dumb Chosen…had to swat him away.
He does NOT know when to leave a woman alone…

I gave him a dose of his own medicine…
After all, he can't get any stupider!
Efreet made crispy toast of his "lovely hair."
Serves him right…

As I finally find some peace with my little sis,
I find myself venting at her…and she just listens…
I wish Zelos could be so compassionate…
…wait, what am I saying…?

Why am I even mad in the first place…?
Is it because I actually feel jealous for him?
NO. Haha…it can't be. That's silly…
Right…it is silly…isn't it…?

Colette only shakes her head at me.
She giggles, softly, before glancing to him.
I don't understand her sometimes…
I mean, it's not because I like him or anything…

Night has finally come. Thank the Goddess.
Finally, I can start to find some closure…
Something to end this damned day.
Something to stop this horrid chain of events.

I do NOT like Zelos Wilder.
How many times more must I say it?
There is nothing good about the guy.
Nothing! Nothing…

It is finally my turn for night watch.
Something else to do…
This whole Zelos thing is really bugging me.
I guess I can finally let it sit…

I turn my head, and notice my sister.
Colette is snuggled up into Lloyd again…
There is something in that embrace…
And I feel almost envious of her…

She has found something so special…
Something I once felt. For Zelos.
And now, I hate the stupid idiot.
I wish he'd just leave me alone…

Maybe it's because he always flirts with me.
Maybe it's because he flirts with everyone.
Maybe it's because he's never serious.
Maybe it's because I don't accept him for who he is.

Or maybe…it's because I do care.
If there was another ear in the area,
You'd never hear otherwise…
But in the loneliness of the night…

I can only say it but once.
I do care, Zelos Wilder. I do.
I hate it when you flirt with the others…
Because it makes me feel…incompetent.

I feel as if I'm not good enough for you.
I feel as if you don't care about me.
I worry, Zelos, because when you turn away,
I feel as if I can't continue on.

Of course, there are other times…
Times when you are just plain insensitive.
But for the most part, you seem to notice.
And you do care. You do…

I move softly to your side…
I do not want to wake the others…
And as I finally find a nice place to sit,
I muster up my courage…

Sad, isn't it? I have to brave myself,
Just to talk to your sleeping form.
You may be an idiot, but I'm not much better…
I smile inwardly. We are both idiots.

But, I was mean to you today.
I whisper a light "sorry" into your ear…
And I peck your cheek, before returning to post.
That was hard…

But, as I glance back, I see a smile.
You sly…ahh, forget it.
I'm happy just to see that smile…
Because it says all I need to hear.

I finally sigh…my watch is over.
Presea replaces me, and I walk over to my stuff.
I unroll my bag, and crawl in.
Finally some rest.

But you know, I was wrong.
I can't live without you, Zelos…
Because I love you too…
My stupid Chosen…
