I Love You.

The calming sound of the ocean's waves made Kid wander off in her thoughts, she had forgotten for a split second why she was here but the thought quickly flooded back into her mind. Here she was at Opassa Beach where she last saw Serge before they had seperated, she felt empty though. It had only been about a year and for some reason she felt as if she would never get over losing him. Although she hadn't shown any emotion since that day, she hadn't cried, she hadn't spoken to anyone about it. Sure, she had seen some of her friends from the grand adventure but they had never asked because they had sinced her pain. Kid couldn't mourn out loud, she had to keep it inside of her. Because she was afraid she wouldn't seem as tough if she didn't.

Looking down at the sand she sighed and swallowed uneaisly. They stood on this ground together a year ago, they kissed here a year ago, they made love here a year ago. Everything had happened in one day, a year ago...and it hurt her a bit to think about it. Why was she here? Why had she wanted to come back to the place that she had avoided for so long to try to forget...no, she didn't want to forget...

"I can't believe I'm here mate..." She spoke slowly as if Serge were hear listening to her. She wanted him to know that she missed him and she wished she could tell him that face to face.

"It's been...forever it seems since ya been 'ere..." Kid looked up at the water and seen a sunset becoming slowly visible to her eyes. Why was this happening this way?

"I just want to tell ya that I've been missin' ya mate. I wish I could see your face...I wish I could feel you again..." Kid blinked back a tear. Don't cry, you can't cry. Ya hear? You can't cry...

She slumped into the sand on her knees and looked down at the tiny specks that glinstened slightly in the remaining sunlight from it's settting. She tried to pinpoint the exact spot where they had made love, soon she realized that she was sitting on the spot. Smiling she ran her fingers through the sand, as she wondered if Serge had been sitting here before in the other world, and if he was thinking about her right now, if he could remember...

"I want ya to remember, you hafta remember mate. I want you to remember the last night we had together, I want ya to remember what we shared, what we gave up for each other..." She whispered almost so quiet that no one could hear if they had been listening. After a few moments Kid kept thinking, and then worse thoughts intruded her mind.

What if Serge and Leena are married now?

What if they had kids together?

What if Serge is dead?

What if...Serge is dead?

Kid shook her head quickly and rubbed her forehead with one hand to try to get the thought to escape. "No, no. You're not dead mate. Ya can't be..." She took a deep breath and reassured herself that he wasn't dead. No, he's well alive. And she knew it in her heart. Kid bit her lip hard and almost drew blood, she started to cry all of a sudden. Tears fell into the sad as night approached as she wished and begged for Serge to be there with her, she wished he could hold her, wished that he would dry away her tears and tell her that everything would be okay and alright. But he wasn't. He was gone, gone forever. And that now had suddenly hit her.

He was gone.

Forever.

She would be alone.

Forever.

She would have to live her life here on this beach, crying day and night and wishing he was here and he never would be.

Because he's in the other world, with another women, with his own family maybe. Living a nice healthy life because he doesn't remember her, he doesn't remember Kid...

"You don't remember me, 'she' said ya wouldn't mate..." Kid covered her eyes and cried more at all this, all of these emotions that she had held up in her mind for so long were now being let free.

He doesn't remember you Kid, you could see him today and he would think you're another stranger. You would talk to him and he would answer with a puzzled look and ask, "Who are you?" And then you would know, you would know that he doesn't remember a thing about you. You would tell him about the adventures you had had together and he would tell you that "You've got the wrong person." No matter how much you try to convince him he'll never remember. He'll never regain those memories back, because if he did, then nothing would be fixed.

Kid, you were made to save him. You were created so you could fix what had happened so everyone could live a normal life. But the downside would be was that you would have to live with the fact that he would never remember you. You weren't supposed to fall in love with him, you weren't supposed to become so close. You were only to save him and then live your life alone until you died. Now you're worthless. You have no position here on earth anymore. You're nothing but a tiny speck waiting to dissolve into the sea like everyone else. You'll never be famous and you'll never have another love. Because you're only a clone, only a clone. How can you love? Who could love you? You're not real, you're artifical. Nothing, a ghost almost. Just like Serge was, you were both nothing then. But he is something now, he is something with Leena. He has a family. You don't, you have no mother, you have no father. All you have is yourself and those bitter, tasteless memories where you have to suffer every single day because you remember. You do.

"Enough!" She screamed at the voice in her head, but it didn't seem to stop. The voice was making her cry harder, these thoughts making her grab her dagger and hold it at her throat.

Killing yourself won't matter, because nobody will realize that you're gone. Because you are a nothing. You've been created for one purpose and you've already served it. So do it Kid, kill yourself. You would only be doing yourself a favor. Nobody cares about you kid.

Serge doesn't care about you.

"Yes...he does..." She suddenly became angry with the voice in her head and she froze. Was she becoming crazy? She was going crazy, she was turning insane.

"Kid..."

Kid's thoughts halted, like brakes coming to a squeaky stop. Who's voice was that? It wasn't the voice in her head any longer, it was a human voice, and it was right behind her. Slowly she turned and there stood a tall young man. Very handsome he was, muscular built and had shoulder length dark hair. He had beautiful blue eyes, oh those eyes. She could never forget those eyes.

"Serge..." Her tears kept sliding down her face and she didn't bother to wipe them away. They both stood there, about eight feet apart and staring at each other. Neither one of them knew how they got here, both confused.

"How are you...here mate?" Kid sniffled and still stood her ground, just incase this was a setup. But how could it be? It seemed so...real...

"I don't know..." He admitted and suddenly they both ran for each other, wrapping their arms around the other and crying. They stood there with arms encircled and tears dripping on clothes. This was all a sudden moment, all a sudden dream come true.

"I've missed you so damn much mate." Kid spoke against his neck and he nodded, holding her against him so close because he was afraid that she would slip away. Night carried on and they had dried each other's tears and then sat down in the cool sand. It didn't take them long to kiss, the first kiss since forever it had seemed. The kiss where both lips were pressed against each other and then a slight open mouth moment where they felt each other's hot breath and tasted the other's tongue. When it had seemed like there was no more breath left they pulled apart and smiled.

Serge then pulled Kid onto his lap and she laid her back against his chest, both of them staring into the ocean. Now was the time to start the serious questions, about what the hell was going on...

"So, how did you get here?" Kid said seriously, shifting her feet in the sand below them. It was now dark, and only light was the moon and the billions of stars. Serge cleared his throat and sighed, honestly, he didn't know how to answer her. He had no idea how he got here exactly.

"I'm...not sure. I just remember waking up in the Termina Inn and once I walked out I realized that this was the other world. And I came here by instinct, I don't know why I thought you would be here...but you were." He rubbed her lower back with one hand and she continued to stare off into the distance, still unsure of this.

"So you just woke up here...?" She asked slightly confused, what was going on? She thought that the portal they had once used was permanently closed. This meant that everything couldn't have been fixed. Serge nodded as his answer and she sat there thinking. Wait, why was she worried about this all of a sudden? He was here, he was here, holding her. He was...here.

"Why are we just sittin' 'ere?" She suddenly demanded out into the night air. Serge only blinked and began to wonder the same thing.

"We're together again! You're here! I'm here! So let's..." Kid stopped herself before she said it. Yeah, they had sex before they left each other, but would it be different now? Now they were back together, she had no idea if he was with Leena now. But honestly, would it matter at all?

"Let's...?" He questioned slowly, a little antcipation in his voice. Kid swallowed and scooted off of him and into the sand, turning to face him.

"Are ya with...Leena?" Kid asked with a worried look on her face. Serge stared into her eyes for a moment, oh how he had missed those eyes. Except now they looked serious and searching him answers. Was he was Leena? Hell no.

"No, no. I'm not, never would I be with her." He said firmly, shaking his head quickly. Kid grinned and she looked down at the sand, it was gleaming slightly. She slowly wrote out the message that she had wrote a year ago today.

"I love you..."
