I have to admit, the worst things can bring out the best in some people.

I had only gone to see Sora maybe twice within the week; it hurt too much to see him in his condition everyday.

I had noticed that before he was placed into the hospital, some of his hair was missing.

Now he was completely hairless. I couldn't help but to want to ruffle those brown locks of his once more. I had only done so once.

I remember how he confessed to me, how he said those four simple words that meant so much.

"I love you, Yuffs."

Take these broken wings and learn to fly.

I started to lose a few memories of Sora. First, it was his voice.

Then, the soft feeling of his skin brushing against mine.

Finally, the silky texture of his soft brown hair, of which always seemed so untameable.

Just like his attitude.

It kills me to think how much he infuriated me, provoked me.

He was such a loveable guy, I was only starting to get to know the real him a few days before he was driven off to the hospital.

The only other thing that I remember now is his last words, before I was informed of his death.

"Be happy, Yuffie. Be happy."

All your life,
You were only waiting for this moment to arise.

"Yuffie, I'm really sorry."

Roxas.

For some reason, the blonde reminds me a lot of Sora.

I smiled and took Roxas' hand.

"Where to, Yuffs?"

"A walk around town would be great." I said, with a smile.

I expected to see a chestnut haired, cobalt eyed stud sitting at the corner of Main street and Gains.

I swore I saw him again on a bench outside of Pac Sun, smiling up at me.

Take these sunken eyes and learn to see
All your life
You were only waiting for this moment to be free.

"Strawberry and chocolate, please." Roxas said to the ice cream shopkeeper.

As I sucked at the icy strawberry substance, I looked up.

Roxas was laughing.

How could he-

He reached for my face, brushing away a few dots of ice cream on my nose.

We looked like the saddest pair, decked out in all black from the funeral. And we were laughing.

Weird sight.

Yee-ah.

Blackbird fly, Blackbird fly
Into the light of a dark black night.

Something told me everything was gonna be fine.

We were at my house.

Roxas leant in and embraced me in a tight hug. I couldn't help but look at the dimly lit house across the street.

It seemed as if he still lived there.

I tore my gaze away, and slightly pulled away from Roxas.

I smiled a little, and whispered a thank you.

Within that moment, I had realised that I hadn't done anything to thank Roxas for everything he'd ever done for me.

As much as I hate to admit it, he had done so much more for me than Sora had.

I kissed him.

I sort of felt like I was betraying Sora, but we never were together. Only in my dreams. Sora wanted me to be happy anyway.

Roxas was too perfect to not be more-than-friends with.

Take these broken wings and learn to fly.
All your life,
You were only waiting for this moment to arise.

Like I said, I knew that from the first moment that I had seen Sora, he'd change my life.

You were only waiting for this moment... to arise.

He changed it, alright.
