Chapter 13: Separation

They both knew that it was coming eventually. They would both have to go back to what they had before. This wasn't too bad for Storm, she had Zelos after all. Yuan, on the other hand, had no one to comfort him and keep him company. All he had were the Renegades, but they couldn't give him the company that he needed. He was all right before he fell in love with Storm, he had accepted being alone. After being alone for so long, after losing Martel, he had come to accept his situation. But since she had been with him, it was back on his mind once again and it drove him insane. He didn't want her out of his life, not when he knew that she was out there for him to be with. He wanted to be with her, but he knew that he couldn't.

Storm was riding on the back of the Rheihard with Yuan as they flew over the landscape. She looked down and thought about what had happened over the last few weeks. She knew that she had Zelos back home, but she wasn't sure if she could go back to him and act as if nothing had happened. It was going to be hard, she knew that Yuan would be in her mind a lot. She couldn't be with him though and it hurt her. Of course, no matter how much she loved Yuan she couldn't deny that she loved Zelos immensely. Zelos always had her heart and nothing would change that, he was her first love after all. Yuan couldn't exactly compete with that, she would never leave Zelos.

Storm tightened her grip around Yuan a little more as she thought about all this. She was so confused with everything. She didn't know what was going to happen between them, if things would continue somehow or if it would all fall apart. She didn't want her relationship with Yuan to end, but she couldn't risk losing her relationship with Zelos too.

Soon, the rheihard began to descend as the two came up to Meltokio. Yuan got off first and helped Storm get off after him. Neither said anything to the other. The tension was thick between the two as they stood there, dreading to say goodbye. Finally, Storm decided to make the first move.

"Yuan...I really don't want to say goodbye..." she began, but was cut off quickly by Yuan.

"Then you don't have to. You don't have to leave me," he said quickly and eagerly.

"But you know that I have to. You know I love Zelos too," she said as she looked at him sadly, trying her hardest not to hurt his feelings too badly.

Yuan sighed a little and his sad expression came back to his face. It broke Storm's heart to see him so depressed, but there was nothing she could do. "So, does that mean it's over? I can't see you anymore?" he asked her.

"Well, maybe I can see you sometime. Maybe there can be some errand I need to run at the Renegade base. I won't be able to see you a lot though. Every once in awhile, that's all I can promise," she told him.

"I can handle that, and I'll be waiting until he come," he told her as he hugged her tightly.

As he held her she heard him whisper lightly in her ear. "I love you Storm."

She smiled a little at this before she made her reply. "I love you too Yuan."

After one last kiss it was time for Storm to make her way into the city. Yuan sat on the Rheihard as she walked away from him. She waved once before actually walking into the city. Yuan wanted to make sure she made it back as he followed after her. He watched her as she made her way along the streets as he fought against the stream of people in the road. He didn't want her to see him sneaking along behind her, but he had to watch her until she got back.

Finally, they came up to Storm's house. Storm stopped, seeing Zelos sitting outside on the porch. She smiled wildly and ran to him. Zelos jumped out of his seat when he saw her and he welcomed her with open arms as she ran to him. They held onto each other as if they were each other's lifeline. Finally, when they let go Storm and Zelos exchanged a few words that Yuan couldn't quite make out, but soon he saw their lips meet before they headed inside together.

Yuan hated it, seeing her happy with another man, but he knew that she loved Zelos and that Zelos loved her. He knew that she was in good hands with him and only hoped that she wouldn't forget about the relationship that they formed over the last few weeks. He would see her again, he would make sure that this wasn't the last time that they would feel love towards each other.


Well, that's the end of the story. It's really short I know, don't hate me but I wanted to get it over with. I probably could have just added this at the end of the last chapter, but I wanted it by itself. Anyway, I hope you enjoyed the story, even though the ending is a little sad. But, we all know that they obviously don't lose feelings for each other. Anyway, hope you liked it and I hope you enjoy the upcoming story as well. Well, thanks for reading and please review.
