Author's Note: Okay folks this one is a tearjerker and it is a request by MiniJen. This song is from one of the most famous musicals Les Miserables, so you know it is a tearjerker. Anyway this one is set in the original UF and set in' my opinion' during the final moments of Greg and Rose.
A Little Fall of Rain.
"What-what happened?"
One moment he was outside the temple helping Rose give birth and now after a bright light from her gem, Greg found himself in pink void.
Rose.
Greg looked around, trying to find any signs of her. "Rose! Rose where are you?!"
"Greg."
It was soft, quiet, and weak but Greg heard it clear as if it was right next to him.
Greg turned around fast just a couple of feet away sat Rose. Greg ran as fast as he could to her.
"Rose what happened where are…" but Greg stopped as he looked in shock when he stood in front of her.
There sat Rose holding near to her gem a small white orb that was starting to slowly take shape.
Rose's gave a tied weak smile, "I don't know what happened," she smiled down at the object she held close, "Nothing like this has ever happened before. I only wished that Ford was here, he would have love to see this."
Greg sat down next to her looking at the changing object, "Rose….is that…."
But before he could finish Rose rested her head on his shoulder and brought the object close to him.
"He is not ready just let," she said as she and Greg saw her gem slowly breaking apart and one by one pieces of the gem started to flow and reform on the object as it slowly continued to change. "But he will be soon."
Greg smiled he looked at Rose but was started as she started to lose the colors of her face and hair but her smile remained, then just like her the void started to lose it's pink color slowly as rain started to fall matching the tears that Greg was sheading.
"Rose…"
Rose put her finger on Greg's lips then put her whole hand on his cheek.
Rose: Don't you fret, my dear Universe.
I don't feel any pain.
A little fall of rain.
Can hardly hurt me now
A raindrop touched her face as it slide down from her cheek.
You're here, that's all I need to know.
And you will keep me safe.
And you will keep me close.
And rain will make the flowers grow.
Greg held the object and Rose tight to him as his buried his head in her hair.
Greg: But you have to live as well, please Rose don't go!
If I could heal you now with words of love.
Rose touched Greg's hand and moved it to the object and rested on what appears to be a head.
Rose: Just hold us now, and let it be.
Shelter me, comfort me.
Greg smiled sadly at the object and at his dying love as he looked down upon her.
Greg: I would only wish, you stayed with us.
I wished that I knew how.
But I won't desert you now…
Rose: The rain can't hurt me now.
This rain will wash away what's past.
And you will keep me safe.
And you will keep me close.
I'll sleep in your embrace at last.
Rose then placed the object in Greg's hands as she gently laid herself down on the ground, Greg tried to help but she placed her hand on his chest stopping him then moved it onto the object's hand as a face started to form on it.
Rose: The day that we first met, was heaven-blessed!
The skies begin to clear.
And I'm at rest.
A breath away from where you are I've come home from so far.
Then the object started to glow bright pink as both Greg and Rose watched it and each other.
Rose (Greg): So don't you fret, my dear Universe (Hush-a-bye, My dear Rose)
I don't feel any pain (You won't feel any pain)
A little fall of rain (A little fall of rain)
Can hardly hurt me now (Can hardly hurt you now)
Then the glow faded, and what was once a formless object was now a crying baby boy and on his stomach a pink gem.
Greg smiled at his newborn son.
Greg: He's here.
Greg gasped as he looked at Rose. She was starting to fade away but still she smiled as she rest her hand on her son's head with tears of joy on her face.
Rose: That's all I need to know
With what little strength she had left Rose guided her hand to Greg's and held it tight.
Rose (Greg): And you will keep him safe (We will stay by you)
And you will keep him close (Till you are sleeping)
And rain… (And rain…)
Will make the flowers (Will make the flowers)
With one last smile Rose's form finally faded away and the void with her leaving Greg back outside as he held his son close to him with tears both in their eyes.
Greg:...grow
The temple echoed with the newborns cry as Greg held him tight as he cried with him. Garnet stood covering her face while amethyst hugged her leg, Pearl stood away from the entrance as he banged her fist at the temple door as she cried harder then anyone.
Stan stood far from the temple but almost near Greg as he took of his fez and placed it near his chest.
No one noticed that a small rose bud sprouted from the ground where Rose once laid.
Where one life ends, another begins.
The End.
Author's Note, Dang it! Here comes the water works. I literally cried at the end of this. I hope your happy MiniJen! You made me cry writing this!
