Here's the first chapter. The pairing is Colloyd and the song is Ordinary Day by Vanessa Carlton. Enjoy!
Just a day, Just an
ordinary day
Just tryin' to get by
Colette looked around. She felt like such an outcast. The males kept eying her, the females glaring at her for getting the attention. It reminded her of her early days in Isalia. No one wanted her, only Phaidra and Frank really cared about her.
If she could just find Lloyd, then everything would be alright. He was always there for her, when ever she needed someone. He was the one she went to when she was sad and needed a shoulder to cry on. He was the one she found when she was happy and wanted to share her joy. Anything she wanted show, and sometimes even things she didn't want to show, he knew about it.
Just a boy, Just an
ordinary boy, but
He was looking to the
sky.
After fifteen minutes of searching, a fateful push finally revealed him. Unfortunately,
thanks to the push, the closeness of Lloyd, and her own clumsy nature, she knocked into Lloyd. They both ended up on the floor. Thankfully he hadn't started on the food.
"Oh, Lloyd, are you okay? I'm so sorry..." she managed to get out that much. She was too embarrassed for words.
"I'm fine. Don't worry." he said, kindly. Colette gazed into his chocolate brown eyes. One could drown in those eyes... Then she realized she was still on top of him.
"I... uh... um... Please accept my apology!" She said out of habit.
"I told you, it's all right. Your fine. Here, lemme help you up." He got up and held his hand out to her.
Colette's heart told her to take his hand.
"You wanna get something to eat?" he asked.
"...S...sure..."
Lloyd was so strong. He knew just what he wanted. And he always tried to get it. He was always trying to make to make the world better, trying to make the suffering less. His will was unbendable. It was that will that saved her and told her that she could have the life she desired.
And as he asked if I
would come along
I started to realize
That everyday you find
Just what he's looking
for
Like a shooting star,
he shines.
"Yum, this all looks so good..." Lloyd was drooling over the feast. Colette had to admit, it was a pretty impressive layout.
After filling his plate, Lloyd said, "Hey, I have an idea! Let's eat on the roof!"
Colette thought that sounded grand.
"Here, let's go!" he said, holding out his hand.
He said take my hand
Live while you can
Don't you see your
dreams are right here in the palm of your hand.
"No one is allowed on the roof!"
"What!? Why not?"
"Princess Hilda's orders. Beside she would disgusted if she knew commoners were coming on to the roof."
"Why should we care what some princess or anyone thinks! We were invited to this party and we should get the same respect as everyone else!"
Colette had a feeling. Lloyd said that she get the same respect as everyone else. He thought that she should life as everyone else. She now knew it was true, because Lloyd said so.
As
he spoke, he spoke ordinary words
Although
they did not feel
For
I felt what had not felt before
You'd
swear those words could heal.
Lloyd turned around. He looked at Colette. Colette gazed at him. His Chocolate eyes, hazel hair, tan skin, and muscular body. He was handsome, more than he thought. He had probably got the attention of a few girls this evening.
And
as I looked up into those eyes
His
vision borrows mine.
And
I know his know he's no stranger
For I feel I've held him for all of time.
"Come on, Colette. Let's find a back way out!"
"Ah, Sure, Lloyd!"
They found the way to the roof. The moon was out, the stars were shining, the air was clear.
"You know, food tastes better outside."
"...Yeah..."
"Hey Colette."
"Yes, Lloyd?"
"Does this party seem a little... I don't know... stiff?"
"Yeah, I think so, too..."
And he said take my
hand
Live while you can
Don't you see your
dreams are right here in the palm of you hand
Right in the palm of
your hand.
"You wanna go flying?"
"Flying?"
"With our wings, silly!"
"But what if somebody see us?"
"Not if we fly in the other direction! Come on!" He held out his hand.
Colette wanted to go... but if someone saw her... She could get in trouble... Even worse, Lloyd could get in trouble... She'd never live it down...
"Go with him." said a voice. "It will be fine. You can trust him. In fact, you already trust him with your very soul."
Realizing this was completely true, and that her heart was yelling at her to take his hand, she decided to chance it. She toke his hand.
"Here we go!" He jumped off the roof. They released their wings.
Please come with me
They flew over the country side. Over Flanoir, around the Fooji Mountains, past Heimdall, under Exire, through Ozette.
See what I see
Lloyd was rushing over the ocean, his huge wings dropping feathers everywhere. Colette had smaller wings, so all she dropped was angel dust. But she saw that Lloyd was having the time of his life.
Touch
the stars for
Time
will not flee.
Colette looked at Lloyd like she never had before. She wanted to be with Lloyd forever and ever. She wanted to be by his side when he went into adulthood, and when he became old. She had seen him through toddlers, then children, then pre-teens, and teenagers. She had thought it true before; Now she was certain. She loved him, and loved him even more now.
Time will not flee
Can you be
"Good morning, Miss Angel!"
"Get out of our room, Zelos!"
Colette tried to grasp what had happened. Then she remembered. She was in love with Lloyd.
Then she thought: Had it all been a dream? Was all that just a dream?
Just
a dream, just an ordinary dream
As
I wake in bed
And
the boy, that boy, that ordinary boy
Was
it all in my head
"Where's Lloyd?"
"Lloyd? He's downstairs. He's really hungry. Not that it's anything new."
Did
he ask if I would come along
It
all seemed so real
Colette ran downstairs. This couldn't wait another minute. She had to tell him, she had to.
She found him. He was finishing with his meal and was putting his dishes away.
"Lloyd!"
He looked in her direction. "Colette!"
"Lloyd, I have something to tell you!"
"Really? Me too!"
"You first!"
"Well, when went flying last night, I realized something! Colette, can't live without you! I want you with me until the end of time! I love you, Colette!"
But
as I looked to the door
I
saw that boy, standing there with a deal
Colette felt her heart sore. He loved her! He needed her!
"Lloyd! I love you, too! I was coming down to tell you and... Lloyd, I love so much!"
She leaped into his arms.
And
he said Take my hand
Live
while you can
Don't
you see you dreams are right here in the palm of you hand
In
the palm of your hand
In
the palm of your hand.
They hugged, kissed, and gazed into each others eyes. The love between them was so strong, it could've given life to death, sight to blindness, kindness to hatred.
Just
a day, just an ordinary day
Just
trying to get by
Just
a boy
Just
an ordinary boy
But
he was looking to the sky.
