Will sat on the beach out under the light of the moon and just glanced at the still sea before him. His heart had felt like it had been torn from his chest and thrown into a fire.
It's over,you don't need to tell me. I hope you're with someone who makes you feel safe in your sleep,and tonight. I won't kill myself trying to stay in your life. I got no distance left to run.
It was such a beautiful night,and here he was sitting in his own personal hell. In the distance on the shore he could see someone coming towards him.
When you see me,please turn your back and walk away.
There was a huge knot in his throat and stomach and if it was the someone he thought it was,he didn't need them right now. As they got closer his heart seemed to hurt more and more.
I don't want to see you cause I know the dreams that you keep,is where we meet... He knew this was the way it would have ended sooner or later. It never ever seemed like it would have worked out,and then there was that part of him that wished he could have made it work.
"Will...?" He closed his eyes and cringed at the voice. He didn't want to acknolege her. He wanted to make her feel like she had made him,so easily. The bitter part of his heart was so earger to shine at this moment,but he was something of a respectable man.
He looked up at her,her face stained with tears,of some emotion Will could't seem to find. Her hair gently moved arond her as she knelt down beside him. She smiled weakly at him and touched his hand gently.
"Will,please. I don't want to hurt you,I know I have though. We just aren't meant to be together. You are a very respectable man Will Turner,but you need to grace the life of another woman. You don't need me,you could do so much better than me. I loved you once,but my heart has drifted,I'm sorry." He turned his gaze back to the sea and sighed. She stood up pulling his hand with her. He stood up and glanced back at the sea. She touched his face and made him look at her.
"I don't want you to live your life harping on what could've been,I want you to be a happy man,you deserve that. I can't give that to you from my end. You have to understand."
"I know,I should've known all along,I kept telling myself you'd come around. I was denying you freedom as well as myself. It's me you don't need,you deserve so much better than what I could try and give you. I want you to be happy. And you have made your decision as have I. I will be there for you though for the remainder of my days. " He smiled and wiped her cheek. She leaned in and kissed his lips gently. He wrapped her in a tight hug and inhaled her scent. That smell had haunted his every thought. She demanded to to be set free,and it was all he could do to comply,Swans aren't meant to be caged. She let go and made her way back. He just watched her as she grew smaller with each step she took. A peice of his heart gone,he would never get back. He'd devoted his undying love to someone who couldn't love him back. But he knew in time,all things would heal.
It's over,I knew it would end this way. I hope you're with someone who makes you feel that this life is a life. One who settles down stays around,spends more time with you,I got no distance left to run,I'm coming home...
Well guys,this is the final chapter. I hope you all liked it. I may have a sequel planned,but if you want to see one leave me comments saying so.
