Disclaimer: I don't own Tales of Symphonia...or Zelos...or Shihna. Wish I owned Zelos though, so he could be my love slave.

Warning: SPOILERS! BIG SPOILERS! Spoilers on uhh...so and so's death.


The sky was golden orange. Golden orange like his wings...yes, his wings. Shihna looked out the window of his bedroom. Why did he do that anyways? Why did he have to do that? Didn't he know that everybody would've wanted him to live? She held back her tears. If she started crying she knew that she wouldn't be able to stop. She had stopped by...just to explore his room...and remember. She got up from her chair and stepped into his huge walk-in closet. Did a man really need that many clothes? She tiptoed inside, as if it was a sacred place. She reached out and touched his long pink vest. She had always wondered exactly what kind of material his clothes were made of. She ran her fingers along the hem of the vest. Something fell out and landed on the floor. "Huh?..." She bent down and picked it up. "A letter?..." She turned it around. "It's for me?..." Well, if it was for her then she could open it right? She ripped open the envelope and took out the letter...

Dear Shihna,

When you read this I probably won't be here any more. I'm sorry. This whole time...I've been tricking you. Even if if I asked for your forgiveness a million times...you probably wouldn't forgive me anyways. I've been such a horrible person. I've told so many lies. So many lies that I didn't really know what the truth was any more. My whole life...was a lie. Everything that I did was a big act. I'm so sick of that. I want to stop acting for once. I want to be someone who can show my true feelings. I wanted to show my real feelings to you...just once. Once would be enough. Just to tell you...I wouldn't mind dying. Not that matters...I saw that coming. The pretty boys always die young, right? It's okay...really. It's fine this way. If I leave you alone you'll probably be happier. Now that I'm gone...you can find that special someone. I'll let you go now. I won't bother you any more. Go and find your one and only.

Good bye,

Zelos

Shihna couldn't hold back her tears any more. A few of them splashed onto the page, blurring some of the letters. She slumped to the ground. "You idiot..." She wiped away a few of her tears, even though she knew that it wouldn't help much. "My one and only...was you."


SakuMeiMei Says: That was kinda short wasn't it? It was really short...but I don't like thinking of Zelos' death. It makes me sad. Very sad. I don't like killing Zelos...because I love him. I also happen to play as him. Naturally you would make the comment of "Couldn't you use Kratos?" I...can't. XD It's really sad...I'm not that great with Kratos even though I do perfectly fine with Zelos. I have some kind of serious malfunction with my head or something. I don't like seeing Shihna cry either. Shihna crying for Zelos during his death scene was so sad!

The letter was originally going to be longer...but then I decided to just keep it the way it is. Keh keh keh...and am I the only one that wonders exactly what Zelos' clothes are made of?...

And yes, MoonlitInuko. You can do a fanart thingy based on my fanfic. XD I don't mind...just show it to me later! XD I replied to this review early...because I really don't know when the next oneshot's going to come up. I have a deadline. Yush...it's...actually two days from now and I haven't really even started on my super special birthday present for my wonderful idol Tanemura Arina. Yush, SakuMeiMei loves her very much. So much that she squeals every time she sees Arina's work. XD
