Waiting, I was always waiting. That day you left, ever since that
day....
You were never there, when I needed you, but I was always there, waiting
for you.
I got nothing from pain from it, but for you, for YOU it was worth it,
but
you never came....
....But I still waited, waited for you to come. Sometimes, I wonder,
no, right now, I'm sure. That you really didn't notice me, but that you
had loved me. To the best of my friends I tell this, and they say that
this is a foolish hope. I'm always waiting they said, he will never
come they said. Ever since we were kids....
I always looked up to him, as someone to run to when hurt, to talk to
when sad, to rely on, when in trouble.... for a while, we had that, when
we were only kids. But you left.... you were, what had you called it?
"Growing Older." But I never wanted you to grow up, if you would have
turned out this way. You were obsessed with success, and though you
used to love me, now you loved me only because I was part of your way to
success.
You left house, 5 years ago, I was only 15 then, you were 16. You went
to see the world, and you never returned... How I waited for you, but
you never came, and you too, dissappeared from my head, with the fire
that so consumed me, and my life. And that faithful day, when you came
back, but then you were a distant memory....
But ever since the moment I saw you again, in the slums, I knew that it
was all worth it, the pain, th memory. You promised me, that you would
return, a knight in shining armor, to rescue me. And all through out,
you did, you rescued me, from phisycal harm, as well as from my own
selfish hate of Aeris, until her death, and how you mourned for her...
Then I knew that it was over, You would love me, and I you, but we
would never be announced as Husband and Wife, and that though the wait
was worth it, that my expectation was lowered, by bounds. In the life
stream.... there we saw that we were more then a regular friends, we
were true friends, that our souls bonded us from leaving each others,
though he would love Aeris, more and a huuundred times then me, that he
loved me, beyond words, and then I truly understood him. And it was
then, that I was truly, openingly, loving you, with my soul, and with my
heart, and then I knew that everything, and anything, was worth for
you...
Authors Note: Need a few C&C and feed backs, First before you give C&C
though, I will tell you a few of my errors of the Final Fantasy 7
characters and events, that I purposely made to dramatize. Tifa did
wait very hard for Cloud, and as in many other fanfics and a few hints,
(and when I played the game Cloud had a date and the play with Aeris),
Tifa was a bit jealous of Aeris, but I think that she had a deeper
understanding after the incident of the life-stream. One more thing,
some people will think of Aeris as Aerith, which is actaully the
original translation from Japanese version. But in the U.S. product of
the game, it was Aeris. And though I think Aerith sounds better, I'm
more used to Aeris.
Also, a few typos here that I haven't the time to catch, and also, one
more thing, I have some grammer and fractions and segments of
sentences. These are used for dramatization, and think of all this as a
narrative, all the "...."'s indicate a voice, trailing off....
...like this. Bring some feedback, ty, hope you enjoyed the short fic.
