You Were…

[CinderRuby]

You were all I could think about. You were different from the others. You could see the true me, and I guess that's what I loved about you.

You could see through my lies. You could see when I was sad or lying. When others called me weak and mocked me you didn't. You saw my strength. You saw what made me special. Others laughed and told me I was just a kid. But you didn't because you saw how mature I could be.

You saw my worth where others would only see a child who got lucky. Others only saw my childish, innocent nature. But you… you didn't. You could see the pain behind my silver eyes that I so desperately tried to hide. You understood what I was going through and you didn't mock me for it. It was like you had seen it before. You could see the truth/

The others didn't understand. But how could they? How could that know I had remembered? How could they know that I still had nightmares from that day? I always wanted to ask you if you had lost someone too, but I could never work up the courage.

Even though I never fully explained it to you, you still understood. It was like you knew what I wanted to say even though the words were silent.

When my knees turned to jello and my insides turned to goop you held me up when no other would. You didn't let me fall. You didn't let me fail. Not like the others… they believed that I needed to do all this on my own. But that's now how I worked. I needed at least one person to lean on.

You know I went to you over my team about my problems. You listened and didn't laugh. It trusted you over my sister because you understood. You understood my problems and feelings. You would sit there and silently nod as I explained everything. Never once did you judge me.

And I kept coming and coming and coming to you about my problems and feelings. Not once did you ever tell me to leave and never come back. Even though over and over I felt like I was a nuisance to you. You never thought that of me, not like the others. And before I knew it, I was falling for you. And then you liked me back too. It was amazing.

The others thought, they didn't understand. They would scoff and say 'how can a child know what love is?' But we didn't listen. They tried to break us up, to show us that we were wrong, though we never feel for their tricks. You never gave up and you stayed with me. You gave me support and love.

And even when I found out you were the enemy, I still didn't care. I'm sure you had your reasons, but I knew that you loved me. You could pretend to not, but I knew you did. I knew you better than your so called allies.

I loved you and that's what mattered most to me. I would give up my life for you. And that's what I did. I hope you will remember me Cinder, because you'll always be in my heart. I love you.

[THE END]

A/N: Did you like? Did it give you feels? Good. I hope it did it was supposed to. It's short but ehh oh well. I might end up making a long version where it actually goes in depth, but that might end up being a long term story. But I'll see after I'm done all my other plans.
