A/N: Hello everyone! Here is the chapter you have all been waiting for! This is the final part to my Tales of Symphonia story! This chapter moves a litte fast, because I wanted to finish it up and I don't think I could have wrote a nice chapter for the fifth part. So, I hope you enjoyed my story!

Disclaimer: I do not own Tales of Symphonia. Namco does. If I did, the game would have ended like my story.


Part Four

"You are thinking of doing what in Altamira?" Lloyd asked again.

Sheena's face turned red as she looked around the room to find an excuse.

"Practice her Ninja water techniques," Zelos said.

"Oh. I guess that makes sense. There isn't a place in Meltokio to practice that," Lloyd said, smiling at Sheena again.

"Zelos, could Lloyd and I practice in your backyard?" Kratos asked.

"Come on Dad! I want a break!" Lloyd complained.

"You're not getting one until I say you can have one," Kratos said, his eyes flashing again.

Lloyd made a little wimpering noise as Kratos grabbed his head, and laughing evilly, dragged him outside.

"Thank you so much!" Sheena said, sighing with relief.

"It's no problem," Zelos said, standing. "Even if I am upset that you chose him, I knew you weren't ready to tell him. I just helped out the woman I loved."

Sheena couldn't see his face, but she suspected that his blue eyes were clouded over in pain. She knew she had hurt him, but she couldn't take it back now. She had chosen Lloyd after all.

"Come, Miss Sheena. I will show you to your room," Sebastian said.

Sheena stood, and after glancing at Zelos once more, she followed the butler up the stairs. He led her to a room, then bowed before he left. She wondered over to the window to see what kind of view she got. The window over looked the backyard and she could see Lloyd and Kratos sparring. She didn't know how long she stood by the window, watching them, but the next thing she knew, she was being called to dinner. She left her post by the window and walked downstairs. Lloyd and Kratos were already sitting at the table. Sheena looked around and saw that the only open chair was beside Lloyd. She glanced over at Zelos and saw him smirking.

'Damn him!' she thought. 'He planned this!'

She sat down next to Lloyd and looked down at her plate.

"Hey Sheena, I was thinking we could leave at noon to head to Altamira. I know you probably want to practice your ninja arts there," Lloyd said.

Sheena's heart started to beat really fast. So, the time to tell him was getting closer. She hadn't really figured out where and how she was going to tell him. All through dinner, she thought about it, and by the time she went up to her room, she still hadn't figured it out. She sat down at the table in her room and rested her head on her hand. She thought that maybe she could tell him down by the beach, but the beach wasn't open at night and she wanted to do it at night. Then a thought popped into her mind. She could ask Regal to open the beach just for her and Lloyd. As she went to bed, she thought about what she could say to Lloyd and how she could make him understand that she loved him.

She awoke late the next morning and as she sat up, she remembered that today was the day she was going to tell Lloyd how she felt. Sheena got out of bed and walked over to the window. It looked like it was going to be a nice day. She glanced down at the lawn and wasn't surprised to see Lloyd and Kratos sparring. She was wondering why they were sparring so much. She turned away from the window and got dressed, then she headed downstairs to breakfast. Zelos was sitting at the table, reading the paper and drinking a cup of coffee. He glanced up when Sheena sat down.

"Well, good morning my voluptuous hunny," he said smiling. "Did you sleep well?"

Sheena aimed a kick at his shin before answering.

"I slept just fine. I, um, decided to tell Lloyd how I feel about him tonight," she said, picking up the glass of tea that had just been placed beside her.

Zelos glanced up and she could see panic in his eyes.

"What? Already? Give me a chance to woo you before you go telling Lloyd your feelings!" he said.

"I already told you, I don't like you that way," Sheena said, eating a piece of bacon.

"I know, I know," Zelos said, sighing. "Good luck with Lloyd. Make sure you take care of my bud, and if he isn't taking care of you, you can always come back to the Great Zelos Wilder."

Sheena looked over at Zelos and smiled.

"I'll keep that in mind if I ever go insane," she said. "But, even if he doesn't return my feelings, I will be happy since he will know how I feel about him. That's all that matters to me."

She smiled as she looked down at her cup.

"Would you really be happy with that?" he asked.

She looked up and nodded.

"Like I said, that's all that matters. I want him to be happy, even if he's not with me. Even if it's some other girl making him happy."

At that moment Lloyd and Kratos came in, panting. They were a little sweaty from the sparring they were doing.

"Good morning, Sheena," Lloyd said, sitting next to her.

"Good morning," Sheena answered.

"I can't wait to go back to Altamira! The waters are so clear and it feels so good on a hot day like today," Lloyd said.

"I love the waters!" Zelos said. "Not to mention all the cute hunnies in bathing suits!"

"You're a pervert, Zelos!" Sheena said, aiming another kick at his shin.

"But, Sheena! You know I only like your body!" he said.

This time Sheena reached across the table and smacked him upside the head.

"You're a lech!" she yelled getting up and stomping upstairs.

She heard Zelos laughing as she slammed the door. She flopped down on the bed face first and waited for Lloyd to come get her. She didn't wait long before he was knocking on her door, telling her that it was time to go. She grabbed her stuff and headed down the stairs.

Zelos was standing by the door, getting ready to see them off.

"Good luck, Sheena. I really hope he returns your feelings," he whispered to her.

"Thanks Zelos," she whispered back.

"Make sure you take care of Sheena for me," Zelos said to Lloyd.

"Don't worry, I will," Lloyd said.

"I'll see you soon!" Zelos said.

As Sheena, Lloyd, and Kratos walked out of the city, Sheena's heart started to beat fast. She knew that soon, she would be telling Lloyd how she felt.

A little while later, they were entering Altamira and Regal and Presea was waiting for them.

"Hello you three! I have rooms all ready for you," Regal said.

"Hey, Regal, can I talk to you alone?" Sheena asked.

"I'll take Lloyd and Kratos to their rooms," Presea said.

As Lloyd, Kratos, and Presea walked away, Regal and Sheena sat on a bench by the entrance.

"What's up Sheena?" he asked.

"Well, I decided to tell Lloyd how I feel about him," she said, blushing. "But, I would like to have access to the beach at night. If it's ok with you, of course."

"So, you are finally going to tell him? Well, I see no problem with it. I will let the staff know," Regal said, standing.

"Thank you so much, Regal!" Sheena said.

For the rest of the day, Sheena went between the amusement park and the beach. Finally, at six that evening, she went into the hotel for dinner. Lloyd was the only one at the table. She sat down and looked over at him.

"Hey Lloyd, will you go to the beach with me after dinner?" she asked.

"Sure, but what for?" he asked.

"I'll tell you when we get there."

Dinner passed slowly and Kratos never showed up. After they paid for dinner, they walked slowly to the beach. They sat down on a chair and looked up at the sky.

"So, why did you bring me out here?" Lloyd asked.

"I'm just going to come out and say it. I love you, Lloyd. I have for a long time. Being with you makes me so happy. I want to stay by your side for the rest of my life," she said, still looking at the sky.

"Wow, I don't really know what to say," Lloyd said.

Sheena stood and walked over to the edge of the water.

"You don't really have to say anything. I just wanted you to know. I love you and I will for the rest of my life."

Lloyd got up and walked over to Sheena. He grabbed her and pulled her into a hug.

"Sheena... I... I love you, too," he whispered in her ear.

"I'm so happy, Lloyd," she said.

She buried her face into his shoulder and smiled.

The End


A/N: Well? What did you think? I know it went a little fast at the end, but I was getting tired. It is currently 3:30 am and I should be getting to bed. I have been working on this chapter since a little after midnight. I started from the beggining and just kept writing till I finished. So, I hoped you liked it and I may write one to Tales of Symphonia: Dawn of the New World since they left it wide open for a fan fiction. We'll see how it goes. Also, I have a Christmas story I am working on, but, you won't see anything on that until closer to the end of the year. It will be before Christmas though, so look forward to that! So, like I always say: constructive criticism is welcome but flames are not.
