A Drabble.

This girl and I have been best friends for a long time, I've loved her for nearly a year, and even though I knew she liked me a lot, she had decided not to get together, and I was trying to respect that decision. She and I had been hanging out all that day, and that day especially, I noticed how amazing she was... I mean, I always noticed, but that day I couldn't not notice it,

It was after our training session with Master Eraqus, we decided to hang out in my own room after the lesson, all we did was talk on what it would be like to be keyblade masters, while our Master worked with the new student, Ventus.

I was being driven crazy with all this pent-up romantic energy. We leave my room to go to the courtyard about a half-hour walk, and she's humming on the way at one point, she has the most beautiful voice as her humming turned into soft singing. Aqua stops to tell me, it was a song her, mother would sing for her as a child and that it was a song, she could never forget.

Aqua's walking along, the sun's setting behind her, and it silhouettes her and shines off her hair, and I'm so struck by her beauty that I completely slow down, captivated. The inside of me just wants to kiss her like nothing else.

Aqua and I eventually get to the courtyard, sitting down leaning up against her. And I end up leaning my head against her shoulder, half lying down. I begin to stare into the night sky, which is one of our many shared past times. We stare together at stars together, I tell her, how she's the best friend I've ever had and probably will ever have, and thank you so much. She says her own things along those lines, and as I lay there, head against her shoulder, I kind of hug her leg and we keep staring into the night. I look over, and I can tell she's deep in thought.

I ask her what she's thinking about. "You," she tells me. I sit up, lean near her so that our faces are on the same level. She looks away. "Why?"

She tells me she doesn't know. I lean in, so our faces are only a few inches apart. "Aqua, what would you do if I were to kiss you right now?" She doesnt say anything as I reach across her face, gently press my fingers against her cheek, and turn her face towards mine. She does not resist, she even follows, but her face she seems to shake. I brush the blue pieces hair out of her face. Kiss her cheek. Tell her, "I don't want to do this if you don't want to."

Silence.

I lean in. So does she.
