EVERYWHERE
A SONGFIC BY-yukito [email protected]
Disclaimer I don't in any way own Michelle Branch's song, 'Everywhere', and I don't own Final Fantasy. I got the lyrics from dapslyrics.com. Spoilers for the ending of FFX, and this is my first songfic, so it's probably gonna suck.

Yuna closed her eyes as she thought about the star player from Zanarkand.
Tidus.

Turn it inside out so I can see
The part of you that's drifting over me
And when I wake you're never there
But when I sleep you're everywhere
You're everywhere

Every time Yuna was alone, her thoughts wandered back to the memories of the playful teenager. He was always so happy, so friendly. 'It should have been me. It was my fate to die, not his.'

Just tell me how I got this far
Just tell me why you're here and who you are
'Cause every time I look you're never there
And every time I sleep you're always there

He was a dream created by the Fayth. But to Yuna he was something much more important. A bigger part of her life. The precious thing she had lost in the fight against Sin.
I love you. She had finally told him, but it was to late. He was already fading.

'Cause you're everywhere to me
And when I close my eyes it's you I see
You're everything I know that makes me believe
I'm not alone
I'm not alone

Yuna whistled once, and then again. There was no response. She knew he would never laugh with her or whistle with her again. 'Why aren't you here?' A single pyrefly escaped from her chest and flew into the sky.

I recognize the way you make me feel
It's hard to think that you might not be real
I sense it now; the water's getting deep
I try to wash the pain away from me
Away from me

'I'm broken on the inside.'
Yuna needed to go take a swim. Anything to bring relief from the constant images of the one person she had truly loved. She gathered a towel and went down to the Besaid docks.

'Cause you're everywhere to me
And when I close my eyes it's you I see
You're everything I know that makes me believe
I'm not alone
I'm not alone

Somewhere in the sea a young boy was resting. Most people would have taken him for dead. However, he slowly cracked open one eye, and then stretched. He began to swim to the surface.

I am not alone
Whoa, oh, ooh, oh

He was the Fayth's last gift to the summoner who had given them eternal rest from their dreams.

And when I touch your hand
It's then I understand
The beauty that's within
It's now that we begin
You always light my way
I hope there never comes a day
No matter where I go
I always feel you so

Yuna thought about the last time she saw him on the airship. He wrapped his arms around her. Tidus had felt surprisingly warm and comfortable for one who was fading away. "I love you, too," he had whispered into her ear.

'Cause you're everywhere to me
And when I close my eyes it's you I see
You're everything I know that makes me believe
I'm not alone
'Cause you're everywhere to me
And when I catch my breath it's you I breathe
You're everything I know that makes me believe
I'm not alone

Yuna felt the tears roll down her cheek. She looked out over the ocean and let out one long, loud whistle.

You're in everyone I see
So tell me
Do you see me?

A figure broke through the waves and turned to face Yuna.
Tidus.
