Lullaby -- A songfic.
Notes:Pairing: Seiya/Yaten.
(That goes against my morals.. I mean, I can read fics like that and not
care, I have a lot of fics like that saved and printed, but writing
them was a different story.. My friends if they read this are probably
like "o_____________o" Or something.. So am I! I suppose I just needed
to test the 'boundaries of space.')
Time/Locale: Before Sailormoon healed Galaxia / Earth,
Threelights apartment. (Of FATE!)
Etc: It's in Seiya's perspective thingy, he's currently a guy in
this, Yaten's a girl. 'Lullaby' is by Creed from their latest CD.
The...end? o_o;
-----------------------------------------------------------------
It's almost midnight.. Everyone's asleep. I tried calling Odango..
But she's at Hinosan's for a sleepover along with the other three. I
heard Taiki reciting poetry to try to get to sleep, and Yaten playing
music. It's still playing, actually.. I wonder if I should turn it off..
I'm wide awake. I can't sleep. My thoughts fly back to Odango, our
mission, the Princess.. Yaten said all my stress would bundle together
and get me, one day. Damn her for being right..
Yeah. Her. Yaten usually reverts back to her original form before she
goes to bed. I don't know, she said something about it "seeming more..
'right'" to her. I don't mind being a guy, actually. It's kinda fun.
Hm. Taiki did say I was a tomboy.
So yeah.. After a while I guess that music IS getting to me.. Maybe I
should go turn it off. The risk of her waking up and killing me alive
and well, though. But it's getting to me, still. So I will.
Hush my love now don't you cry
Everything will be all right
Close your eyes and drift in dream
Rest in peaceful sleep
I open the door a crack, to make sure she's asleep. Yup, She's fast
asleep. Maybe I'll survive this.. I open the door some more and sneak
in, silently stepping toward the radio. She rolled over onto her side, I
almost yelled out in shock. Good thing I prevented that..
Extending my hand, I turn off the radio with the push of a button,
sighing in relief seeing that she hasn't woken up. Thank God. Rubbing my
arm, I decide to leave immediatly, I don't want to take any chances.
So I'm on the way out.. Almost there.. A little bit further.. I
freeze. Now that she turned, I can see her face, her hair cascading over
her shoulders. Bangs in her face. Her blanket was all twisted up, she
was tangled in it. How the hell can she sleep like that? Maybe I can
help her or something. It's bugging me just seeing her like that.
To my eternal regret, I walked over to her, gently pulling the
blanket off of her before tossing it back over her. "There. Now don't
complain." I mumble. The next thing I know, I catch myself staring at
her. Just.. watching her sleep. What's coming over me..? For some
reason.. I can't tear my gaze away..
If there's one thing I hope I showed you
Hope I showed you
Just give love to all
I bend down on my knees beside her bed, simply staring. I can't help
it. It's like I'm being drawn in. Why am I.. Why does she have to look
so cute while she's sleeping?
I lean in a bit more, my face right next to hers. I'm sleepwalking,
dreaming.. Something. This isn't real. I'd never be this close to her
like this, blushing like this. Ever. And how embarrassing if she woke up
and saw me or if Taiki came in and saw me.
Now what? Now what's coming over me? Is it this male persona? Has
this male persona been seduced by her simple sleeping? I've known her
for as long as I can remember, why am I acting like this now?
Yeah, it is this male persona. I've never felt like this as female
Seiya. Ever. I can't control my actions anymore. My eyes close halfway,
as if I'm being controlled by something. I'm leaning in. Was it the
fact that she said she'd never love anyone that turns me on? Just the
fact that she said that, is that making me feel sorry for her and want
to help her? I suppose so .. Because otherwise..
Oh my love...in my arms right
Every day you give me life
As I drift off to your world
Will rest in peaceful sleep
I would have never pressed my lips onto hers like that. Out of
nowhere. I pulled away quickly, shocked at myself for doing that.
Internally cursing myself out, knowing I could never look at her the
same. No. I never will. I leaned in again and placed a hand on her
cheek, kissing her once again. How could I not?
She's taking me over just by accepting it without even knowing. She
is. I look at the clock. My God, 12:30. How long have I been in here,
staring at her? Fingers brush strands of hair from her face as I kiss
her just once more. I can't stand it. I have to get out of here.
..I can't get out of here. The moment I pressed my lips onto hers for
the last time, I felt a hand go on my cheek. I'm dreaming now. That's
it. I have to be, because the real Yaten would never do that, and most
definetly she'd never kiss me back. But she was. She..was.
I opened my eyes and saw green ones staring into mine. They widened.
Okay.. She probably didn't know who she was kissing till now. I slowly
drew my hand off of her cheek, standing up with a smile. "Go back to
sleep, Chiisai. I'm sorry I took you away from your dreams.."
And that was that. I rushed out of there, my fingers touching my
lips. She did kiss me back.. Didn't she? I sat down on my bed, in a sort
of daze. The door shut.
I know there's one thing that you showed me
That you showed me
Before my eyes, the door opened a bit. It was Yaten. With a nod, she
stepped in, shutting the door behind her. I patted the part of the bed
next to me, offering a seat. Hesitantly, she accepted and sat down. I
looked at her, she looked at me. It was completly silent.. For how long,
I don't know. But I don't care, either. Because after what seemed like
30 minutes, she leaned in and kissed me. Right on the lips.
'Course, I was shocked. But nevertheless. I leaned in and wrapped my
arms around her, deepening the kiss. She wrapped her arms around my
neck, continuing it. Is this a dream?
After a while, she pulled away, poking my cheek before she stood up
and headed towards the door. She opened it and turned, smiling.
Just give love to all
Let's give love to all
"This isn't a dream, Seiya."
And all I could do was stare...
