Waiting
  ......Waiting
             ...Waiting.....

She's waiting. She's waiting for him. He should be here by now?. So why isn't he?. She looks around frantically.

Her beautiful red curls instead of falling freely on her shoulders are tied behind in a urgent and careless manner. Her electric blue eyes have morphed into dull gray instead. The electricity is long gone...

With him.

She slowly stands up with shaking legs, finally walking inside the building but not before glancing one last time.

With a disappointed sigh, she walks inside. Only to wait for another day.

Later in her apartment, she slowly sits with her dinner. She opens the tv ,with shaking hands, She guides the remote to a certain fimilair channel. Only to frantically close it again.

She is lying on her bed trying to sleep. After alot of effort, she finally feels drowsy. She slowly falls asleep.

"I never want to see your face again!!"

"Fine!!. I am leaving and never coming back!"

To only be jolted awake again.

"You should go on a vocation. A different atmosphere will help"

"Why don't you try therapy. It really helps"

"Try finding a hobby. It will keep you busy. Sure will help"

"Try dating. A special someone in your life will help-"

"Enough!!" She shouts at them.
"I don't need help. Just give me time!. Please!!" As tears threatened to fall on her pale cheeks. Silencing the crowd.

But after a moment of silence. They start again.

She sits next to the window, examining the rain drops fall onthe window as they slide down. Every minute she feels as she is about to fall apart. She tries to hold it in. Tries to act strong but that won't work infront of her mother.

Her mother approaches carrying two mugs of coffee. Her hazel eyes filled with concern seeing such state of her daughter.

She sets the mugs aside as she sits next to her daughter. Who is still oblivious to her presence.

She taps her daughter's shoulder, and the girl's face looks up,slightly disappointed expression falls on her face.

The mother ignores it. Instead opens her arms in a embrace and the daughter jumps into it. The mother comfortingly strokes her hair and then the redhead can't hold it back anymore.

She falls apart. Sobbing on her mother's shoulder as she managed to utter weakly.

"I..loved..him. I  never...got..to tell..him" she sobbed.

Her mother having no idea what to say just hugs her daughter more tightly as she manages not to cry herself at her daughter's broken state.

The red head clings on her mother for comfort as the horrible day replays in her mind again again again and again.

She finally falls asleep, a warm blanket around her but still a painfull look carved on her beautiful pale face.

She clungs to her blanket tighter as the nightmares surround her. Closer and closer they get. As they finally fulfil their purpose and she jolts awake.

Darkness surrounds her, she is alone sleeping onthe living room sofa. She looks up at the wall clock. 3 am.

She lays back trying to fall asleep but only to be haunted by another memory.

"Mer why are u texting me so late. It's freaking 2 am"  H

"I can't asleep. You have to keep me entertained. :-P" M

"If you can't sleep. Count sheeps or something why are you texting me!!" H

"Aaah. Your so boring" M

"Thank you. Now boring person will go back to sleep" H

"No! No! Come back!" M

"What now!" H

"Mer?"
"Mer?"
"Mer?"
"Geez Mer. I hate you!!" H

"Hate you too. Goodnight. Sleep tight. ;-)"M

"Aaaah!!!. Wait till tommorow" H

"Sure B-)" M

Now there is no tommorow. Atleast not with him. How can she can ever forget him?. His forest green eyes, auburn hair, freckled face will always be engraved in her mind.

His voice will always ring in her head.

She will always feels the touch of his hand.

In short he will always be there in her. As a part of her.

As she trudges down the fimilair path. Leaves beneath her feet, crackle and break.
But she has no clue for she is in deep thoughts.

She still remembers the day. When she realized she fallen for him. It was November and autumn at it's peak.

He was always artistic in nature. Autumn was his favourite season. He found it more colourful than spring.

"Autumn represents death. What so great about death?" She had asked him. They were sitting underneath their favourite tree as he effortlessly captured the beautiful scenery on paper.

"Death is always the beginning of something new. At first the beginning is like winter, cold and colorless. Showing no definate route as all the parts are covered with a blanket of snow. Then slowly the snow melts and a different end. Spring,the beautiful part is revealed" he explained

"Wow that's awfully poetic," she said closing her eyes as got comfortable onthe soft grass beneath her.

She sighed peacefully. It was end of the semester exams. No stress for a long long long time.

Something tickled her nose, her face scrunched up and she opened her eyes to see those forest green eyes hovering above her.

And that was the moment everything changed for her.

He was standing over, holding a big orange leaf in his hand with a sly smirk on his face and that's when she realized that, he was all she wanted.

But he was taken away mercilessly from her. Snatched would be a better word to describe it.

The thing she mostly regerts is that her last words to him were like peices of glass which punctured his heart and he had left in such anger. She had never seen before.

He had roughly took out a small box from his jacket pocket and thrown it violently onthe ground before disappearing forever.

When Merida had went to retrieve it. She broke down right next to it, her heart in her throat as she covered her mouth in horror.

She immediately ran outside, searching left and right  for him but he was already gone. She tried texting him. She tried calling. She even checked his apartment. He was no where. Disappeared in thin air.

Finally she fell in a uneasy sleep only to be woken up at 3 am to the news of his death. That was end of it. The end of him but the start of her misery.

It's been months already but the wound remains the same. But for some reason she didn't want it to heal. Atleast not right now.
Her finger beared that ring. Hopefully he isn't mad of her wearing it.

He wouldn't be. He was such a sweet, supportive, sarcastic but sometimes insecure guy but she was there for him. To wipe all those insecurities away. They were times one of them would act irrational but the other was there to calm them down but there were also the days, they both would be acting irrational and that would be framed as The Best Day Ever.

She smiles fondly remembering those, she turns towards the headstone. "You know Hic, I hate to admit it but I miss you terribly. I am just waiting to see..you again" she said stubbornly sniffing as her eyes watered again.

Beneath this ground is someone, who she used to talk everyday, they walked together inthe evenings and texted eachother at night. Because none of them could ever have enough of the other. But look at them now.

Seperated between life and death. None of them can do anything except wait. What are even the chances of them being together? She laughs bitterly.

She has blown one chance already, life doesn't give second chances and neither won't death. It was all her fault, everything was her fault. She herself has her inthis misery and that she has no one to blame but herself.

She is now lying underneath the same tree. Her eyes close as she recalls the memories.
After him, those memories look like fantasies and dreams. She is slowly loosing conscious and her breathing becomes shallow. She smiles faintly,She finally has found peace.

A single orange leaf falls from the tree and lands on her nose.

Her eyes open slowly . The first sight infront of her were a pair of forest green eyes.

He was standing infront of her. A huge smile on his face. She stares at him in disbelief as he extends his hand towards her but she takes it.

He slowly pulls her up from the ground. He brings her close, one hand on her waist,  other hand on her shoulder.

He gave his signature smile and leaned closer. Merida was still in utter shock and disbelief that she couldn't say anything but didn't even pull back.

Her both hands, found his face and held his cheeks dumbfounded as she helplessly stared at him.

He only smirked in return and whispered,  leaning more closer. "I have been waiting"

The End

This chapter was a total surprise chapter. I had no intention of writing for a while because it's like I am sorry guys but my inspirations are fading. No one is updating my favourite Merricup books which gives me inspiration and it's been a long time since I watched a Merricup vidoe which is actually the main source of keeping inspired but that reason is personal.

Anyway, so this was a surprise oneshot and you can thank Pintrest for it. You see these days the I only thing I am doing these days is mindlessly scrolling down Pintrest. So I found this

So you see I was like really touched by this and all but I had no idea my brain had already started writing story. So I was reading the comments and one person had written "When your an author, automatically a story starts forming in your mind".

So I was like. I am an author I should have a story too and then my brain was like, "Here you go the rough draft".

So that's the origin of this story. The first time I typed it, I am almost cried. Then second nah. I was heartless again.

Goodbye for now.

And did I mention i turned 15. I have only 5 years left to conquer the entire world. Muhahahahaha. *clears throat*

And someone still owes me a 2 day late gift. *glares at someone*." Someone if you are reading this. Me want her gift!! :O"
