The Lover After me.
Okay ... this 'song fic' is a little story about Takeru (T.K) and his troubles after a break up. I wrote it to go along with Savage Garden's 'The Lover After Me'hehehehehe I really liked this song, and I also really like Takeru, hes soo cute. Well ... here it is...
Takeru gasped. He couldn't believe it. They'd been going out so long. Why had she dumped him? Hikari turned her back and left. Takeru just stood there, speechless.
Tears welled up in Hikari's eyes as she looked back at Takeru. But he had changed. Ever since he'd become the star senior on their high school's basket ball team. Girls now swarmed him. She knew he liked the attention, the girls. Of course he would. Every boy would; girls would love attention too. She smiled sweetly to the other boy ... the lover after Takeru.
Takeru grabbed his backpack. He ran out of the school, away from Hikari.
~*~Much Later~*~
Another image came back to his mind as he walked home. He'd remembered when they took long walks in the park. He smiled sadly as he came to the bench they always sat in. He looked up at her apartment. He remembered all those times he had walked to that apartment ... so many times.
Here I go again, I promised myself I wouldn't think of you today. It's been seven months and counting... You've moved on. I still feel exactly the same. It's just that everywhere I go, all the buildings know your name, like, photographs and memories of love. Steel and granite reminders.... The city calls your name and I can't move on...
Takeru tried to move on. He smiled to his fans, showed no sadness. He, in a way, loved his fans. They gave him something to do. He tried to show his "love," but they never, really, seemed to care...
He thought of her on his way to school, he was always late. He saw her smiling...to him...The Lover After Him...
Am I alone in the universe? There's no love on these streets. I have given mine away to a world, that didn't want it anyway... So this is my new freedom? It's funny... I don't remember being chained. But nothing seems to make sense anymore... Without you I'm always twenty minutes late.
Takeru stood in front of her balcony. "Hikari! Hikari!" He called out.
Here I go again, I promised myself... I wouldn't think of you today. But I'm standing at your doorway. I'm calling out your name cause I can't move on... Every since you've been gone, the lights go out the same. The only difference is, you call another name: To you love; to your lover now ... to your love ... the lover after me... I do not own Digimon in any way shape or form. this takes place in season 01 when the team split and Kari gets sick. This is just what I think was going on in TK's head. it took me 4 weeks to finish! HOPE My brother needs to know what friendship means. I guess that's why he decided to leave us. Our team split when we needed each other the most. But I'm glad you stayed in our group. With me. Maybe you just wanted to be with your brother But did you also want to be with me? What brought us together? Was it my hope? As we were walking in the desert, I could hear you caughing. You told Gatomon you were alright, But I knew something was wrong. You collapsed and when we turned around We found you laying on the ground. Tai was very hurt and thought we shouldn't have brought you. But I'm glad you came with us. You laid on the bench with sweat brimming across your face. You looked so pale, so sick. I could remember looking down at you with tears in my eyes. Wishing there was something I could do. But I was too young and helpless. What could I have done anyway? We found a large house Strange that it had no food or medicine. Your brother and Izzy went to find something to make you feel better. I wanted to go with them. I wanted to help. But Tai told me to stay with you. I told him I'd do my best. I wanted to brave for once. I was scared and weak when I first came to the digiworld. I cried a lot. Then I met you. You were brave When I was a coward. You were strong When I was weak. You gave yourself to Myotismon While I watched Angemon lose his power When he fought Devimon. I'll never get over that. Something told me to look out he window I saw two evil digimon coming right for us. I reacted quickly and told Sora that we had to leave. When Tai came the house was destroyed. But we made it. My hope wouldn't let anything happen to you. We were all together again. Until MachineDramon attacked us And we were falling down to what seemed was our deaths. When I awoke, I saw you laying down, still asleep. I wasn't hurt and I was glad you weren't either. Patamon went to look for Sora and Gatomon stayed with us. You were tired and still weak and I decided to let you wake up on your own. If you were going to sleep, I thought I'd at least try to make you comfortable So I took off my backpack and served it as a pillow for your head. I sat there and looked at you, unable to take my eyes off you. Even sick, you were still a pretty girl. I found myself smiling. Was it my hope that brought us here? I know I hoped that the 8th child was someone my size. But I didn't hope that it was a pretty girl. Not that I'm complaining or anything. I'm just surprised. I got more than I hoped for. Minutes went by and maybe even hours. I talked to Gatomon about how long humans can sleep. I hear you sigh and then you finally open your eyes. I greet you with a big smile. "Hit the snooze button, one more time. Please?" you said to me. Wasn't exactly the greeting I hoped for but it will do. We looked for the others and we found them. We beat the dark masters and we finally got to come home. What brought us here? How did we get this far? How did we win? There's only thing that it could have been. It was my hope. The End |
