Summary: Where have I left my heart?


I left my heart somewhere and I can't find it. I've been searching for it. Under beds, under rocks, under papers, I've looked every where I can think of. Wait, I lied. There's one place I haven't looked, but I'm afraid to. I'm afraid that I'll finally find it there.

And I don't know if I want to.

I can't say you were never there for me. I can't say you didn't do anything for me. Because you always saved me from my misadventures. Because you did the one thing no one else could.

You gave me life.

Maybe I'm afraid I can't repay you. Maybe I'm afraid that if I find my heart, it will be broken in your hands. But you would never do that, right? You couldn't hurt me. You couldn't give me anything broken. You strive for perfection, not only from yourself, but from everyone around you. To leave my heart broken...

Would your heart break too?

No, that's silly. Your heart never breaks. No, I take that back. I saw it broken once. Is it still broken? Or did you find the heart I left and keep it as your own? I wonder if I really want to know. If you didn't find it, then you're still broken and I'm still searching.

And I don't want to search anymore.

Spending these years in your company makes me want to stay. I can't bear to think about sitting in the company of someone else. I don't know if I can have his hands touching me. I just know that it'll be you that I think of every time I close my eyes.

I already do.

Staring at you as I stand in the shadows, I think I've found it. I wonder if you've realized it too. The deep breath I've taken already dying, I walk to you and place a hand on your shoulder and you stop. Becoming daring, I keep the tips of my fingers on that shoulder and walk around to face you. You must be occupied with something or you're confused since you make no motion to leave.

Hold it carefully or it'll break. I'm fragile, you've said so yourself.

It takes me a second to look into your eyes. They tell me everything. You're not busy with anything else. You're not confused. You know I've found it. Without taking my eyes from yours I smile. It's a small, sheepish smile, but nevertheless, your eyes smile back. It makes me go farther. I reach up with my other hand and place it on your cheek. It stays there for a minute before my thumb moves between the two magenta stripes that grace your face. You still don't stop me.

I take it farther.

My lips find his. Yes, it's here. He kisses me back. It's not broken. He held it safely while I searched for it. I feel one of his hands brush past my hip and the other one takes my cheek. My eyes close as the kiss continues.

I left my heart somewhere I knew I'd find it.
