Primal Origins - Hardenshipping Fanfiction

Prologue

We could never conceive a future any different from the past.

I should have known from the start, when I met him. But I couldn't help myself. He was incredibly enticing, and I wanted him all to myself. But our ideals contrasted to a point of animosity. We could never maintain what we had, and I was left missing him the moment he was gone.

At first, I was ambivalent, thinking I would eventually get him back. But as the months dragged on, I was sure that I could never see him in the same light again. And it pained me. Our past wasn't perfect, but it was all I had.

Change was only accomplished with great effort, and once it was forced upon us, we were constantly adamant in following a new course. It was too hard to alter our lives.

But alas, it happened. Everything was taken away from us. Like a candlestick, my ambitions were always burning out. And here I am, alone with all I once wished to accomplish. My team and I had plotted a plan most terrible, and we succeeded. But success came with a price. It cost me his friendship.

I recall how close we once were. We cared for each other, and helped each other move on. There was one thing that bound us as one, and it continues to burden me every single day.

Love.

Is there truly such a thing as love? Is love as important as everyone claims it is? Does it dominate our lives and lead us to better endeavours?

Yes.

Love is the most important thing the world has to offer. Without it, we are but a soul, alone and drifting through life. If he had not loved me, and I had not loved him, then I would not be who I am.

It is said that without many people loving you, you cannot truly live. But I only needed him. And now I'll never get another chance with him again.
