Summary: you were there for Annie when she got out of the crystal
________________________________

"You know, Annie," you hummed, glancing at your nails. "One of these days you're gonna have to come out of that stinky crystal of yours." you turned your attention to her face. Maybe if you stared hard enough, she would open her eyes, and you would see that beautiful blue hue again.

Taking long strides, you walked closer to the clear rock, rapping your knuckle against the mineral harshly. "Anyone in here?" you joked. No response. You let out a little sigh, backing yourself up against the wall and collapsing into a crouching position.

"I know you're angry about your defeat, but that's no way to treat me," you let out a little puff of laughter, shaking your head at your ridiculousness. It had been years since Annie had imprisoned herself into her crystal. She couldn't still be upset about her defeat- if she even had consciousness in this state, anyway.

Your eyes glazing over, your pointer and middle finger made their way to your mouth, pulling you bottom lip down slightly. You let out a small groan, adjusting yourself. You needed to get comfortable if you were gonna be here for a while.

"You had the prettiest eyes, you know," you started. "But you never liked eye contact. At least, you didn't like it when I stared."

You paused for a moment. "I... I wish I could've said more to you. Before you... did this. We never had much time between training and fighting, and I wish I had taken the time to talk to you.

"I know it's too late, and I know that I say it a lot, but I really do love you, Annie. It's... been a hard four years without my girlfriend."

Silence. Sighing again, you let your head slam against the wall behind you. Oh, well. You could always hope for her return later. You let your eyes fall shut, humming softly as you tried to lull yourself to sleep.

Just as sleep was about to take you, a sound of shattering glass sounded through the room. You shot up, your eyes fluttering open as you took in the scene. There Annie was, coughing on the floor as something that looked like water surrounded her. Her body was limp, but you could tell she was awake by the way she hacked and choked.

You waited a few moments, stunned at the display in front of you. "I'm... Annie?" you wanted to scream, to run towards her, to do anything but stand there. But your feet wouldn't move. You were frozen, watching your past (still?) girlfriend wheezed.

Regaining yourself, you prepared yourself as Annie started to stand on shaky legs. She looked to you with bleary eyes, taking in the situation at hand.

You extended your arm, offering her your hand.

"Come. We need to talk."
