"And oh, I know, the world of Real Emotion
Has surrounded me
I won't give into it
Now I know, that world
It is the only way my heart can go
I hear your voice calling out to me..."
- Final Fantasy X-II OP, "Real Emotion"

Christophe had known [Name] for quite some time now. Probably since they were training at the same rink for their Junior division. Even back then, Christophe can recall being attracted to her, but even at 15, [Name] had boys all over her. She wouldn't want him, right?

... Right?

So, he just stayed her friend. He wanted her to himself, but she was so gorgeous, and he felt so... Not.

Every break up, he'd be there. He honestly didn't care if he was the rebound guy as some of the other boys that were training put it.

They had a lot of almost intimate moments. Almost being the keyword. She would always feel awkward, and back out, apologizing.

But puberty hit him like a truck. Girls started crowding around, and he got his fill of intimate moments if you catch my drift. How else could he have such mass sex appeal?

It seemed that sex was all the girls wanted. While he liked it, he started craving emotional relationships, as well.

That's when he met the girl that would tear him apart.

Anna Bodmer.

This girl was [Name]'s rival. In love and on the ice. She drove Christophe nuts in bed, and was sweet to him when he was down (which was rare). However, she hated the fact that he was STILL talking to [Name]. So, she formulated a plan.

<<7 Years<<

"Christophe! C'mon!" Anna giggled, "I need to talk to you!"

Christophe was texting [Name] telling her that he'd be there when he could. She had one hell of a break up.

"Yeah?" He asked.

"You're talking to [Name] again, aren't you?" She pouted.

"Yeah, bad break up." He looked at her, "So, what...!!"

"Stop talking to her!" Anna demanded.

"Why?" Christophe asked.

"Well, we're dating, aren't we? We've have been for a year!" She exclaimed, "Don't you think it's time to give up on her?" She asked.

"U-uh... Um..." At this time, Chris was still a little unsure.

"Either tell her to go away, or we're through." She threatened.

"F-fine... I'll tell her to go away." He - at the time - thought that Anna might be the one.

He was so wrong.

She kept him from being with friends after that, demanding all of his time. Four months of that, and he was fed up.

"You know, we see your friends all the time. What about me?" Christophe asked.

"Fine. We're through." She said, "By the way, I've been with like three other guys since we've been dating. Like you would've noticed." She laughed as he cried.

"I thought..."

"It was a farce! To bring down [Name] and get some attention on me." She laughed harder, "Oh god! And now you're crying!"

He stormed out. How was he to fix this?

>>Present>>

Now, he regrets how he treated [Name]. He realized, when Anna broke up with him, that he'd always want [Name]. Always. He was too scared to approach her when he saw her after that. But [Name] approached him. She told him it was okay. That she'd had boyfriends try to do that to her, but she'd tell them she'd rather have a friend.

He didn't tell her about the finale of the break up. She'd laugh at him, too. He never wanted to get emotionally wrapped up in a girl ever again.

Now, at the China Cup, he danced on the ice as if giving a private dance to [Name]. God. If he could just...

I'm gonna cum!!!! he thought, right as he ended his program.

He looked to see [Name] cheering him on. His heart soared.

No. No good ever comes from getting emotionally invested. He thought. But he, in truth, kind of wanted to give it another go, if it were with [Name].

At the hotel, he watched as [Name] discussed her programs with her trainer.

She looked and smiled at Christophe, waving to him.

He winked, and smirked, waving back.

When she approached him, he hugged her, and looked her in the eye. Arms wrapped around each other.

There's that look... [Name] thought, It's not lust... Because that's how I look at him.

They realized that they were just stating into each other's eyes for a while, "[Name]..." Christophe whispered.

"Yes?" She replied.

"I... Want to ask you to be my girlfriend." He had mass sex appeal from all the girls he'd been with. Yet he felt love when he looked at her. When he was on the ice radiating sex appeal, it was because she was there. After all, to have sex appeal, there has to be someone initiating it. He didn't think it would come across as well if she wasn't there.

"You just want sex." [Name] deadpanned.

Christophe laughed, "That, too. But!" He moved his hand to the small of her back, "I want to give you the world. It's taken me at least 14 years to say this, so give me a chance."

She giggled, and he could tell she wasn't laughing at him. She was giggling in happiness, "Every boy broke up with me because I've been waiting for you to ask me that. I just... I've heard girls gloating that they "got some" from you. It seemed like every time I'd come close to having you as my boyfriend, you'd been with another girl. And to be honest, back when you were dating Anna, that seemed like the basis for your relationship."

"I was 18." Christophe replied.

"I felt so alone. And here were these random girls getting your attention." [Name] sighed, "But yes, I will."

"I promise, I'll never leave you alone again."

"You'll never be alone"

Hey, sorry this one is so short and lame. I tried. I think I'm gonna take a break to get some inspiration. So, maybe not tomorrow, but definitely in the next three days. Who knows. Anyway, I hope you liked, thanks for reading!
