Levi One-shots

Last Thoughts

I remember her telling me that she didn't think anything through. I remember her coming into the classroom in her pajamas. She said that things like that don't come to mind in moments like those. It was ironic how at peace she looked. Even so I knew how much will power it must have taken to do something like that.

It was like any other day at school, except the grueling little detail that she had told me the night before. It was devastating. I couldn't sleep the whole night. I absent-mindedly listened to the teacher's lecture​. How could I go on with life knowing something like that? Suddenly the door opened. The couple people who always look up to open doors kept their eyes on the her for a while longer. Not only was it the surprise of the way she was dressed, but the surprise of how absurd she looked.

She never told me about her plans to do this, but I somehow knew it was coming. As I saw her stand there in front of the people she once called her classmates and friends, I was almost brought to tears. Soon enough everyone's eyes were brought to her.

Once she knew she had everyone's attention she closed the door behind her and leaned against the wall gently.

"What is it, Giselle?" Mr. Light was never a very confident man. He was used to dealing with adults who had respect and admiration for learning.

She cleared her throat and began to speak in a very mellow voice. "Sorry for the interruption, but I would like to say something to the class." Her voice was unlike other times, it was full for confidence and pride. I would have wished to see more of this side of her.

"Go ahead." Everything from this moment on was a fraction of my life I will never forget. It has been drilled into my mind like a tattoo burned into my skin.

"I... fell for a guy. Not because of his looks or his kindness, but for his ice cold personality. I found it amusing to see him make a fuss about little things, to see him curse at everybody in his way, to see him snicker under his breath and most of all to see him be able to do anything with the utmost confidence." She chuckled in a way that made my nervous rattle. I still don't understand why nobody called her out for what she was doing. I have concluded that students like gossip, but the teacher I will never understand.

"I fell so hard for him, I still can't believe it. I just wanted to say that..." She looked down as her voice began to waver. "I never expected my life to go like this, but you have to take what's coming for you. So here I am because I swore upon this bracelet." She held up the hand her bracelet was placed on. I remember the day she bought it; it was on her fifteenth birthday. It was also the day she fell for him. She chuckled a bit before beginning once again.

"It's ironic because the only person who I wanted to do this for isn't even paying attention." By now everyone knew who she was talking about. "It doesn't matter because that's what I fell for-- the feeling of outstanding difference in personality. The maturity he had since his early years of life. Most people don't see it, but his life is more extravagant than any of us have ever wished for. This is only because of the things he's been through."

Tear threatened to fall out my eyes as I reminisced the time she first told me about him. She described him as the most admirable person in her life. I never seen her fall for any guy, so this came as a shock to me.

"Well, thanks for letting me waste your time. Oh, and Petra tell my parents I'm not coming back tonight." Tears fell down my face as she addressed me.

"Giselle, you don't have to do this." I said between sobs.

"You're right, I don't. I am compelled, forced by my own rights, and chained down by my own monarchy to do so." She said as she held the door open.
