A/N: A mini-series of one shots about how Cordelia feels about James.
————————————————————. I never should have fallen so hard for you. Everyone told me not to. But I listened to my heart rather than my head. Every impulse in me was screaming to run away.
Then...all I had to do was to look into those green eyes of yours; and I'm right back to that night when we were together. Laying in bed, me reading to you. Hoping and praying that you would get better.
There were moments when I thought you felt the same way...but was it just me?
I feel so foolish. My brother was right all along. He warned me about you. That you would do nothing but cause me pain and sorrow. I hadn't listened to him. I believed in us and our 'love'. Now I know better. As painful as it was to learn the hard way.
I wish that I can move on and find a person who will love me for me. And choose me. Not to be second in his eyes. I am a woman who deserves to be loved aren't I?
I suppose you wouldn't. I now know that I need to find someone who will treat me right. Who will hold my heart in his hands and handle it with care and affection. Not the knife searing pain that I feel when you say her name...the amount of tears that i've spilt over you.
But no more shall I be the person who weeps over someone. For I am Cordelia Carstairs. Owner and wielder of Cortana. 'I am Cortana, of the same steel and temper as Joyeuse and Durendal.'
Surely I can follow that lead. Until then, Forever and Always CC.-Daisy.
