I slightly improved it, as well as adding a new chapter…Nanoha's POV...it makes more sense with Nanoha's POV…enjoy.
Fate POV
Here I was on the couch facing the door, waiting for 4 hours, for Nanoha to return home. It was exactly 2:00am and 2 hours into my birthday. I waited for another 2 hours before unconsciously dozing off in exhaustion. I woke up at 8am the next morning to find Nanoha unlocking the door and stumbling into the house. "Fate! Don't sleep on the couch, you'll get a cold. You didn't need to wait for me!" Nanoha scolded.
I ignored her scold and looked at her, "Where were you last night?." Before answering my question Nanoha took off her shoes and trotted towards the couch. She settled herself next to me. "With Yunno." I raised one of my eyebrows and continued to investigate. "What were you doing with Yunno?" "Mou…Fate don't make it sound naughty, I was finishing my work."
Nanoha got off the couch, stood up and walked towards the shower.
Ignoring my sceptic thoughts I asked her if she needed breakfast. "No, I'm going out with Yunno today; I'm leaving at 9am, Thanks." Stabs of fear and jealousy stabbed my heart, hard.
20 minutes later Nanoha came out from shower with only her towel around her. She is hot. I felt liquid leave my nose and raised my hands to touch it. Great, a bleeding nose. I walked towards the toilet in an orderly manner so I didn't seem too obvious. Covering my nose with my hands, I walked past Nanoha, avoiding any contact, in case I wasn't able to control myself. oooooooooooooooo
Nanoha was in front of me, holding two pieces of clothing, she asked me which dress was more suitable. As I looked at her, I reminded myself that it wasn't me she was dressing up for it was Yunno. I concealed my pain through a smile and gave my opinion.
oooooooooooooooo
"Fate, will you do my hair."
"Gladly."
I ran my hands through her hair…her soft strands through my fingers made me shiver in excitement. Stop it Fate, she's not…yours. I quickly gave her a ponytail on the side of her head, trying to avoid any further temptation.
At 9, I sent Nanoha off with a smile. As she ran over to Yunno I wanted to pull her back. But I didn't want to ruin that beautiful smile of hers, and instead I shut the door. I leaned on it, my head in my hands and my mind filled with mixed feelings I could not predict.
She didn't remember my birthday.
Ooooooooooooo
For the rest of the morning I isolated myself in my room. Tears left my eyes and I couldn't stop it, the memory of Nanoha running away from me was indelible beyond any attempts to erase it. Nanoha.
oooooooooooo
Towards the end of the afternoon , splattering sounds could be heard from the outside. I decided to go out for a walk, to clear my mind. I grabbed my running shoes and ran out from the house; I ran and ran, until my body could no longer sustain the energy I was forcing onto it. Catching my breath I looked up and there stood Nanoha's favourite café, I opened the door and stood in.
I settled myself down onto a seat and ordered a cup of hot chocolate. As I waited for my order I surveyed the place and my eyes halted at the sight of Nanoha and Yunno sharing a drink. I felt sick, very sick. I wanted to look away, to believe it was all a bad dream. However, after the drinking, they kissed, lips to lips. The kiss was a long one and my body could no longer hold it in, I ran outside the store and threw up.
I felt horrible.
Even though I was trenching wet from the outside rain, I could no longer feel the cold. I decided to make my way back home until I saw Yunno rushing out of the café, followed by deafening screams coming from the café. I hurried back in.
Four hard-faced men in dark jackets and pants were each holding a pistol. However that wasn' t the cause of my revulsion. A fifth man, he had a grim face and a dark overcoat was hanging loosely on his shoulders. He had his gun pointed towards Nanoha's temple.
"I only want the money and the girl." The café owner handed him all the money that was contained in the cash register. As soon as he received the money, he along with his gang began to exit the café until I blocked the exit.
"Leave her alone!" I stared at him with deathly glares. He wasn't leaving.
"Fate chan, I don't want you hurt. Leave." Nanoha sobbed.
"That's probably what Yunno would do."
I looked at the man who kidnapped Nanoha and kicked him in the shin. I gave a light smirk.
"You Bit**! Get her."
As soon as the command was called the four men charged towards me. I wasn't going to lose.
I flung myself towards them, miraculously dodging their bullets. I managed to take one of the men's guns and before anyone could comprehend what had happened, blood bubbled from each man's mouth and I heard screams as they fell forward, their head coming to rest by bystander's feet. I really am fast, huh.
The fifth man, with Nanoha still in his hands shouted and swore.
"I've still got her in my hands."
I swiped his gun from him releasing my anger, I kicked him a few times. He was squirming on the floor as the pain lanced through his body. I was about to finish him off with the gun when Nanoha stopped me.
"It's enough. Fate-chan." She lowered my arm to my sides.
"But…"
Nanoha stepped in front of me and embraced me. "Fate-chan."
I gazed at Nanoha, the girl I loved was so kind, so very kind that she could let her enemy go even if they tried to take her life. My gazing stopped as the fifth man from behind Nanoha stood up with a knife in his hands, getting ready to bring it down towards Nanoha's neck. Without hesitation I swung around and before I knew it the knife was stabbed across my chest from the back. I looked down towards my chest and saw the tip of the knife smeared with blood. I touched it…it was real.
Suddenly, Nanoha seized the gun from my hands, trembling she pulled the trigger, shooting the man right in the center of his forehead.
"SOME ONE ANYONE CALL THE FRECKING AMBULANCE DON"T STAND THERE, CALL!" Nanoha shouted madly.
I shushed Nanoha, placing a finger to her lips to calm her down.
Fate chan… Don't Don't…" Great drops fell from her eyes. "Sorry Fate chan , its all my fault." She raised the gun to her temples. "Fate chan, I'll join you."
Using my remaining strength, I snatched the gun off her. "N-Na"
The sharp seizures in my chest prevented me from replying right away. The bleeding got worst and soon my jacket was stained heavily with crimson red blood. "Nanoha, Promise me, y-you're live, live for me."
Nanoha shook her head. "Fate chan, I love you… I-I won't be able to live without you…Fate chan…don't go"
Nanoha gave me a tighter embrace as she cried her eyes out, I could feel I was dying, but either way I wiped her tears. I tried to voice my feelings towards her but no sound came out.
Using the blood which was smeared on my hands, and my last strength I wrote a message on the ground.
The pain in my chest lessened and I no longer had the strength to stay awake.
ooooooooooooooooooooooooo
