Something that came to mind last night, and thought I had to write it out but unlike the other still 'untitled' fic, this is an idea that isn't really developed so still experimenting with it. I thought post this to see what people think. Updates will be a bit slow for this, since I will be writing as I go, so things might change as I go. Hopefully this turns out well..... funny how I gave this a title before actually writing it. :on woohoo:

Infinity - Prolouge
~if you fail, you can forget about it right away
the important thing is not to run away
nothing will start from thinking "if..."~
But I am immortal, you are human… “what if…”
It was fate that brought us together, yet it was destiny that kept us apart.
*****
I watch people come and go, they all come with a different story, some like to tell, some wish to listen and some just want to forget.
Let me introduce myself, I am a bartender, my name is Sae, Miyazawa Sae, I am immortal. Don’t imagine me as a vampire or werewolves like those on TV, I am not, I don't have special powers, I live like humans, I use to be one myself, but fate has given me eternity, I will never die of old age. People have chase and hunted for immortality, in the past kings have wish to live forever, it’s a blessing, but I tell you it’s a curse.
‘Infinity’ the name of the place I work at, isn’t it very fitting for me? I was wondering the streets some years ago and came across this place, they had a hiring sign out in the front. I don’t know what it was but, it attracted me so here I am now behind the counter, working my magic to allow my customers to forget even if it’s just for one night.
“Sae, another round please,”
“Alright, coming right up,”
I quickly put together another cup of scotch on rocks, and passed it to the guy sitting at the corner of the bar. He is one of the frequent flyers, comes back often, I see him a few times a week, always ordering the same thing. Unlike some of the other customers, he doesn’t talk much, till now I still don’t know his name, I’ve asked but he never replied. Some just prefer to forget themselves, and forget the world. Some say the quiet ones are always the scary ones, I’m not sure if I will agree on that but, sometimes their thoughts can be quite surprising.
This is what I do, this is who I am, bartender Sae at your service. What would you like today?
Every night is the same, yet different, serving customers after customers, mixing drinks after drinks but the people are different, the stories are different. I love to watch and observe them, how they interact, how they expressed themselves, how they withdraw, each and every individual is unique and one of a kind.
This is 'Infinity' the creation of endless possibilities. This is where I met her…
apparently: Don't worry I'll continue to nag you when I'm bored keke. For you my little friend I have a "Blue Cloud" a cocktail that contains the almond flavoured Amaretto and the lovely crystal clear Blue Curacao mixed and topped with Vanilla Ice Cream, perfectly suited for the summer.
I was intending to post this earlier but work got super busy so I didn't have time to do this until now.... :badluck:
Thanks you for all those that followed through with this story, to be honest this story didn't live up to what I originally thought it could do. Half way along, I sort of lost sight of where this is heading. I think I have to agree that my random crack scenes are much better then my random emo scenes. :wahaha:
Anyways, all good bad things must come to and end, so here it is the last part to Infinity.... Sorry for ending it so suddenly, I know there is still a lot of things I left hanging, but I had this written out a while ago,and held onto it hoping that some crazy idea will suddenly appear so I can add it in but that never happen.
I hope I didn't disappoint you. I will try harder to improve the next one that I start. Who knows maybe some time down the road I get flashes to make a sequel. :kneelbow:
I do still intend on adding a side story, for their past if I can come up with a decent enough story for the immortal and vampire. :on cloudeye:
Infinity: VI
~when, you're around I become a different "me"
keeping this secret is making me awkward
let's face ourselves and our feelings~
"Ruka" I called the shadow standing beside the river, under the moonlight.
"Sae, it's been awhile, come here have a seat," I slowly made my way over.
"Ruka why are you here? I thought you were out searching for Maria," I asked.
"Call me Sayaka, I'm going by that name right now. Plus I can't just sit back and watch you throw away your life,"
"What do you mean? You know I can match you if it means to live." I asked confused.
"Sae, don't repeat my mistake, I was a fool to let her go, I regret leaving her side, and I spend 500 years waiting and looking for her again, hoping to have her back in my arms. My heart ached every second that we are apart."
"Ruka..."
"Sae, that is my punishment for being weak, for running away, for not believing in our love, please be true to yourself, listen to your heart, don't let the girl go." you told me while looking up into the full moon.
"But how can we be together, I am immortal, she is human,"
"Don't be afraid, let her know your heart, you don't need forever to be happy," you paused before asking me again, "tell me what is the last image you remember of her,"
The image of you standing there in from of me, heartbroken with tears covering your lovely face. I stood there frozen in place, it was all because of me you had to suffer, I took away your smile and left you in tears.
"Go to her, she is waiting for you," I looked up to see you already walking away, lifting your hand in the air to wave without looking back.
I ran without knowing where you are, but my legs took me back to Infinity. I know I look like a mess, still wearing the same clothes from yesterday, hair left down but I don't care right now, I just want to see you. As I near I saw a closed sign at the door, ignoring it I pushed through the doors, the sudden light blinded my eyes while I readjusted.
"YOU!" I heard Yuko scream, I saw her struggling free from your friends, fist ready for me, I guess I really deserve it.
My eyes finally found you, your swollen eyes from crying all night, it was all because of me. My heart sank as I looked at you, what have I done? This is all because of me. I saw you look up and we stood there staring at each other, a world with only us.
I moved myself behind the bar, without wasting time I put together a cocktail, and walked towards you. Kneeling down on both knee, I placed the glass of 'Besame' on the table in front of you, looking in your eyes again I took your hands in mine.
"Yuki... I'm Sorry," my voice struggling to bring out my words as you followed them, I wiped the lone tear that made its presence.
"I wanted to tell you how much you mean to me, I never realized how much I love you until I stepped out that door yesterday." I can feel your hands tighten around mines.
"It was my selfishness that cause you pain, I only thought for myself 'what if'.... and life continue to remind me of my fate, I was scared of losing you forever, I was afraid to make a promise that I can't keep.... I so was lost, lost in myself."
"All this time you stayed by me, I clearly remember every day, every minute we spend together, I am guilty of taking away that smile of yours and replacing it with tears." I paused to look down a ashamed of my own actions, but today is different, I won't run anymore.
"I won't run away anymore, I will fight, fight for you and I. I'm not what you think, I'm not good enough for you, but I don't want to lose you. My heart can not beat without yours to guide it, without you I am without a soul." I poured my heart to you, hoping you will understand, I know I can't wish for forgiveness but I want you to know.
"Yuki... there is something about me you should know, I'm....." you silence me with your finger, "I know, a bat told me," and with your freed hand you picked up the 'Besame' and took a sip from it before placing it back on the table.
"Wasn't there another name for this? I can't seem to remember, can you tell me," you said with a smile.
I stood up pulling you with me, both my arms made its way around your waist to hold you tight, I looked into your eyes and matched your smile.
"Let me show you, what Besame mean," I said.
I lean forward to capture your waiting lips, slowly I deepened the kiss, tasting those lips that I wanted for so long. I can taste the sweet raspberry and passion as I felt you answer my heart, your arms made their way around my neck to pull me closer, while I did the same to feel your body on mine.
You surprised me when I felt your tongue brushed across my lips, I gasp and you took advantage to slip into my world, exploring my inner essence. I slowly introduced you to every corner of my cavern, before asking to visit yours. We stayed there connected in each other's arms, our form of communications until we had to disconnect for air.
I leaned in to place my forehead on yours, not wanting to feel the slightest separation, I laid a quick peck on your lips before pulling you into a hug. From now on you will be my world, I don't care if there won't be forever, I will wait, I will find you again even if I have to wait another 500 years, but for now, you are all I need.
Let me be your Infinity.
~nothing will start from thinking "if..."
when you're in love
there are no right answers
as for those "what if..." theories,
just think positive!~
-----------
- I wonder if anyone notice the italic lines at the start and end of each update and wondered where they came from. keke
- Those italic section are lines taken from French Kiss's "If", I picked out certain translated lines for each update with them being somewhat related to that chapter's content. The only update without one is chapter 5 since that was written after the story was completed as a side story out of Sae's POV.
- So that means this story from the start was meant to be a SaeYuki, but I as I started I had thoughts of making it a different Sae pairing so I purposely left the name out of the first few chapter, until I was sure I can't replace Yuki with anyone else.
- Oops forgot to mention that Besame translates to "kiss me", it uses an ultra smooth tequila liquer called Agavero, it has the essence of the Damiana flower infused into the tequila which is made from blue agave. Then take the tequila and mix it with passion (the passion fruit juice) then add a couple raspberries and lime wedges for finishing touch.
Once again I hope the ending isn't too disappointing.
