Hey I went through and made some present tense words into past tense, little grammar here and there. I think being grammatically correct makes this even more epic than it already is:

I have to take my leave once again.
I let you something to read before leaving.
I am selfish too
Late at night when she was alone, she would cry herself to sleep, dreaming of a familiar human commander who would be with her, showing how much he wanted her and loved her. In these dreams she felt like she never wanted to wake up. In the end, when it was morning, she always woke up alone.
Opening night drowned her in her illness once again; the pain that always locked itself inside her bones. When her eyes opened, she was afraid of plunging again into the obsidian terror, with not a soul there to break her fall.
Until one night.
As if Keelah heard her pleas...
"Tali? Are you alright?"
She opened her eyes.
He was here. Was he looking after her?
"Yes...I...I am fine."
He smiled, a beautiful and honest smile full of concern.
"I am relieved...Looks like you don't have a fever anymore."
"F-Fever?"
"Yes, the doctor told me you weren't feeling well, I was concerned so I came to see if you were alright and I took care of you all the night."
He...He did...what?
"I...see. Thank you."
She didn't know if it was the fever again but Tali felt her cheeks burning and her heart soar with joy.
"Well, you seem fine now."
What?
"I will take my leave."
No.
Oh Keelah, N-No.
"I'll see you tomorrow Tali."
Before he could leave, Shepard felt someone forcefully grab his arm. He turned his head until he was face to face with a weeping Tali.
"...?! Tali?"
"Don't leave..."
She doesn't want to be alone again. She doesn't want to feel unrequited love again.
"What do you mean 'leave'? I-"
"Do you yearn for her?"
"What? Who?"
There was no turning back.
Suddenly her throat feel dry and her hands uncontrollably shaking.
"Miranda..."
The name sounded vile coming out of her mouth.
"Do you yearn for her? Do you...like her?"
"Of course I like her, Miranda is my friend, why wouldn't I like my friend?"
A small, nearly inaudible sigh of relief escaped her mouth.
He heard it anyway.
Tali...
Without thinking, slowly, he took off her mask.
She didn't object to it.
His thumbs skim her cheeks and trace her jaw, leaving behind buzzing nerves and a desire to touch him back. Her hands fly to his waist and clamp into him possessively
He chuckled softly.
"You can be a selfish woman sometimes."
She tried to figure out the right thing to say, but nothing came out...And she was forced to look away like a child caught in an act of mischief.
"But you know what?"
She looked back and he kissed her.
It took her completely off-guard.
Into the kiss she could taste everything, his desires, his fears, all the love he beared for her.
It felt like heaven.
"I am selfish too."
Happy turn of the century btw

After a bit of abstinence I came back
and just saw the "fight for the loved" wallpaper I made a while ago,
I thought that one was burried in the data (besides I only remember
sending it as a pm to someone oO).
So I think the question "what
did I miss" is dispensable, since the last time I took a look the thread
was somewhere 'round page 3000 [smilie]../../../images/forum/emoticons/whistling.png[/smilie]
fight for the love? Need to find this...
