Authoress' Note & Disclaimer: Meh. No idea what was going through my mind when this happened, but it did. Lucky for you, I decided not to throw it away. All standard disclaimers apply; just beware the Penelo-angst in this drabble of mine.

They say that when we love someone that feeling nevers leaves us, though they might.

It's true; at least, in my case. I had a crush on Vaan as a little girl, up until the point when he became my surrogate little brother, Reks my older one. It seemed almost incestuous to like him that way so I stopped.

My heart would do whatever it was told back then. So did I.

I changed. And now, glimpses of the way Vaan's eyes light up when he talks about Ashe make my heart writhe in perpetual agony.

...He loves me not.
