Writing Meme #02: Write a Love Story
Prompt: Write a love story

---------------------------

It's a memory that has turned fuzzy on the edges. Not quite forgotten, never fully remembered. Her sweet voice still rings in your mind's ear but the words she speak can never be fully recounted by your consciousness. You watch the sceneries float by and memories of your hometown crash into you like a great wave. The house you grew up in is still the same except the ivy has taken most of the facade. Your mother smiles at the sight of your face and rushes you in, chastising about the way you dress, stating that city food has no nutrients and you just sit and listen and watch her prepare lunch for you, reveling in the familiar presence.

Afternoon comes and finds you sitting on a swing in the park, reminiscing and trying to grasp the remnants of that fleeting day. A girl crying and running after a car and falling down, tripped with her knees bleeding.

The swing has stopped long ago and you only noticed now. A strong breeze comes and carries the leaves around you and a sun hat flies into your view. You catch it absent-mindedly and someone behind you says thanks. You turn to give the hat back and freeze.

"Yuu?"

A soft, sweet voice. Part stranger, part friend. A floral scent. Liquid almond eyes and bright smile.

A great wave crashes into you and it's not so much a half-remembered recollection as it is full-blown reality.

It's her.

A/N: I used the name Yuu because it sounds like You. :D This was my first attempt in writing a normal love story. Thank you very much. This was supposed to be written for a writing challenge but I lost the prompts. Yes, I suck. I'll fix the links if I ever come across the prompts on my laptop. :D
