This is just a drabble. I don't know when or why I write it but it was in the drafts so I thought I'd put it out into the world.

A long night of Rose thinking alone leads to an interesting conversation between her and Lailah, and a promise between the two.

(birthday fic for Kokiri-Hylian-Hero. Tales of Zestiria. Rose/Lailah. WARNING: SPOILERS FOR THE END OF THE GAME/ANIME)

"Things will be different at the end of the year. Hopefully better and not worse, but just remember that I'm always here for you and I will never leave you. I promise."

This is not about an empty promise that has been broken but about the hope behind the words and the love between two best friends.
