You know, when Destiny came out 3 years ago I wasnt that hyped about it. I hadnt really looked into it a bunch. I honestly just bought it on a whim. (I cant spell so bare with me) I had played it all but two days before I just fell in love with it. I had just started dating my best friend I had know for years, and I went out and bought her copy. And thats how we took off. Through Destiny I had connected to her like Ive never been able to before. We had done almost everything together. Our first raid, hitting the level cap (she beat me to it) and every event that landed. Even the hours farming materials werent dull to me.
Then we finally met. It was the most amazing night of my life. I can remember every second she had the biggest smile I had ever seen on anyone. I certainly never seen a smile like that for me. We spent a few days cuddling and playing Destiny together amoung usual couple things like going for walks and other stuff. I remember how badly she wanted Monte Carlo and the first Nightfall we had done together in person, she got it. She was so happy. I remember how hard we were laughing and how excited she was to get it.
As time went by i never once felt as if i could have been missing somthing or as if I could be missing anything by being with her. We had our troubles but nothing had ever shaken my feelings for her. And as she moved away from this game, she had been growing away from me as well. I had noticed it before things got worse and just became a depressed husk and my only haven was destiny. A place where i was always welcomed and had amazingly great memorys.
Destiny isnt the cause of the things that transpired. But it has been a significant part of our relationship. So much so i wanted to share this story here. I guess, like Destiny, she outgrew me. And i was no longer able to make her happy. No matter how hard I tried. And it hurts so much that my best friend no longer loved me in the way that we always said we would. The only goal i had worth chasing was the ones i had placed with her at my side. And now in lost. I know its pathetic. But we had a lot together. And i loved her. I still love her. And id give anything to be with her again.
I dont know what i hoped to achieve with sharing this story. Maybe she may stumble upon it and think of me again. Or maybe just to feel better about it for a little while longer. When VoG came back, and I ran it the first time, it wasnt the same. She wasnt there. And completing it didnt feel like I was acomplishing anything. Not with out her by my side. Its lame to see it like that but thats how it feels to me.
Back when we started playing, there was a flower in the tower near the spawn enterence we used to sit when we had nothing to do. And i find myself sitting there by myself wishing she might spawn in and sit next to me. Just one more time. But it probably never will. And when Destiny 2 comes out, it wont be as great as it could be. Ill have to experience it alone this time. And im not looking forward to it.
If you read this far thank you for your time. I just wanted to get something out there as i havent been able to express it very well recently. Thank you guardians, dont let your fireteam disband. No matter what...
[spoiler]I love you. Ill be anything you need me to be, as long as you and I can be together.[/spoiler]
