This is a songfic based on Tenkuu no Escaflowne the movie theme song, Yubiwa by Sakamoto
Maaya. Somehow... the lyric is perfect for Izark and Noriko.

[namida ga atokara afuredashite
My tears come forth after all
saigo no egao ga nijinde mienaino
I cannot see your last smile]
It is over. My time in this world is finished.
My duty is done. And now I have to go back to
my own world. It hurts!
I feel my tears start trickling down my face,
slowly... more and more. Izark... I don't want
to leave you! I don't want to!
Why do we have to come from different worlds?
And just when I'm beginning to love you more.
You're putting your best smile for me. I can
see that you're bravely trying to hide your
sadness. Are those tears I see in your eyes?
Do you not want to lose me too?
Izark... I... I love you!
[ikanaide ikanaide koko ni ite
Don't go, don't go, stay here
sora e hikarikakenukete iku
Running up towards the sky]
So it is time.
Noriko, how can I convince you not to go? But
you have to! This is not your world! And what
about your family? They will miss you... and I
will too.
Noriko. The One I love.
How many times have you saved me? How many
times have you strengthen me? I love you, Noriko.
And because I love you, I don't want you to stay
here in this world. You don't belong here. As
much as I don't belong in your world.
Please, leave me. Leave this world. Your family
and friends are waiting.
And remember me.
[konna ni chisana watashi dakedo
Even if it was that little me
anato o dare yori seippai aishita
I loved you more than anyone]
Ah, my heart is aching.
You're right. You're absolutely right. As much
as we love each other... our worlds are not
destined to be together.
But you know what? I believe that WE will be
together! How? Well... I still don't know that
part. But I love you. I love you! I've loved
you ever since I first held you in that forest
where you found me!
And I believe that our love is meant to be.
No matter from where we are.
[arigatou ikutsumono taisetsuna kimochi
Thank you for those countless important feelings
watashite kureta yo ne
You gave them to me]
I can't thank you enough. You've truly changed
me. From that cold heartless young man... it
really amazes me what you see in me, Noriko.
The way you touch my hand. The way you speak my
name. The way you hold me. What you've done to
me can't be described in words.
Thank you. Thank you for loving me. And to
make me realize that I love you too.
[sono toki zutto atashi wa kiekaketa hikoukigumo o mite ita
Back then I kept watching those dissolving clouds]
I don't think I'd be able to hold back my tears
any longer, Izark. I don't want you to see me
crying in front of you. I want to put on my best
smile just for you. So now... under the blue sky
you love so much, I will smile just for you.
Noriko, you're very brave. I can see you
struggling not to cry. I love you even more just
because of this. And now... I will not cry either.
The blue heavens is my witness, of my real smile
for you.
[wasure naide hitori janai
Don't forget you're not alone
hanaretemo te o tsunaide iru
Far away yet holding hands]
Never forget me.
Never.
Although we're apart...
... we're always together.
Just remember me.
You will always be inside of me.
[hajimete no koi hajimete shitta
My first love, the first time I got to know
konna kanashimi ga aru koto
That there is such sadness]
The first time I feel this way.
The first time I love someone.
It breaks my heart to see your smile.
Would I cry? Maybe I would... your smile...
[nanika ga shoumetsu shitemo nanika ga futatabi yadotte
If something goes away, another will come again
wakare ni kureta hohoemi o tsuyoku ikiou to iu
The farewell smile you gave me, to live on with strength
anata kara no message
That message from you]
Goodbye, my love.
Don't worry.
Yes...
... we will meet again.
Someday...
... somewhere.
I will remember that last smile you give me.
I will live with the strength you give me.
Because that is what you want.
Yes, that is what you want.
[itsu kitto kaeri futari naraba
When you come back, we are two
touku temo hitomi mitsume au
Even far away, the eyes watch each other]
Be strong, my proud warrior.
I love you, innocent one.
Live with the love I have for you.
Sleep at night with me in your memories.
Because we will meet again.
Surely.
[kibou to iu na no subete o kakete
Staking it on all hope
yakusoku o shiou yo
Let's make a promise
ano hi no hageshisa o
Today's vehemence
daite ashita saku mirai o ikiru
Embrace it, to live tomorrow's future]
I look at my watch.
Grrrr..... where's that bus! It's supposed to be
here half an hour ago!
I sigh desperately. There goes my plan to watch
the newest movie at the cinema. Oh well, this
gives me more time to thinking about my beloved.
What is he doing right now, I wonder? It's been
three years... and I'm still sure that we will
meet again.
I give the bus schedule a reproaching look. Then
suddenly I hear hurried steps approaching the bus
stop.
"K'so! I'm late!"
A little annoyed because I'm distracted from my
line of thoughts, I look up to see the newcomer.
Time freezes.
The familiar face I love so much, only with short
hair this time. The eyes... the lips... all of
him...
"Izark?"
He looks at me. His eyes widen.
"Noriko?"
Suddenly I'm in his embrace. The one I love,
although not the exact same person in that world,
is here. Everything is gloriously perfect.
"Finally. Finally--"

Author's note:
Okay, that last sentence actually can be said by both of them.
Ahem... I only wish that Hikawa-sensei would end it like this... -_-;;
The fic is especially dedicated to Toyak. Hope this would distract you a little from your
stress!
