I got this idea for two reasons, one for the title which was inspired by the song "Stay with me" by Miki Matsubara.

And the plot was inspired by something that happened to me.  A few years back, a friend of mine died shortly after high school graduation, I was sad, especially since it had barely been five days since her birthday.  And not even three days since graduation.

I was pretty much depressed and couldn't cope with it well.  I couldn't eat much and didn't sleep because of nightmares since I was afraid of having those same nightmares, I just stayed awake in bed.  I only managed to get two hours of sleep at most during the day when I had the television on.  Lasted like that for a couple of months to the point I got really bed ridden sick.

I felt a lot of guilt for her death, because I hadn't spoke to her in a while, and it just hit me so hard.  I knew her since our first year of middle school all the way to high school.  She was a wonderful person.

Anyways, I got really sick because of the lack of sleep and not eating.  Started having severe stomach problems to the point I couldn't even eat anything.  Was in and out the hospital a couple times.  And it didn't help that the next year another friend died.

I may end up publishing and finishing this soon, since I want to have it done before the end of this month.  Like I mentioned the idea came from a personal experience, and that experience that anniversary will be in a couple of days this month in May.  May 27th.

Anyways, so I wanted to give Yuuji a small moment of where everything starts to finally hit him all at once and brings back memories from his past and some may have been distorted by the fear.  A moment of weakness in where his smiles, happiness, and strength can't help.

This is a work of fiction and in no way associated or affiliated with any known organization or any person whether living or dead unless stated otherwise.

I hope that you all enjoy it.
