#13 : Don't Go
別れ

"Teru! Teru Please! Stay with me!" Stay here even in this dream. Please. . .don't go.

"Y/. . .n"

"I'm here. Please just hang on, Teru." Mixes of rain and tears fell from your face to Teru's. The delicate drips of the downpour crashed on both your pale skins.

The pain bombarded your heart. It crushed it, painfully. You wanted so bad to end the pain but. . .you knew.

You knew that the only way to end this is to wake up. But you didn't want to do that. . .because that means you'll have. . .

to leave him.

But you can't do that. You can't just leave. . .especially now because of his state. He's hurting. . .he's in pain. You were too. You wanted to end the pain so badly, but you still couldn't leave him. So. . .

you stayed.

Despite having the chance to end everything--especially the pain. You chose not to leave.

You chose to stay with him.

He faintly smiled back at you.

So please stay with me too, Teru.

"Don't cry. That's the last thing I want to see from you."

His soft voice just made you cry even more. Please don't take him, even in just this dream--

"Y/n. . .I'm sorry I didn't get to show my surprise to you. . .but--" Teru slowly slid his hand into the pocket of his pants.

"Here. . ." He raised a twinkling necklace. Delicately handing it to you.

"It's a part of my surprise to you. Wear it, y/n, okay?" Streams of tears trails from him too.

"Please?"

So you won't get to forget about me. I just wanted you to always remember me, y/n. Is that wrong?

I just wanted to have a special place even in just your mind. Because I know that having a special place in your fragile heart only for me is sadly. . .

impossible.

And y/n? I want you to know that. . .I'm already in content just by knowing the fact that you'll be the one that i'll lastly glimpse at. I'm sorry I couldn't stay. His thoughts flooded in his mind and decided to stay in his heart.

A tear of yours made its way to the silver chains of the necklace up to its small diamond heart at the end. He whispered, "I charmed it just for you." He continue to spoke as you sobbed.

"Although. . .I was too scared to say anything or do anything. I just wanted you to know that you are the first ever real love I ever had. I wanted a future with you. . .and I--"

He paused struggling to talk as the pain overtakes his body. He forcefully closed his eyes, making more teardrops fall.

"Stop! You can tell me all these things later as soon as you get help ok?!" You sobbed as you stroke his cheek. Your fingers trembling. He took a glimpse of you and smiled weakly.

"I--I don't think I will be able to tell you these things later, y/n.. . ."

Slowly his voice grew weaker and weaker.

"But before anything, always remember. . .that. . .I love you, y/n. . .

s-so much. . ."

Don't forget about me, okay? His last thought.

The voice that you always loved to hear slowly faded within the cries of the skies and yours.

"Teru. . ."

You called one last time. Hoping to make yourself deaf from all these noises just to hear his voice again.

Everything became even more blurry. The cold rain hugged your body. But his missing warmth traumatized your heart.

You felt yourself leaning your head onto his. And before everything completely darkened, you took one last glimpse to his sunrise-like hair and to the special owner of it. . .he was a light that you cherised so much.

"I love you, Teru."

Everything then blackened.
