Hola y'all, it's been a while! and I mean a loonnnnggg while ╮(＾▽＾)╭
...
Sighs.
For those who have followed me/read my fanfictions before, I apologize for basically disappearing for a whole year. Still having trouble trying to balance everything at the moment.
ANYWAYS, this is my first Lelouch/Suzaku fanfiction, I just haven't yet found the motivation to write a long fanfiction, so this will remain a oneshot. _:(´□`」 ∠):_
So please enjoy, and if you like it please do read and review,whether it's just a short comment/constructive criticism, it's always nice to see people responding to what I wrote.
SOOOO without further ado, here it is!
Remembrance
My finger traced the name on the slab of stone, over and over again, as if I was engraving the name into my heart itself.
I didn't understand, never understood, never even wanted to try to understand, why he wanted to leave me. Why he felt that it was so important to leave me.
It didn't matter how bad the world got, how many people suffered. I only ever had one wish: for my arms to forever hold him, cocoon him from the horrors of the world. Instead, these hands were the ones that extinguished his beautiful light from the world.
I remembered the blood, flowing from his wounds, freezing my skin wherever it touched me. His pained expression, love and affection swimming both lavender pools. His fingers, slippery with blood grasping my face. His broken voice, whispering his final words to me.
"I love you, I'm sorry," he breathed, leaning forwards towards me, almost as if he was going to kiss me, as he had done so many times before, before slipping to a side and rolling down the slope. I remembered the almost inhumane scream from Nunally echoed the turmoil in my heart. I remembered how, with each cheer from the crowd, my heart shattered a little bit more, ground into dust and blown away with his last breath.
I remembered how, hidden from the outside world, chaos had ensued, attempts to resuscitate the raven-haired beauty, blood still gushing, straining the beautiful white satin a deep red. I remembered how everyone screamed, yelled, directed their shock, anger, and confusion towards me, demanding answers. I didn't take the helmet off, not once, and rejected anyone and everyone who came near. I remember collapsing beside him, my trembling hand grabbing his, only to be met with a limp, cold hand.
I couldn't feel his warmth, the rush of happiness that would arise within me when I felt his heart begin to race. It wasn't his. Not anymore. I remember how this thought had cemented as I looked at his pale face, once so full of life with a blush, a shy smile, and twinkling, mischievous eyes of purple, more beautiful than any amethyst that can be found.
It was dull, the light gone.
Nothing remained anymore.
I remember the crushing despair.
He wasn't there.
And I was alone once more.
Teeheehee, teeheehee... (~￣▽￣)~
In truth I'm not 100% confident/proud with this oneshot, but one day I was just stressed beyond belief and had so much angst in me that I couldn't help but write something.
I hope you all enjoyed this, whether you're a first-time reader of my work or a much-loved devoted fan. （´・｀ ）
Please review if you DID enjoy this, I always look forward so much to hearing from you guys.
Lots of love,
