A/N: A one-shot for now, might be turned into a long-chaptered fic soon if you guys like it~ ❤

Remember We Are Together

"And now, for our choral competition, our next participant will be, our new transfee student, Whi-Two!" The anchor smiles all the way to the very end of the announcement, and walks behind the curtains, as Whi-Two arrives center-stage.

"Hey." She whispers, and even though she'd expected it, she's slightly surprised at how the sound of her voice has elevated because of the speakers. She smiles a little as she adjusts the mike, and takes it from the stand, to her mouth.

"I guess, I'll start then." She hears cheers of approval from the crowd, mostly from her female friends and her teachers, and finds her heart lifting, so that even as her legs feel like they are about to give away, she continues, softly;

"This song has been written by me, and it's for a special person out there, who I haven't got to meet, in some time."

She takes a deep breathe, as she sees the audience watch her with anticipation.

'Breathe in, breathe out. You can do this, Whi-Two!'

"I used to walk alone."

"And then you came,"

"gave a smile."

"Lit up the world."

Even as she sings this, she can feel the words vibrating in her mind, she feels like, no she knows, that this is what she wants to be. She wants to be free, be able to cry, for whoever she wanted, love whoever she wanted.

"I'll be that girl,"

"you want me to be."

"All for you,"

"for our destiny."

She searches for Lack-Two in the crowd, fearing his reaction, scared that he might think this song was made for him. And if he did, she didn't even want to think about the endless bouts of flirting and fleeing it might bring.

And even so...

'Lord N.' It hurt her. Being without him heart her, wondering if her Lord didn't care about him hurt her, to no ends.

"And I know I seem devoted but please don't take it lightly,"

"because the moment you arrive know I'll be yours entirely."

She spots Lack-Two, and is surprised that it took her so long, given the fact that he's been sitting directly in the front row. She freezes for a second, as their gazes meet.

She feels the back of her neck warm up instantly, and turns away, only to be caught by his eyes another time. He gives her a smile, and for once, for sure, she knows that he's reading what's inside her, and it only strengthens her wariness and doubt, about him being, being a detective who was on her case...

"Our hands will meet, our worlds will be there,"

"and it'll be great knowing that I'm not just a spare."

But, b-but she'd made sure the words in the song would not distinguish as her love for Lord N, it was as ordinary as she could make it be.

"I don't care what you did, what you do, what you are."

"If only you knew how much I love you."

"If only you knew I'd go through all of these things for you."

She can feel the corners of her eyes get wet. It's a wonder she can still sing, what with all the clenching and unclenching her stomach is experiencing, but she does, she sings her heart out, her feelings out.

"Because to me, you're heaven,"

"disguised as fire, but not for long."

She can't be stopped.

"I guess I'll walk back and forth through hellfire for you,"

"knowing my love for you will help me get through, this, all."

She will fight, because that's what Love's all about.

"Love knows no bounds,"

"I'd do anything you want me to,"

"if you told me to do~"

The tears come readily as she recites the most truthful verse of the song.

Even if it meant fooling a police who was on her tracks, be it so, he would never be able to incriminate her, she might just be a grunt, but...

She was in it for love.

She looks at Lack-Two again as she finishes, sees him crossing his arms and looking, slightly, worried.

She waves at the crowd, smiling through her tears.

~L~

Lack-Two unfolds his arms as soon as he sees Whi-Two walk backstage, most probably going to her room to take a break from all this, he thinks.

'Yandere, huh? Well, she's not far from it.'

Lack-Two's lips turn up slightly, as he remembers how Whi-Two was coyly taking glimpses in his direction, all through the song, as if scared he might decode it.

And well, he had.

'Whi-Two, silly girl. I'm literally laughing on the inside right now. That song was so plain, it occurred to you that most people wouldn't see it, but it was made simple.'

'Verses, there were gaps left in them, gaps full of meaning, where words could be placed. Therefore, it was a lot more simple than it ought to be.'

He takes out a leather notebook, and starts taking notes in it, tuning out the conversations of girls around him about whether or not she was singing about Lack-Two.

Uh, he wished it were so. Would make his job a whole lot more easier...

"Let me see..." He muses in a low voice, as he jots down some of the more relevant lyrics that had captured his interest.

Even when written down quickly at such a high speed, his handwriting is still neat and tiny, and the letters are perfectly straight.

'Heaven, disguised as fire.'

'I walked alone.'

'... I don't care what you did.'

No doubt it, his theory was right, and proven to the point.

He's slightly relieved, because she still hadn't gone psychotic to the point of no return or something, for now, it was just love.

But, he wondered, if she practically would do anything for N.

That manipulative jerk, he could be dangerous for her.

He sits still for a moment, debating on whether he should follow Whi-Two, or not.

And at the end he does, and he's fast about it.

Because only he could save her from the depths of this unhealthy relationship she had with a villain. She needs to see the consequences of worshipping such a man.

He'll mak her see through N, and to all the terrible deeds he'd done in the past.

'Please, Whi-Two, be safe. I want you to be safe.'

La Fin~
