LIKE I'M GONNA LOSE YOU
Drama/Romance
A Naru/Mai songfic. "Like I'm gonna lose you by Meghan Trainor feat. John Legend"

They were walking home from the office, hands clasped together, in a comfortable silence. It was already dark and the only light that illuminates their way were from the street lamps. She was smiling all the time at the man she was with and though the man's face remained impassive the woman knows he is also as happy as she is.

She was talking to him about what happened to her at school before going to work and he just listened to her – sometimes tease her once in a while. She stopped walking and looked up and frowned to see that there were almost no stars to be seen. She felt him coming behind her and smiled when he hugged her from the back.

She let out a deep breath and said,"Say, Naru-". She looked behind her and was surprised to see him nowhere. "Naru?"

She looked around her and sees him nowhere. "Naru? This is not funny." She turned around, looked left and right but still she can't see him anywhere.

She called him over and over again but he didn't answer. Tears started to form in her eyes, "Naru! I'm going to kill you if you won't show yourself right now!"

She wiped a tear that escaped, angrily. She bit her lip to keep herself from sobbing. Her heart beat fast that it started to ache. She looked and turned around again and started to notice that it's getting darker and darker.

"No! Naru! Where are you?" She stood there and closed her eyes; crying silently.

'Mai…wake…open…eyes. Mai!'

She instantly opened her eyes and was taken aback. There, beside her, was her Naru, sleeping soundly.

She let out a soft sob, lift her hand and touched his face.

'I can feel him.' She let out a sigh of relief, 'That was just a dream, Mai.'

She studied his face and let her finger followed; from his eyes, nose and lips. She touched his cheek again and closed her eyes.

'He's breathing, he's alive and he's here with me.' She thought, convincing herself that Naru won't leave her like that but then she realized that's there's a possibility that she'll lose him. They weren't dating for that long and they keep on arguing over small things.

She felt something warm covering her hand so she opened her eyes and saw him staring at her lovingly. She smiled at him but he didn't smile back. He was just staring at her, holding the hand on his cheek and rubbing his thumb at the back of her palm.

He leaned closer and closed the distance between them; lips touching but not moving. He moved back and looked at her in the eyes. Unbeknownst to them, they had the same dream and they come to realize that they could lose everything.

"I love you," he whispered.

She nod her head, "I know. I love you, too."

"I won't leave you."

"Hm."

"I won't let go of you."

She let out a sob, "Me, too."

He sighed, "I'll try not to hurt you."

She chuckled, "Hm, let's love each other-"

He put his hand on her cheek, "Like we're saying goodbye."

"I love you, Naru."

"I love you, too, Mai."
