"I love you," A young raccoon couple said to each other, their hands intertwined in a loving grip as they stared in each other's eyes. Their lips were curved in a content smile as they walked on the road, seemingly floating. They were obviously in love with each other, that was noticeable.
But what nobody noticed, were a pair of depressed and enraged icy blue eyes stare at the two hatefully from afar.

A female, pink bunny sat in the restaurant, her nails digging in her arm rest as she stared at the loving couple from afar. It wasn't that she had any grudge on the young couple, heck, she barely knew them. It was the love and happiness of the couple that got to her. It was the reason why she glared at them like they were the devil themselves.
'I had the same thing as them. I also experienced that,' she thought sadly, remembering her previous relationship, 'Why did mine have to break and theirs are left unscathed?'
Yin sighed softly as she twirled her straw in her drink, watching the ripples move on the surface. She leant softly on the wall beside her as she remembered him, her ex-boyfriend.
'Why did you have to do this Yuck? Why? Didn't you use your head? Didn't you even think of what would happen because of your actions?!'
A tear slipped out of her eye as Yin wiped it with her sleeve, smiling bitterly.
'Who am I kidding? You probably never even thought of anything but the glory and the victory. My image just passed your mind at that time, my words were stashed in the back of your head.You weren't thinking about me at all...my eyes are holding back the tears...my pride won't let you see me act as a fool...I'll be damned if I let you know that I still feel something for you...'
Looking out in the clear, blue skies, Yin thought back on what happened three weeks ago.
Flashback
Yin slept peacefully in her bed, her fingers curled around a small object as a small smile adorned her lips. She was having a very nice dream about her boyfriend and it helped to put her mind at ease. But her sleep didn't stay peaceful for long, because after one minute, the ring of telephone rang loudly across the dojo.
Groaning, Yin sat up on her bed as she looked about the place. Loud snores confirmed that her master was undisturbed while a small form beneath the covers of the opposite bed stated that her brother was also very much asleep. Seeing as she was the only one awake, Yin shuffled out of the covers as she headed for the door, opening it softly and closing it without a sound. Running downstairs, Yin went to the vibrating telephone as she spoke to the other person on the line, her voice soft and tired,
"Hello?" she asked softly, shielding her eyes as the sun's rays hit her.
"Um yes, is this Ms. Yin of the Woo Foo Dojo?" a smooth and authorative voice said on the other line.
"Yes this is her. May I ask the reason why you are calling so early?" Yin whispered as she twirled the phone cord with a finger.
"Yes, this is the police calling Miss. And there had just been a bank robbery earlier and.."
Yin interrupted, "A robbery?! Why weren't we called? Is everyone alright? Did you catch the thief?" she asked at the speed of sound, her mouth never seeming to stop.
The man on the other line coughed a bit as Yin quieted down, understanding the silent plea, "Yes, and the reason why you weren't called was because you were asleep. Nobody was hurt and yes, we caught the thief." he said smoothly as Yin sighed in relief.
"That's good. But why exactly did you call?" she asked once more as she sat down on the chair next to the phone.
"Well, after we caught the thief, he put up a lot of fight, demanding to be able to make a call. When asked who he wished for, the man said your name. He says he wants to speak to you."
Yin bit her lip softly, "But why?" she asked.
"We don't know either." the man replied.
Yin sighed as she though on whether or not to meet this person. Her curiosity won over as she agreed, "Okay. I'll be there in a few minutes." she said.
The man nodded his head though Yin couldn't see that, "We understand. We shall be expecting you later." he said as they both hung up, Yin's tight grip on the arm rest only getting tighter. Deciding to just get this over with, she went upstairs to change as she looked back out the window, her gaze on the police station. Little did she know, what would happen later on....

Yin ran in the room, panting lightly for her jog but returning her composure as she saw the police and a man in black sitting in the middle of the room, presumably waiting for her.
A man that looked to be in his mid-20's smiled at her, waving his hand as she came closer. This may be the man who was on the phone earlier.
Looking at the figure in black, she guessed it was the thief that wanted to see her. Wincing slightly, she sat down in front of him as the police left the room, leaving the two of them alone.
Wiggling uncomfortably in her seat, Yin looked at the figure strangely, "Um, hey. So what did you want to talk to me about?" she asked, watching as the man lowered his head, preventing her from seeing his face.
Then a soft, raspy voice came from him, making Yin's eyes widen as she stared at the figure, "Y-Yin?"
'T-That voice!' she thought, 'I know that voice. It's, It's.....'
"Yuck?" she whispered, placing her hands her lap as she lowered her head, afraid of what would happen if she were to be possibly, right.
The man raised his head up softly, revealing a face she knew all too well. Tears brimmed in her eyes as she tightened her hands, forming a fist, "W-Why?" she asked, her voice soft with a tint of anger in it.
"Y-Yin, I can explain..."
"I don't want your #$#^%& explanation!", she shouted, her hands slamming down on the table hard on the table in front of them, "I want to know how you could this. I want a reason...."
Yuck remained silent, his head hung. Tears fell from his eyes as they fell to the floor.
Yin looked at him, still waiting for an answer. But when minutes passed, and silence still hung in the room, she snapped.
"Fine then! If you won't answer me, then it's over! Don't ever show your face to me again!"
He broke my heart, so I broke his jaw....
Standing up from her seat, she turned and walked towards the door, her steps heavy and showing her rage. Looking back at the man behind her, Yin gave out a choked sob as she sprinted out of the room, her mind filled with questions, her heart in pieces.
Running out of the room, Yin never looked back again, a single thought in her mind ' The hardest part about walking away from you is knowing you won't run after me'
'I never thought the person I love the most would be the person to hurt me the most.'
End Flashback

Yin took a sip from her drink as she set it down, sighing as her head was filled with thoughts,
'I made a lot of stupid mistakes in my life,' she thought, 'but the biggest mistake was thinking that the guy who hurt me the most would never hurt me again. How wrong I was.'
Looking around her, Yin saw another couple exchange loving looks. She frowned angrily as her heart clenched, jealousy filling her.
'I'm convincing myself, I'll find someone new. I won't be alone, and I won't be with you. You're waiting for me to crawl back to your side, but no, not this time, I'm keeping my pride. You'll never know how much I miss you... you won't see it in my face... You'll never know that I'll never find another guy that could take your place... Because I'll be smiling when I see you... No, my tears won't ever show... I might always love you... But you're never gonna know.' she thought hatefully, a bitter look on her face. Standing up from her seat, Yin left her payment on the table as she strode out of the restaurant, heading for the park.
______________________________________________________________________________________________
Yin walked through the park, her hair swaying as the wind played around with it. She tucked a particularly annoying strand behind her ear as she caught sight of the falling cherry blossoms.
She smiled. The sakura trees in the park were at full bloom and they looked absolutely breathtaking. Giggling as some of her sadness went away, she pranced about in the park, not worried about being seen for the park was deserted.
But as she caught sight of a falling blood red sakura petal, her smile disappeared as tears brimmed in her eyes,
'That petal...reminds me a lot about my heart. I guess somewhere in my heart, I'll always love him. He carved out this piece of me that I can never have back and even if I could it wouldn't matter because he's torn it into shreds. So now there's this hole that only he can fill. The thing is I know he'll never, ever fill it. Because now he's off in jail and he forgot the way back into my heart. If only he'd call and ask for directions.'
Yin shook her head wildly as she sat down on the bench, disbelieving of the words she thought of, "Wow, I'm becoming really poetic today." she said, trying to cheer herself up. But how was that even possible.....
'I'm frustrated because I can't tell if it's real. Mad because I don't know how you feel. Upset because we can't make it right. Sad because I need you day and night. Angry because you won't talk and tell me why. Aggravated because you don't understand. Disappointed because we can't be together. That's what I feel right now. A jumble of messed-up emotions.'
She felt so many things right now. But what really overrode her other emotions, was regret.
'You always said you hate to see me hurt, you hate to see me cry, so all of those times you hurt me, were you closing your eyes?I wish I never said good bye... I wish I never let it die... but I did, and now all I want to do is cry. '
Laying her head on the bench, she curled up into a tiny a ball as she sobbed, the full effect of what she'd done and lost gripping her in a tight hold. She cried because she lost him, she cried because she regretted it, she cried because she knew it was partially her fault. And she cried because she wanted him back.
Have you ever wondered ,which hurts the most: Saying something, and wishing you had not....

A green bunny sat alone in a cell, his eyes glued to the floor as he sat on his bed. He was as confused as the former was, his emotions overflowing inside him. And just like her, regret beat the rest,
..........or saying nothing, , and wishing you had?

A.N: Just a way to ease my mind and probably cure my writer's block. If anybody wants Yin and Yuck to get back together here, just say so in your review and I might add a second chapter. Anyway, please R&R! Thanks for reading!
