God I miss them... They left me... Why did they leave me? Haruko, you were so radical. You were a symbol of every thing that my life was missing, and it was all a lie. I always knew that,and I still loved you, and you left me. Mamimi, I'm sorry I treated you that way. You were so torn up inside. Crying out to be rescued, I could of helped but by the time I realized what was right in front of me it was to late. Eri I loved you most of all. I knew that I loved you. I knew you loved me, but I pushed you away. I was so afraid that you would leave me like the other two... I just... I pushed you away until you left me. I know it was my fault, and how ironic that this wouldn't have happened had I not expected it to. But no more! No one will ever leave me again! No one will ever run away with my heart! Tonight I will make sure of that! You hear that you fuckers! No one is ever going to leave me behind! ...I will never catch up with you... the next best thing is to cut you off and thats what I'll do.
Tears stung his eyes. Eri had left him a year ago. She moved out of town with out muttering so much as a goodbye to him. she left him exactly nine years after Haruko and Mamimi had. He thought that those wounds had healed, but her departure riped them wide open. Tonight was the anniversary of all their departures, and tonight it was Naota's turn.
He reached down and grabbed Haruko's bass. He pointed the neck to his sobbing head, and pulled the trigger.
A/N This story obviously takes place ten years after the anime. I'm sorry to all you Naota fans. This idea has been in my head for a while and wouldn't leave me alone. Please review.
