summary: time is everything. or nothing if you're not by my side.[shounen ai] [akito-centric]
---
The sun slowly creeps up from the mountains, way over there in the east. The yellow rays slowly climb their way to my windows, the ones I never open. It takes effort to, and I don't like wasting effort on something like that.
I don't want to see the sun. What's the point? I don't need to know, or be able to tell the day from the night. It doesn't matter. An hour... a minute... a second.
Time. Year. Month. Day.
They pass by too. And people waste thousands of seconds and minutes and hours on -nothing-.
But they won't give me a second to say anything. A second. They can't spare me a second.
All I need is a second. I can tell you. Everything.
With a second, I can tell you that it hurts when you look away from me.
With a minute, I can touch your cheek, and say again how soft it is.
With an hour, we can embrace and share our body's intermost secrets.
But it's nothing. It's foolish to be able to tell time if you won't listen.
Just for a second.
