Kurama/Maya Drabble. 201 words.
Kurama remembers Maya.
---
I've always dreamed of meeting someone like you!
I open my eyes to a half-dark room and shiver. Cold winter air is flowing in through the slightly open window and the moon's silver light floods the floor. My clock reads three a.m. and I sigh. Another restless night. The same dream awakening me for the fourth night in a row. Why is this bothering me now, after so much time?
Memories shift in and out of my dreams, making a home in my brain. The things I had tried so hard to forget about coming back full force.
And what's more, it's my first love! How romantic.
Her face is painted on my eyelids and I hate it. Because of me, she was suddenly brought into the world of apparitions and spirits and, because of me, she was take out of it just as swiftly.
I keep telling myself it was for her own good. It was. Despite my own feelings, I couldn't allow her to love me. Too dangerous.
So, Shuuichi? I'm ready and listening...
Humans and demons can't be together. Especially if that demon is me.
If I told her the truth, I'd be putting her in danger.
Maya... I'm sorry...
