A/N: Thanks for clicking on this, I really appreciate it! Anyway, I wasn't really sure what to rate this and this is my first Kagerou fanfic (if you could call it that since I don't actually change anything). I hope you like it. Enjoy~


I guess I should've realized back then how impossible everything was, but I never really knew this at the time. I had always believed that if I kept faith things would eventually be fine, yet as that faith began to diminish, it was hard to hope for a better tomorrow. Days flew by in a blur, until I was left standing in the midst of that hazy summer day. Fear knotted in my stomach as uncertainty filled my brain to the point where no other thoughts could be processed. So there I was, leaning on the railing of the school's roof, looking down at the ground that I was soon forced to face. Another surge of panic coursed throughout my body, and I muttered the words, "Guess I'm not as brave as I thought."

What was I doing? Was I an idiot? No, I was trying to be the hero of this story. For a moment I remembered my famous catchphrase: "red is the color of heroes". Now those words left a sick feeling in the pit of my stomach, and for once red was the last thing I wanted to see. The scarf around my neck fluttered in the gentle breeze. My eyes closed briefly while I tried to muster up any courage left in my body, yet I still couldn't stop trembling. Even in this unbearable heat my body felt numb and cold.

I reached out a shaking hand, all the while leaning further over the edge. I suppose I was delaying my inevitable fate, even though it was only by a few seconds. Why couldn't I just be brave and get this horrible thing over with? I asked myself this, but I already knew the answer: I didn't want to leave. Goodbye was always way too sad and far too lonely for me. I suddenly realized I couldn't hear a thing other than my heart pounding loudly in my chest. Tears brimmed my eyes until I soon found myself silently crying. No, I wasn't ready for "goodbye", I just didn't have to courage to say it. So I didn't.

Not looking back, I quickly pushed myself off of the railing and shut my eyes tightly. The tears continued to trickle down my face, faster now, despite my efforts to stop them. The harsh wind whipped around my, and tugged my hair and clothes every which way. I knew the end was surely soon to come. "I love you all," was all I managed to choke out. And then, there was a loud thud, followed by pure silence.


A/N: So, what did you think? I'm not very good with emotional scenes, sorry... Anyway, like I said before, this is my first Kagerou fanfic, so please don't be too harsh. Constructive criticism is always welcome, but just being plain hateful isn't. Once again, I hope you liked it.

And have a nice day/night/whatever! ;)
