CASTLE IN THE AIR

Prologue

He's my life.

The first time I saw him, I immediately wanted him to be the one.

The one I'll wake up every morning with.

The one I'll smile to when the world has turned down on him.

The one who'll I'll hold on to even at the edge of a cliff.

The one I'll treasure even more than a diamond.

The one I'll love perfectly even at his most imperfect state.

And the one I'll sing the longest song to even when my voice ran out.

But…

Will he do the same?

Or will he just push me away from him?

His attitude tells me that he'll do the latter.

And it hurts to know the truth.

But why do I still hope?

Or should I say, what is there to hope for?

Yes, I hoped and hoped even when there is nothing to hope for anymore.

Every single day I look at him with the wishing he'll at least take notice of me.

Every single night I pray that he'll suddenly smile at me the next day.

I pray that he'll at least consider me as a friend.

And one night, it happened.

And it was more than what I hoped for.

"Let's go out, just you and I."

That was the night I believed in what they called Miracles.

Was it just a dream? I hope it isn't.

The next day I opened my eyes and woke up with my usual routine, I knew it was a dream.

But I immediately knew it was reality when I saw him smile at me.

That genuine smile that makes my heart beat a thousand times faster.

Echizen Ryoma, it has been three months.

Three months since the day you made my lifetime dream come true.

My castle in the air.

Will this continue?

Or will this be a horrifying nightmare?

Will you let my, OUR, castle fall recklessly to towards the ground?

You won't let that happen right?

I really hope you won't.

But I want you to know that…

I, Ryuzaki Sakuno, shall and will continuously love you even when the nightmare shatters our castle into countless pieces.

A/n: I was just really inspired with a story I recently finished reading. It was OMG! A very sad story! I couldn't stop crying because of it for the whole night. Haha! Anyway, I hope you'll like this one. PLEASE REVIEW!

I have to tell you, Echizen would be quite OOC in this story but that's just the way I want to be! OOC! Haha! At least in that way Sakuno would not be too problematic about his attitude problem.*sigh*
