Paranoia

A/N: This is another one of those one-shots I came up with at midnight. I enjoy hurting people. On with it!
Twitch, twitch
Violet glared into scarlet, scarlet glared into violet. Cat and rat. Hero and villain.
The writer watched.
The flower bloomed moved out. The rat grew loving the flower. He moved out and into the flowers home. The cat was jealous, wanted revenge.
The dog watched.
The cats jealousy turned to self-hatred. He wasn't good enough for the flower, he wasn't good enough for himself. The cat soon died.
The writer watched.
Friends grew old, snakes and dragons, rabbits and tigers. All moved on.
The dog watched.
A breaking point, that's what he needed. When would it come? Where would he go?
The writer waited.
The writer watched.
The dog listened.
The dog loved.
The writer gave in.
The writer gave up.
The dog grew old.
The writer had no one to share it with.
Now he lays there, on his bed. The dragon says he'll never get up, he might not make it.
Twitch, twitch.
The flower visits, the rat visits, the snake humours him, the dragon does try to hide it.
The writer waits.
Alone, midnight bells chime in the distance. The bells stop. The dog stops, the writer stops. He'll never move again.
"Shigure? Are you alright?" Tohru shook his shoulder gently, waking the writer from his restless sleep.
"I'm fine Tohru, run along with Yuki and Kyou now." Shigure smiles as his flower leaves with the rat and the cat. His flower was growing up.
The writer watched.
The writer waited.
He waited for them to come back. They never did.
A bus crashed into three pedestrians that day. A flower, a rat and a cat. The obituaries stated the names Tohru Honda, Yuki Sohma and Kyou Sohma.
But to the writer they would always be cat, rat and flower.
He watched and waited for his turn to come as he thought of cat, rat and flower.
The dog watched.
The writer waited.
One in the same, together forever. In the body of Shigure Sohma writer and dog.
