Chapter 1- Past, Present, Future
"No!," I screamed, the boy looked at me as if I was crazy, "I forbid you to leave! You hear me!" His eyes, distant as he looked away. "I-"
"No!" I cut in. There's nothing he can say to change my mind. If he leaves, I hate him forever, let him choose his path.
"I have to!." He protested.
"Why?! Can't you at least tell me why my best friend claims he can never see me again? Huh?! You become the most important person in my life, the only one I can depend on, and you turn your back on me? You think that's okay?! It might be to you, but what about me?! Don't I mean anything to you?!" Hurt claimed his eyes. And then it hit me. "I'm… I'm so sorry." I said, never, never in my whole life that I'd known him since I was 3 had I yelled at him.
"I can't," he said simply, "I can't tell you why I'm leaving-"
"Why not?! You told me everything!" I was mad again. He looked down as if to avoid my glance. There was a tap at the door. "Ryuuzaki, we have to go now or you'll miss your flight." I recognized him as Ryuuzaki's personal servant, or shall I say butler. I watched as Ryuuzaki got up without a word. The second he was out my door, it hit me.
'I'll never see him again!' As my eyes began to water, I let the tears fall on their own as I dashed out the door and rounded the corner, only to trip and fall. He was just out the door when I screamed. "Ryuuzaki Lawliet!" He paused. I took my advantage and ran after him, grabbing him by the arm. "Don't go." I begged, "Please, don't leave me here alone. I don't wanna live without you."
"We'll meet again. I promise." He said, he held out his pinky as a sign of truce. I ignored it and hugged his warm body.
"I love you. Ryuuzaki Lawliet."
"I love you too."
"A promise is a promise."
"Forever."
