"I knew it from the beginning, so I'm not sad."
I knew I was going blind, I knew I could never see again. There was so much to see, so much to lose. And yet, the only thing I wanted to see was your smile. If there was one and only thing I could choose to see, it would be it.
"The colours of dying plants gets blurred. I don't find out the end of a season.
I follow the sound of dying plants. And I feel the end of a season."
It didn't take long for me to become completely blind.
I sat next to you on a couch. I knew there was a TV in front of us, but it wasn't on; neither of us was watching it. Only thing I could see was darkness. No light, nothing. Not you.
You were in my arms, cuddling with me. It was a cold night, and if I could've seen, I would've known it was slightly snowing outside.
There were a few good things about blindness. My other senses became better. I could hear your voice, your laugh, better. I could smell your hair and feel your fragile body.
"Hey, Mikuo", I muttered.
"Hm?" you replied. I really wished you would've talked more. I wanted to sense you in all possible ways.
"Smile", I commanded. From your voice, I knew you smiled; you were amused, and you said: "Why?"
"Even if I can't see you... I wish you are happy. So please, Mikuo... Always smile. No matter what", I answered and pulled you closer. For a moment, you were silent. Then you giggled the most beautiful and innocent laugh and commented: "Don't be like that, Akaito. You know I'll always be happy, as long as I'm with you."
"Then I'll stay with you. Until the end", I promised. And I swore to keep that promise, not to leave you. If I died, I would just protect you as a ghost. If you died, I would follow you. I would follow you, protect you, no matter where you went.
With you, I could manage to live through the dark, long night that became my life. Without you, I would've gone crazy with the darkness and not being able to see anything.
"Even if I wake up and night doesn't end. And even if there are no shiny stars there. Even if all the lights in the town vanish... I saw enough of the happy face of the one I should protect the end of the one I loved. So I am satisfied with it."
A/N
So... Yeah. D.L.N is a song about a person who is going blind (And the song is by the GazettE, as it says in the summary) and I was going to write the fanifc about GazettE's Reita and Kai, BUT I decided I've wrote so much GazettE-fics I'll have to write something else too.
