Bring Me To Life
A/N: ah. Another angsty Senru. What else can you expect from me? [shakes head self-deprecatingly]

[how can you see into my eyes like open doors
leading you down into my core]
Akira was staring at me again. Just blue against blue. I could see my reflection in his clear pools of blue. When he looked at me like that, I felt as if he could see inside me. See secrets I have kept hidden for many years. Read my thoughts. As if... he was me. And yet, he was still himself.
[where I've become so numb
without a soul
my spirit sleeping somewhere cold
until you find it there and lead it back home]
If Akira wasn't around when he had been... I wouldn't have been alive today. I owe my life to him.
[wake me up inside
wake me up inside
call my name and save me from the dark
bid my blood to run
before I come undone
save me from the nothing I've become]
[flashback]
There is no other way out, I thought to myself. No other way than death. I glanced down at the busy street below. The cars looked like matchboxes and the people looked like ants. I took a deep breath and prepared myself for the jump.
But something... just something held me back. I reflected on the past happenings. My parents had divorced. My sister died in a car accident. Hanamichi had broken up with me. My life wasn't worth living.
"Rukawa! What are you doing!" That voice. It's so familiar. I jerked my head around. Yes, it was him. Sendoh Akira.
He rushed to me and locked his arms around me to prevent me from jumping.
[end of flashback]
[now that I know what I'm without
you can't just leave me
breathe into me and make me real
bring me to life]
I was perfectly happy with Akira. But I always had a haunting dread over me; what if he left me? Left me the way Hanamichi did, and break my heart once again? It took me long enough to recollect the thousand shatters and mend it again. I didn't want to be hurt again...
[wake me up inside
wake me up inside
call my name and save me from the dark
bid my blood to run
before i come undone
save me from the nothing i've become
bring me to life]
I blinked back a tear at just the prospect of it. Akira's brow immediately creased into a frown at seeing the crystal-like tear trickle slowly down my cheek. He reached across the bed and gently wiped it.
[frozen inside without your touch
without your love darling
only you are the life among the dead]
Just one touch. The gentle touch filled with love and caring... I kicked myself inside. How could I even doubt him?
[all this time i can't believe i couldn't see
kept in the dark but you were there in front of me
i've been sleeping a thousand years it seems
got to open my eyes to everything
without a thought without a voice without a soul
don't let me die here
there must be something more
bring me to life]
I forgot my worries and let Akira pull me to him possessively, protectively. For some reason I always felt right and safe in his embrace.
~owari~
A/N: Phew. Finally done. This is just a sort of spur-of-the-moment fic, so forgive the... haste of it. And the shortness. I know its short, don't rub it in. I was just listening to Evanescence and POOF! Story idea. Of course, yaoi doesn't really need story ideas. Just as long as it's Senru.. just kidding!
