This time, this place
Misused, Mistakes
Too long, too late
Who was I to make you wait
Just one chance
Just one breath
Just in case there's just one left

Sitting at home impatiently and frustrated, twenty year old Hinamori Amu stared – which had turned into a glare – at the near by cell phone. Why hadn't he called yet? She tapped her slim fingers on the divorce papers on the glass table in front of her. Glaring at the phone one last time, she picked up the black pen and signed the paper angrily. Slipping off the golden engraved wedding ring, she placed it roughly on the papers. Amu grabbed her luggage and headed out for New York, America, a continuously thudding pain in her chest.

Not long after she left, twenty five year old Tsukiyomi Ikuto – Amu's ex- to be fiancé – had burst into the house in a hurry, panting heavily. "Amu? I'm home, what –" He stopped, staring at the divorcement papers in disbelief. She had actually signed it. "Damn…" He cursed. "DAMN!!!" He cursed louder as it echoed through out the house. He sat on the couch, more sad then angry. A tear escaped from the corner of his eye and he flew into a depressed frenzy. Grabbing the golden ring on the table, he flipped the table over and it smashed into shards.

'Cause you know,
you know, you know,
I love you
I have loved you all along
And I miss you
Been far away for far too long
I keep dreaming you'll be with me
and you'll never go
Stop breathing if
I don't see you anymore

Ikuto walked on the empty streets, clutching the ring tightly in his hand which also had a ring and the heavy rain pouring on his head. He had his head down, his midnight blue hair sticking to his face. Maybe she had signed it because he didn't say 'I love you' before heading off to work. Maybe it was because he took her out to dinner late last night even when she didn't want to. Maybe she hadn't loved him anymore. He clutched onto the ring tighter, thinking of the possibilities.

On my knees, I'll ask
Last chance for one last dance
'Cause with you, I'd withstand
All of hell to hold your hand
I'd give it all
I'd give for us
Give anything but I won't give up
'Cause you know,
you know, you know

He collapsed onto his weak knees in the pouring merciless rain. His life flashed past him as he pushed his eyelids tightly together. The time when he had asked her to dance when she had just turned eighteen, and then when he pulled out that ring – the one he was clutching so hard onto – and that hope just thudding in his chest. When she said yes, it had felt like his heart exploded of happiness. He embraced her petite figure and in the present, now, he had wished he had just one more second to embrace her again. He stood again, refusing to give in to the rain that seemed to not have pity on him.

I love you
I have loved you all along
And I miss you
Been far away for far too long
I keep dreaming you'll be with me
and you'll never go
Stop breathing if
I don't see you anymore

Amu sat in airport, waiting for her flight. She felt slightly guilty, divorcing him like that. She clutched onto the fabric resting on her heart, refusing to cry. Even if everyone, including Ikuto, had been there to cheer her up, the tears would burst out anyway. She continuously cried, failing to stop it. "Ikuto…" She whispered. "I need you…" She stood up abruptly, grabbed her luggage and ran towards home.

So far away
Been far away for far too long
So far away
Been far away for far too long
But you know, you know, you know

Ikuto walked into a dead alleyway and heard some people talking. He heard some feminine voices saying stop, some of them wincing helplessly. He peered up, past his wet hair and saw about seven men, around his age, surrounding two short petite girls. "Hey." Ikuto said, narrowing his eyes at the men. They turned around, and in their hands were guns and knives. "Go away. Go beat the bush." One of the men said gruffly. Ikuto merely smirked and ran towards the men.

I wanted
I wanted you to stay
'Cause I needed
I need to hear you say
That I love you
I have loved you all along
And I forgive you
For being away for far too long
So keep breathing
'Cause I'm not leaving you anymore

"Ikuto!!" Amu screamed in the empty street. "Ikuto!!!" She screamed again. People looked at her with weird looks but she brushed it off. She sneezed and hugged her body. It was pretty foolish to not wear a coat in the cold winter. "IKUTO!!!!!!!!" She attempted, almost screaming her lungs out.

Ikuto grabbed one of the men's knives, stabbing it into another. Three had already been knocked out, unconscious or hurt while four were left standing. Ikuto's sly smirk slowly disappeared as a bullet shot through his shoulder, an unbearable pain rushing through his body. He turned to face the one with the gun and charged at him, still clutching onto the ring as if he'd die if he let go. Ikuto didn't believe he'd do it again. The man pulled the trigger and the bullet flew, straight into Ikuto's chest.

Believe it
Hold on to me and, never let me go
Keep breathing
'Cause I'm not leaving you anymore
Believe it
Hold on to me and, never let me go
Keep breathing
Hold on to me and, never let me go
Keep breathing

Amu heard the gun shots, flinched but didn't let her search end. Four men ran out from an alleyway, faces frightened. She ran straight into the alleyway, and her eyes widened. There was Ikuto, on the wet concrete, eyes widened and blood surrounding him. It felt like her heart had exploded, but didn't have the same meaning when Ikuto's had, in fact, it was completely opposite. She walked slowly towards him and collapsed beside him, holding his lifeless body in her arms, cradling it. "Ikuto…" She whispered, tears uncontrollably streaming down her face. She held his body closer and his fist opened, a familiar golden ring rolling out. Amu flinched but only held Ikuto tighter. "I love you…" She whispered louder, sirens coming into hearing. Why hadn't she said that once before in their two year marriage?

Hold onto me and never let go.
