"Sto...p stop it! Please!" Ritsu shouted in between moans. Ritsu break away from Takano's passionate kiss, gasping for breath. "But why?! Why?! Why can't we be like before?!" "That's 10 years ago. We are now grown ups . We should stop this foolishness." "What we did 10 years ago was in the past, we should move on." Ritsu avoided Takano's gazed.

" Ritsu but I..." Takano grabbed Ritsu's hand but was shouted at. "Let go! What we did was a mistake." Takano was still holding onto him firmly, having no intention to let go any minute soon. "I just want you to love me like before." "So what you want is just a 'I love you' right? Well that's simple enough." Ritsu sucked in a deep breath and said it. "I love you Takano." For that moment every felt so real for Takano, it was music to his ears but reality just had to strike him. " Now that I have said it, can I leave." Ritsu shook his hand of Takano's and leave .

"Do you really think that just a simple 'I love you' will do?! Are you fooling me?! What do you take my love for! What I want is not just some I love you. I want you to really love me for me not just trying to fool a kid! I know what I did before was my fault but you also hurt me for 10 years so can we go back to before!" "So now you're blaming it on me?!" Ritsu shouted back. "That's not what I meant!" " That's exactly what you mean! I really don't know what I see in you during highschool days, I must be really blind." It hurts. At that moment, everything was a blank, even a small muffled was blocked out.

That one sentence made him broke down. Slowly letting go of the brunet, fresh saltwater trickling down. Ritsu took this chance and escaped his clutch, leaving the now despair man behind.

" What have I done wrong? Why must my life be this jaded? All I want is love. Why must it always be so hard. RITSU!"

Love is hard to find, hard to keep and hard to forget, everyone knows that.


"Hey Takano! Takano! Wake up!" Ritsu yelled at the editor in chief. " Why are you crying?" Ritsu asked with an innocent look. However Takano said nothing, he just hugged the brunet tightly with his arms. "Ta..ka...no?" "Just let me stay like this for a while." Ritsu blushed and let Takano embraced him as he leaned against his strong arms.

Takano was so scared yet relief to find out that it was just a dream. But it looked so real. He was afraid that the brunet would leave him again. Now that he won Ritsu over again, he will hold onto him dearly and never let go again.
