It was gettin' harder and harder to stand all that. She couldn't do it anymore.
Her face was already swollen and her tears started to hurt. Deeply.
"Huh...? Why...?"
Suffering.
"Just, don't worry okay? Everything will be fine, and you'll make it" She spoke between hiccups, desperately tryin' to help him stand. I assure you, she didn't believe it herself.
He fell on his knees, just as she did, consequently.
"I am so sorry..." He lowered the tone of his voice. "...but..."
Zero stared at her once more, asking God for him to remember that sweet, precious face, hopefully for long time after.
...Precious? "...I won't
He, then, rested his head on her shoulder, keeping his eyelids half open, with great effort.
Did not want everything to end. He was fighting hard against the beautiful fact of dying.
His voice was almost gone, but he still had a little of it to whisper his last comforting words in her ear:
"I will watch you from up there, Yuuki..." Smiled.
She left out several tears, and gently fondled Zero's head, just how she used to do 4 years ago: "Okay."
His conscience silently faded away, sleeping for the eternity on his lover's stained with red arms.
He died dreaming, wearing a corpse perfume.

"You are the reason I decided to live on."
