I Will Follow You Into the Dark


Haha, my first song-fic...that I started a year ago!
Standard disclaimers apply. Yay Death Cab for Cutie.
Love of mine

Someday you will die

One day she'll be gone from me, thought Hatsuharu. He looked dazed and confused. But we'll be together forever, right?

But I'll be close behind

I'll follow you into the dark

"Rin, promise you'll never leave me. We should die together so we never have to be apart," Haru pleaded.

"Haru, that's just silly. It's far away," Rin commented.

No blinding light

Or tunnels to gates of white

Just our hands clasped so tight

Waiting for a hint of a spark

Haru and Rin sat together for a few moments in silence.

Then Rin had a thought. "Who said that I'd be the first to go?"

Haru hadn't really thought about that. He had been so worried about Rin dying he never thought that he could go first. "I don't know. You're older."

"Women usually live to be older than men."

"I knew that," he lied.

If heaven and hell decide

That they both are satisfied

Illuminate the "no's" on their vacancy signs

If there's no one beside you when your soul embarks

I'll follow you into the dark

"I don't want you to be alone. We all have to die eventually," he reminded.

"I know that, Haru. I don't think that it matters right now. You shouldn't be thinking about it."

"But it's just because I love you."

She gave him a gentle kiss.

"I know that."

You and me

Have seen everything to see

From Bangkok to Calgary

And the soles of your shoes

Are all worn down

The time for sleep is now

It's nothing to cry about

Because we'll hold each other soon

In the blackest of rooms

They sat together a while longer, holding hands in the silence, hoping their love could live forever.

Love prevails and lives on forever, even though as mortal beings we won't be alive forever. It's all apart of life; life with love etched into it.


As my New Year's resolution I want to finish this (check), The Curse I Never Had 2 (check), and The Curse I Never Had: Rewrite (NOT check). So...look forward to that AND a multi-chapter Haru x Rin story. Oh my!

And free invisible plushies! (grab as many as you'd like!)

Much love, Sanrio-chan
