Distance
I closed my eyes and slept a dreamless slumber.
I hear the sirens rushing out in the city to capture the legendary thief.
My body tensed up as I smelled that familiar scent; it's killing me.
I turned away from the window and bit my lip hard, as warm tears fell down my face.
I could feel his eyes on me, watching my every breath. I shut my eyes tighter.
I miss you too…
I shouldn't have gone here.
I should've stayed at home.
I shouldn't have interfered in the situation.
I should've listened to my father.
Then, I shouldn't have seen the man I love the most, wearing the white suit with his white hat in hand and his monocle lying in the floor. Its glass broken and cracked, the same as with my heart.
"W-w-why? H-h-how?"
This is the right thing to do.
I can't be with the man I hate the most.
I'm doing what is right.
I stare into those indigo pools and walk away.
Life's a gamble and sometimes you just got to settle for more.
"Saguru-kun, finally you're here!"
I can't stay with sapphires forever, and now I have gold.
I glanced back and admire you one last time.
"Aoko-kun, you ready?"
But still, you'll always have a special place in my heart; you're a great part of it.
"Yeah."
I don't want to do this anymore.
I don't want to be the reason why.
Every time I walk out the door, I see him die a little more inside.
I don't want to hurt him anymore.
"I'm tried… I'm sick of this… I want to die…"
I felt my heart shatter at his words.
I stood up and once again left him alone dying.
I'm sorry…
"Hey are you alright?"
I looked at him with worried eyes, ever since our trip had started his face was pale.
"Hey…"
He ignored me as if I was just a rock.
I stared at him, he was a mess.
"Earth to Kai-Kuroba."
I couldn't say his name, it's like I don't have the right anymore.
He looked at me in the eye.
"I asked if you were alright."
He had his mask on, nut he couldn't hide the truth in his eyes.
Tired. Sadness. Anger. Pain. Lots and lots of pain.
He suddenly looked away and gave me a firm nod.
I'll be here. Always.
"Please…"
"I'm sorry…"
I can't.
You betrayed me, if I listen I don't know if I'll believe or not.
I'm scared.
I stared at the silver moon admiring its natural beauty.
I hugged myself as a gush of wind pass by.
I sighed and decided to go to sleep, but something caught my eye.
There on my balcony door, a beautiful white rose lay, shining in the moonlight.
I picked it up and touched its soft petals. I grabbed the note tied to it and smiled.
"Meet me tomorrow at the clock tower at 11. I'll be waiting."
The first time I saw him again after ten years, he sure changed a lot.
"Kuroba-kun!"
Form the happy-go-lucky boy, to the handsome and mature man.
"So you're engaged?"
I looked at the ring in my finger. I smiled and felt my heart skipped a beat.
"Yeah, Saguru-kun proposed to me. He even slipped on his foot as he knelt down."
I faced him and smiled.
"I'm happy for you."
I quickly grabbed something from my bag and offer it to him.
"You're invited; I really hope you would come."
I smiled at the mirror and straightened out my gown.
Today's the day.
I can't help the smile on my face as I entered the church, walked won the isle, and as I said my vows.
Though there is only one presence that I can feel.
I feel his eyes on me right from the very start.
And here again I stand in front of this huge clock tower.
I smiled as I reminisced, all the good and bad memories.
I closed my eyes and hugged myself, enjoying the scenes playing through my head.
My eyes opened as I felt a rain drop on my cheek. I looked up to see forming grey clouds overtaking the blue sky.
I sighed happily as I felt someone hugged me from behind.
"Let's get going Aoko-kun before it starts to rain."
"Yeah."
Mwahahahahaha. I just imagined it again. The song suddenly played next on my playlist while I was reading this. (yes, I read my own stories :P) Then this is the result.
This is about Aoko's side and how she lived her life.
I know I'm cruel. Don't kill me. T.T
