A Light To Follow

by Inmate XIV

They were both nothings. His heart was fake, she didn't have one at all. It wouldn't take them long to fall for each other. A drabble for each letter. Starting with A, going to Z. Repliku/Namine

2. B Is For Beat

B is for Beat

The sound she hears when her head rests on his chest. He sleeps soundly, peacefully, but she's kept up with nightmares, and she doesn't want to bother him. His Heart is artificial, fake, but it still beats the same way she would bet Riku's does.

She puts a hand to her chest, checking to see if she has a Heartbeat of her own. There is nothing, absolutely nothing. It's completely silent. She is a hollow being. She would rather have a fake Heart than no Heart at all.

She's sure Ayumu would disagree.

Repliku would probably rather have no Heart than have a fake one.

13NeverForget14 : Yeah. ^^ Ayumu is Japanese for 'walk in a dream' or 'walk in a vision', which I think fits him, since when he thinks he's Riku, it's not reality. Oh, I don't know. I'm glad you like it!
