AU ~ Alone
Tsukasa ran down the street, crying as he entered Dream Island's junkyard. He leaned against the fence, whimpering softly.
"Subaru..." The greenette whispered, his voice choked with sobs.
"I can't believe you... You're terrible...!" The green haired boy spoke aloud. It seemed as though he was talking to himself, however, he was not. "Why... Why would you do that?!"
Because something had to be done since you were taking forever to make a move. I did you a favor and just made it for you.
The voice in his head responded to him, that voice being Hikaru.
"But I never asked you to! You... You shouldn't have done that...!" The greenette was distraught.
Soooorry! I didn't know you were okay with the way things were going! Are you telling me you preferred it that way? Not being able to tell Subaru how you feel?!
The green haired boy shook his head.
"At least I was happier then! I would have been fine keeping everything the same... If I knew how today was going to turn out..."
Tsukasa spotted a mirror on the ground, frowning at his tear stained face. "Now how am I supposed to face Subaru after all of this...?"
Ugh, there's something wrong with Subaru... You threw yourself at him and he wouldn't even acknowledge you!
The green haired boy frowned softly, not responding to the alter.
Ya' know ... I totally thought everything would go so well for you today Tsukasa... I kept telling myself, Tsukasa deserves this, he deserves happiness... He deserves to fall in love... Guess I was wrong.
At this, Tsukasa paused.
"Happiness...?" He questioned Hikaru.
OF COURSE! I mean, you really are in love with Subaru, aren't you?! So if you told him that, maybe it would lead him to loving you...!
"Well... Yes... But..." The lighter half began to speak, but was cut off.
Tsukasa. Don't you want to find happiness?
The greenette stared at the mirror, unsure of how to respond. Then, he smiled weakly.
"It's... It's okay. Really. Because... I don't want any happiness if it means I have to be selfish."
Tsukasa! ...Just say it... Is it because of me?
The lighter half's eyes widened.
"No..! No, it's not... Not at all... Please don't think th-"
Don't lie! You can't hide anything from me! You never could... Don't forget that I am a part of you... And... I know how you feel!
"..." The greenette slowly backed away, sitting down on an old, worn bed nearby.
How do you think that makes me feel...? Knowing you can never be happy personally... Because you're concerned about my 'happiness'...
Tsukasa was silent, unsure of how to respond.
Maybe... It's time I found happiness on my own... If... If you really care about me, Tsukasa...
You'll go find happiness for yourself.
Tsukasa's eyes widened, looking to one of the old, stand up mirrors.
"Does that mean you'll-?"
...Heh. Yeah, I'm afraid so... Everytime I've come out, I've caused so much trouble for you, Tsukasa... So... So I'll just go away... And never bother you again.
"Hikaru...! Please don't go!" He stood up quickly.
Go find your happiness.
"Wait! Don't go! Stay here! Don't... Leave... Don't go away! Please just... Stay with me..." The lighter half of the greenette was crying again.
I'll always love you, Tsukasa.
"..." The green haired boy dropped to the floor, hugging himself. His tears dripped from his eyes, staring down.
He was alone, now. Not even Hikaru would be here for him, anymore...
