Kill this thirst which enslaves body

and transforms into pleasure

what is almost pain.

Requiem II

"I'll keep away from you forever."

Eternally.

I always imagined my world around him even as enemies. I was able to accept his hatred. It was a way to be by his side after all.

Forever.

But definitely I was not able to live with his absence. I wasn't prepared for the end.

- No. Never. I simply could not.

It was all I could mutter. When I realized, Prefect was holding me. Those arms were the only ones who understood what I was feeling.

- Let's go to another hall, Yuuki. You need to calm down.

I don't know how I walked to that place. Suddenly, everything seemed so empty. The truth is that I was used to having Zero next to me even as an enemy. The eternity without him... That reality, now, was stuck in my soul but I didn't want that fate. It's true. Sometimes, I thought about it. I knew that Zero would die. I thought about it. But this was something so abstract, so intangible in my thoughts. It was the emptiness I felt that brought desolation.

The absence.

The loss.

"An eternity of regret..."

This feeling that Kaname had for a very long time belongs to me now.

And so I recognized that nostalgic scent.

I could feel he was coming. He was panting, because he was late, as usual. Some buttons of his shirt weren't closed and his tie was a bit untidy. He was disconcerting and elegant at the same time. He walked confidently. He seemed to know just where his place was. Zero sat down and opened a bottle of pills. He gulped all of them. All the vampires who were in the hall looked at each other embarrassed. However, hunters continued to make their services and weren't bothered with that fact. That demonstrated it was a routine thing.

He drank the whole pills. Thirst. A thirst that won't never be quenched…

"It´s my fault, I abandoned him. I left Zero feeling so lonely."

When the reunion was finished I waited for hunters and vampires to clear the hall. I wanted to have a talk with him. I was so scared. His death could be something so frightening...Then I pulled him into the room. I wanted to do something. So, my body embraced Zero as if I was trying to hold his life.

- Drink my blood. I´ll give every drop for you. I´ll always do it for you.

-Really?

Although his voice was soft I could notice a certain annoyed tone.
