A/N: As promised, here is the second chapter. I might post the next chapter within the next half hour or so if I'm up for it. Enjoy.

Shizuma was absolutely right. After they had left the airport, renting an expensive two-seater, they sped down the main highway, admiring the wide array of nature and wild-life around them. There were just so many different kinds of trees, flowers, and animals! The deer were so beautiful. Luckily, it was the autumn season, and the weather had not turned really cold yet. Opening the window, Nagisa inhaled the mixture of scents deeply.

Shizuma grinned at Nagisa's enthusiasm, and she too, enjoyed the scenery as much as possible, for she still had to focus on driving. The two decided that it had been a long day, and would stop at a bar downtown. Smoothly parking the car, the two stepped out of the car and walked into an extremely popular club.

The place was neat and tidy for a bar, and there a bar, with a dance floor and currently unoccupied microphone. They headed first to the bar, ordering a round of drinks to start off the night. The bartender, had they been straight, was quite good-looking. Shizuma and Nagisa engaged in idle chit-chat until a familiar whisper rippled through the crowd. Immediately perking up, the two searched the crowd for a familiar face, and found, the lady from earlier in the day.

Evidently, she was already a little tipsy. She slowly, with some effort, made her way to the stage, and the throngs of dancers immediately cleared the space for her. The music had stopped, and the ever present whispering irritated Nagisa to no end.

Was she a bad singer? Was that why they were clearing the floor for her? Nagisa and Shizuma scanned the crowd, but didn't find contempt in their expression. They were apprehensive, as if expecting for something to happen.

The woman gripped the microphone, her doctor's attire switched to a half-buttoned up white blouse, accompanied by tight denim jeans, revealing a sinful amount of skin. Shizuma stared wide-eyed at the soft, silky skin, turning to Nagisa, who had made the same expression, and furrowed her brows momentarily at her lover. They would soon find out why.

The lady let her eyes sweep through the crowds, and then she began to sing, without the music to support or help her. And by God she certainly didn't need it. Her clear and alluring voice rang clearly through the bar. A pin drop could be heard in the dead silence of he club. The power voice skilfully sang the words to the song, every syllable dripping with emotion. It seemed to turn their innards to a mush. But how sad she sounded as she sang that song! After only several words, the two recognized the song. The doctor was singing the English cover a tragic love song that was originally Japanese. How did she come to know of that song? And was she singing this to somebody?

Nagisa felt the urge to run forward and embrace her again, as the song moved her to tears. Even though she didn't completely understand the song's every word, she knew the Japanese version by heart. Shizuma was holding back tears, and had to hold her lover back, lest se interrupted the beautiful song.

"It's as if cherry blossoms danced that day,

Dazzling with the light of brilliant memories

My tortured sigh, shining with

These feelings will soar to you.

'Tho' we become a memory,

Nothing compares to the warmth by your side,

This farewell is for tomorrow's sake,

It soars into the distance to find you."

The last verses of the song floated mysteriously through the air, and a solemn round of applause greeted her as she shuffled off the stage dejectedly. Nagisa immediately shot off her seat, weaving through the crowds after the doctor, who was stumbling off to the bathroom. Shizuma gave chase, and the two wrenched open the women's bathroom door to find the doctor, gripping the sink tightly, her knuckles white like paper from the strain. She slowly tore her gaze from the bottom of the sink to level a hollow gaze at the two, her eyes an abyss of murky despair.

"Do you need anything?" The angelic voice reached them, and Nagisa nearly scoffed. I think you're the one who needs something, not me.

A/N: I hope you liked it :) This song used is called S"otsugyou -Sayonara wa Ashita no Tame Ni" by Tackey & Tsubasa. It's a beautiful song, and I won't tell you when and why it's used because that would be a spoilers, but you can always try listening to it :) Thanks for reading and please drop a review!
