Characters: Watanuki Kimihiro, Doumeki Shizuka, Ichihara Yuuko

Summary: When you have someone close to you, you think that there is no such thing as death for them.

Disclaimer: I do not own xxxHolic nor do I own the challenges. They belong to CLAMP and the Hitszen100 community on LJ respectively.

A/N: A more depressive one. I wanted to do one on Watanuki's and Yuuko's bond. They seem to be really close, and Watanuki apparently does worry about her, and cares for her...in the non-romantic sense.

Challenge: #058-Power


Ever since Yuuko had...moved on (he couldn't bring himself to say it), he had spent most of his time in this room. Now it seemed so empty without the smoke, sake bottles and the ever ecstatic witch.

At first, Watanuki hated Yuuko for leaving him with everything.

Her shop.

Her clients.

Her power.

How did she expect him to live up to her?!

She had also left him Doumeki. He never understood why but it turned out that Yuuko was right. He really did need him.

"Oi."

With one last glance at the duvet, he followed Doumeki out the door.


A/N: It's been a while. A really long while. Anyway, I was sifting through my lj and found one drabble that I didn't have here only to find that I had uploaded this without posting.

The little greenish button is calling to you!xD
