A/N: Because it's bittersweet.


Tomorrow
Lelouch


"Tomorrow I will die." he said that as if it was a joke. Lelouch smiled to himself, agonized at the fact, but accepting it. He looked at his companions.

Nah, they didn't find it funny.

Jeremiah was gripping his glass of orange juice a little too tightly, he was focused on his documents a little too much, and he was frowning a little too deep.

Suzaku had simply stared down at his meal, seemingly in a daze. Maybe he didn't want to eat anymore. Lelouch's bad joke was something that throws off his appetite.

C.C. silently nibbled on her pepperoni pizza, as if she heard nothing. She hugged Cheese-kun to herself and went on eating.

Lelouch resumed his meal. Maybe they didn't like the plan after all. But it's too late. Tomorrow he dies, he destroys the world and creates a new one in a matter of minutes.

So he should celebrate, really.

If only these three killjoys would realize what exactly they were moping around for.

But he couldn't blame them. After all, it wasn't he who would lose a loved-one. It was them. He knows how that feels. It's just that he's a really good actor.
