I spent my nights running and my days sleeping...
Daylight was something drinking my masters blood had let me bear but I had gotten so pale over the years I knew no excuse would be passable for me being out in daytime...
So I used it for sleeping instead...
But my dreams were disturbed by him...
Roxas...
I'd reach out to touch him and then his brown haired twin would take his place...
Reaching out for me and I'd ignore him and walk away...
I felt his curiousity, I felt his sadness for me...
Even the pleasure he had felt still ran through my mind and caused sensations to run through my face arms and fingertips.
I'll be the first to admit I missed him, his voice was comforting, but I felt I needed him too much.
I feared that he would suffer the same fate as Roxas, there was no one I knew of after me, but our kind were everywhere...
And not all shared my like of humans...

"Sora what the hell!"
"I told you... I let him..."
"You went back!"
"And he did nothing."
"That's not the point we don't know who he is or where he came from!"
"You don't know who he is or where he came from... I do."
"No you don't and stop acting like you've known him forever!"
"One drop of blood..."
"W-What?"
"One drop can show you more than words ever could, now I'm going to find him... You can come, or you can stay here."
"You didn't..."
The next sound was the door closing and the end of their friendship as Sora knew it.
/I don't need her... She would have never loved me anyway./

I could feel him...
He may have been miles away but I could feel his desperation his utter despair...
And how it broke my heart to feel that.
I wanted to shout out to him, I wanted to tell him that he'd be okay...
I wanted to be his saviour...
But I knew I could do no such thing...

"I know you're there... I know you can feel this."
His voice whispered on the wind and instantly I knew he was talking to me...
"So why don't you come? Why don't you care?"
In my minds eye I could see him clearly sitting throwing pebbles into the lake...
"I don't know where I am... I don't know how far I've come... I don't know how much of this I can take... One minute I didn't know you... The next I've known you for longer than I've lived... I remember things that never happened between you and I... But they come back to me as clear as if they'd happened yesterday... And I know they did..."
My resistance was freefalling into nothingness...
"I don't know if I'm going insane..."
Fading into the blackness...
"I don't even know who I am anymore..."
From where it came...

I don't remember how I got there...
The method of travel or the journey...
Only that within moments of his plea...
He was in front of me his head rested against his knees in front of a large lake he was throwing stones and they splashed one by one as he threw them...
I wanted nothing but this moment to be near him and watch him and not interfere...
I wished with all my heart I could satisfy my need for him with just that and walk away and sigh and note my heartbreak as a loss and move on...
He'd get married and have children and grow old and die and I'd look upon his grave and weep...
A real life and a real death...
But as we all know, fairytales are not real...

I walked up and sat beside him not a word, barely a sound.
He didn't need to look at me, I already knew what he was thinking...
"I just don't understand... I want to be..."
My fingers pressed his lips, if I wanted to leave I couldn't hear him speak those words...
Standing up I had every intention of leaving him there and never looking back, I could see it all playing out, he'd marry that auburn haired girl...
"axel..."
They'd have a big wedding...
"Axel!"
I might watch in on it from a high window...
"AXEL!"
They'd have three kids...
Everyone of them would have his eyes...
"I want to be with you..."
Those beautiful blue eyes.
"I WANT TO BE WITH YOU!"
But that would never be...
Because I turned around...
"Axel..."
And when his lips met mine...
I knew I'd never be able to let him go.
And there by the lake...
He joined the leagues of the undead...
