Shindou's P.O.V.
I broke up with Tsurugi yesterday.
Things didn't really work out between us. Couples when they broke up, as I see, one of them must have drowned in the sea of tears. But this? Neither one of us was showing a sign of sadness. Hell with the sadness, there's isn't even a bit feeling of love in our relationship. Kyousuke was an affectionate, yes, but seriously, I don't feel his love, even when he confessed to me.
But truthfully, I was crushed.
He didn't even budge, he just stared at me lifelessly when I told him there's something wrong with us. With me being all emotional, telling him things.
"I love you. Don't you love me back?"
"We're together right?"
"What's wrong with you?"
And then there's him just straightly stared at me and saying hurtful things, without looking at me.
"If you don't like it, let's just end it here."
Maybe he never liked me.
How stupid am I.

Tsurugi's P.O.V.
I walked my way to the hospital while staring at the sky. It's full of clouds, but the sun's still shining bright. The weather's amazingly warm, making me longing for the hospitals nice cold air.
Sighing, I realized that I had arrived. You might be wondering why I'm still going to the hospital that Nii-san was already discharged from the place.
I stared at a certain window. A certain window that answers the question.
Since Tenma got in the accident, Nii-san visits him almost every day, due to the doctor said he needs to be in the hospital much longer due to the wounds he got when he tried to escape the accident, seems he got him self wounded by the building's ruins. Taking care of the boy, keeping him company,
While he himself didn't know who is Nii-san.
"Who is this Kyousuke you're talking about?"
How does that question ached my heart so much. I broke up with Shindou yesterday, and remembering the statement, it makes me feel so alone.
Dragging my self to the brunette's room, I saw there's many children playing around, bringin balloons to the hospital's park.
I wonder if there is some kind of event?
Normal P.O.V.
"Tenma-kun, you have to go outside now!"
The called brunette turned to see who talked to him. He stared at him, "Why, Yuchi-san? Is there something going on now? I see many people at the park,"
"Today is children's day!" Yuuichi said happily. The boy had been calling him Yuchi, due to his —maybe temporary— amnesia, "The hospital's spreading balloons and papers to make wish for!"
"Make wish?" Tenma tilted his head. The navy haired teen in front of him nodded excitedly and took his hands, "Come one, let's go downstairs now!"
"Eh?" And the next thing happened, Tenma was already dragged by Yuuichi to the park.
Shindou stared at his window room lifelessly, feeling deep in blue. He exhaled a very disturbing breath, like his soul was going to be out in no time. Truth, he didn't even liked the ex-SEED before, but since his confession, he started to feel something inside him fluttered. Even though his confession wasn't even romantic. But this is the truth, he liked him.
"Shindou-sama, Kirino-san is here to meet you," a maid knocked at his door. Still staring at the window, he answered the knock, "Let him in,"
The door was opened, revealing a pink haired boy, who had his azure eyes locked at the sorrowful maestro, "Shindou, are you okay?"
Nodding, he finally turned his eyes to the defender, "Yes, I am alright," he sighed again, "Why did you come here, Kirino?"
"I'm worried about you, Shindou," Kirino walked closer to his friend, who is now reaching for his piano, "You've been depressed like this since you broke up with Tsurugi. It makes me sad," stroking the piano's black slick lid, he looked deeply at Shindou, "It makes the whole team sad,"
The brown haired maestro slowly clicked his fingers to the piano's keys, making a beautiful, yet depressing melody, "I don't know what should I do again, Kirino," a single streak of tear came out from his eyes, "I miss him so bad,"
Silence. There was a silence between the captain and the defender, the sound of the piano being played filled over the room. "Why can't you just forget that jerk and move on?"
Shindou's head shot up when he heard the pink defender's statement, pushing the piano's keys hardly, "He's not a jerk, Kirino...!"
"Then why did he treated you like that?" Kirino clenched his fist tightly, "He's a total jerk, Shindou! He confessed to you but didn't even treat you like you're his boyfriend! He should be even grateful that you accepted him!"
Kirino turned to his back, "Are you even happy being in a pitiful relationship like that?" the pinkeye can be heard sighed, "Why do you even like him,"
"Because he is he, Kirino," Shindou started to play his piano again, making a melody much more depressing than before, it's as if the piano is crying, "I like him because he is he. He's not perfect, but I like it. I don't want someone like him, I want him,"
"Then why don't you find someone much better?"
"Like who? There's no one—," Cutting the maestro's words, Kirino stared at him piercingly, right into his maroonish brown eyes,
"Like me,"
Tenma stared at the sky that is now filled with balloons. He is himself holding a balloon, in the colour of blue, spesifically. He is currently waiting for Yuuichi, whonis taking a piece of paper and a marker for him.
"Here you go, Tenma-kun!" the navy haired teen said happily to the brunette, giving him both the paper and the marker, "Now write a wish! Then, I will tie it you balloon and we'll let it fly! They say if your will on the wish is strong enough, it will come true!"
The sick brunette stared at the paper hollowly, "I don't really... Have... A wish...,"
Yuuichi patted his shoulder, "Oh, come one! You must have one. How about you think about it while I talk to the nurse, okay?"
Nodding, the brunette stared his paper again while the navy teen went to the purple haired nurse that was taking care of some children. He wondered what would he wished for? Maybe he'll wish for his health? Or his family? Or the peoples that was hurt by the accident that got him in the hospital?
Or would he wish for his orange haired friend to be back at his side?
He shook his head. No, dead peoples can't be brought back to life. It's just the same as disturbing their long peaceful sleep.
Then a thought crossed his mind and he started scribbling the paper. Yuuichi saw this and the teen got closer to the brunette, "So have you decided what are wishing for?"
The brunette nodded, and Yuuichi took the paper from his hands, tying it to the balloon's thin string, "Do you want to release it now?"
Tenma nodded while mouthing a 'yes', and finally the navy teen let the balloon's string out from his hands, making the blue thing floated slowly to the sky. Yuuichi turns his stare to the staring brunette, "So what did you wish for, Tenma-kun?"
Without a single emotion came out from his face, Tenma spoke,
"That's a secret."
But it wasn't even a wish.
Both of them didn't know, that there was single navy haired boy that was watching them silently from the shades of the tree. H
earing the brunette's statement, he decided to catch the balloon himself.
"Dear God,
Who is Tsurugi Kyousuke?"
Finally discharged from the hospital, Tenma slowly entered his classroom, with his classmates asking if he is okay and they are sad for Taiyou's death. He just responded all of it with a simple nod, making his way to his chair. He sat there lifelessly, placing his head buried under his arms on the table. He sighed while he stared at the window beside him,
There he is now again, all alone.
He stared at the chair beside him. A vase with black roses was placed on the table. A sign of someone's death.
The brunette stared at it and wondered, why should the put black roses in the vase? Why can't it be sunflowers? They are bright as the sun, just like Taiyou.
Why did he just realized his feelings now, after Taiyou was gone?
And suddenly tears began to flow on his expressionless face.
Tsurugi didn't catch the balloon in the end. The blue floating thing ended up being out from his range. He exhaled disappointedly. He felt that he began to miss the brunette more, since he broke up with Shindou. He heard that the maestro was clinging on Kirino, and he didn't even budge at the rumor. Yes, he do feel a little angry, that Shindou got his replacement easily, like he never loved him before. But other than that, he didn't care.
He wants Tenma.
But how? The boy didn't even recognize him anymore—
"Tsurugi Kyousuke, are you listening to me?"
—unless he introduced himself over. Yes, he could just start it all over! Tenma doesn't remember who he was, right? He doesn't remember all the sorrow he causes to the boy right?
This is his chance! To be with Tenma again!
"I'm sorry sir! I think my stomach feels dizzy! I should go home now, bye!"
"Wait the second, you can't do that—,"
Too late, the navy haired boy has gone from the classroom, leaving the whole class staring at him and wondering if stomachs can get dizzy.
The schools finally out, and Tenma boredly took his bag, walking out from the classroom and headed downstairs. Turning left from the schools entrance, he found someone that catches his eyes. He had navy hair and goldenish brown orbs. He looks somehow familiar and looks like he's waiting for someone. Realizing that he had been stared by the brunette, he turned and waved his hand, "Hi, Tenma!"
Tilting his head in confusion, he said to the guy, "Who are you?"
"Oh, I haven't introduced myself," he smiled sweetly to the brunette, "I'm Tsurugi Kyousuke! I'm Yuuichi-nii's younger brother."
"Ah," Tenma finally understands, but still keeping his straight face, "Yuchi-san's Kyousuke. He told me about you. What are you doing here?"
"Yuuichi-nii wants me to check on you, since he's a little busy with his college," Tsurugi smiled to the boy, resulting a nod from the brunette. Truth, this is wasn't like him. Tsurugi never liked having a happy-go-lucky like personality, he wasn't a type of guy who would be all cheerful and bright.
But then again, he wouldn't want to make a bad impression on the brunette, right?
And there goes Tenma's first meeting with the (new) Tsurugi.
"Nee, Tsurugi-kun,"
"Yes, Tenma?"
Since that day, Tsurugi has been taken care the boy, accompanied him all time, playing soccer together, playing piano together, eating ice-creams together,
Like the old times. Like in their childhood. Like when they were always together.
It has been 6 months. And Tsurugi liked it that way.
"Promise me, you will be always be with me?"
Tsurugi stopped on his tracks when he heard the question.
Tenma who was confused on the sudden stop, tilted his head. He felt that his hand was gripped tightly by the taller boy. "Tsurugi-kun?"
The streets was full of people, and they were right in the middle of it. People walked back and forth from them. Leaving them in their own world.
"By the way, Tsurugi-kun how did you and Yuchi-san know me?" the brunette stared at the navy haired boy, "I don't really recall that I have met you two before."
Suddenly Tsurugi turned his back, staring at the brunette's deep grayish blue eyes. He opened his mouth, mouthing a sorry at first,
And between the chattering voices of the crowd, he began to started to tell him, the truth.
From the first time they met. How did he avoided the brunette,
How did Tenma became heartless.
The owner of the widening grayish blue eyes began to remember those events, those lone wolf stepped back from the navy haired boy, making him dropped his chocolate flavored ice-cream.
"But I'm really sorry, Tenma! I promise you I will never do that again! I-I will never leave you again! Please don't hate me Tenma...," Tsurugi pleaded to the shorter boy as he get closer to him.
But the brunette just keep stepping back from him. "You, you lied to me," Tenma clutched his chest tightly, "I... I...,"
Then suddenly everyone started staring at the skies with mouths open, fright and scared portrayed perfectly on their face.
"That piano is falling!"
Tenma turned his gaze in the direction on what are peoples pointing. They were not lying. There's a piano falling from a construction hook. And it's falling in Tsurugi's direction.
"Please, Tenma,"
He was confused. This was the boy who had made him lonely, hurt, lost, and heartless. He made him alone. He was the reason all of the events happens. If he didn't date Shindou, he wouldn't be hurt. If didn't he didn't get hurt, he wouldn't meet Taiyou. If he wouldn't meet Taiyou, the orange haired boy wouldn't die, and left him alone again.
If this boy didn't even exist in his life, he wouldn't even feel and experience all of those terrible events.
But then again,
Does he has the heart to leave him be, dead by a falling piano?
"I...," closing his eyes, he finally pulled the navy haired boy close to him and whispered at his ear. Then throwing him out of the way, leaving him crashed with the piano.
No, he doesn't.
Because maybe he wasn't that heartless to the boy.
"... love you."
And the last thing he heard under the piano was Tsurugi's hysterical scream.
Yuuichi walked to a certain room's door. He was finally in the hospital again for a long time. And this time he wasn't visiting a certain brunette anymore.
"Kyousuke, are you in there? Can I come in?"
No answer from the patient. He decided to come in,
And he found his brother was sitting at the opened window's edge.
"What are you doing there, Kyousuke?" he walked closer to the younger boy, "You could fall you know—,"
Suddenly a feel of fear of his brother wanting to commit suicide shivered him.
"Nii-san,"
Hearing that he was called, Yuuichi shot up his head, opening his mouth to get his brother down from the window.
But the younger Tsurugi just stood up, standing on the window's edge.
"Sayonara,"
And then Yuuichi's screams filled the room, backgrounding Tsurugi's suicide fall from the height of level 10.
"KYOUSUKE!"
End.
Oh look, I killed them all... Let's kill myself too now.

And orz you guys might be wondering why I update things so slowly, remembering I'm on a holiday and I've got nothing to do.
Okay, here it goes.
I... Kinda... Broke my hand?
No, it's not like it's shattered or broke a bone or two it's just I carelessly hurt my hand and it's somehow painful. Thankfully it's not that painful anymore, but it still let's out some pain when I tried to type in a long time or draw or tried to crack it, so the writing's been really going slowly from how I use to and you know the rest.
Once again I thank you all for your support and I'm sorry if this is not what you expected! Thank you guys, read and review!
