A/N: HOLY SHEET GUYS, I AM SO SORRYYYYY! ;A; I didn't update in a long time because I am currently in three drawing contests, I have a book report due next week(didn't even read the book), and I have had TONS of homework.
*grabs Len-Kun from Rin-Chan and uses him as a human shield* You may proceed in throwing shoes at me. T^T
After that strange day with Haku, she disappeared. Just as Neru and Luka had. It had been three weeks since Luka had been gone, two since Neru, and one since Haku vanished. Miku gulped. It seemed at this rate, people went missing once a week, and since today was the next week, Miku feared who would be next. Miku stared at the white table; she was visibly shaking, and was sweating buckets. Rin and Len looked at each other, then back at Miku. Kaito sensed that something was wrong and he sat at the table like a human being, watching Miku with concerned eyes. Len decided it was time to tell her.
"Miku."
Miku didn't even look up. On a normal day, she would have taken every chance to look at Len's lovely cerulean eyes and have a nice conversation. But not today. Today her shoulders were hunched over and shivering. It was as if she was in a trance.
"Miku. Listen to me. I know what you are afraid of. I have been fearing it, as well. Why? Because I've seen it happen before."
Miku perked her head up at that. She looked at him, wanting to know what he meant. Len couldn't even bring himself to meet Miku's eyes. Pain was filled in his eyes. Len would never admit it, but it hurt to remember the past. He finally brought his gaze up to Miku's, and their eyes locked. Miku's eyes saying I need to know. Len's saying But I don't want you to get hurt. He finally gave up to her pleading puppy dog eyes and heaved a heavy sigh.
"Alright. This is it."
Len sat at a round table with four friends encircling it. They laughed and talked about nonsense things, not fearing anything, or anyone. They seemed not to have noticed that the green haired girl, Gumi, was missing from their sights. She was just a quiet girl, no one seemed to care for her, anyway. Gakupo, Rei, Teto, Rin, and Len were having a great time. But secretly, Len worried.
The following week, Gakupo was gone. Then Teto. Finally, Rei. Rin and Len were left alone, no one to talk to. They sat against the wall, hands entwined, waiting. The next day, new people arrived. Luka, Neru, Haku, and Kaito. The twins hadn't dared to talk to any of them, out of fear that they would be left alone, yet again. And then, came Miku.
Miku placed her face into her hands and began to sob. She didn't want to disappear. She didn't want to be alone. And she was losing it. Miku stopped sobbing and started to laugh. Rin and Len stared at her, and Kaito whimpered and shrunk back. Miku banged a fist against the table, laughing like she really was a lunatic. She stopped and stared at the table again. Len looked down at the floor, his eyes filled with pity and worry. Miku didn't pay any mind to it. Rin put a soothing arm around Miku's shoulder. Miku didn't pay any mind to it. Kaito sluggishly wrapped his arms around Miku's leg, tightly holding on. Miku didn't pay any mind to it.
When Meiko came to pick up Miku, Miku hissed at her. Meiko frowned at her and grabbed Miku's pale arm. Miku held onto the table for dear life. She thought if she could stay there, she could make sure that no one would leave her. Ever. They could be together forever, and never grow old, and have the happiest days. Look at me, Miku thought. I've turned into a spazz. I vowed I would never go crazy, never go insane.
But look at me, now.
