A/N: Okay, in this chapter, I finally reveal what's in the box! I know you've been waiting for that Aisu-dazs, and thank you for being so patient!
l3Len: Oh yes he can die! It's MY fanfiction, and you'll have to wait and see!
Aisu-dazs: Haha, I'm glad you want to see my update! ^_^
MissAudacious13: I know! Writing it makes me feel feelings to ~(T^T)~
DuFrancis: I may kill him, I may not... Oh hon hon~!
There may be a few more chapters after this, depends on if I kill Len or not.
(Kaito's P. O. V.)
You know that feeling you get when someone you love is in pain and you can't do anything?
Imagine watching them die right in front of you and you can't do anything.
I struggled against Miku and Luka's grips as I looked at the monitor.
Flatline.
"Shock him again!" I cringed as Len convulsed under the electricity, but that was all the motion his limp body gave.
"That's it. I'm calling time of death at-"
"Wait!" I saw the faint rise and fall of Len's chest. The monitors couldn't pick it up, but I could.
Len was still alive.
"He's right. Get him hooked up to some O2, and a shot of epinephren."
If it wasn't for Luka and Miku's death grip, I would've fallen.
That was the second time in a week that I'd almost lost him.
"Kaito, c-can we talk?" A soft voice spoke up behind me.
Turning around, I saw it was Rin, and that she'd been crying.
"Sure. What's wrong?" I asked, looking down at her red-rimmed aqua eyes.
"I-It's about Len." My breath caught in my throat.
"H-He's been like this for a month now, Kaito. And I love him just as much as you do. Which is why I think it would be kinder..." Rin started sobbing mid-sentence, but kept going. "T-To let go." My eyes widened a bit.
Although I knew Rin was right, a part of me wanted to keep him here as long as possible.
"E-Even if he wakes up now, h-he'll b-be braindead, Kaito. H-He shouldn't suffer like this anymore." She put a hand on my shoulder, and at that point I realized I was crying.
Len was at best a touch-and-go situtation: One minute his heart would be beating, the next, he was gone. It wasn't fair to put him through that much pain and suffering.
I nodded, trying to fight back tears, but I didn't know why.
"I-I know it's hard, but he'd be happier this way, Kaito." It wouldn't just be hard on me. Rin would lose a brother, Luka, Miku, Gakupo, and Meiko, a best friend, and me, the person I cared about the most.
"C-Can I have some time alone?" Rin nodded and lead Miku and Luka away.
"T-This will probably be the last time I get to talk to you, so, I should say what I need to." I sighed, looking up at Len, toying with the box in my pocket.
"T-There's s-something I-I've been wanting to do for a while now, Len." My hands were shaking as I pulled out the small box, opening it to look at the simple, silver band I had gotten so many months ago.
Silently, I slipped it onto Len's cold, pale finger, smiling slightly.
"I-I'm gonna miss you, w-we all will." I felt my eyes burning as I felt sadness rise within me.
With tears streaming down my face, I placed a gentle kiss on Len's temple.
"I guess this is goodbye." I whispered, wiping my eyes on my sleeve.
"I love you, Len Kagamine." I left the room, not wanting to cry anymore, but glad I finally did it.
"Kaito..." Rin hugs me, crying into my shirt.
"I-I know it'll hurt, b-but like you said, i-it's better this way." I said, holding her shoulder. I needed something to keep me stable emotionally, not physically, but holding onto Rin like this would have to work for now.
"I-I'll go talk to the doctor." Rin nodded, leaning her head on Miku's shoulder, still crying.
"Yes, is there something I can help you with?" A nurse smiles.
"Yes. I-I'd like to request that Len Kagamine be taken off life support."
"You're sure about this?" She asked, raising an eyebrow. "I don't mean to pry, but you and that boy are really close. Are you really ready for this?" I nodded, my breath still shaky.
The nurse smiled sadly and handed me a form. "I just need you to sign this, and we can arrange for it in about 15 minutes." I nodded reading over the form, and signing my name at the bottom.
I'm so, so sorry, Len. But it's better this way. I thought, watching the nurse walk away.
"You did the right thing, Kaito." Miku said, smiling sadly.
"I-I know." Even if I'll never get to see him smile, hear him laugh, or hold his hand again, he'll be better off this way. I thought.
I watched the whole time as they unplugged and removed Len's breathing tube.
"He should pass peacefully within the hour." The nurse smiled sadly at us with a hand on my shoulder.
"L-Len wanted you to read this." Rin handed me a letter.
Dear Kaito, If you're reading this, then somehow, I'm going to die soon. But either way, I want you to know that I have no regrets before I die. Especially not you, Kaito. I don't want any of you crying over me. If you cry, then that means I did something wrong. No more tears. Just smile, okay? Love, Len.
She finishes the vows but the beeps are getting too slow
His voice is almost too low
As he says, I love you forever, forever and always
Please just remember even if I'm not there
I'll always love you, forever and always
