Author's Notes: There is this one song I've been avoiding on a rather good soundtrack. Mostly, the screaming freaks me out, it sounds like the singer is getting his fingernails ripped out. Then one day while I was drawing it came on, and I was too lazy to get up and change it. It wasn't loud, so I sat through it fine.
Then I discovered the last half of it is really very pretty. The screaming stops and the guy really starts singing. I was awesome. Now I can't get enough of it.

A door opens, doesn't completely click shut and I can hear someone scuffling with a light switch.
I didn't leave the door unlocked…someone broke in…
I can't move.
"Aya?" A hand is shaking me. "Aya?! Wake up!"
Shit. It's Yohji. Goddamn return address…why did I even put it on there? What kind of idiot puts a return address on a suicide note?
Idiot! Idiot!
Even so, it's kind of funny. I manage a soft chuckle even as Yohji shakes me. I force my eyes open and stare at the blurry image of my former teammate. I wish I had my glasses on, so maybe I could see his expression, his pretty green eyes…
"Oh, thank God," he gasps. He sounds like he's been running. I hope not for me. I thought he hated me…
"I'm calling an ambulance, right now."
Something tightens in my throat. He isn't trying to save me, he can't…
My hand snaps out and grabs his wrist. I fuzzily glare up at him.
"No hospitals," I whisper, my mouth stumbling over the syllables. I hate hospitals…I can't go there…
"This is your fuckup Aya, so shut up and sit back. You're going to a hospital and you're going to live even if it kills you."
I know he's worried because he isn't making any sense.
"I thought you hated me."
Yohji stops trying to dial the phone long enough to look at me, probably glaring.
"I just want the opportunity to kick your ass."

Author's Notes: I like pecans.
To My Readers:
Lexi: I'm glad you're so excited! You shall not be disappointed! I hope…
LL: At first I was leaning that way, but then the pity side of my brain kicked in. No, it isn't going to die. But he'll come damn close. And yes, he is kind of messed up…then again, if you or I had gone through what he's gone through, how much better off would we be?
