A/N:

Okay, I had an epiphany and had to write this down before I forgot about it.

CHAPTER SET: None; AU

DISCLAIMER: I don't own What Happened To Us by Hoobastank.

A steady beat was set be the drummer, speeding up slightly then slowing down. Axel tapped the set lightly with the sticks, setting up the back-beat. Demyx strummed the Sitar roughly, getting the song going.

"I thought it was too good to be true,

I found somebody who understands me.

Someone who would help me to get through,

And fill an emptiness I had inside me."

Saïx sung to the beat of the song, his deep voice echoing over the auditorium. He flipped his blue hair over his shoulder.

"But you kept inside, and I just denied,

Some things that we should have both said…

I knew it was too good to be true,

'Cause I'm the only one who understands me..."

The beat picked up, and all of the instrumentalists played an intense beat. Luxord violently pounded notes on his guitar, and Demyx followed suit, with Axel thrashing on the drums. Saïx took a breath, searching the crowd for the center of this song.

"What happened to us?

We used to be so perfect, now we're lost and lonely.

What happened to us?

And deep inside I wonder, did I lose my only?"

When he still didn't spot Yukia in the crowd, he swore his heart broke.

Yukia listened to the radio broadcast of Saïx and his band members, and struggled against the current traffic jam on Destiny Islands, mostly caused by the concert. Since they never got many visitors, being an island and all, this was like seeing a Heartless for the first time.

"Remember they thought we were too young,

To really know what it takes to make it.

But we had survived off what we have done,

So we could show them all that they're mistaken."

Yukia gripped the wheel tighter as the light turned red above her. She tapped her fingers to the beat of the song, which was slower than the chorus. She eagerly waited as people got out of their cars on the other side of the road, and she saw the light turn green. She never drove so fast in her life.

"But who could have known, the lies that would grow,

Until we could see right through them.

Remember they knew we were too young,

We still don't know what it takes to make it..."

She wasn't looking at which side of the road she was driving on, and Yukia came to a bone-breaking halt, hitting two oncoming drivers.

"What happened to us?

We used to be so perfect, now we're lost and lonely.

What happened to us?

And deep inside I wonder, did I lose my only one?"

Saïx nodded his head to the beat, no longer searching the crowd for the girl whom he was sure to be there.

"We could have made it work, we could have found a way.

We should of have done our best to see another day.

But we kept it all inside until it was too late,

And now we're both alone, the consequence we pay…

For throwing it all away, for throwing it all away..."

The radio still played in the crashed car, police cars swarming around the three crashed vehicles, the two victims being carried away in an ambulance with minor scratches. Yukia's head was smashed in from the steering wheel, and the airbags didn't react to the crash. Blood ran all over the interior of the car, and began to seep out the doors. The nurses had carried what they could of her body out of the car and onto a stretcher, rolling her over to the ambulance.

"What happened to us?

We used to be so perfect, now we're lost and lonely

What happened to us?

And deep inside I wonder, did I lose my only?"

Saïx had a rapid sinking feeling in the bottom of his gut, and thrashed his head to the beat of the song, finishing it off.

"What happened to us?

What happened to us?

What happened to us?

What happened to us?"

The concert ended, and he grabbed his cell phone from backstage. As he was about to call Yukia's cell, his ringer went off. The number was the one for the local police, and he picked up immediately.

"Hello? Is everything okay?" his voice was laced with worry, and the other members of the band came walking in. "…No, I… of course, I… I understand. I'll be there immediately."

As he hung up, he grabbed his jacket.

"Hey, where ya goin, Saïx? We have another show in Twilight town soon." Demyx said, packing up his Sitar.

"Yukia's been in a car accident on her way here.'

"What?!" they all said in unison, making shocked faces.

Saïx stopped by the back door. "They said… she was dead."

They were all silent as they heard Saïx's motorcycle rev up, leaving them in their stunned silence.

[TimeSkip: Three Days]

Saïx and his friends were standing be the coffin of Yukia, looking at her corpse and saying their goodbyes. But she's already gone, he thought. It doesn't matter what you say now.

He was the last one up to the coffin, and looked at her closed eyes and peaceful smile, stitches all across her face, scarring her, making her ugly. Saïx gently pushed her bangs out of her face, tracing the new stitches with his thumb. "You weren't meant to die." He leaned into the coffin placing a kiss on the dead girl's lips, and then pulled away.

"See you in hell." He walked away, and he could have sworn he heard a "You too," from the girl's lips, her voice ghosting his ears.

A/N:

Why do all my Saïx/Yukia fics end with one or both of them dead? I'm not all too sure myself.
