Me: OH TEH NOES! D: The Epilogue finally arrives! And double oh noes! I'm all jitterey from seeing two giant spiders in my driveway! O_O' Creepy...

Kyoya: *looks up from his laptop* They're just spiders. They're completely harmless.

Me: HARMLESS! THEY WERE BIG! AND YELLOW! AND HAD BLACK TIPS ON THEIR FEET! THEY'RE UGLY AND SCAREY!

Kyoya: *gives a bored look and sees a spider like the one I saw* *picks up a book and smacks it* There. See?

Me: *faints*

Honey: Ana-chan! D:

Kyoya: Here's your epilogue...


Hikaru painted tiredlessly. His tears dripped from the tip of his nose and mixed with his paints. He painted endlessly. His fingers shook with sorrow. Setting down his brush and paint can, he looked at the portrait. He bit his lip as he looked at the two boys in the painting. Both looked identical. One held the other, kissing the neck of his twin. The other boy had a look of bliss, his neck exposed to the other. The sight made Hikaru smile, 'Koaru... Kaoru and I... Together... Forever...' he thought.

He left the studio, heading to his bed. He didn't expect the painting to come to life. After thousands of paintings, after thousands of hours spent painting and trying to recreate the love he once had, Hikaru had given up on seeing Kaoru again. 'I'll always love him... No one will ever replace my feelings for him...'

As he slept that night, Hikaru had no dreams. No thoughts. Nothing. He slept heavily, he slept in darkness. His hearts and mind were empty now of any emotion... His body was so tired and sleepy, no sound could wake him and no person could shake him awake throughout the whole night. Perhaps that is why Hikaru didn't feel the bed shift. Perhaps that's why Hikaru didn't hear the sigh in his ear. He didn't feel the arms wrap around his waist, nor the kiss that was placed against his lips.

A smile played on the lips of the boy. His hand ran gently through Hikaru's red hair as he leaned close to Hikaru's ear, "My poor Hikaru... You suffer so much because of me..." Their foreheads touched.

Kaoru smiled softly and placed a kiss to Hikaru's forehead and watched his lover sleep, "I promise... I won't leave again..." he said quietly, "I won't leave..." He nestled himself against Hikaru's chest and relished the feeling of being by his love once again. He wouldn't leave his lover. His best friend. His world. He needed to be loved.

The End
