If I could rearrange the alphabet… thirteen of twenty-six;
Memories; someday this will all be a memory, but let's make it a good one.

"Someday, this will all be a memory." Nagihiko concluded, as he idly stared at the darkening sky.
His pinkhaired girlfriend elbowed him lightly, catching his attention. "Now isn't that a dark thought? Why so negative?"
"Isn't it true?" Nagihiko questioned, staring at their entwined fingers. He brushed over them with his free hand, as if contemplating their existence.
"Every event, every laugh, every kiss, every pain.." Every blissful moment, him and her standing on her balcony in the early evening wind, playing with their hair. The sensation of the breeze whispering already fading.
They'll just become things that used to happen in the past, and will become harder and harder to remember, until all that's left is an unclear feeling about something you're not sure even really happened anymore." Like the time they lost each other in a labyrinth, and he thought he'd never find her again. The huge smile on her face when he finally found her waiting outside, holding out a drink for him. Perhaps it had been a dream, and he didn't dare ask her in fear that it was.
The two sixteen-year-olds both resumed their gaze at the sky. They had assumed the same stance; leaning against the balcony balustrade, their sleeves getting moist from the rain that had fallen on it earlier that day and still hadn't dried; one ankle crossed behind the other, with knees slightly bent, so they could rest all their weight on the balustrade.
Every little thing that felt so vivid right now, but what would already be dulled tomorrow, or even once they went inside when it got too cold to stay out anymore.
The silence was broken when Amu spoke up.
"This may all be a memory later in life, but it's what's happening to us right now, so we might as well enjoy the moment. Besides," Amu said firmly and ever-so-optimistically,
"If all we'll have in the end is memories, let's make them good ones."

a/n I share Amu's view (: Nagi is a closet negativist 8D oh well, he's sixteen; everyone's allowed to have a little angst at that age.
Yeah, I'm under my word limit :D and I'm hoooome!
Merci bien for reviewing, NadeshikeEverdeenHimeSama (Haha, you have some pretty crazy ideas 8D Don't worry, I've already planned a chapter about Midori's (Amu's mom) talk with Nagi :3 Yeah, a bit, but that's what I like about writing XD I learn so many cool (and sometimes useless) things! Nagi loooove ), Stealthy Ninja (memory it is! I would laugh so hard. Then I'd take pictures. 8D), Niki (that's the kind of relationships I love the most, so I'm happy I could convey it :) It'd look better on Nagi, and he knows it! XD), and Rosie-chan the First-ish (aklrohkhaf,eswnLEGASP. If you ever finish that drawing, showmeeee ) !
Next chapter; N stands for nurse!
I believe R&R doesn't stand for Read&Run, but for Read&Review!
So don't R&R, but R&R ! (:
