CHAPTER 14
Ryuichi's P.O.V
I felt totally dead. No. This couldn't have happened! Everything was fine! If I just closed my eyes and counted to three...this was all just one awful, awful dream...right?
One.
Two.
Three.
I opened my eyes. No. It wasn't a dream. My clothes were black, along with everyone elses here. Yuk looked like a raccoon, with dark circles around his eyes. He had smoked half a pack of sigerettes in the last half hour, and Shuu-chan was crying softly, with Mika. In all the times I've known Mika, I've never seen her cry this much. My bottom lip trembled and I saw Tohma's fingers graze the wood of the coffin, where...
where...
I walked over, standing beside Tohma and peered in.
There he was. Pale as ever, and his raven-black hair fell into his closed eyes. Oh how I loved his eyes. They were dark, and intense. Passionat and sincere. Both of his long arms were layed across his chest, and he wore a black tuxedo. Somthing so unlike him.
FLASHBACK
"NO!" Ryuichi yelled loudly at Tohma, his blue eyes blazing in anger. "You can't! He'll wake up! Ta-kun WILL WAKE UP!" He fell onto his knees, and looked up at Tohma's murky green eyes. They showed so much pity. It just made the singer angrier.
"I can't keep funding for this, Ryuichi...I have a company to run."
"But he's your brother in law! He's Yuki-san's brother! He's your wife's brother!"
"Be quiet." Thoma left the room. He was going to take Tatsuha off his life support. It had been nearly six months. The boy hadn't woken up yet.
Ryuichi ran into the hospital room, where the Uesugi boy lay, and he began crying. "no...Tatsuha..." he walked over to the bed side, and gingerly placed his hand on the teen's forehead. It was warm, still. "I...I love you, Tatsuha. I can't belive it, but I fell in love with you. To be honest...you were my first kiss. I know I wasn't yours. I would've liked to be, though. Oh Tatsuha...please...please open your eyes...oh please.." he was close to begging, as the tears continued to streak down his childish face.
Nothing. Only the faint beep of the heart monitor were the sounds in the white hospital room. White. Ryuichi shuddered noticably.
Beep.
Beep.
The beeping continued, and the older singer looked over towards the monitor. The little line began to straighten out...his eyes widened.
Beeeeeeeeeeep
"NO! TATSUHA!"
Doctors came rushing in, running to the bedisde. They began to do the presedure. "Sakuma-san, please leave." A female doctor instructed, having to drag the brown-haired man out. "NO! TATSUHA! NO NO NO!" THe tears poured down even more, and things were getting despereatly blurry...
END OF FLASHBACK
A few tears leaked from my eyes. I couldn't call Tohma the murderer. Tohma hadn't had the chance to speak with the doctor, when Tatsuha finally died. He had first become brain dead, then it hit his heart. No heart beat, no breath. They say he hadn't been in pain.
Yuki was blaming himself constantly. After all, he's the one who hit his own brother.
Tatsuha...oh Tatsuha. I clutched Kumagoro close to me. The dark-haired teen been through so much. He should never have met me. I should never have given Shuichi an extra ticket.
Tatsuha looked so beautiful. I hoped he was happy, and warm...wherever he was. I never even told him about my love. How much I cared for him. How I wanted to be with him. Even if he was half my age. I loved him. Everyone told me he loved me in a fan way.
But the way those lovely dark eyes looked at me, and his dazzling smile...it wasn't just a fan love. No. I know he really loved me, too.
I felt a hand on my shoulder, and turned. Noriko. She smiled weakly at me. "It's okay to cry, Ryuichi." Of course, I cried like Shuichi, in naive stupidity, alot. But I knew what the keyboardist ment. My real feelings. Something I hid from the real world
"I'm fine, Noriko."
"We have to leave soon." That was Tohma's voice.
I didn't want to leave. I could just stare at Tat-chan's face all day, to caress him, and brush those black looks from his face...
"I love you, Tatsuha." I mummered at last, as everyone but me left. And I swore, I saw him smile.

Two men came into the church, and walked over to the coffin they needed to bury. The family and such hadn't wanted to do one of those 'watch while the coffin is lowered and buried' ceremonies. "Looks like a good kid. Well-built. Handsome. Tall. He could've had a bright future." one man stated, scanning the body quickly, voice as dull as if he were talking of the weather.
"Hai." The other answered, and both began to lower the top.
That would be the last time anyone set eyes on Tatsuha Uesugi. Nittle Grasper's number one fan. Brother in law of Tohma Seguchi, and younger brother of Eiri Yuki.
And he was holding a stuffed pink rabbit plush.
