Frooyoooww! So I decided to post this chap as well. I am getting a lot of work done after I wrote those chaps! SWEEET!

I'm actually contemplating on whether or not I should make a cover art for the story. What do you guys think?

So, today we're going to view the chap in Gouenji's P.O.V., I decided to announce it now because the P.O.V. won't switch, even in flashbacks. So there:3

Anyways, I might've made Gouenji a bit too OOC, but it was necessary for the fic!

Before I go, I just want to say... Inazuma Eleven is not mine & OCs belong to their respective owners.

Chapter 29- Moonlit Tears

Everything happened in a blur.

The paramedics burst in & tried to revive Fuyuna, while the girls were interrogating Haruko.

I never heard their shouts of joy & relief when they heard Fuyuna breathe.

I never heard Haruko confess to the millions of great mysteries he'd left behind.

I never noticed a lot of things that night. Because only one thing remained.

Guilt.

All I could think about was how long I'd left Fuyuna with that madman...

The moonlight streamed in & illuminated my tears. Funny. It seemed like it was just yesterday when we were talking about the moon...

(Flashback...)

"Hey, Shuuya-kun, have you ever wondered why the moon is like that?" Fuyuna asked, looking wistful. I looked up & asked, "Like what?"

"Like a piece of cheese!" Fuyuna replied cheerfully. I smiled & was about to launch into a very interesting explanation about the moon, when she cut me off.

"And, no Shuuya-kun, I don't like a scientific explanation."

I laughed out loud, & asked, "Fuyuna, really! How can you tell?"

Fuyuna put on this mock thoughtful face & said, "I guess it's because I can read your face." I sighed, while Fuyuna went back to staring at the moon again.

"Have you ever thought that the moon was made of cheese?" I smiled & countered,

"Have you ever thought that the stars were just Honey Stars with glitter?"

Fuyuna smiled & said, "Y'know, Shuuya-kun, someday the moon will shine brighter than it is now..."

"Because the sun is brighter?"

"Because someday things will make sense..."

(End of flashback...)

I could feel the warm tears flowing down my cheeks, as I felt someone sit on the bed right next to me.

"Shh.. Shuuya-kun... It's okay, she made it..." I realized it was my father who said that, so I just hugged him & started crying harder.

"Otou-san... I... I... failed her..." I stammered, my voice barely a whisper.

"No, no, you didn't fail her, Shuuya-kun..."

My father pulled me closer to him, while I kept crying, & my father comforted me, trying to make me calm down.

After a while, I could feel my eyes slowly closing, I must've worn myself out from all the crying.

The last thing I heard my father tell me was,

"Everything's gonna be alright, Shuuya-kun..."

So, as my parting message...

Please read & review!
