This coupling was chosen by Icecream456, for the theme of Abandoned. A bit odd to have a theme of 'abandoned' huh?
Shall I write a sad one or a happier one? Who knows? Place your bets! No, I'm only kidding.
Hope you can enjoy this.
Take this one in any way you'd wish

38 Abandoned (Mukuro x Haru)
Pitter patter, pitter patter.
The rain fell down in a light drizzle.
What would happened if two abandoned people got together?
Would they be two, abandoned people banding together?
Is it just nonsense?
A woman sat alone on a park bench, letting the rain fall down and soak her all the way down to the bone if needed be.
She only wanted for the pain to go away, numb the pain so she could move on.
Though, how could she?
She was abandoned, feeling so alone.
She was up until a week ago seeing someone and she felt that they hit it off rather well.
No, perhaps it was a one-sided thing.
It apparently was as he had cheated on her and broke up with her via email.
What kind of a jerk breaks up with a girlfriend by email anyways!
Even so, Haru could only feel pity for herself, wondering just what she did to make him unfaithful.
Was she not loving enough? Was she too loving? Was she not pretty enough? Just what was his reasoning?
"Why… I have no clue as to why such an attractive woman such as yourself would be all alone under the rain?"
Haru snorted a sarcastic laugh.
"Haru isn't attractive at all. She's just a no one-desu." She said not even bothering to look at him and she continued to stare at the ground.
The rain stopped hitting against Haru's cold skin and she looked up wondering what the cause was as she knew the rain hadn't stopped falling just yet as she could see the rain fall just next to her feet.
An umbrella was placed over her head and the man who was talking to her sat down right next to her on the wet bench, letting himself get wet from the rain instead of her.
"W-what are you doing? There is no need for you to cover me with an umbrella, I'm already very wet as you can see. You needn't make yourself wet." Haru protested against his kindness.
The man shook his head chuckling to himself.
"Fu fu fu fu... I wouldn't be able to call myself a man if I were to let a woman get drenched any further." He said with a charming smile.
Haru looked over him carefully, trying to take in his looks. He was rather good looking.
She was curious about his eyes though.
He's had his eyes closed this whole time. Maybe he had really small eyes?
Or did he like to keep his eyes closed?
His hair color was interesting as well. It sort of looked blue? Then again it was really hard to tell since it was dark outside right now.
His hair was tied up and, she would hate to admit it to him for fear she'd offend him but it looked like it was pineapple centric.
Haru looked away from him with a huff. "Haru needs no help, thank you. I quite like the cold." Haru got up from the bench and walked away from him, but the rain never fell upon her.
She noticed that he was still following her.
What a creep, why was he tailing her? This isn't some new way of kidnapping someone was it? If it was, he would get rid of her soon enough, just like everyone else.
"Will you please leave me alone? I wish to be alone. I'm an abandoned woman after all. I don't need such kindness." Haru huffed walking away faster from him, but the man seemed rather stubborn in staying by her side.
"Why, Miss Haru, was it? Why don't you just accept my kindness? Also being an abandoned person and not being one doesn't mean that you don't have to accept my help you know." He said. "By the way, my name is Rokudo Mukuro." He introduced himself.
Haru stopped walking in her tracks glaring at him.
She didn't want to be bothered by anyone.
She just wanted to sink ito her own self-pity! What part of leave her alone didn't he understand!
Wait, how did he know her name?
"H-how did you know my name?" She asked apprehensively.
He raised his hand to his chin and he chuckled.
"Ku fu fu~ Why, you told me yourself when you called yourself 'Haru' hadn't you? I only assumed that was your name. Have you forgotten already?" He chuckled.
Haru grumbled to herself feeling pretty stupid right about now.
"So, what is this about you being abandoned?" He asked her. "Oh, but of course, only answer if you feel like you can. I would not like to force you into answering me." He said looking alarmed for a second.
Haru sighed shaking her head.
"I was in a relationship with someone a while ago and we were together for a long time, and I found out that he has been two-timing me this whole time, and then he broke up with me via email." She said with a frown on her face.
Mukuro frowned along with her shaking his head.
He could understand why she would be so distraught over that.
Surely no one would take a break up too easily now could they?
Even so it's not really abandonment is it? Well, he could see how it was though.
"I just wish to wallow in my own self-pity so kindly leave me be. I don't deserve for anyone to look after me or try to show me kindness." So this is the famous pity party that girls go into if they go through a harsh break up, is it?
"No."
"Hah? Just leave me alone!" Haru snapped at him angrily.
Wow what a deep blue eye color, and... a red eye?
She's never seen anyone with red eyes before, well, that is a real person. Plenty of anime characters have red eyes.
"Is that a real?" She questioned him.
Mukuro nodded his head.
"Yes, it's quite real. I do say that you are wrong to think that abandoned things don't deserve attention." Mukuro told her.
Haru shook her head not believing him at all.
If he was trying to console her with half baked words, he was going to have to try a little bit harder than that.
She was quite the stubborn soul, and Mukuro didn't feel like losing to an emotional-wreck of a woman. Not that he'd like losing in general.
"Abandoned things are abandoned for a reason. They are defective, not wanted, or just useless, and that's me." Haru noted.
Mukuro raised his free hand to touch his cheek right under his red eye.
"That's not true at all. I would be willing to care for you, perhaps even go as far as to love you as long as you could do the same. Though, I'm not sure if that would work seeing as I'm abandoned as well." He said.
"You see, I was abandoned by my own parents. They sold me to an institute for experimentation because I was born with this oddly colored eye." He said.
Haru gasped, feeling so horrible.
Here she was just groaning about a horrible break up and he's gone through all that and more.
She felt ashamed of herself, unsure of what to say now.
"You know some things are abandoned because of love. Some children are given up to be given a better living. Some are abandoned so they can find a better life, or sometimes people are abandoned since he or she knows they cannot grant the person they love happiness." Mukuro theorized looking at her with a smile.
Haru couldn't help but smile back at him.
He's gone through so much but he still have the strength to want to move on and make something of his life.
He was someone to admire.
"Would it be bad if I were to care for you? An abandoned taking care of another abandoned soul?" Mukuro asked almost as if he were worried about her answer.
She shook her head silently.
"No, I'm sorry, it's fine. Thank you for thinking about me Mukuro-san." Haru thanked him.
Mukuro smiled at her happily.
"Now that's the spirit, I will walk you home right now, else you'll find yourself sick." He suggested and the two walked together alongside one another.
No.
They aren't two abandoned people.
They are just, two lost people who could find comfort with one another.
They were never abandoned, they were just stuck in a sea of life.
They've just been found by each other.
Two 'abandoned people' make, an unseverable bond that no one else can quite understand.
HOPE YOU ENJOYED IT!
