Tsumeato and Indigo sat in the hospital waiting for Chiru's doctor to get out of surgery.
Tsumeato couldn't forget all the blood, the way her eyes had filled. He'd allmost lost her. And the thought left him cold with dread.
Doushite kimi wo suki ni natte shimattan darou?
Donna ni toki ga nagaretemo kimi wa zutto
Koko ni iru to, omotteta no ni
Demo kimi ga eranda no wa chigau michi
How?
How had this happened?
After all the times he'd promised never to get close to anyone,
Doushite kimi ni nani mo tsutaerarenakattan darou?
Mainichi maiban tsunotteku omoi
Afuredasu kotoba, wakatteta no ni (mou todokanai)
Before he'd even realized, he was terrified of loosing her...
How could be that he'd found someone he wanted to protect ?!
Hajimete deatta, sono hi kara
Kimi wo shitteita ki ga shitan da
Amari ni shizen ni tokende shimatta futari
Only a few months ago, she'd just been a girl to him, his coworker, some annoying cheerful girl who'd seen something in him he couldn't see himself. And now here he was, breathless at the thought of loosing her.
Doko e iku no ni mo issho de
Kimi ga iru koto ga touzen de
Bokura wa futari de otona ni natte kita
Demo kimi ga eranda no wa chigau michi
"Hey. My my..." indigo smiled. "You love her, don't you?"
Tsumeato's eyes, full of tears, widened. "No! It's not possible! I can't—!"
He wasn't capable of love, that's what he told himself for so long. No matter what, all the people he'd cared about got hurt. His mother, his siblings...
Doushite kimi wo suki ni natte shimattan darou?
Donna ni toki ga nagaretemo kimi wa zutto
Koko ni iru to, omotteta no ni (mou kanawanai)
And yet how was it that one girl was able to climb over his defences?
It wasn't possible , that's what he'd thought.
Then Chiru came along, and everything changed.
Changed him. Just by being herself...
Tokubetsu na imi wo motsu kyou wo
Shiawase kao de tatsu kyou wo
Kirei na sugata de kami sama ni chikatteru, kimi wo
Why?
Why have I—?
Boku ja nai hito no tonari de
Shukufuku sareteru sugata wo
Boku wa dou yatte miokureba ii no darou?
Tears poured hot from his eyes and streamed dow his cheeks.
Why do I—?
Mou doushite kimi wo suki ni natte shimattan darou?
Ano koro mo, bokura no koto, mou moderenai (kangaeta) modorenai (kangaeta)
"Love her," he whispered, gnashing his jaw to hold back his tears.
Doushite kimi no te wo tsukami ubaenakattan darou?
Donna ni toki ga nagaretemo kimi wa zutto
Boku no yoko ni, iru hazu datta (sono mama nii)
How is it possible I love you so much?!
Chiru...!
Sore demo kimi ga boku no soba nara to itte mo
Eien ni kimi ga shiawase de iru koto
Tada negatteru
Tatoe sore ga donna ni sabishikutemo (setsunakutemo)
Inidigi put his arm around Tsumeato's shoulders with a smile.
" My my. Tsume's finnally in love, eh?"
Chiru's doctor let Tsumeato into see her. She lay in bed, still and peaceful. Tsumeato sat beside her and held her hand.
"Chiru," he whispered, tears burning his eyes. "Come back to me, please. I'm sorry I couldn't protect you. I'm sorry I let him hurt you!" He buried his face in her neck, caressing her cheek.
"Come back to me, Chiru. I... I need you here with me..."
But was that safe? Would he only let her get hurt again?
"A girl like you"s got no business getting mixed up with a guy like me...Chiru... I'd only get you hurt. I'm sorry."
He leaned down, and pressed his lips to hers.
Would she ever want to see him again after the things he'd said before she ran away to Kuro?
"Goodbye, Chiru."
He closed his eyes tight, wanting to keep her sleeping beautiful face in hours mind forever.
"Why...why have I fallen in love with you, Chiru?"
He'd buried his face in her hair and for the first time in his life...
He wept for the girl he loved...
My poor charries! I allmost creid writing this big momment! T.T Poor bby tsumeato.
