When the Last Teardrop Falls

When the Last Teardrop Falls- A semi Utena/Touga fic.

A/N- I'm no expert on the Utena movie, due to the fact that I've never even seen it. I do know some of the back-story but please, if there are problems just write them off as ignorance.  *sigh* For someone who doesn't like romance all that much, that's all I've written so far! I think this would be the manga version, I'm not sure how it goes in the movie, but I read a .txt translation of the manga and at the end was the "letting go of memories"  (to escape Ohtori) thing.

Disclaimer- The Utena characters belong to Be-Papas, Flower Comics, Kunihiki Ikuhara, Chiho Saito, and a bunch of different people.  The song  "When the Last Teardrop Falls" belongs to Blaque. I claim no rights to any of these, so on and so forth, yadayada.

It's so hard to lose the one you love

 To finally have to say goodbye

You try to be strong

 But the pain keeps holding on

Utena stared into the water. He's gone, she thought numbly.  Drowned…to save her! "Touga…" she whispered, collapsing.

 All that you can do is cry

 Deep within your heart

 You know it's time to move on

When the fairy tale that you once knew

Is gone

It was the first day of school at Ohtori.  As the bouncy, brown-haired Wakaba showed her around the school, she thought she saw a glimpse of red hair. Touga? She thought. She shook herself. No…Impossible…

 When the last teardrop falls

 I'll still be holding on

 To all of our memories

 And all of what used to be

 When the last teardrop falls

 I will stand tall

 And know that you're here with me

 In my heart

When the last teardrop falls

 See now I'm alone

 And life keeps moving on

 But my destination's still unknown

Oh yeah

She had just beaten Saionji.  She just didn't get it! What was going on at this school? She had no idea…

 Will there be a time

 When I'll fall in love again

 When I just let you walk these streets alone

Utena and Anshii danced on the Dueling Platform, amidst the drowned roses.  It was the first time in years she'd allowed herself to be really close to another human being.  The first since Touga…

If there was just one wish I could be granted here tonight

 It would be to have you

 Right back by my side

Touga was here! She'd seen him on campus.  But how was that possible? It couldn't be….

When the last teardrop falls

 I'll still be holding on

 To all of our memories

 And all of what used to be

 When the last teardrop falls

 I will stand tall

 And know that you're here with me

 In my heart

When the last teardrop falls

 Ooh…baby…

 Now it's time for me to find

 My happiness again

 But the emptiness from missing you

 Will never ever end

 Baby….

 Erase me from within your heart. If you don't, you'll die while living in this world.

I can't do that!

Don't cling to your memories of being loved by me. If you do, your time will stop there forever.

I won't forget you!

When the last teardrop falls

 I'll still be holding on

 To all of our memories

 And all of what used to be

 When the last teardrop falls

 I will stand tall

 And know that you're here with me

 In my heart

When the last teardrop falls

As Utena and Anshii crossed the boundaries of Ohtori into the real world, she looked behind to Ohtori for the last time.  Touga… she allowed herself to think of him one more time, and then blew out of Ohtori like a rose petal on the wind, never to return.
