When Haruka and Michiru arrived at home, Haruka climbed out of the car, stumbled over the gutter and nearly fell. Luckily, Michiru reached out in time to catch her. Haruka let out a curse and shoved her sunglasses back up. "Be careful, love." Michiru advised the blonde, and Haruka nodded. Michiru took Harukas arm and carefully led her up the stairs that led to the front door of their house. Michiru unlocked the door, and Haruka walked in, knowing where everything stood – at least she thought so until she banged against the small table that held the phone. "Ow!" the blonde yelped. "Michiru! Did you move the furniture again?!" Michiru blushed and replied: "Yes, hon! I guess I'll have to stop that now, huh?" Haruka nodded, took off her sunglasses and carefully put them on the small desk. Michiru took her hand and asked: "Want to take a shower with me?" Haruka smiled and nodded, and the two of them made their way into the bathroom.
Later that day, Haruka sat in the living room, listening to music. Now that her eyesight was gone, she found out that her ears had become much more sensitive. She heard nuances in each song that was on the disc that had never reached her before. The blonde was so absorbed by the music that she didn't hear Michiru enter, and she flinched when two gentle hands were placed on her shoulders. "Hey." Michiru whispered into her love's ear. "Hey." Haruka replied while she laid her hand on Michirus, gently caressing the slender fingers with her thumb. "I wish I could see your face." The blonde suddenly whispered, causing hot tears to well up in Michirus eyes. Quickly, the aqua haired girl wiped them away and took a seat in her lovers lap. The two of them kissed deeply before Michiru answered: "See it with your hands, Haruka."
Midnight. Haruka and Michiru laid in their bed, sleeping peacefully. But suddenly, a little moan disturbed the silence of the night. Haruka turned around in her sleep, her fists clenching around the blanket, sweat breaking out on her brow. "No." she whispered. "No, go away…" Michiru didn't notice her loves nightmare, until Haruka let out an ear-piercing scream: "NO! MY EYES!" Michiru was torn out of her dreams, and she quickly grabbed Harukas shoulder: "Haruka, wake up! You are dreaming, wake up!" Haruka awoke with a strangled scream stuck in her throat, and she buried her face in her hands. Michiru put a gentle hand on her lover's back and rubbed it, feeling Harukas fast heartbeat under her hand. "Sht. Calm down, honey." Finally, Haruka got docile and fell back on her pillows, one arm over her eyes. "Tell me about your dream." Michiru whispered into her ear. "It will help you to fall asleep again." "I dreamt about what…he…did to me." Haruka answered, unable to say the name of the man who had brought so much pain and grief to her. Michiru gently stroke her love's face and planted a soft kiss on her cheek. "The dreams will stop, Haruka. And then you will have more beautiful ones." "It's weird." Haruka murmured. "Do you think I will be able to see in my dreams?" "I don't know." Michiru admitted, her hand gliding up and down over Harukas hair. Haruka just shrugged. "It's not that important. After all, they're just dreams. I wish I could see in reality, but…I'll have to get used to my blindness." Michiru nodded until it came to her mind that Haruka couldn't see that, and so she said: "Yes. And I will help you." "Thank you, Michiru." Haruka whispered. "Thank you so much."
