Note-My reviewers, if you want to argue with the others, you may, but please leave a review to the actual chapter. PLEASE.
Note #2-Just in case Keiko doesn't know of Yusuke's job in the series, let's pretend she does now. Remember, this is an AE.
On with the fic!
Mine All Mine
Keiko sat at the table, looking at her coffee cup. She was still rather stunned from a few nights ago. The big fight with Yusuke.
She'd nearly forgotten how it all started, but...
~ ~ ~ ~ Flashback ~ ~ ~ ~
"Why are you late?" Keiko demanded. He was a half hour late.
"Another monster I had to take care of," Yusuke said.
"It's always another monster!" Keiko yelled, infuriated. "You're always away with those monsters!"
"Well, would you rather I just let them run around and destroy Earth?!" Yusuke countered.
"No, I'm saying that this is really suspicious." Keiko eyed him. "There's a new monster everyday. And you have a female partner, do you not?"
Yusuke remembered Botan and what she had said, but he pushed that to the back of his mind. "Botan is my partner. There is nothing going on between us!"
"You expect me to believe that?" Keiko yelled. "You're on a first-name basis with her, aren't you?"
"Well, I kinda have to be, I do work with her everyday!"
"Oh, come on! I think you're just trying to cover up! You want her instead of me, don't you!"
Yusuke felt hot with rage. "If you can't trust me, we might as well not be together!"
"Fine!" Keiko turned around and slammed the door behind her.

She took a sip of her coffee, and looked out the window at the sky.
Sun kisses the windowsill
And I am still
On my second cup of pity me
~ ~ ~ ~ Flashback ~ ~ ~ ~
"Yusuke, I really am sorry. I shouldn't have said those nasty things."
"Yeah, you shouldn't have."
"Yusuke, please forgive me. I was only angry…"
"You don't trust me. I can't be with someone who can't trust me."
"But…"
"I'm sorry, Keiko. No."

It's been a long night chasing ghosts
But at the most
It's been a rude awakening
A year together, down the drain. All because she'd been so stubborn.
That, all too late, I finally see
That it's my loss, my lonely
My mistake, mine only
Mine, all mine, all mine
'Damn you,' Keiko berated herself in her head. 'Why did you have to be so mean, so untrusting! He has his work, he's been protecting you…and you throw it all away!'
And it's my bad, my broken
All my should-haves left unspoken
Mine, all mine, all mine
She stared at herself in the bathroom mirror and suddenly hated her reflection. 'You are too pushy and strict and…well, overbearing. You pushed him away time and time again. Now he's gone, and you don't have anyone to blame but yourself.'
I drove you to the edge of the map
And after that
I pushed you off just to watch you fall
You never were the bounce-back kind
But boy, this time
You've proven me wrong, after all
Now I'm the one who's gonna crawl
'Cause it's my loss, my lonely
My mistake, mine only
Mine, all mine, all mine
And it's my bad, my broken
All my should-haves left unspoken
Mine, all mine, all mine
"I'm sorry, Yusuke," she said out loud as a single tear fell down her cheek. "You'll never know it, but I am."
Always thought I get to sorry
But the chance has come and gone
So, if it finds its way back again
I'll hold on, hold on, hold on
She turned from her reflection and walked to the living room. She needed some time to think about what she would do now.
My loss, my lonely
My mistake, mine only
Mine, all mine
All mine, all mine
All mine, mine
It's mine, all mine
It's mine, all mine
Yeah it, it's mine, all mine
"Good-bye, Yusuke," she said out loud.
Thus began her life anew.
All mine, all mine
All mine, all mine
That's how Yusuke and Keiko broke up.
