Triangular: Conclusion

Author's notes: Yes…I said in the last chap that 5 chaps more then this thing would be over. But I suddenly found myself skimming through the contents of Writer's University, and found myself freaking out. I need a beta-reader!!!!!! Or someone to critique this whole fic and point out my mistakes in grammar and spelling and everything! I need someone to tell me what the fic's missing, what the loopholes are and just point out what sucks in the ficcie! Please?! I need it! Or else I'm going to die of freaking out…

Mid-June.

Two months after Shirou Kamui was found, bloody and tattered under the rain.

Kamui had been avoiding the three of them, Sumeragi Subaru, Monou Fuuma and Sakurazuka Seishirou, ever since he came to school. He seldom answered questions in class, and he suddenly became quieter than usual.

"How come you suddenly became quiet all of a sudden, Kamui?" Arisugawa Sorata wondered out loud, placing his chin on his palm, as he looked sideways at the purple-eyed bishounen beside him. The three of them were sitting on a intricately-carved bench, laid out on the lavish lawns of CLAMP Gakuen.

Kishuu Arashi looked concernedly at the aforementioned teen. "I have to agree with Sorata-san, Kamui-san." She mentioned in her smooth voice, making Kamui look up at her with smiling eyes.

Although one could easily tell that they were false.

"Nothing happened to me, Arashi, Sorata." Kamui covered up, looking away at the vast plains. Sorata raised his eyebrows in inquiry.

"C'mon Kamui, you're hiding something from us." Sorata concluded, waving a finger at Kamui. Kamui only shrugged at Sorata's motion, smiling wider.

"I'm not hiding something from you. I'll tell you, Sorata, if something happened to me, alright?" Kamui said, turning to Sorata and Arashi.

"Are you sure, Kamui-san?" Arashi asked one more time.

"Hai."

Sumeragi Subaru stared outside his office window, a confused look etched on his face as he sighed audibly.

"Ne Subaru-chan, what's wrong with you?" Hokuto inquired, raising her eyebrows at her younger twin. Subaru only sighed again, turning to look at his older sister.

"It's the last day of classes, Hokuto-chan. It's like the last day I'll ever see Kamui again…as my student. And yet I haven't told him anything." Subaru murmured, looking at the test papers he was going to distribute to his class later this afternoon. Hokuto, pouting, stood up from the comfy leather couch and stood firmly in front of Subaru, hands placed on her hip.

"Oh c'mon Subaru-chan!" Hokuto exclaimed, getting Subaru's attention. "You have GOT to tell him now, or else! I mean, you tried, right? You have GOT to try again, or else Kamui-chan could move to another town or move to another school and you can't see him anymore!"

"I already told him that I loved him, Hokuto-chan." Subaru countered, standing up as well, gathering the test papers in his hands. "He didn't believe me."

"Then MAKE him believe!" Hokuto mentioned with a matching wink.

Subaru looked thoughtfully at the test papers in his hands.

"If you really do want him, Subaru-chan, then go get him."

The Sumeragi got his lesson plan and started to walk out the door. "I will, Hokuto-chan." He murmured, his voice smooth and cool. "I'll get him."

It was already about four 'o clock in the afternoon, with students working hard on their math exams. The pupils were unusually and stressfully quiet in the 2-A classroom, with the proctor Sumeragi Subaru sitting silently on the teacher's chair.

Kamui, meanwhile, was having a very hard time with his exam. He had come down with a high fever the week before, making him unable to catch up to his studies, for the week after that the exams already started. Staring at the numbers at the white piece of paper before him, he sighed and clutched his pencil in deep thought.

'Hmm…how to prove csc A sin B over sec A sin A equals the quantity csc2 A – 1…' Kamui thought, jabbing his pencil incessantly on the table. He continued on thinking, his face lightening up as he got the answer, writing it down with a hurry. Kishuu Arashi already left within an hour after the exam began, giving her paper to Subaru and bowing slightly as she left. Students started to surrender their paper to the proctor one by one, thinking that they were finally satisfied that their answers were acceptable.

Only a few people were left, Kamui being included. Nataku, who was sitting before him, stood up and gave his paper to Subaru. After fifteen minutes or so, Kamui was the only one left, solving the very last problem listed on the last sheet of paper.

Emerald eyes lit up as a set of test papers were shoved under his nose. He looked up at the flustered-looking bishounen who was giving the paper to him, albeit hesitantly.

Without any words, Subaru took the paper and placed on top of the stack. Kamui didn't give anything else – he turned to the door and started to walk to it until a firm hand pulled him back.

"Nanishiteru no, Sumeragi-sensei…?" Kamui asked in a polite manner, but it was shown in his face that he wasn't happy at all about it.

"We have to talk." Subaru said firmly, his hand still grasping Kamui's. "Now."

"I'm afraid we don't have anything to talk about." Kamui said, jerking his hand away from Subaru's and starting to walk towards the exit. Another pull made him unsuccessful in doing so.

"Yes we do." Subaru spat, making Kamui look forcefully at the sublime math teacher. "We have something to talk about, and I'm afraid we HAVE to talk about it NOW."

Kamui sent a glare. "Let me go." He commanded the older man, trying to pull his hand away from Subaru's grip.

"I won't until you let me tell you everything." Subaru held his ground, still forcefully making his angel look at him.

"I said let me go!" the angel repeated. "Let me go!"

"Listen to me, Kamui." The math teacher said, holding a firm but gentle stare in his emerald eyes.

Kamui narrowed his amethyst orbs. "Fine. Talk."

Letting go of Kamui's wrist, he leaned on his table, supporting his figure with his arms. Taking in a deep breath of fresh air, he started his explanation.

"I don't have anything to do with what you went through." He started, looking thoughtfully at the angel before him. "That day…when you thought I forgot about you, I didn't. Well…probably, partly, I guess, but Sakurazuka-san put me up to it."

Kamui's amethyst eyes widened – yeah…Seishirou and Fuuma were the ones who were wanted them apart.

"He wanted me to get closer him, but I was stupid back then. He started calling me a week after your practice began. So my time was spent with him…he was taking up all the time I have to watch your practices –

"Oh c'mon!" Kamui cut off. "That's not true and you know it!"

Subaru looked inquisitively at the student. "Why would you say so?"

"Because if he was just taking your time and you weren't willing, then why would you go with him in the first place?!" Kamui ranted. "If you weren't willing, why would you forget about me?! Why would you be laughing with him, letting him have his arms around you?!"

Subaru was shocked. His angel had a point, and it was true.

"I told you I was stupid back then, Kamui –

Kamui only snorted, although deep inside it was just a cover-up to try and stop his tears. "That's not a good excuse."

Subaru looked pleadingly at the student. "Please, Kamui…just please, listen to me –

"I don't have anything to listen to." Kamui snapped, turning away from the heaven-sent math teacher. Why…? Why did he have to look so kind, so gentle? Everytime Kamui looked at the math teacher all he wanted to do was to cry and let all his tears flow, let his sadness wash away from his aching soul. But he knew better. Kamui knew that he had to keep his tears locked up, and that he had to build a wall to defend himself from people like Fuuma and Seishirou.

But what he didn't know was that Subaru wasn't one of them.

"Sayonara, Sumeragi-sensei." Kamui muttered, starting to walk away from the horror-struck Sumeragi and heading towards the door, praying to God that he will be successful in doing so. But a voice, an angelic one at that, stopped him from opening the door.

"Kamui, you don't understand –

Shirou Kamui was definitely enraged as he heard the words. He didn't understand?!

"No Subaru, I do understand! I'm not stupid! I'm not some doll you can always have around to play with! Why don't you just accept the fact that I can't love someone anymore just because of what you did to me?! I loved you, Subaru – iie, Sumeragi-sensei – and I really thought you loved me back. But you didn't – you only got my hopes high enough for your enjoyment to bring them down! What's so hard to understand about that single fact, Sumeragi-sensei?!" Kamui yelled, his temporary wall destroyed, the dam holding his tears back broken in the war of words. He clenched his fist as he started to whimper, short little gasps filling his lungs with air as his tears streamed like rivers down his flustered cheeks.

"Something's hard to understand…in what you just said." Subaru murmured, his voice soft and gentle as he made the angel look slowly at him. "Because I love you. Because I'll never understand why someone would break your heart. I'll never understand, and I'll never accept, if someone hurt you like this…and I'll never forgive myself if I never said this to you." Kamui only cried silently as Subaru's thumb gently wiped his tears away.

"And I'll never understand…why you'd think I don't love you…" he whispered, standing up to his full height.

…Because I do."

Purple eyes widened as pale lips were captured in one single kiss. A single, soft, passionate kiss that sent his mind in a whirl, a single but meaningful kiss and told Kamui everything he needed to know. Finally accepting his fate, his destiny, the angel succumbed to his teacher's enticing invitation, closing his eyes as he silently acknowledged the strong arms that had circled themselves around his waist. After a short while, the Sumeragi deepened the lip lock, turning it into a deep and passionate kiss with a small flick of his tongue.

The world suddenly stopped for the two inside that classroom. For them, everything was perfect.
