A/N: After rereading this chapter, I was like. "Oh my God, it sucks! I don't even understand parts of it!" So, I decided to rewrite it. I added in little discriptions here and there, and hopefully made it a better chapter. That was a prime example of why I shouldn't write when I'm not fully inspired to.

I woke up a few hours later in a cloud of pink...and I was totally disoriented. I searched the room with a confused mind and sight that seemed the same. I clutched the blanket I was under in tight fists as my eyes searched the room with blurry vision. I blinked a few more times, and then sense returned to my mind.
I was in a bedroom. A girl's bedroom. Not mine. And one I had never been in before. I was puzzled, my confusion causing me to loosen my grip on the blanket a bit.
And then a flood of memories poured into my head like a tidal wave.
Haru...
I was standing with the rough bark of a tree pressing into my back. Haru was yelling at the people slowly closing in around us. There was a sharp prick in my arm, I was lifted up into the air....All the images were blurred, one moment confusingly smeared into the next....I was in someone's arms. I could see Haru's limp form being held by another's...I screamed. There was a hand over my mouth...Then everything was black.
With almost no sense of transition, I was flung back into the present. The room I had been brought to after this mess of memories took the place of the trees and open grass scattered with buildings that still floated around in my thoughts.
I must have been crying. My hands were saturated with tears. "Haru...," I whispered.
I tried swinging my legs over to the side of the bed and launching myself out of it. I needed to find Haru. I could feel the panic in me rising. But the sheets must have become entangled around my legs, because I fell onto the floor in a mess of pink fabric.
"HARU!!" I screamed. And that was when I realized the tears hadn't stopped. They had truly only just begun, and would pour for as long as I held Haru in my memories and in my heart.

I bolted up into a sitting position. Something had startled me into becoming wide awake.
I looked toward the doors in the room. I...I could have sworn I heard someone call my name...
And then I fully took in my surroundings. Kaga?....
The onslaught of memories and emotions that one word brought on was more that I could take. The tears flowed as freely as raindrops down a pane of glass.
"Kaga..." I brought my hand up to shield my face. "No..." The tears just wouldn't stop Why does it hurt so much?...
***
After I cried myself dry, my eyes burning from the lack of moisture, I started thinking.
I sat there, on my futon, my head resting on my knees, my arms wrapped around my legs, trying to think of a way to rip me and Kaga out of this mess.
I've gotta think of something. I...I can't go on like this. I turned my head and laid my cheeck against my knees. There's gotta be something...
The idea that struck my head then caused me to sit up with a start. That's it!

I sat on the bed and looked out the window all day after that.
The person closest to the room ran in after hearing me fall and scream. It had been Kyo. He tried comforting me, helping me up, telling my everything would be alright, but I screamed that it wouldn't be, that it would never be, and pushed him away. The only person I wanted was Haru. The only person I ever wanted to be with was Haru. And they had taken him away. I hated all of them. I hated all of them for doing that.
So I sat there, on that disgustingly pink bed, and watched the world pass by my window with unseeing eyes.
At least for a while, anyway. A flicker of movement in the far corner of the backyard, amist some bushes, caught my eye, and the flash of white hair made my heart jump into my throat. Haru!
I had to keep myself from jumping out the window, I was so excited. He came for me! He came for me!
I jumped off the bed and ran down the stairs, then out of the closest door.
I was outside. I ran in the direction my room had been facing.
Haru was hiding, but his white hair gave him away. Beside that, as soon as he saw me, he nearly jumped out of his hiding place and ran toward me he was so happy to see me.
As soon as he reached me he grabbed my hand and began to run in the opposite direction.
"Come on, let's go! Let's get out of here!"
I would have asked him, "To where?" but right then I didn't care. As long as I was with him, nothing else mattered. He was my one and only friend, the only family I ever had and the only person I loved. I'd do anything for him and anything to be with him. That was all that mattered. All that mattered was Haru, and anyone who wanted to come between us was one to be hated, and nothing more.
