Chapter 14.
Ryu staggered quietly through the streets carrying a small shopping list with him. He hadn't slept very well at all that night the memories of Faust still fresh in his mind. The sun had just risen. He sighed sadly. Time seemed to slow down and nothing felt right anymore. They slept on cold hard floors where nothing but bleek thoughts and memories lingered. The three of them had never felt so alone as they did now. What was wrong with little brother? He had always cared for him a bit more than a older brother would.. maybe to the extent Faust had.
Manta sighed sadly. *~ I never would have thought...Yoh was capable of being so cold..*~ He winced remembering just that momemt when Yoh had yelled at him for being selfish. He shivered. Yoh stared at him from across the room, his chocolate eyes seemed confused. Manta sighed once more as he looked back his wings had dissapeared into the scars on his back again.. however the scars had now turned into a pair of silver tatooed wings forever to be on his back. *~ What's going on..what's wrong with me?*~ He asked himself as he hugged his small fragile knees. Yoh continued to stare. He did not look well at all. Small hot tears ran down his cheeks.
" What ever happened..what happened to 'It'll all work out somehow?' " Manta asked choking a bit lowering his small head to hide inbetween his knee caps.
* And the rain did not stop once again the sunlight was blocked by grey clouds in dark sky. The two lovers sat across from one another only to meet eachother's eyes. Their expressions hurt with the slight look of bitterness. In just one night of devistation the two were slowly drifting appart*.
The rain ran down the windows as the power went out. Monitors and music all around them then turned off only to leave the two in darkness, at such an early hour of morning it had already felt as if it were night. Manta closed his eyes not able to withstand Yoh's cold stare any longer. She shuddered crying softly against himself. Nothing there to comfort him.
Ryu shivered as he collected his bags and left the store. The rain poured hard against them and he thought to himself why he had not bought an umbrella. He continued on his way staring at the tar road in which he walked on the side of. Little was he aware that another person had walked his way.
" Ugh!!" Ryu shouted as he fell to the ground dropping all of his groceries, oranges, apples, and green peppers began to roll slowly down the hill. He rubbed his head in annoyance.
"Uhhh.....uhhhh......I'm....sorry..." The soft timid voice appologized immediately and quickly ran after the escaping produce.
" I guess if you didn't mean to.." Ryu whispered trying to keep himself stable as he stood up.
The boy ran up to Ryu, his arms full. He gasped softly as he caught a glance of whom he had knocked over. The man he was watching ever since he came back here.
" Here..." He said softly tapping him with a free finger.
" Ehm..thanks kid..." Ryu said slowly turning around, suddenly he staggered backwards dropping his arms to his side, a chill went down his spine as his eyes widened and his chest tightened.
"L....L.....L....L.....Lyserg-kun......" Ryu stuttered looking into the beautiful emerald eyes. A blush crept up onto his cheeks.
" Ryu...." He smiled sweetly, although it was only half honest.
Ryu turned around clenching his fists lightly.
" I...its been a while.." he whispered.
" Yes..." Lyserg replied cooly.
