CHAPTER TWENTY-SEVEN
Aya woke up on a cold, stone floor, "Where am I?" he called out to the darkness.
"That's not important right now, you ruined everything for me." came a female voice from behind his body. "You couldn't just keep those two brats away from each other, and now look" an image of Nagi and Omi together flashed before his eyes, "at what you've done. You've helped them get back together!!"
Something struck Aya across his face, "I won't let you leave this alive! Not after what you've done!!"
Aya looked around again, he had stood up after he was hit. "What do you want from me?!"
"Aya."
"I want your life!!" her hands became visible, wrapping themselves around Aya's throat.
"Aya, wake up."
"NO! Leave me alone! I don't want any of this!" He screamed loudly, waking himself up. He saw a figure infront of him and swung his fist at it.
"Ow! Aya, what'd you do that for?!" Yohji's voice sounded from over the edge of his bed.
Aya buried his face in his hands, "I can't do this...... I can't let her have me."
Strong arms wrapped themselves around his shoulders. "She won't get to you, not while we're still here, sweet Orchid." came Gabriel's voice.
Aya began to sob loudly, "She wouldn't let go this time..... she wouldn't let go."
"I know, we heard you screaming, Ran." Abriel said from behind Gabriel. "You've woken the whole house with your noise." he added with a deep chuckle.
His sobs echoed through the room, "I-I'm so sorry....." he choked out, "I d- didn't mean to..... honest! I didn't.... mean to...." His voice began to trail off into nothingness.
Abriel smiled sadly, "Don't fade, Ran. Don't fade."
Aya looked into his friend's eyes. "I can't do anything else. Omi is with Nagi.... Who's with Akira's brother. Who works for.... that bitch!"
"We know, Ran. We know." Gabriel cooed softly. "I want you to stop crying."
"What's worse......."
"What do you mean, Aya?" Crawford asked the sobbing red-head.
"What hurts more?!" he cried out, shrugging off everyone who was near him. "Having something and losing it?! Or having nothing and losing everything?! Can you answer me that?!"
His body wouldn't stop shaking. "I can't live like this. Not with everything haunting me...... I can't!!" he shouted again. "I can't do this......... it's to hard."
Abriel smiled. "What's to hard?"
"To see you all in the prime of your lives.... happy and carefree. Even though at night you kill for a chance to keep yourselves off of the streets..." Aya choked, "it's not fair......... I have had many lovers... many wives and boyfriends........ But none of them can stay with me..." he cried. "They grow old. I haven't changed at all!!"
The red-head sobbed again. "Why won't they let me die......." he was babbling to no one now. "They're being so cruel to me........ I can't die and they're only making things worse for me. Mamaa..... papaa. Why won't you ever answer me?"
"Because they can't, Aya." Yohji said sadly, answering his suffering friend's question.
Aya rolled up his sleave, revealing long, pale scars going across ivory skin. "Do you all see these?" he recieved many gasps. "This is how I found out that I wasn't able to die. I tried over and over again to destroy my body... It all heals!! Only these were too deep to heal... I've tried to burn away my flesh. To just feel the pain of it all. But I've never recieved any release....."
"Ye're trying to hard." came a voice from across the room. "You aren't the only one sufferin' over yer losses, Ran."
Aya laughed cruely, "You're right, Farfello. I'm not the only one who has suffered... Abriel and Gabriel have been suffering with me; Farfello, I'm sure that you've suffered."
Farfello walked slowly over to Aya's bed, and sat down as he grabbed the other red-head's hand. He placed Aya's hand over his heart. "If you have nothing. I'll be something."
The Irish albino placed a feather-light kiss on Aya's forhead before he left the room.

A/N: sorry I won't do a after-party thingie today. Sorry that this is so short too, not in a very good 'writing' mood.
