Umare Koibito (Resurrected Lover)
Chapter 4: Inside of the Memory, We'll Definitely Meet Again… Inside of the memory, we'll definitely meet again…(Shuichi…Shuichi, why have you left me? Come back…come back…)
He looked at the doctors quietly pulling a sheet over that beautiful pale face, that unruly pink hair. Shuichi was…dead. And Eiri Yuki was alone once more.
If you can regain your smile
If your laughing self returns
(I want you to laugh and smile at me…I want you to say stupid things and make me angry…I want you to be there to help me confront my past…Shuichi, I want you here by my side!)
"Your friend…does he have any family?" A doctor stepped up to Eiri's side, gazing up at the taller man with bright green eyes.
"Yes…his mother and father live in downtown Tokyo." Eiri told him. He lived in downtown Tokyo as well.
"Who are you to him? A friend? Family?"
(Who…was I to him? Did he think of me as just a lover or was I…more?)
"I was more than a friend." Eiri said, his voice flat and annoyed.
"Oh." The male doctor looked at him with disgust and quickly walked away. Eiri merely gazed after him with sadness in those beautiful yellow eyes.
(Oh, Shuichi, if you were here again…)
Sadness will turn into kindness
"Sir, you will have to leave now." A female nurse came over and motioned towards the door. Eiri sadly turned to the motionless body on the hospital bed.
(Farewell, Shuichi…I will always remember you.)
He left the room, the doctors quickly following him, locking Shuichi's former room and turning a corner, their faces tight and emotionless. Eiri grunted at their expressions, the expression he always wore before Shuichi had come to him.
(I would have made a good doctor…right, Shuichi? I could have helped you. I would have saved you from dying. I would do anything in my power to keep you by my side. You will still always be with me…)
"As that far off memory was…" With all your desires
He walked along the quiet, dark streets of Tokyo. It was around midnight now…Tokyo was now like a shell of itself. Instead of having drunk businessmen stumbling home after a night of karaoke crowding the streets, there were a few homeless men and a businessman or two but other than that, the streets were empty. It was like the entire city was mourning Shuichi…and the moon, so big and bright…it seemed like that beautiful moon was crying…crying for the loss of one of the biggest Japanese music stars.
The magic of the moon is…shalle a le rilla
(Shuichi…I want you…I need you!)
Eiri began to run, run, run…he ran away from the guilt he felt…because Shuichi…Shuichi had met him in the middle of the road, and Shuichi had pushed Eiri out of the path of that deadly car.
"Yuki…" Eiri heard Shuichi's voice ringing like a loud, harsh bell in his ears. "Yuki! Yuki, listen to me!"
(Get out of my head!)
"I feel the guilt, Shuichi. Please…just leave me alone…" He fell to his knees on the deserted street, the tears pouring out easily.
(Why is it that Shuichi is why I cry? He is giving me so much to cry about…and now I will never be able to cry again. My love is ending with Shuichi. A long time, with Yuki…I promised to never get close to anyone again. And then I met Shuichi…and now he is dead, because of me once more. Now, for real, I promise myself never to get close to anyone…because like before, my heart hurts too much…and Shuichi, thank you for proving to me once more that I was not meant to love.)
"Forget your tears, touch your kindness, Yuki. You know that I'll always be with you." Shuichi said, and he sounded like he was really there this time…not in Eiri's head. And Shuichi's voice was a mellifluent, joyous sound to Eiri's ears that had been deprived of that beautiful sound. The blonde man rose to his feet, wiping the remaining tears from his cheeks, and he turned around to see his lovely pink haired flower standing before him, his face smiling, happy, and content.
If you can forget your tears
If you can touch your kindness
"Shuichi…"
Author's Notes: Well…the 4th chapter is done! And I'm very close to being done with the 5th one, and that will be the last chapter for this song…and then I have more songs in mind. Also…with the post of the 5th chapter I'm going to have to raise the rating to M (otherwise known as R) because of…conduct similar to 'Your Vanilla.' Yeah, it's all I'm going to say for now…I'm still working on that chapter, trying to spoof it up. And then, when it is finished, I'll post it! I've only got a few more pages to write, though…so keep reading, please!
And, as always, don't forget to review!
Wow...2 chapters today! Well, enjoy!
