The Saddest Word
Disclaimer: I apparently do NOT own Yami no Matsuei or any of its characters because if I did I would have been married to Tsuzuki a long time ago!
Warnings: umm…. Pure meanness on my part.
Blood.
Blood.
It was everywhere. In his hair. On his shirt. On the floor. In his mouth. In mine. ("Goodbye's the saddest word I'll ever hear.")
"Hijiri! Hijiri, please… you can't. You can't leave me, you can't die!" ("Goodbye's the last time I will hold you near.") I scream and sob into his blood coated hair. ("Some day you'll say that word and I will cry.") Nothing seems to faze him as he continues to gaze up at me with such love that it makes me choke on the incessant sobs pouring from my throat.
"Hijiri, why? Why did you step in the way? Why did you try to save me? I'm already dead. I'm beyond saving. Even God has forsaken me. Why did you do this?"
Smiling with such patient care he raises his hand to lightly trail his fingers down the side of my face before coming to rest on my quivering lips. "God may have forsaken you , but I never will. Even in death love will find a way to live. I will be your light to lead you from this darkness. I'll see you soon…..Tsuzuki." ("It'll break my heart to hear you say 'goodbye'.")
I gather him in my arms and continue to mourn over his rapidly chilling body. I'll continue to exist in this purgatory, awaiting the day when that one ray of bright moonlight will find me, like the moon peaking through a cloudy night until it reigns dominant in the distant sky once more. Standing, I carry my beloved to my bed where I lay him down and soon fall down next to him. Wrapping my arms around his smaller form I pull him close. "Stay warm, Hijiri, you might freeze to death." I smile softly in the dark as sleep's stealthy clutches grasp my mind and haul me under.
("Until we meet again. Until then…Goodbye.")
A/N: umm…. (sob)…sorry, please excuse me. I hear a box of tissues, or toilet paper (which works too), calling my name.
Hijiri: What's the heck d'ya kill me for… you big cottonhead!
Tsuzuki: YEAH! And why was there blood in my mouth?
Hijiri: Obviously cause we made out right before I was BUTCHERED BY THE INADEQUATE AUTHORESS!
DatenshiBlue39: AHHHHH! I'm sooooooooo sorry! I did cry, I swear! Well, actually I cried before I even wrote it, but it means the same thing…. Honestly!
Hisoka: TSUZUKI, WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING WITH HIJIRI! How dare you do such a thing to me! COME HERE NOW!
Tsuzuki: (puppy whine) Gomen, I'm coming.
Hijiri: EH? Heck no! TSUZUKI'S MY LOVER!
Hisoka: NO HE'S NOT!
Hijiri: Tsuzuki, come here I've got some chocolate chip cookies for you!
Tsuzuki: (big cute puppy tail wags enthusiastically) "HAAAAIIIIII, COOOMMIIINNNGGGG, MY LOVE!
Hisoka: (sighs and growls while mumbling under his breath) Cheapskate!
