"Hell of a pep talk huh?" Hayami muttered more to himself than to her after it was over. "I didn't come all the way out here to die like this under an incompetent leader."
"Please!" She exclaimed, whirling around to face him, the breeze catching her sandy locks before they rested softly down atop her hair. " When I asked you to stay, it wasn't because I… we need you and as much as you try to deny it and pretend; you need us too. The only thing I regret about this is that…"
"I cannot love you and I will never love you. This isn't some lovely little tryst on the love boat in the middle of the Mediterranean. People are dying all around us and you want romance!"
"There is nothing romantic about you Hayami, you think you know everything but matters of the heart are something you don't understand. You're incapable of compassion and of love and I'd hate to be the one to fall in love with you…" with that she stalked off head in the air.
A gust picked up the last trails of Hayami's cigarette smoke before he tossed his stick into the water below, looking sulky down at his contoured reflection.
"Why did I let myself get dragged into this?" he mumbled at his liquid face as it too mumbled back. " Because you're a moron and you love her."
"We'll get through this… we have to and then maybe just maybe I'll let myself dream again of green things and touching her hair."
Restlessly tugging on his coat flaps Hayami made his way about the ships decks wishing that the end would find him soon and that even a cold hearted hyena like himself could find someone to share his life with.
"One day things will be different." he vowed.
Yea I know it's kinda short but hey ...I'm still a beginner here lol gimme a break!
