Short, and hopefully sweet. I've had this bouncing around my head for a while and decided to let it out. Not betaed, just to warn you.
As he lay down on the hard, cold soil to rest Ryuhou finds it almost humorous how he hopes to sleep, how he craves it. He used to hate sleep. Sleep meant dreams, and dreams became nightmares; memories of that horrible moment when his life shattered.
Now however, he battles through the day with only one goal in mind. The reward of dreaming,
because in his dreams she dances. On the white sand of a sunlit shore, the vivid blue-green ocean sending tiny waves to gently caress her bare feet as she spins. Arms spread wide she laughs without worry, without sorrow. A graceful, and wild beauty just beyond his reach.
Every night he watches her dance engraving the image in his mind. Sometimes he thinks it may be the only thing that keeps him going, that keeps him sane. He will continue fighting, continue living for her. He will take on any challenge with all his strength until his body gives out.
He hopes on that day he will finally be able to dance with her.
