Disclaimer: I do not own Detective School Q, I do own a teddy bear named Q but since he has nothing to do with this... you can't sue me sticks out tongue at Japanese lawyers (note the author has gone crazy since she's been fired, lost her trusty editor, and been playing Final Fantasy X for six hours straight (without sleep) while listening to Naruto opening/ending songs especially 'No regrets life')

This is the edited version: I've separated the sub chapters, now they're separate chapters

A: Sad news guys I won't be able to update at soon as I can (due to the above reasons), since I don't have the net at home but I'll try my best for my few reviewers...

Thank you loyal to all reviewers:

hugs and kisses, hands out cookies too

Chapter 6 - Overheard conversation & hopelessness…

Yuki's POV

I hung up pretty fast, whereas I had just spotted Hayato and Meg walking by ...together... humph… I don't know why but just then I suddenly had this unspeakably fierce desire to club her over her head.

"Man what the hell is wrong with me?" I thought out loud, sighing. It's not like I actually like Hayato? Do I? I asked myself that question… no… even inside my head it sounded stupid…nevertheless I followed them

"You know Yuki's acting strange lately" I heard Hayato say in a worried voice.

My heart flipped…literally of course. Then he leaned closer to Meg, man was I going to kill that pink haired… argh… I don't have a good enough insult

"Are you worried about her?" Meg replied not at all affected by the closeness of his boyish physique… which by the way is somewhat alluring, funny I never noticed th… oh crap stop thinking about him like that, my mind screamed at me.

"Do you feel like she was purposely avoiding Ryuu?" Hayato asked exasperatedly like he was straining himself somehow.

There was a silence; my heart almost stopped beating in the process… again almost… like as in figure of speech…

"Do you think she likes him?" Hayato blabbed it all out in one breath.

I blushed completely, gasping… What the…?

"I thought so…" Meg said suddenly grinning broadly.

"S-she likes him?" Hayato freaked out suddenly

MORONS… I fumed, wanting to whack the both of them for think that. Me … like Ryuu? Like as if… every other girl might fall over him but I am better then that…

"You silly rabbit" (A: now isn't that the cheesiest line you've ever heard?) Meg patted him on his head, smiling like Christmas had come early…

Hayato laughed nervously, I wonder why, and he let himself be dragged off by that pink haired Kodak eyes freak – there I finally figured out what to call pink haire…oh forget it…

For some time I just stood there thinking about their conversation. Then I suddenly remembered something that I forgotten but was not supposed to forget… oh shit, I thought rushing towards the pier…

"Kyu" my lungs heaved out those words breathlessly (A: another incredibly cheesy line: cheers everyone I'm going insane) I could see the pier; but the problem was that no one was on it… I stopped at a distance, scanning the surrounding area for someone. Then I saw it, in the water, a single white hand reached out, just for a second then it was gone…

Kyu, my mind cried painfully as I broke into a run again. No…. no… no… this is not supposed to happen, I had promised him that I'd watch out for him… even from the distance I was certain that it was him. My failure caused even more pain for me. My pride was fighting against the overwhelming fear I was harboring for Kyu, and it collided abruptly making me light headed and choking in tears at the same time.

As soon as I got to the pier I scrambled, kicking off my shoes, towards the edge but at the last moment my foot slipped and I found my self painfully face-down on the seaweed smelling planks…

Kyu, my mind would just not register the fact that I just landed hard on my head, I began to get up on my feet… unfortunately…

"Arghhhhh" I cried as I fell back on to the foul smelling wood. No… I've twisted my ankle; I couldn't stand up let alone move…

No… damnit, no… my mind cried out for Kyu. My eyes blurred as a cascade of tears flew down my cheeks on to the rotting wood. I punched hard on the wood, a fresh burst of pain erupted from my hand, but it was nothing compared to what I was feeling right now. All the hurt, pain, and failure to save him…

"Help" I cried, my voice cracked, but I couldn't stop, "Somebody please help me" I yelled until my voice grew hoarse…

Finally defeated I lay my head on the pier, bursting into loud uncontrollable sobs… I have failed you uncle… I'm sorry… I let him die… I let Kyu die…

A: TWO WORDS: bad day… sorry about any crappy writing… I'm really cranky… what with losing my editor and lack of sleep…
