Shigure paused for a moment standing outside of the elementary school and then looked down at the floor, as he held Kyo's little hand in his, "Hey there," he spoke looking at the uniform and then paused putting his hands around Kyo's tiny little shoulder. "Hey there?" he asked with a smile, "What's wrong?" he blinked and then looked to Kyo. The small cat had a look of pain in his eyes and Shigure wrapped his arms around him and kissed Kyo on the forehead, "Hey there..." he spoke and Kyo looked up at him before blinking with these sad little eyes, "It's school, lots of little boys go to school,"
"But I want to spend time with you 'Gure," he spoke looking up at Shigure and attaching himself to his leg, "I want us to be like we were during the summer, always talking, always laughing, I don't want to go to school Shigure, we won't have enough time to spend together and you told me that you wanted me to exercise more, try out for the soccer team and...and...you did make up a reason why I don't have to learn to swim, right? right 'Gure otou-san"
"Yes but that was summer," Shigure spoke before kissing Kyo on the cheek, he was being selfish, even if he didn't know it deep down in his heart Shigure knew it, "It was a holiday, they'll be lots of time when I have free time again, like Thanksgiving maybe, and Christmas and there's always spring break and don't forget that if we're still close together maybe next summer can be just as fun as this one. We can still talk to each other though but we need our own separate lives with people around us in real life. See," he said touching Kyo on the face, "I want you to grow up smart and get educated and draw and all of that, plus we can have lots and lots of fun together...hmm, maybe we could make a special promise?"
"Pwomise?" Kyo blinked looking at him and then felt his heart in his mouth, "We can make a pwomise to each other to show that we can still be close in our hearts, even if we don't spwend so much time, is that what you're saying 'Gure otou-san?" he asked wiping the tears away from his eyes at the idea of losing Shigure. "What is it?"
"We talk to each other every day, through an email hopefully, and when we read these emails from each other we'll know that we're close to each other, you don't have to spend every single moment around me Kyo and when I go shoppinh and take care of the responsibilites I have you should do something fun for yourself, we'll get together a lot of the time and we'll still talk to each other. Hopefully we'll both have time every single day to talk to each other, even if it's just with a little note. And...and I'll always be here for you, promise you'll always be there for me?"
" 'Course 'Gure-otou-san I'll try my very very best," he nodded excited, "So as long as we keep each other in our hearts we know that we care for each other, so school won't be that bad even if we only have a little time afterwards, we can still be together right? And then next summer, maybe next summer we could have more and more fun."
"Yes we could," Shigure laughed patting him on the head, "I think that our addiction to each other shouldn't be completely broken, but during school season other things come first, and we'll try and make the best of our time together," he spoke holding tight to Kyo, "I'm sorry that you didn't understand, but I'm here for you...always thinking about you..."
"And I'm sorry for crying sooo sooo much," Kyo laughed and hugged Shigure tightly, "I can't wait until we have much more fun. What do you think about us having fun like last summer when school's out for breaks and stuff Shigure, and when school's out for summer if we're still in love with each other the same 'mount..."
"Okay," Shigure nodded, "I hope we can have more fun when school isn't around, like those nice weeks off, I want to be there for you...I hope we can have fun next summer Kyo"
I hope we can have as much fun next summer Mimi, even though I may not be thinking clearly, I want to be there for you...hopefully we can have fun during the breaks that happen this year.
