Another drabble on my part. Yes, with stress running high I feel like I've lost my purpose in life. Let me write and write till I find what I'm living for.
Until Then
"I hate you."
Those words stopped him in mid-word. His fingers stilled upon the keyboards as he frowned slightly but did not look up.
"Damn it, Yuki. Look up at me. Can't you just look at me for once? Can't you just forget Kitazawa for once? Just…" His voice broke as he tried to stifle a sob.
Still he refused to look up.
"What's he got to do with this, brat?"
Shocked silence. Eiri could almost see his outraged and ultimately hurt expression.
"You…"
A soft thump against the floor. At the corner of his eye, he could see Shuichi's closed eyes as he shook his head from side to side. Tears glittered and fell onto the floor between his knees in his kneeling position. Eiri stood up and almost went to him, but in the end he stepped around the crying figure and out of the room.
Not now, not today. Till then he would always will himself to walk away. Till then he would keep Shuichi by his side by pushing him away. Till he can fully love Shuichi.
Poor Shu..I guess I feel better after subjecting him to such misery. /grin/ But still I think that this piece lacked depth. Is it that most of it is up to readers' interpretation or does it just plain suck or something? I must get volumes 8 and 9! Dang, that'll teach me to never collect any manga from the last volume ever again. What a stupid thing thing to do. Ugh. Now I feel dumb.
