I think that maybe I am more motivated when I'm sick. And yes it's sad to say that I have developed yet another cold. But fear not, for I have vacation starting tomorrow so I should be able to recover, but I can't promise a lot of chapters since the entire time I'll probably be out with my friends. Well, I hope you enjoyed the last chapter and this one fills any questions anyone might have. As you know I am happy to answer questions.

Point of No Return

Haru's POV

Flash Back

"I love you too Haru," her eyes filled with silent tears. My heart seemed to overflow with joy. Suzu loves me; my mind seemed to shout at me.

The weeks after were heaven on earth for Suzu and I. We were happy to know that we shared the same feelings. Then on one stormy night I heard a tap on my window after I had fallen asleep. I opened my eyes to see Suzu sitting in the tree outside my room. I rushed over to open it and helped her inside.

"What's wrong Suzu?" I asked worriedly. There were bruises all over her arms, and a gash in her forehead. She huffed silently for a few minutes before she responded.

"I was mistaken." She had spoken so softly I was not sure I had heard her correctly.

"You were mistaken? About what?" I could feel my heart beat increase as possibilities filled my mind. She bit her lip viciously and blood bloomed. The action startled me and I was unsure of what to do.

"I don't love you." My face went cold. I could feel Black Haru thrashing around inside of me.

"What happened Rin?" I demanded reverting back to her adopted name. Staring at the floor to avoid my gaze she cracked her knuckles nervously.

"Nothing happened, I just realized that I was mistaken." The rage seemed to build more and more inside of my worthless body. "It was just a game. I never thought that you really cared for me. Come on Haru, you can understand that can't you?" My fists clenched and I let Black Haru loose.

He raised his eyes and turned Rin's face towards him. Then he kissed her passionately.

"Now tell me, tell me that meant nothing to you. Tell me that this was a mistake and that what I 'mistook' for love was just sexual tension!" He yelled in misery. He did not tighten his grip, nor did he try to restrain her as she stood to leave.

"Haru, that meant nothing to me, this was a mistake, and we were never in love with each other." She said stopping in my doorway. All the while she never looked me in the eye.

Ever since the day Rin left, Black Haru appeared more easily and more often. He was suspended from school and pushed everyone away.

The cool air caressed my face as I walked through the light rain. Momiji had run ahead to talk to his friends while I walked slowly. The school loomed a head of me and I had no desire to enter its suffocating walls. For the first time in a year I wanted to skip. I haven't skipped since Suzu… I banished the thought before it was fully formed. I trudged the rest of the way into the school and opened my locker.

There was the usual assortment of people around me. My friends, flirtatious girls, and random other kids. I use to revel in the chaos of the morning, but today I longed for an Advil the size of my head. I made my way towards class with out really thinking. I just turned on my internal autopilot. (A/N Usually for Haru his autopilot leads him to the wrong place.) Sliding the door open I glanced inside.

I froze at the sight of her. She was sitting at her desk for the first time in a long time. Her hair was worn up today in an elegant twist leaving her slender throat bare. Slowly she raised her eyes and met mine. The bottom fell out of my stomach and I panicked. Momiji entered the room right when I was going to retreat so I swallowed my terror and walked to my desk.

There was no hello, no pleading, nothing. It was as is Kyra wasn't even there. I glanced at her during class and was disappointed to see her writing the notes that were on the board instead of those cute cartoons she use to draw.

Lunch was much of the same, at the bell Kyra was up and gone before I had pushed all my books into my bag. In the cafeteria she was nowhere to be found. My stomach was still on the fritz so I didn't try to eat my lunch. Instead I decided to sit on the roof to get some fresh air.

"Where are you off to Haru?" Tohru inquired frowning slightly at my untouched meal.

"To the roof, I could use a little air." Kyo gazed at me suspiciously but made no comment.

The old door was heavy and made a loud noise when it was pushed open, but I managed it. The memory of Kyra and my first kiss assaulted me as soon as my eyes swept over the roof. Every detail was still burned into my mind. I had been so lost in the past I hadn't noticed the slight gasping sound coming from around the corner.

Peaking around I saw a blonde head with straight hair flowing around the body of what I assumed was a girl.

"Um, are you alright Miss?" The gasping sound stopped and slowly the girl raised her head. Through the flowing mass of hair I could see a pair of glowing green eyes. She swept the rest of the hair from her face revealing the face of my recent past. My heart raced and old wounds began to throb as Kyra opened her mouth to speak.

"I made a mistake,"

"Excuse me?" I whispered wishing I had not heard those words again.

"I think you should take a hike." Kyra repeated stronger this time. Tears were still slightly streaking down her face, but her eyes blazed with hurt and confusion. I felt bad for stringing her along, but there was nothing I could do now.

Turning I went to leave, but I felt something collide with the back of my head.

"You flaming, stupid ass, moron!" She yelled at me as she retrieved her shoe from where it fell after colliding with my head. I was amazed to see this much emotion coming out of her mouth. "I put my own heart on the line so I expect at least a rejection. All you did was walk away. You never said anything. What am I supposed to think, huh? That I would just move on because you are such a pansy you couldn't decide or grab enough courage to face me?" I felt my mouth open slightly. Originally I was going to defend myself, but her accusations were true.

"What can I say to make you understand," I started. If it was possible her eyes grew larger. Coming towards me she bore her teeth.

"Understand this!" She said as her hand connected with my face smartly. My head snapped to the side and my brain shut down. Black Haru sprung up to the fight so fast I didn't even have a chose in the matter.

I stood up straighter and cracked my neck. She stepped back slightly noticing the change in me.

"Finally the one I can talk to." The next thing I knew she had her legs wrapped around me and her mouth was plastered to mine. Black Haru is not known for his restraint so he reveled in the contact. After a minute she released my waist and stepped away huffing slightly. "Now tell me that meant nothing. Tell me everything you have done for me was out of pity, and that I mean nothing to you. Do all of this while looking me in the eye. Only then will I believe that you don't care about me."

My memory of my similar speech played in my head. I knew what was going threw her head because it had gone through mine as well.

"Why do you love me?" I whispered the question but I knew she heard me. "Are you sure it's not a mistake?" She looked confused, but at least the anger was subsiding.

"I love you because of who you are, and that you except me. I love the way you make me laugh and how you look when you're sleeping. (A/N ok so that one is a little creepy) I could try to move on if you don't feel the same way, but I would rather not have to." The tears had returned and again they were running down her face. As if they had a mind of their own my feet propelled me towards her and I enveloped her in my arms.

"Plus the fact that you're a hotty helps to." She squeaked out of my shoulder. I laughed a little and pulled her away.

"I can't say it, but can you read my eyes?" I willed her to see every one of my emotions through my eyes. I watched a smile play across her mouth before she hugged me again. She might not know why I couldn't say 'it' back to her, but she seems content with knowing deep down that I love her. We held hands as we descended the stairs. Yet again the roof had worked its magic.

Awww, I made this one wicked romantic. I think it's cause I an a softie when it comes to gushy lovey dovey stuff. Well, I hope everyone understands Rin and Haru's relationship now. Don't worry you will hear it from her side as well. If anyone has any ideas I am open to suggestions, but now I think I might start the next chapter.
