Chapter 11: Episode 11
Yuki and Yuto ran across the rooftop hand in hand. The nighttime breeze blew against their bare faces as adrenaline buzzed their nerves. However, it was the kind of energy that Yuki would like to equate as fear.
"Wait, Yukiyori-kun!" Nishijima's voice called out behind them, but they didn't stop. Not once. Not until they reached the end, with their toes hanging off of the edge.
A single emotion filled her as tears slid down her face. "I'm sorry," she spoke softly. She could feel Yuto's eyes on her. "I'm sorry, Yuto." Yuki returned his look, her chest weighing heavily in grief and guilt. "I couldn't stop you."
Yuto simply stared into her eyes, and then smiled gently. "Yuki, I told you that I would kill unless I have to," he whispered. "Saving you is always worth it."
With the hand that wasn't locked with hers, Yuto cupped her wet cheek and brought her in for a kiss. Yuki's eyes widened, but she found some sort of peace in the way he brushed his lips against hers, so she closed her eyes before the two leaned forward over the edge and fell into the abyss.
That night, they became runaway criminals.
