The day seemed to finally be ending, I watched the dark sky like every day, no stars were shinning. I looked up and take a long breathe. The wind was warm, it was so calm. I heard the birds. I was in peace for a few moments before everything come to end.

I did not want to return home. I felt like a stranger, on the edge to fall again. I walked without any purpose. Mother won't notice my absent, she was working at night as always. In my room, I did not do anything, I studied and slept. But where to go when you have nowhere to go? I was all alone. With no friends or other family. Was it my life? Despair and loneliness. I was exhausted, I let my tears running away, nobody will witness them, I did not need to be strong anyway.

I passed to the bridge that went to my neighborhood. I noticed something weird…was there someone? I stopped in my tracks, I was wept when I realized it was Natsuki. Was it fate that always brings us together? I hoped someone listen to my plea when she came back to my empty life. What did she do here? She was beyond the safety guardrail. She was looking down carefully. I thought my heart was blocked in my throat. She won't jump did not she? And to my horror, she did it. Her silhouette simply disappeared in the air. I screamed her name and run to her direction. Why did she do that! Sometimes, I thought about ending that life, but it was only a thought. There were others there were other ways to have freedom, to fight, to have another life, to fly away this place.

"Natsuki!" The height was disturbing. My legs were numb. I had to hold on to the padding for not to collapse. I inspected the water to see the brunette reappear or see where she was. I prayed she would not be carried away. And she came out of the water, I breathed again, I rushed down the stairs to rescue her. She managed to reach the edge of the mainland. She coughed while she was slumped on the ground.

"Are you out of your mind! You could kill yourself! Are you alright? Are you hurt? Why did you do that?" I spat, the young woman looked at me and smirked, my heart skipped a beat, she was so mesmerizing.

"And if I die, what would it do?"

"I will be sad and hurt. And your death will hunt me all my life!" I confessed. I heard a meow in response. I frowned. Kuga heartily laughed. I melt, it was the most beautiful sound I ever heard until now.

"You should look at your face, you were thinking that I did that, but no, I'm not a cat and I'm not crazy as you think." I saw that Natsuki held something against her chest. Something… small and gray… a cat? He was soaked and rolled into a ball, he huddled against the dark beauty. I comprehended what really happened… she jumped to save that poor animal… it was so… incredible and kind… and totally dangerous. She left him and got up. She was going away without saying a word and I stopped her:

"Wait…WAIT!" She did not listen to me and continued to move, I was annoyed, was I invisible? I ran and pushed her, she stumbled but managed to stay up, she turned at me, very angry. She grabbed the collar of my uniform, she was strong, she lifted me, I was on my toes.

"It's you who's crazy, what are you doing!"

"It was you who behaving strangely!"

"And why does it concern you?" I cared about you more than you want, or I want…

"I…" She pushed to the ground and she tightly grabbed my neck, she began to squeeze it between her slender fingers, I felt the pressure choke me. She was above me, like a demon who no longer had any human emotions on her features, I had to be afraid of the fate she was going to give me, especially since I had witnessed her anger with Reito, yet I could not help but admire her. She frowned and released me.

"It's my last warning, stay away from me or next time, I will really kill you. I'm not nice or your friend, I'm a demon! Leave me the hell alone!"

"If I can be next you, it will kill me. Please stay. I don't care if you are a demon!" I almost begged. I touched my burning neck, she clenched her fists, I thought she will punch me, but she went away. Perhaps she was right, I was crazy… to be in love with the devil…
