[A/N] Prompt: Shatter Pairing: Yullen
Based off of the animated video "Draw With Me" [A/N]
They were separated by a sheet of impenetrable glass.
Something that would always keep them apart, even when they were so close. It was always there, always taunting. They could press their hands to the glass and and open their mouths to speak…
But they could not hear one another.
They could no feel one another.
They were forever separated by the glass and it seemed like he could live with that. That he could be perfectly capable in this situation where Allen was breaking down.
He was beating at the glass until he didn't have the strength to anymore because it hurt so much to watch Kanda simply walk away.
He would scream until his lungs were raw, but never did the man hear him. For he couldn't, because they were separated by the wall of impenetrable glass.
Allen thought it so cruel — how he could care so much, and Kanda so little.
But it was just another trick of the glass, another misconception of their personalities.
The swordsman had long since admitted defeat to the glass. This was not the first time he'd had to watch someone on the other side of it, wasn't the first time he couldn't hear or feel.
And back then he'd tried to destroy it, tried to overcome it…
Only to watch as the impenetrable glass destroyed everything he'd worked for.
And now it was back and he didn't want that to happen again. So he conceded defeat the wall, because he would not hurt the person on the other side.
Even at the risk of seeming so apathetic.
But Allen would never stop trying to win. He would never give up because all he wanted was to feel the other's warmth, to hear the other's voice.
So came the day he beat and he beat and he beat at the wall of impenetrable glass. Even when he was so tired and so worn out, even when Kanda tried to make him stop. To yell and scream that what he was doing was stupid and would just get himself hurt — but Allen couldn't hear him through the glass, so he kept going.
He was going to destroy it this day.
And he did.
But the thing about impenetrable glass is, it has a funny way of destroying the person who has the nerve to shatter it's surface.
