Chapter 18

Unnoticed

"Ha ha ha," she looked over to see the other brothers blue scornful eyes glaring at her. "Poor little Mitsuki couldn't make it in time to save the day ha ha ha" he continued laughing from his paralyzed state on the granite floor. "And now it's all your fault he's like this. He did this out of your own selfishness and now he's dead! Your precious Takuto…Your precious Tak-u-to" his words were slurring. "Is dead ha ha ha" his laugh softened as his eyes closed indefinitely.

"No!" Mitsuki wailed. "No Takuto please!" she screamed crashing her lips to his frozen ones. She placed her mouth against his letting out a big gust of air. She felt the lifeless rise then fall of his chest. She had no clue how to do CPR and her attempts all seemed useless. "Please no Takuto no!" she wailed "I love you!" she screamed falling to his chest letting all her feelings for him fall on his chest.

Broken tears fall from our eyes,

Broken hearts that saw no lies,

Losing those we loved the most

And now they are the one endmost

Her eyes opened to a bright familiar room. There were welcoming soft beige walls with warm brown curtains that had intricate designs halfway covering the window. She could see the white cotton balls floating around outside painting the ground in a delicate layer of white. Any other ordinary day this scene would be normal but not now.

"Where am I?" she asked although she already knew.

"Mm Mitsuki your home." Her heart sank. What was he talking about?

"Eichi?" she asked looking beside her to see him still half awake half asleep looking up at her. "Eichi why did you bring me here where's..." he interrupted her when he pulled her down to his chest clamping his mouth against hers. She tried to push him away but his hold stayed constant.

He continued kissing her and eventually rolled over top of her underneath the hot covers. These actions were way too outrageous and she had no idea where Eichi had gotten the confidence or the nerve. "Mm stop Eichi...N!" His touch stayed constant to hers until he started reaching for more then just her lips. "NO!" she managed to scream pushing his face away from hers. "What happened to you!" she screamed. "What happened to the kind, patient, loving Eichi from before!" she asked looking desperately into his eyes.

"You want to know?" he asked panting. "I searched for you Mitsuki for the six, nine, ten...i don't even remember how many months, searched for you. I was so scared and everyday I prayed you would be alright, still be alive. I prayed and I loved you, I still love you. I love you so much I am afraid to leave you, afraid to take my eyes from you because you might vanish from me as you did that night." His eyes were getting wet. "I love you the most Mitsuki so I have no idea how you can sit there and cry when I try to make one small move on you!"

Mitsuki closed her eyes trying to ignore the pain seeping through her. It hurt to know she had caused him this much pain and it hurt to know that she actually did used to love him that much. But now all she could feel for him was remorse for what she had done. She could never truly love him with the same amount of impact ever again.

"Mitsuki I'm the one you are supposed to see, supposed to love. We were supposed to grow up and have a life, a family." Mitsuki couldn't move. She turned her head looking at the walls.

"I know," she whispered.

"What was that?" he asked.

"I said I know," she repeated. "Eichi there...there was a time that I loved you more then anything. I know that and I am sorry but I...I," she covered her mouth with both of her hands as her eyes scrunched up and she started to cry.

"Mitsuki," he spoke softly leaning down to kiss her forehead. "All you have to do is say that you love me and then we can start where we left off." Mitsuki opened her eyes to look up into the boys hazel ones.

"I can't...I can't Eichi I love Takuto!" she wailed trying to roll away from him. It was no use his body was holding her down.

"How can you say that!" he spat. "That man probably beat you, lied to you, done horrible things to you..." he wandered off on all that terrible nightmares he had had about her. "He told you to say you loved him didn't he! This is all a set up right? He wants you for himself so he threatened you telling you to pick him over me!" Mitsuki just shook her head.

"I'm sorry," she whispered. She felt him shake above her and she gently pushed on his chest. He easily crumpled. "I have to go," she felt his weak hand grab her wrist as she started to climb from the bed. "Goodbye," she said feebly shaking away his hold.

Once she had changed she ran from the apartment. She was surprised Eichi hadn't tried to stop her. All he had done was lie in the bed looking at the ceiling. It hurt her to see him like that knowing she was the guilty party but she couldn't be held in his arms for another minute. It hurt her to be held knowing she was a murderer.

Sure she could blame others like Kato but in her eyes she was the one who had done it. If she would have been stronger, if she would have been able to resist Eichi back at the garden she would have been able to save him. If she would have just told him that she loved him in that one moment they had after he had kissed her then he would still be alive.

Izumi and Meroko were sitting in the dinning room at the mansion. It seemed like the winter weather had trailed inside the mansion and frozen all the occupants. All were present at the table except for the outstanding two who would never sit at a table again.

"So what's left for us now?" the smallest cousin Minoru asked quietly.

"Nothing," Sheldon said venomously. "That stupid selfish bastard killed himself."

"He didn't and you know that!" Izumi roared slamming his hands against the table. Meroko put a comforting hand on his arm.

"Well then if it's not his then I can only think of one other person who is at fault!" he growled. "But she's not here right now, probably gallivanting around with that preppy blonde fuck!"

"Well I don't see why your complaining so much you tried to kill Takuto on a regular bases! The way I see it you and Kato were the only two who really didn't care about anything other than killing our cousin." Minoru's voice was starting to grow. He had always been the youngest therefore was pushed around the most and never got to use his voice. He remembered how one day he had been crying because Kato had yelled at him over something and Takuto had walked over to him after to tell him to stick up for himself. He had said that the only one who could truly protect himself was him. Minoru had always looked up to his older cousin for that and never felt any hate for him like the others had.

"You little runt how dare you!" Sheldon was starting to stand from his seat as was Minoru.

"Everyone sit down!" Tarou yelled. He had stayed quiet for most of the morning and this was the first time he had spoken up. The rest of the room grew quiet and Minoru and Sheldon sat. "Can you not see!We are all damned now we'll never make it anywhere. Our families existence is over once Minoru dies."

"But if we just keep doing what we were doing when Kato was alive then the curse might have a chance of being broken won't it?" Sheldon asked.

"No, Mitsuki and Takuto were the only two who could break it. They had to fall in love, they had to confess, they had to break the curse!... And now we're all damned." Tarou whispered looking out of the large windows as the rest stayed silent looking down at the table.

Sheldon had glared at those around him then left the room unnoticed.

She had wandered around the city getting strange stares then decided to go to a small park to sit on a small swing set. She ignored the weather. It had snowed when she left the apartment but that had slowly started to change as it was now raining.

She looked down at her hands. The hands that had been useless. The hands that couldn't bring him back. It felt good to sit in the rain by herself. It was the only way she could really survive now. Every fallen raindrop was like a tear from the angels above it was as if they knew. They knew he was dead just like she was on the inside. He was an angel a cursed angel who was never given a chance to truly spread his wings.

"If I would have just gotten one chance one moment to tell you!" she cried falling from the swing onto her knees. "If I wasn't so selfish and naive for one moment then you would still be by my side as I loved you," she whimpered falling to her side.

The brutal memory would batter around in her mind and all she could do was sit in her lonesome. Even the empty park where she would play as a child was not enough to satisfy her needs. Her need of wanting to be held. It took a while but she had finally realized that the only one who could make her feel whole again was the one who was far from her reach.

"Takuto," she whispered running her hand across a small muddy puddle.

A cold breeze whisked through her silken hair making her shiver. She looked up to the clouds. "Is that where you are Takuto? Are you with mom and dad?"

She wiped away some more tears before sitting up.

Hold me tight, if this is how it feels

I didn't want to know

What it was like to be in love with someone

I love you, my tears won't stop

And so I wish

That I had never met you

She sang the song her dad had always sung to comfort her. It seemed to help her a little and she remembered the time that she sang it to Takuto.

She sat there and she remembered. She remembered the times Takuto had saved her and the times he had comforted her. Even the most precious of her memories when he had held her in his arms for one night. If she could bring back just that one moment and relive it she would be happy. Because then she would not be so naive and she would tell him that she loved him.

"Mitsuki?" she whirled around when a voice called her name from a distance.

"Takuto?" she asked trying to look through the rain.

"Where the hell is Sheldon!" Tarou roared bursting into one of the sitting rooms where Izumi and Meroko sat.

"He said he was going out why?" Izumi asked bored. He tried to hide his emotions but it was plain on his face that he was mourning over his friends death.

"Because of this!" He handed Izumi a piece of paper which had been crumpled in his hand.

"Dear losers," Izumi began to read aloud. "I am not going to sit back and let this blow over like it's nothing. If there is no chance for us to break the curse then I will break the remaining connections to the curse." Izumi's expression actually changed. "What...the...hell?" he strung out each word.

"Izumi please look after her when I'm not there. It took me this long but I realize now that I love her more then anything so please, please, please make sure nothing happens to her."

Izumi remembered the last few words Takuto had said to him before he had gone to look for Eichi.

"Where the hell is he!...Where is Mitsuki!" Izumi yelled standing from his chair.

"I don't know, but you were with Takuto the night you kidnapped her weren't you?" Tarou asked desperately.

"Yes!" he raced to the door then spun around. "I'll go warn Mitsuki but you should stay here just in case he comes back with her." he looked to Meroko before leaving. "I want you to stay here because I think you'll be safer.

"Be safe," she whispered. Izumi tried to smile before leaving the room. It hurt to have to leave her behind but if he wanted to do one last thing for his best friend it would be looking after the only person he had ever loved.

"Takuto I promise you I will look after her!" Izumi vowed grabbing the keys to one of the cars they had in the garage.
