It has already been a week since she ran away. Everyone tried to approach him, to ask why she left, but all Kuroro did was shrug them off. He knew it was because of him that she's now gone. He hurt her. Both mentally and physically. If only he didn't force himself on her, then she would still be here, casting her pure and innocent smile at him.
He could still remember that sinful night. He just came back from university, a bit proud to announce that he was to graduate the next month as top of their class, when he heard his parents and Kurapika talking excitedly in the living room. It really wasn't in his nature to eavesdrop but he felt like joining in the conversation would just ruin their fun. It has always been like that. His seriousness and lack of excitement would always make his parents feel uncanny of actually having a casual talk with him. Though, it's different when it's with Kurapika. He knew the girl was smart but it never fails to amaze Kuroro how a 13-year-old like her could keep up with a 17-year-old like him who always talks about stuff which, probably, only men in their thirties would converse about.
He leaned on the wall near the open door of the room and listened.
"That's amazing Kura!" the woman exclaimed as she stood from the couch and hugged the girl who was sitting across her.
Kurapika hugged her back and smiled as she turned her attention to the man who was quietly sipping his coffee. She waited.
"I'm not saying that I'm against with the idea," he finally spoke. "But don't you think it's a little too early to get married? You're only 13."
Kurapika acquiesced. "We're not planning to get married right away. Hanzo has to pass the Hunter Exam first and wait till I turn 18 before we do that. It's just an early engagement.
He pondered for a bit and finally made up his mind. "If that's the case, then you have my full support."
"Thank you," she gave him a warm smile.
Kuroro was shocked. He couldn't believe what he just heard. It was already bad enough that she had to belong in their family because it prohibits him from loving her openly. And now, she's engaged to another guy. There's no way in hell would he let that happen. She was his and his alone.
He silently marched out of the house and when he came back; his clothes were drenched in blood. He didn't bother to change and went directly to her room. It all happened so fast. Even before she could react, he already had her pinned down on the bed. She was staggering to break free but he was too strong for her. He was able to undress her easily and used his mouth to savour every part of her body. He didn't wait long enough and he entered her as soon as he felt that she's ready. It was her first time; he knew it would hurt so he tried to be just a little gentle. Of course, that immoral act didn't stop overnight. It continued for the following 4 years.
Kuroro tried to shrug off the memory as he slouched on the sofa and focused his gaze on the ceiling. What was he supposed to do now? If he searched for her and did find her, there's no way she'd come with him without putting up a fight. Forcing her would be no good either. He'll just make her more aloof with him than she already was.
He closed his eyes and made a deep sigh.
"Forgive me . . . Kurapika."

Haha this chapter's crazy. Hanzo and Kurapika is just... LOL. I couldn't think of any character that's a bit close to Kurapika so I chose Hanzo instead since they were really friendly back in the Hunter Exam when they successfully survived the storm. xD So yeah. xD Haha.
I'm starting to run out of ideas! xD
