Confessions
------------------------------
"… I love you…" Neku said unconsciously, oblivious to the people around him.
Tears began to fall from Yuna's eyes, so gently as if trying not to be noticed. As she watched Neku sleep, she was crying quietly beside him, not because she was sad, but because she was happy, happy that she finally is sure of her feelings for him, and likewise.
Deep inside, Neku knew that he loves this black-haired girl, whom he knows since childhood, very deeply. Whatever he does he just can't get her out of his mind, but it's not like he didn't want to. Secretly, ever since they left each other, he passes time by thinking about her, and everytime it helps, it's what kept him running all this time, ever since the Game of course.
Eventually, Yuna drifted off to sleep by Neku's side, and quietly the night passed.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
*Yawn* the young girl stretched around and slowly remembered the events of the previous night. As she remembers, she starts to look for Neku, and notices he's still in front of her asleep, not looking any better, actually, he got worse.
Remembering Neku's unconscious confession last night, she starts to blush again.
'Now I'll have to really take care of him and stay by his side' Yuna thought, still getting used to the knowledge of knowing how she felt towards him.
------
Shiki cried as she looked over some things that Neku gave her. Each gift brought back a memory together with him. She knew deep down inside that she couldn't let go of him… but he gave her no choice. The thin girl adjusted her glasses as she tried to fix herself, but to no avail, she just cried harder as emotions that she has for him swept over her.
As tired as she felt from crying the whole night, she still couldn't sleep no matter how hard she tried, as she listened to the song "Break Even" by The Script, she just sat on her bed, still in her sleeping clothes, a thin big shirt and short shorts, she just sat there looking at her phone, where a picture of her and Neku on one of their dates was in.
She kept thinking what she did to make him leave, but it is just so hard… She hoped there was still a possibility… She only hoped…
------
Now Neku woke up, still feeling extremely weak from the fever, looked around, everything was so blurry, he couldn't remember anything so he just waited for things to adjust.
After few minutes, he started remembering, and he started seeing things clearly. He looks down at his bedside to see Yuna asleep beside him, 'I guess she fell asleep taking care of me' Neku thought as a warm smile formed on his face.
He carefully scrutinized her sleeping form, she looks beautiful, but now, in the early sunlight, she just looks so radiant, glowing with beauty. The past emotions that bugged him before was now clear, he quietly said to himself, "I love her…" then a series of mixed emotions came over to him.
He remembered the past memories he spent with her, treasuring each and everyone of them. 'Now I'll be treating her differently,' he thought to himself, unaware that the way he treats her know shows that he has feelings for her.
He quietly got out of his bed, resisting the urge to give her a kiss, and placed a blanket over her, staring at her for a few seconds, he went for the door, and whispered a soft, quiet "thank you". Even though he knew that he has a terribly high fever, he didn't want her to be affected, and burdened even, so he left.
------
The heartbroken girl finally fell asleep, but unwillingly. She didn't notice falling asleep, she was just too tired from all the crying. She hasn't eaten in a few days either. By now it was afternoon, then she gets a text message from one of her friends, named Daime, he is a tall, strong guy, athletic, and smart, basically he had it all, oh and he also likes Shiki secretly. He was asking her if she was fine and all, since news about her breakup with Neku kinda spreaded. So he thought this might be his chance to make his move, but only after she recovers from him. He bears a grudge on Neku though, for hurting Shiki.
He told her to go to the park, so they could talk privately, he's determined to help her through this. And of course he was sure she'd go, since they've been friends for a long time, and Neku didn't know about him because Shiki was afraid that he might get jealous, but all that's passed now.
A few minutes later, Shiki woke up, still a bit dizzy, she saw the text, got ready, took a bath, changed clothes, and went.
But actually Daime has something else in mind.
When Shiki came, "Daime?" sounding as if she was fine and everything, hoping he didn't know about Neku leaving her, because he'd hurt Neku if he did.
"Shiki come here… closer…" Daime said, a bit hidden from the open where no one can see him.
"Huh what's the---" Shiki yelled, she screamed but it was all useless.
