He is my Knight, and I am his Prince

.:Chapter Seven:.

"Soubi!" Ukita yelled.

He blinked from his day dream and looked at Ukita. They had gone out on a sunny Saturday afternoon for ice cream. Soubi had seen a little boy with black that really looked like Ukita's brother. That's what he always called him, because he kept forgetting what his name was.

"Are you okay? You just spaced out…" Ukita asked, with a worried expression on his face. Soubi just smiled at her with a careful grin.

"Oh yes, I am okay, Ukita. Something just came across is all, nothing much," Soubi answered. He held her hand tightly, in an almost comforting way and started to walk along the way they were doing before he had "seen" Ukita's brother.

The walk to the Aoyagi manor was, again, shorter than it was when they had left to go to the grocery center. Ukita's parents seemed to never be home whenever he came to pick her up. He only had seen them once. And so they were there already, almost right after they left.

"You'll come again, right?" Ukita asked. She sounded hopeful.

"Of course. I love you," Soubi stated like it was a fact. And to him, it was.

"I love you too," Ukita said, and lost no time and hugging him. He hugged her back.

Then he pulled her back and gently pressed his lips unto hers. Ukita held the kiss until Soubi decided to pull away..

He waved at her, and she waved back. Then he departed from the household, leaving Ukita in daze. Ironically, it started to rain before Soubi left the yard.

He felt crappy.

Just like how you feel when you get wet.

Or when you cry.

Atleast that's what Soubi felt like when he cried.

But he mostly felt crappy for what he was going to do to Ukita. He was going to leave her. And he had to because of his parents. Right after he had taken her ears, and actually committed to the relationship.

"I'm sorry, Ukita…"


Dreams. Dreams of Ukita and Soubi together over and over. Soubi had been dreaming these dreams a few weeks after he had left her. The dreams went away when he had met Ritsuka, until Ritsuka had asked Soubi about it, and when he finally found out Ritsuka was Ukita's brother. Ukita's little brother… The way Ritsuka took the news of Ukita and Soubi being together was not what Soubi expected. Ritsuka practically shunned him; whenever Soubi came to the house, Ritsuka wouldn't even go down the stairs to see him, or let him in his room.

It had been days now. 5 days to be exact.

In fact, Soubi had a growing love for Ritsuka. Ritsuka had been acting like he didn't like him like that, so he never brought it up. When he found out that Ukita died, Soubi felt as if a hole was just blown in him. He should have hated Ritsuka for the loss but Ritsuka was trying to deal with the loss as well. He wanted to believe Ritsuka, but it was hard to trust people. Atleast, now it was.

Soubi wanted to marry Ukita. He loved Ukita. And now she's dead.

And gone forever…

The promise was broken. Soubi knew that he should know better than that.

But Soubi felt really hurt, like Ukita had just taken his life with her. But he loves someone else, and someone that loved Ukita as much as him. Soubi was going to be here to help that person get through it, and at the same time help himself.

Ritsuka…please don't hate me.

.I love you.


It was lunch time in the Aoyagi manor. Ritsuka was not hungy at all. He felt hurt all over. He didn't want to eat, or to talk to anyone. Silence was practically his friend now, and he knew it.

"Ritsuka, why aren't you eating?" Ritsuka's mom asked.

"I'm not hungry," Ritsuka answered, setting his fork and knife down on his plate.

"I'm not excusing you from the table. You are going to eat; you haven't eaten in days now," Ritsuka's mom said stubbornly.

Ritsuka angrily picked up his fork and knife and tried to fit more food in his stomach.

"By the way, where is Ukita, it's been more than 2 weeks and I want her to come home now. What is her friend's number?" Ritsuka's mom said.

"I don't know," Ritsuka said stubbornly. He really didn't want to talk.

"I know you know, so tell me or I forbid you from leaving the manor," Ritsuka's mom yelled at him.

"I don't know where she is so leave me the fuck alone!" Ritsuka yelled and got up only to run up the stairs.

Ritsuka's mom lost no time in taking her dress shoes off and ran up the stairs after him. She practically pushed the door open. Then he stopped dead in her tracks at the sight in front of her.

Ritsuka was on the bed crying, his blanket enwrapping him; his head on his pillow. It had been years that Ritsuka's mom saw Ritsuka like this. She walked over to him and embraced. him tightly.

"Ritsuka, baby, please don't cry…please don't cry…" Ritsuka's mom said, finding herself crying.

They stayed like that for a few hours until, Ritsuka's mom let go of Ritsuka and looked him in the eyes.

"Why are you crying hun?" She finally asked.

"You'll…You'll never love me anymore if I tell you!" Ritsuka yelled, hugging his knees. He was dangerously close to crying once more.

"Of course I will. I will always love you Ritsuka," his mother tried to assure. She wanted to know what he did, and why he cried.

They sat there for a long time, Ritsuka not saying anything.

"Is it about Soubi?" she tried to ask. She noticed that Ritsuka never went downstairs when Soubi was around.

"No! It's nothing about Soubi!" Ritsuka almost yelled. Ritsuka hated that Soubi would show up wherever he was, even if Soubi wasn't actually there in the first place.

"Then what is it, Ritsuka? You've been acting weird for a long time and I really want to help you," She said.

They sat there for a while once more. Ritsuka looked sadly at the door while his mom focused on him.

"Hun…please tell me…" She pleaded. She really hated seeing him like this, and she knew it was really unhealthy. Ritsuka knew it was unhealthy. Soubi knew it was unhealthy.

Ritsuka immediately broke down crying. "I miss Ukita so much!"

He hugged his legs and cryed and sobbed. All Ritsuka's mother could do was watch. She didn't understand.

"…Mom! I….I.." Ritsuka started.

"What? What happened?" She asked, now worried.

"I killed her!"


"Chibi-Ritsuka!" Ukita yelled.

They were on a hill with a lot of flowers just a little away from the Aoyagi manor.

"Yes, Oniisama?" Ritsuka asked. He looked up at her with hopeful eyes.

"If I died, would you cremate me, or hold a funeral?"

The question came out of no where and it confused Ritsuka.

"I dunno. What's a cremate?" Ritsuka asked.

"It means to burn my body into little itty-bitty parts!" Ukita answered, "I learned that word from my teacher!"

Ritsuka immediately flinched. He didn't like that description at all. He definitely didn't want to burn Ukita into little itty-bitty pieces.

"I will have a funeral for you. I don't want to burn you," Ritsuka said, worry written in his expression. Ukita immediately hugged his small form.

"Don't worry, it's not like I'm going to die anytime soon," She whispered comfortingly, "That will take a bigillion years, okay?"

Ritsuka nodded and hugged her back.

"What about you, Oniisama?"

"Me what?"

He blinked like he was surprised at her question, and then smiled.

"Will you cremate me, or hold a funeral for me?"

"I will hold a funeral for you of course! Duh!" She said almost like she was hurt.

It was his turn to hug her back.

"Silly! I won't die in bigillion years, okay?" He said while laughing.

She smiled at him and hugged him back.

"Of course you won't die, 'cause God won't let you leave me down here!" Ukita said playfully while hitting his shoulder.

"Yea, and God won't let you leave me down here, either!" Ritsuka said.

At the time, he didn't know he was dreadfully wrong.

Or that he knew that she was going to die at his own hands.

And her own will.
