It had been 2 weeks since Rin and Nitori's death. While Gou was still depressed, she was able to take care of herself now. Amakata would teach her alone, and Mikoshiba would watch over her when she'd eat and would help her exercise. Despite her health increasing, another person's health started to decrease.

"No! No! Don't hurt me, please!" A scream was heard in the night.

Haruka, Makoto, and Rei ran to Nagisa's room, bursting in to see Nagisa lying on the ground. He was kicking and screaming while ripping his hair out. He was crying hysterically. Makoto ran by his side and held his hands, keeping him from pulling his hair out while Rei tried to soothe him. "Nobody's going to hurt you, Nagisa." Rei reassured him.

Nagisa was shaking, but was finally stable enough to be released. "What happened?" Haruka asked him, rattling the door handle, getting ready to go out. "Once you tell me, I'll go get you some water, okay?"

Nagisa nodded, pink eyes darting around the room. "I-I had a nightmare. Someone was trying to kill me." He shuddered, wrapping his arms around himself. Makoto noticed he was in a cold sweat.

"Who?" Rei asked, squeezing his hand.

Nagisa hesitated before speaking. He was looking at the floor, now fiddling with his fingers. "It was you, Rei. You were trying to hit me, and I kept fighting, but you were screaming at me and wouldn't let me go. You were hitting me with a book and you took my head and-" He broke down and started to cry again.

Rei hugged the blond. "I'd never hurt you, Nagisa. You know that." He said, trying to make Nagisa stop crying.

Makoto gestured to Haruka, who nodded and left to go to the kitchen and get Nagisa something to drink while the other two were calming him down.

When Haruka entered the cafeteria, he glanced over at the table where he and his friends would meet at every morning. He saw Rin and Nitori's chair, expecting to see the Samezuka students' jackets in their respective chairs. Instead, he only saw Nitori's. Haruka grabbed a bottle of water and passed by Gou's room. He peaked his head in to see Gou lying on the ground, wearing her deceased brother's jacket.

The jacket was too big on her, but she had it tightly wrapped around her. She was smiling slightly, and hugged herself in her sleep. Haruka normally would have asked for it back out of respect, but he knew she was holding onto what bit of her big brother was left. He sighed and closed the door and walked to Nagisa's room.

Nagisa was smiling again, and Rei was joking around with him. Makoto was sitting against the wall, dozing off. Haruka smiled at seeing Nagisa happy. "Here." He tossed the bottle to Nagisa. He walked over to Makoto and shook him. "Wake up, Mako." He whispered.

Makoto opened his eyes and yawned. "H-huh? Oh, I fell asleep." He frowned.

"We're gonna go back to our rooms now, Nagisa. Is that okay?" Haruka said.

Naisa nodded. "Y-yeah. Thanks for helping me." He said before lying on his makeshift bed.

Rei looked at Nagisa before he left with only one thought in mind.

Why would he think I'd kill him?

The next morning, 6 people met in the cafeteria. Mikoshiba walked in holding Rin's jacket. He placed it back in Rin's chair, sighing. "I have to take it from her nearly every morning now. She's in her room, still. I'll probably go take her something to exercise with today." Mikoshiba pulled his chair out and sat in it.

Amakata walked into the room. Her hair was messy, and a book was in her right hand. "I've been reading about her depression in some books I found in the library. It says she'll move on eventually, but it'll take a while." The teacher looked at the boys, who were dirty. "Hm? Haven't you guys been swimming? It looks like you haven't been in water since we were locked in here!"

Rei adjusted his glasses. "Well, no." He shifted uncomfortably.

"We don't want to go back in there since Rin and Nitori died. It just hurts too much." Mikoshiba answered, making the others realize he was the only remaining Samezuka student.

Makoto nodded. "We'll go eventually, but even stepping one foot into the gym makes us feel nauseous. Mikoshiba goes in just to get some equipment for exercise. That's about it."

Amakata sighed. "Well….fine. Mikoshiba, go help Gou. I have to teach the others. I'll get to you later, and then Gou." She placed her book down on the table. Mikoshiba nodded and left. She glanced at the 4 boys. "Now, even though we're trapped in here, your education will still continue." She giggled. The boys groaned.

Mikoshiba knocked on Gou's door before entering. "Kou? Miss Amakata wanted me to help you exercise before she goes through your lessons." He walked in with his jump rope.

Gou was sitting at a desk, looking at a picture on her phone. Mikoshiba pulled a chair up to her to look at it. He could see Rin and Nitori on the screen wearing maid's dresses. Mikoshiba couldn't help but smile. "Ah yes, the maid café!" He laughed loudly. "Rin was so embarrassed when you showed up!"

Gou laughed, but held back a sob. It was hard to take in it all. She knew she'd never accept the fact that Rin was dead. She wiped her red eyes. "Hey Sei…could you do something for me?"

Mikoshiba glanced at his love. "Yes?"

Mikoshiba walked into the cafeteria, and Miss Amakata grabbed her book, after boring the Iwatobi boys to near death, walked to Mikoshiba. "How's Gou?" She asked.

"She just wants some privacy." The red head stopped the woman from leaving the cafeteria. "She said you could come in about 30 minutes."

"Why?"

Mikoshiba ran a hand through his hair. "She found a picture of Rin and Nitori. She's having a break down right now. She asked me to leave and to tell you to come to her room in about 30 minutes." He glanced around the cafeteria. Nagisa was resting his head on Rei's shoulder, who in turn also used his head as a pillow. Makoto and Haruka were writing something.

Amakata groaned. "I don't want her to procrastinate on her lessons." The teacher walked back over to the chair she was sitting in and sat.

Mikoshiba saw Rin and Nitori's jackets sitting on their chairs. Instantly, he could feel the hairs on his neck rise. It hit him.

He'd never see Rin and Nitori again.

Nobody would remember them.

Nobody would know what great friends they were.

He sighed deeply and sat down next to Haruka. Haruka looked up from the paper. "Is Gou okay?"

The captain nodded. "She's been going through a lot. I can't blame her." He looked at the black covering the window. There was a small light shining through it. The sun, the outside world, was on the outside.

"How are you so composed?" Makoto set a pen down, stood up, and stretched.

Mikoshiba shrugged. "It doesn't seem real to me. It seems like a dream." He said, resting his head on the table. He didn't want to admit that he had been crying himself to sleep every night since they had died. He didn't know it, but he had dozed off after answering Makoto with Rin and Nitori's dead faces burned into his head.

Miss Amakata shook Mikoshiba lightly. "Wake up. Would you go with me to teach Gou?"

Mikoshiba looked up, rubbing his eyes. "Hm? Oh…Sure." He stood up, nearly falling over. He was a heavy sleeper, something Gou often teased him about. "I hope Kou's better."

The brunette smiled. "I'm sure she is."

The teacher and swim captain said goodbye to the Iwatobi boys and head out to Gou's room.

An hour after they had left, Nagisa looked around in the hall. "They're not back yet. Miss Amakata's lessons only last 30 minutes." He was confused. Maybe Gou was having trouble.

"I'm sure it's no big deal." Rei reassured him.

"But it's been 30 minutes!" The blond started to walk down the hall.

The blue-haired teen ran after the older boy. "Wait! Where are you going?" Rei grabbed his arm.

Nagisa continued to walk. "I'm going to go see Gou~" He giggled. "Maybe Miss Amakata's yelling at her for getting a problem wrong!"

Rei groaned and walked with him.

Makoto, who had been watching the entire time, turned around in his chair to see his friends' bickering. He looked over to Haruka, who seemed bored out of his mind. "How can you be so calm around them?" He sighed. He couldn't help but smile after they left.

"I ignore them." Haruka said bluntly. Makoto wondered if he was the only sane one of the group.

He probably was.

Makoto laughed. "You know, there's something I've been meaning to tell you."

"Yes?" Haruka looked bored, as usual.

"I-" Makoto was cut off by a scream. Not just anybody's scream, but Nagisa's scream. The two shot out of their chairs and ran to the hallway leading to Gou's room.

Nagisa was on his knees on the floor, screaming and crying. Rei was next to him, on lying on the ground. He had fainted. Nagisa's pink eyes were filled with terror and fear and were staring directly into the room.

Makoto felt a pang in his stomach. He felt nauseous. He shakily held onto the wall and looked into the room.

Hanging off the lights was a jump rope. At the end there was a makeshift noose. The bottom had been cut, and Gou's body lay on the ground, neck purple and swollen. Mikoshiba lay next to her with a large gash across his neck. A pool of blood soaked his clothes and mixed in with his hair.

The two had killed themselves.

Makoto felt dizzy all of a sudden. Amakata was sitting on a desk, eyes wide and tears streaming down her face. "I'm sorry….I'm sorry….." She cried softly.

As Haruka walked in, he gasped, but noticed a detail about the two's bodies.

They were holding hands.
