Honoka: Hi everyone! Kitten-chan does not own Love Live! Review if possible please?!
It had been two weeks since Maki and Hanayo had gotten together. Erena and Anju had been happy for the two, Anju especially. But one day when Erena came home, the dorm room was strangely quiet. Not liking the silence, which screamed something was wrong, Erena went into her room and changed, then went up to Anju's room. Anju had gotten home before her, she knew it because she saw Anju walk into the building when she went to visit Eli for some help on a math problem. Erena slowly creeped up towards Anju's room, pausing when she heard the sound of the sixteen year old crying quietly.
"Anju?" She asked simply. Anju snapped up to look at her, tears in her eyes.
"Erena-chan," She barely formed the word out. Erena ran to Anju and embraced her childhood friend, holding the girl in her arms as Anju cried, not even minding that her own shirt was getting soaked. It was for Anju, and she loved Anju more than anything, and she hated to see Anju cry.
"Shh... Anju, everything will be okay," Erena muttered, drawing circles on Anju's back like the girl was a small child. When Anju finally calmed down Erena pulled away, keeping within hugging distance of the girl.
"What's wrong?" Erena asked, wiping some of Anju's tears with her thumb.
"M-M-My s-sister, s-s-she d-d-d-died!" Anju starting crying again. Anju didn't really want to tell anyone about her family issues, but Erena was special. Erena was her love, her life. Her sister's death hit her like a brick in the chest, at first she couldn't believe, they had been joking right? The minute she called her beloved sister, she would answer and the two would joke and play around and smile. But she tried calling her sister, thirteen times, and sent tons of texts, but none of them were even read.
"Anju, I'm sorry I asked, and I'm so sorry, so so sorry," Erena apologized, she felt bad for asking now. Erena hugged Anju again, tightening the hold on Anju this time.
"Is there anything you need me to do for you?" Erena asked after a while.
"Hold me, and stay with me please, I don't want to be alone," Anju admitted, letting Erena hold her more.
"I won't leave you ever," Erena admitted, blushing a bit with how that sounded.
"Are you trying to make me feel better?" Anju sniffled, her voice hoarse from crying.
"Maybe," Erena forgot about the embarrassment temporarily. Erena hugged Anju more. Eventually Erena's back was starting to hurt so she laid down on her back, Anju climbing onto her. Normally Erena would get mad, but with such excruciating circumstances it was fine.
"Anju, do you want some dinner?" Erena asked, Anju stifling and muttering a no. Erena decided she wouldn't eat anything either. Erena knew Anju's sister, Yukiho Yuuki, was younger than both Erena and Anju by three years, but she was or had been studying abroad in Russia.
"Anju?" Erena asked timidly. She decided she might as well confess her love to Anju now, since the girl may forget it later.
"I love you," Erena told her. When Anju looked up she kissed the girl's temple.
"I love you too Erena-chan," Anju replied simply, cuddling more into Erena.
"No, no, I love you more than a friend, you're my world Anju, I hate seeing you like this, I love you more than anything," Erena blushed, Anju tear stained face lighting up with a small blush as well.
"Erena-chan I love you like that too," Anju admitted, burying her face into Erena more. Erena blushed, then titled Anju's head up to give the girl a sweet kiss.
"I love you, and I know this is hard, but Anju, let's get through this together."
