(Dying of Love)

Far away from you

Momiji I'm sorry, I think I'm leaving you now. I never said everything I wanted to say. Please understand; I don't hate you! Please hear my cries and know that I love you. When I ran, I didn't want us to be apart like we are now. I want to come back and let you hold me and make me laugh. I want to make and share more memories together. I want to go places with you, just me and you again! This is my fault. You were trying to save me from falling too far. It's my fault, it's MY fault! Forgive me, hear me, save me!

Momiji pushed through the crowds of people. He didn't care who he was elbowing, grabbing and pushing. He didn't care if someone hugged him and he transformed. He had to know if it was her. When he made it to the front of the crowd, his worst fears were realised. It WAS her, lying there in her own blood, her body was twisted and resting in an odd way on the curb. Her eyes were closed as if she was sleeping. She no longer looked beautiful. She looked ugly and monstrous. Momiji felt bitter guilt building up inside him. It was his fault. She could die and it would be his entire fault! Momiji lost the will to live in that moment. (He didn't even fight back when the ambulance came and the paramedics sent him away)

he just sat on the curb until the crowds cleared and he was alone in the almost empty street.

He didn't know how long he had waited. It was as if he was expecting everything to rewind. For her to come running around the corner, hair flying every where, laughing happily. Then she would come and take his hand and pull him along the street until it was time for them to part and walk their separate ways.

Momiji! Momiji! I'm sure I saw you, coming around the corner! Just before it all went black! No! It can't end like this… Please don't let it end like this! Momiji, Come for me, Bring me back!! BRING ME BACK!!!

Momiji awoke the next morning on the couch at Shigure's house. He didn't even remember what had happened or how he had arrived there. Convinced he had accidentally drunk sake or something (it would explain the memory loss). He gave up on trying to remember what happened and went into the kitchen to see what the delicious smell was. Tohru was standing at the stove boiling noodles and humming to herself. She hadn't noticed him come in so he said "Good morning, Tohru!" Tohru jumped but managed to compose herself; smiled and said "Good morning Momiji! How do you feel today? Whatever happened to you last night?"

Then he remembered, the accident, Hinata, everything. "I need to get to the hospital!" he said grabbing his coat and running out of the front door.

Momiji ran all the way to the hospital wearing his pyjamas and his coat. Big mistake! It was a seriously cold, wet spring morning. But he NEEDED to see her; the ambulance must have brought her here, right? He pelted to the automatic doors where he slowed to a walk. As soon as he was through the doors he went to the front desk where a female receptionist was sitting behind a computer screen. "Excuse me, I'm looking for a patient, her name is Hinata Sonayumi" He said politely.

"Oh right, I guess news spreads fast around here. Go ahead, she's in room 2 on the top floor." Said the woman clearly, pointing at the elevator to the left of the desk. "Arigato!" he said hurriedly as he sprinted to the elevator.

Momiji come please! Let me see you again. Even if you hate me for what I did! I want to see your face for one last time. Please come! I think I'm going to die! I'm scared to go without telling you that...that...I …

Momiji half-ran half-walked down the corridor. Until he reached room number 2. There were cuddly toys and flowers all around the door. She definitely had more friends than she thought! He moved one particularly big pink teddy so he could read the sign on the door;

Hinata Sonayumi

Long-term patient

Dr. Hinasawa

SO this was definitely her room. He took a deep-breath and entered. What he saw shocked him. Hinata was lying in the bed; flat on her back, tubes sticking out of her, computer screens everywhere and doctors giving her injections and other medicines. One doctor spotted him and said "Are you Momiji Sohma?" said the doctor giving the bunny-pyjama clad 16 year-old a weird look. "Yes… how'd you..." said Momiji shocked that the man knew who he was. " Some girls who came to visit her before said that you would turn up sooner or later." Said the doctor in a matter-of-fact tone,

"Well she's in a coma, so her body's gone to sleep in other words. I hate to say it, but even if she does wake up she will probably not survive, her legs are badly broken. She took quite a hit, She's lucky to even be alive" Momiji was horrified. How could he have caused so much damage?

Momiji, Are you here? I can feel it you here aren't you? You came! Arigato! Stay with me! Don't go, please, don't go…

A/N So will Hinata survive? Sorry she has the same name as Hiro's lil' sister! I didn't realise! STUPID! -Bashes head against computer desk- Will someone please review this story!? I don't care whether it's a good review or a bad one! Just review! Sorry to be so grumped: Madmonster24
