The first time he grieved.
Agony, pure and simple was a clear glass, half-empty filled with bourbon. He knew of the taste well; smooth, with a salty hint of a fine woman's blackened tears.
A familiar yet disenchanted weight rested on his shoulder, turning now he saw a boy spun of gold and emerald. "It will get better with time, Mamoru." Motoki presented him with a half-smile, a kind gesture for the corpse of a man sitting on his front porch. Patting him gently on the shoulder he left the shell some privacy as he reentered the house, savoring its warmth.
Time, Mamoru mused was an ill-fated mistress of life. It had never been a friend, rather a stranger hidden in a desolate alleyway, ready and awaiting to stab your essence out with the ugly truth.
Rubbing his puffy, tired eyes now he tried to calculate the truth in his left, methodical mind now.
If he dared to see, touch, burn deep within her now then Death would surly lick at her bones, sucking the quintessence bubbly sugariness, which he loved, right out of her.
Growling, he downed his liquid agony in one deep, quick gulp sans chaser; Time was an eagerly wicked mistress indeed.

An: Sorry, I've been playing opera music and classical all day hence angst. I'm going to try to get another chapter out before the end of the day if I'm not tired after doing some exercise and washing moi hair.
So news, one of my plants is budding, though it's not my Cherry Blossom so I'm pissed. But, my Cherry Blossom has changed colors and I was told that was a very good sign. So ya! I actually found myself talking to it too, lol. I've bonded with my twig. And my snowball tree is in route to my house as we speak!
Secluded Sapphire, Ummster, CharmedSerenity3, Roswellachick, Midori-kokoro, Mimi the Pop (Less smut, will try. I was just wondering cause it started going at a very steep decline as of lately and I have over a hundred people on this story on alert and favs so I wondering if the latest batch of stories was just… off in some way or something. But, thank you for your theory.), Mangamania, Flowerypetal (Glad I could keep you in the loop! Did you like it? I was excited when I saw Victoria's leap and then so disheartened when I was reminded it wasn't Rachelle; I'm going to miss her so much in eclipse. She's such a beautiful person inside and out, le sigh), and Beediddy (fake naughty lol) thank you for your kind reviews!
