"I'll be away for little while, so wait for me.." young Suzaku hold Lelouch face in his palms.

The raven haired foreigner nodded sadly, clear tears fall from his violet eyes. "..Then I'll waiting for you…"

"I'll definitely come back.."

That single promise had drive Suzaku return to the top of mountain after leaving for nearly 25 years ago. It was snowing heavily when Suzaku parted with his beloved, a beauty with name of Lelouch. They moved to the remote place because the folk doing means thing to them. Suzaku wanted to make their live better so he's been searching places that could accept their relationship as well as Lelouch's inheritance. And when he finally find another place, the time has long forgone.

Tired green eyes gave fond spark as he wondering if Lelouch still stay in the house, even Suzaku never send message nor appear. He was okay that Lelouch leave and move on with another. He would never able to blame the British boy, if anything he wished for Lelouch's happiness. The higher he climb, the clearer Suzaku remember of the day when they were still young and fool.

After days of climbing and searching to the place where their humble house should be, Suzaku finally found the place again. He was relieved that the snow ceased and leave the place like ones inside fairytale. Piles of snow scattered and the bright but not blinding light glitter the place in soft sparks. The house itself looked just like exact when Suzaku ever remember.

Slowly approaching the pitiful house, Suzaku find the place empty of Lelouch. The meals on the small table were untouched and cold, Suzaku came into thinking that Lelouch was somewhere around the small lot.

"Lelouch! Lelouch!" Suzaku frantically search for his love.

"Lelouch!" throwing his backpack, Suzaku ran all the while screaming Lelouch's name.

But the raven haired boy was nowhere to be found. Suzaku afraid that Lelouch accidentally hurting or injured himself in the lake. Move further into the usually frozen lake, Suzaku edging to desperate when there's not single clue of where Lelouch is.

Tiring to his core, Suzaku's unsteady step stumbling and causing him to fall in a heap in his face. Cleaning the snow from his face as well some in the solid surface, Suzaku saw something vague beneath him. Quickly, he brushed more snow beneath him and his heart ache at the sight.

There, lay peacefully amidst the eternal white was none other than Lelouch. His lids closed as if in heavy slumber, raven hair framed his sharp yet delicate face, contrasting with his now white skin. But the pale beauty was no longer his to claim, the boy now belonged to the goddess of the frozen lake.

"Lelouch…" the wrinkled mouth quivering in broken sadness. Muttering guilty apologize over and over but it has no use for the Raven haired boy that waiting inside the lake. Lelouch has keep his promise, to stay in the place and remain the same.
