Drabble 5: Better as a Memory

AShura stood beside Fai's bed, watching the younger man sleep. He smiled gently as Fai mumbled something under his breath. It would happen soon: the day Fai would have to kill him. Ashura felt it.

He felt a pain in his heart, and he reached over and brushed a lock of hair out of Fai's face. This poor man... who had already gone through so much is in short life.

"Soon, you will say goodbye to me Fai," Ashura said softly, "One day you'll find someone, and right away you'll know it's true. He'll love you better than I could ever. I'm only better as a memory, my little one. Nothing more."

Ashura leaned over, placing a gentle kiss on Fai's head, before turning a creeping out of the room, and the castle.
