Hello everyone!

So this is my second fic in this style, being the first one If I Was Empty Grey, You Were Bloody Red (Jack&Lacie).

Please, if you enjoyed this one or have something to point out leave a review, it'd make me very happy! - and it's X-mas time!~

This one is dedicated to singing otaku and to all of you who loves Leo and Elliot.

WARNING: This focuses the scene where Vincent cut Leo's hair, Retrace 61, Demios.

I'm sorry if some silly mistake escaped me, I gave my best!

Disclaimer: Pandora Hearts doesn't belong to me, though this fic is mine and I don't take any profits from it.

Let Me Go

.

You know, I'm not afraid of the darkness since I've been there countless times, mingling with it.

No, that's not the question , the point.

The point is now you're no longer here, you're no longer anywhere.

I can no longer find you in my darkness nor dare to share your razoring light with you.

I'm all alone again.

It's so cold in this emptiness that I can't even move, I can't even escape.

And, this time, I also won't be allowed to hide my eyes trying to pretend that reality isn't reality - Vincent won't let me do so.

I ordered him not to since the only place I wish I could hide in forever is the shadows of your wonderful library.

Of your mind, of your body, of your soul, of your essence.

Forever, Elliot.

That's the only thing I can think about right now, while my ebony hair's falling down to the floor.

It's falling like your blood did, staining merciless every place it touches. But they can't be compared, there's no way they can.

Your beauty is yours and yours alone, nothing can surpass it, nothing can approach it. Neither myself.

Still, I strive desperatly for it. I've always did.

As my hair somehow becomes red and fluid at my eyes - see how helplessly I try to reach you? - , I suddenly notice that Vincent's scissors are also beautiful in its specific way.

I could use those scissors.

I could use them to meet you again before my sanity fades away and my heart goes berserk from the grief, the massive grief, of being in a world without you.

I know this will consume me soon, it is just a matter of time, so I better run before I can no longer do more than scream.

You know I can degenerate to it and passively let my core be eaten, I know you do.

You've seen it. You've saved me.

So let me eagerly run to you now because I can't hang in here like that. I'm not as strong as you, I'm not soothing and noble like you.

That is why I need you. Please, let my absence be filled with your existence.

Let me be the darkness that's necessary for your fire to ignite and burst out, lightning up everything.

Please... please... let me go, let me reach you.

Let me do that, master. Let me touch you, Elliot.

Elliot. Elliot.

Elliot! Elliot!

Elliot!...

It hurts.

It hurts so, so much, Elliot...
