P.S. This story start's with Tadase's POV. I'll change it to Amu's with a line like…
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
You know, like her hair clips. So ya ^ if you see words in between those kinds of lines, it's Amu's POV… I'll put a bolded A at the top before the words anyway, just so you know. :)
The rain is pounding against the glass of the Royal Garden loudly. I don't even really notice much else right now. Do I even have a pulse? No… No, it doesn't matter.
I lost everything. I lost it. I lost what I love… The one thing that I cared about the most, more than I have ever cared for something…
But it's not so much… But rather…
Who.
Broken, this fragile thing now… And I can't, I can't pick up the pieces…
I faintly hear the school bell ring, signifying it is time to go home. Since I heard the so-called 'news' this morning, I have been in here all day. Yes, I, Tadase Hotori, cut class. I stood up and grabbed my bag half-heartedly and walked down the stairs and to the door. I walked out and headed down the pathway leading to the front gate.
I merged in with the crowd of students who suddenly silenced themselves as they saw my cold, dark expression, my tear-stained cheeks and bloodshot eyes.
And I've thrown my words all around, but I can't, I can't give you a reason…
I didn't even need to look; I could feel their burning stares on me. I knew what they were thinking. I didn't care.
Then I heard it. It was so faint, so far away, but I heard it. I stopped and listened.
Nothing.
I feel so broken up…
I shook my head and continued my walk home; I must have imagined it. She wouldn't call out to me. She would only call out to him…
Her love.
Tsukiyomi Ikuto.
The one I love. The one I hate. My onii-tan, whom I miss being with as a brother… But whom I am angry for as well. For the past. And for the present.
For stealing my love.
For stealing Hinamori Amu.
And I give up…
I heard her calling my name again, and I growled, turned around and looked at her, and I froze when I saw Ikuto following her, close behind, both with scared looks on their faces. I clenched my teeth and glared at them.
"What do you want with me?! You!" I turned to Amu with cold, hurt eyes and she stepped back. "Haven't you hurt me enough?! Haven't you broken my heart into enough pieces by being with him! And you!!" I turned to my older brother. The one I looked up to and trusted.
Just wanna tell you so you know…
"… You knew. You knew, that she was EVERYTHING TO ME!"
Amu's eyes widened and she gasped. I looked at her, tears beginning to stream down my face.
"I never loved Amulet Heart! But I guess… You never loved me."
I stared at her for a while until I saw lights coming from my left. I heard Amu and Ikuto scream at me, trying to get me to move, but I didn't know what was going on. I turned and saw a large ceme heading towards me and I froze, knowing that either way… I would not be able to get away in time.
HERE I GO! SCREAM MY LUNGS OUT, AND TRY TO GET TO YOU!
I turned to Amu as it was five feet away and closed my eyes tightly.
"I LOVE YOU AMU-CHAN!"
YOU ARE MY ONLY ONE, AND I LET GO… CUZ THERE'S JUST NO ONE…
THAT GETS ME LIKE YOU DO…
YOU ARE MY ONLY, MY ONLY ONE…
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
A!
I screamed as I saw the ceme bore towards him, and tried to get his attention. He turned and froze, his eyes widening in fear. He turned back to me as it neared, trying its best to stop, and he closed his eyes, his tears mixing in with the rain on his face as he screamed out his last words.
"I LOVE YOU AMU-CHAN!"
Those words played over in my head again and again. Not just the 'I love you' but…
He had called me Amu-chan.
Made my mistakes, let you down…
The ceme hit him and I heard a sickening thump as it did so. I covered my mouth in my shock, tears rising to my eyes as the ceme finally was able to stop… I saw the body of one of my closest friends lying on the ground before it, bones sticking out of his skin, his head cracked open… And his face…
His face was completely destroyed.
And I can't… I can't hold on for too long…
I ran to him and fell to my knees at his side, Ikuto frozen on his spot at the sidewalk. The driver came out of the ceme and ran to me, his eyes full of tears, wide and scared, trying to say it was an accident and he couldn't see because of the storm.
I didn't care.
I just wanted Tadase back.
I wanted my prince back.
No… I wanted my king back.
I ran my whole life in the ground…
And I can't… I can't get up when you're gone…
I can't feel my legs. My heart feels like it is going to pound out of my chest, and I can hardly breathe because of all of my crying. I can't believe it. I won't believe it.
Tadase is not dead.
He can't be.
A 13-year-old innocent boy like him, can't die!!
Somethin's breakin up…
I feel like givin' up…
I won't walk out until you know…
I looked at his cut and bleeding face and continued to cry as the driver called the hospital and called for an ambulance, explaining what happened with a frantic tone. My tears fell onto his cut lips as I closed my eyes, unable to look at him, but not wanting to leave him.
I heard a small sound from beneath me and I opened my eyes, and saw his lips move. His chest began to slowly take deeper breaths, and his fingers and feet twitched a bit. His lips moved again and a small sound came from them and his eyes scrunched up a little, causing me to look at him wide-eyed with hope as tears spilled from my eyes.
"Tadase?! Tadase, wake up! It's me! It's Amu-chan! Please! Wake up!!"
Tadase's eyes opened immediately after I spoke and he looked up at me with a tired look, and a small smile, as big as he could muster, crawled onto his face.
"Ja ne… A-amu… Chan-n…"
I looked at him sadly as he lay there, our eyes locked intensely.
"Tadase…"
I closed my eyes and started to sing a song I remembered from a long time ago; one that he told me about. I remember what he had said to me- I still find it funny.
"If I ever get a girlfriend, I want this to be our song. I don't know why, but it just makes me happy when I hear it. I hope she will feel the same."
"Here I go… Scream my lungs out, and try to get to you… You are my only one…"
His eyes widened as I sang the song he loved; and to him.
"I let go… But there's just no one, that gets me like you do… You are my only, my only one…"
I stopped singing and looked at him and he was looking up at me with shocked and happy eyes. I felt something on my shoulder and I looked up and saw a doctor, and I realized the ambulance had come. I moved away so they could put Tadase onto the stretcher and into the ambulance.
The one doctor came up next to me as the others handled everything.
"You know, he is lucky. That kind of hit would normally kill a grown man."
I blinked at Tadase was put into the back of the ambulance and the doors closed and they drove away. I felt someone take my hand and I looked up to see Ikuto, a sad look in his eyes.
"I'm so very sorry this had to happen, Amu."
I looked at the ground then smiled.
"You know…"
He stared at me until I looked up at him and smiled half-heartedly.
"I think he's gonna be okay."
Here I go… So dishonestly… Leave a note… For you my only one…
Ikuto leaned forwards and placed his lips on mine sweetly. I expected heat to rise to my cheeks, my heart to pound, my adrenaline to rush, the fireworks go off in my mind… But none of that happened… Why?
And I know… You can see right through me…
So let me go… And you will find someone…
I gently pushed Ikuto back and he blinked at me as I looked at him sadly.
"Ikuto I'm sorry."
"For what?"
"I need to know if Tadase is okay. I need to hear that he will live."
Ikuto stood up straight and his expression looked sad. He gave me a weak smile and kissed my forehead.
"Tadase was right… I knew how much you meant to him. Go… My brother needs you."
I looked up at Ikuto with joyful eyes. I hugged him and then turned to ran, chara-changing with her and began to fly to the hospital as Ikuto watched me.
HERE I GO! SCREAM MY LUNGS OUT, AND TRY TO GET TO YOU!
YOU ARE MY ONLY ONE! AND I LET GO, BUT THERE'S JUST NO ONE!
NO ONE LIKE YOU!
YOU ARE MY ONLY, MY ONLY ONE!
MY ONLY ONE!
MY ONLY…
…One.
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
T!!
I lay in my bed, wishing Amu were here. I wonder what I look like right now? And I would kill for a drink of water. My mouth is burning. Ugh. What is that taste? Augh. Gross. I heard the nurses outside begin fighting with someone, and then suddenly the door slam open.
I turned and saw Amu staring back at me. My eyes widened as I tried to sit up, but pain shot through my body at the sudden movement and I screamed and fell back down to the bed.
She looked at me sadly and I stared back at her, slightly upset as well.
"Amu-cha…. Hinamori-san, you should go… I am going into plastics soon…."
I felt tears sting my eyes but I tried to held them back.
"They have to remake my face completely."
Amu stepped towards me slowly and placed a hand over my healthy one and I didn't turn to her.
"Tadase-kun…"
"Why aren't you calling me Amu-chan anymore? I liked it…"
"Because you are with nii-san!"
Her hand left it's presence over mine and my hand shivered as the cold air pricked it. I didn't dare turn to her.
"Because you are with nii-san… I thought I was going to die… I wanted you to hear me say it once… That's all that you wanted from me, right? Was to hear your given name? Yuiki and Mashiro-san always told me how you were so mad at me for not calling you by your given name. So I wanted to grant your wish. That's all you wanted from me… Was to hear your name…"
I turned to her, tears now pouring out of my eyes and she looked incredibly hurt.
"So what more do you want from a boy who lost his heart and soul?"
Amu stared at me for a while and I blinked, grabbing my guardian's cape and pulled something out of it and placed it in her hands. I removed my hands and she gasped, tears jumping to her eyes as she saw it…
The remains of Kiseki's egg. She looked up at me with horrified eyes and I closed my eyes.
"I was talking to him this morning. Then I told him I felt like I meant nothing at all… Being a king didn't matter. He went into his egg and darkened over. Then when I gave up hope of being a king… And having a queen someday… His egg suddenly shattered…"
I stared at her and she gasped as she looked into my eyes, which I knew looked dark and emotionless.
"Tadase-kun… Your… Your eyes…"
I looked up as the doctors walked in and began to take me away on the bed. I glanced back at Amu who had fallen to her knees and began to bawl. I closed my eyes and leaned against the pillow as they pulled me down the hall into operations.
So! How did you like it so far?! I think I got some of the lyrics wrong. Well! I will fix it later! 2nd chapter may be up later tonight! I still have ideas in my head!
