I was finally waking up after a strange night, even though this might have been the first time in years that I rest so comfortably, it truly was strange, I woke up and felt two arms of porcelain-like skin hugging me deeply, I felt a light breathing in the back of a neck and two giant lumps in my back, two truly soft lumps…
The hell?! This girl is the misunderstanding itself that have taken human form! I told her yesterday that she didn't need to touch me! I was trying to break free but her grip was truly strong, also the breathing in my neck was making me shudder, knowing that my neck is a weak point of mine. Just remembering last night was enough to make me blush…
After she said that last sentence, I became a little overwhelm, I don't really understand this person at all, maybe she has some kind of problem? But if she really does, then I can help her with it and get that wonderful feeling again!
I don't really want to be sound corny or like some kind of normalfag-like sputter of phrases to sound cool but, My heart feels really strange, it hurt, like I have some kind of thing breaking inside me and whatever I had that maintain me together leaked out, letting a hollow vessel inside. For some reason, that feeling I get when I help others somehow fills the void for some time and I truly feel like nothing can go wrong, either way, I need that again, Like some kind of drug, I taste it once and I really want to do it again.
''I don't really understand what are you implying but, If you have some kind of problem, I'll help you with it'' I was smiling a little in my last statement
''….'' She was looking at me in a fixated way. Trying to analyze me or something
''…..?...'' I could only look at her and tilting my head a little under her gaze, I was truly confuse now, Why is she looking at me like that?
''Someone who can't accept help is not worthy of giving help to others'' She told me this with her cool beauty facet…..Huh?
''What do you mean?'' I was getting creep out by her statement
''You won't be able to help anyone in your current form'' She sit on her bed with a serious expression, contradicting her previous behavior, her really childish behavior.
''No…I can still….''My voice was weak, I don't know why but the hollowness of my heart was clenching me when she said those things, Something similar to the feeling of your dream dying, As if your hope is dying…
''How can someone who doesn't love himself go spitting out things about saving others? Also, your reasons appear to be a little messed up, Hachi-kun, I don't think that you'll be able to do anything for anyone''
And that's when I knew, my only hope was death, the only door that was open for me to escape this numbness close itself right in front of me, the beautiful being in front of me began looking my way with pity in her eyes.
…Pity?...
No….NO!
''NO, THAT'S WRONG!, I CAN STILL, I NEED TO HELP OTHERS''
She just stood there, in front of me, like letting me let all out, she appears to be calm even though I was close to being shouting, but I couldn't help it, she was denying my only right to still exist, to being useful, if I can't even do this…What is the point of me continuing on living?
''YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND, OF COURSE FOR SOMEONE AS PERFECT AS YOU, YOU WOULDN'T KNOW BUT WHAT SHOULD I DO?! WHAT AM I SUPPOSE TO DO?! I DON'T HAVE ANYTHING ELSE! I'M NUMB!'' This time, I really did shout, I know that I'm not being myself but I couldn't help it, Heh, even though I'm always keeping my emotions inside, It seems that Yukinoshita and Yuigahama's betrayal crush every single barrier I had, I was lashing out at this beautiful girl just because she said the wrong things at the wrong moment. Her appearance of the Cool Beauty was faltering, revealing a sad face.
''That's right, I'm numb, I try to hold on too many impossible things on my hands and all that left me was this hollowness, I try to make friends with them even though I knew that it wasn't a good idea, hehehe…. I HAD THE PREVIOUS EXPERIENCE! I SHOULD'VE KNOWN! Every time I try to open myself to someone, I always ended up getting hurt, But this time, I don't know why but for some reason I thought that I was finally getting close to that one distant wish of mine and you know what happen? MY DREAM WAS SHATTERED!, THE ONLY THING I NEVER TOLD ANYONE, BECAUSE I THOUGHT THAT MAYBE I FINALLY FOUND PEOPLE WHO COULD BECOME MY FRIENDS!...'' I sighed, too much, this is too much, but, Still, I have one last thing to say and I'm sorry Yuzure that you have to listen to me when I'm like this.
''My only wish betray me, the only thing inside me is this hollowness that I can't get rid of, b-but you know? When I save you, I felt incredible, I manage to contain it, for those precious seconds, I felt good, I was happy, I want more of it, I want more of that feeling!'' Yes, that's right, I need more, Just so I can keep moving forward, I need more.
Yuzure stayed silent for five full minutes, studying me, analyzing me, her amber-colored eyes were so deep that even I flinch a little. Finally, as if coming to a decision, she got to her bed and sit quietly.
Then, she look at me and smile.
''Hachi-kun, come here for a minute'' she told me that with such a sweet voice that she almost manage to fool me, but I won't be beaten ever again, my heart will not falter ever again,
Even though I was a little on edge, I did what she told me and get closer to her, she move a little so we could be face to face on her bed, I was getting more and more nervous but after channeling my ultimate magic, She wouldn't like me in a million of years, I manage to calm myself down, I couldn't quite look at her face directly because, well, she was too gorgeous to even try.
''You aren't looking at me Hachi-kun'' Hearing her tone of voice, I deduce that she was pouting for some weird reason, even though that was completely out of place.
''I'm sorry'' I just couldn't say anything else
''Hachi-kun'' Now her voice was serious again, what's with her and those continuous changes of personalities?
''Yes?'' I asked unsure
''There's a way for you to fulfill that emptiness you're feeling'' The moment she uttered those words, I immediately look her way just to see those beautiful amber eyes getting closer.
''D-Do you know how?'' I saw her hands reaching out to me, I stared at her hands for some minutes and then lift my sight a little so I could see her face, her cheeks getting redder by the seconds,
''Give me your hands'' that wasn't a question, it was an order, so I silently complied, she began running her hands on mine with a strange glint of wonder in her eyes, she touch every single space of my hands with an almost dreamy look. Finally, as if deciding something, she cross ours hands, every single finger intertwined, my face was burning but I keep chanting to myself, to refrained myself, I must not hope, I cannot allow even the single smallest flicker of hope in my heart, because I know that if I take even a little more, I'll break.
But for some reason, all those thoughts disappear momentarily the moment I saw her smiling softly, completely contented with our current situation, so much that I couldn't help myself asking.
''A-A-Aren't you disgust….with me?'' I don't know why but I suddenly feel small, as if I was literally the smallest thing in this planet, and she was God, looking upon me with her grace.
''Why should I? You are a wonderful person, even though you don't know it yourself, only someone wonderful would risked his life to save others, but, I'm afraid that that is the only thing that may destroy you; from what you've been telling me, you are a kind person who always gets neglected, of course you would ended up like this, without a single positive thought about yourself, that's why I don't think that you should help more people, without someone holding you and avoiding you getting hurt, you will only ended up getting more and more hollow, believe me when I tell you that what you think you want is nothing more than a quick sensation, you may get addicted to it but in the end, you won't recover yourself, there's only one way for you,'' Only….one?...Was I….wrong?
''The only thing that can fulfill your numbness, the only thing that can take you back from the clutches of despair, is Love''
''Huh?''
''Only through acts of love, you can heal yourself, That's the only thing that can save you as you are now'' Her smile was meant to make me feel better but it only make me fall in despair once more
I unclasp my hands from hers and turn my back to Yuzure, I felt smaller and smaller as time pass by, Because…. If what she said is the truth, what should I do?!
''B-But, What should I do? You gave me hope just so you could crush it right in front of me?! I can't get something like that!''
I was clutching my uniform strongly, the only person I could expect something like that is from Komachi but, she was forced to love me, if we weren't born siblings, we would never had met, she always say so, she can't give me what I need. What should I do?! WHAT SHOULD I-
I suddenly feel calmer as I felt two arms embracing me from behind, a lavender scent overcame my senses, Softness, that's all I could feel, even though I knew what Yuzure was doing, I was tired, too tired to even protest…..and also….
I don't know why but, this feels…nice
''I'll heal you Hachi-kun, I'll love you, I'll give you so much love that you will feel like you're about to overflow'' She was muttering that into my ear, causing me to feel the slumber coming after me, I felt at peace so suddenly that I fall asleep.
Yeah, I remember something like that, I don't understand, why would she say something like that? I already offer to give her whatever she wanted freely so I don't think that she is getting on my good side to get something, that's the problem, I couldn't decipher her second intentions, no matter how much I think about it.
I don't want to take another chance into the whole trust others thing but, I cannot feel even the smallest glimpse of malice coming from her, that's what scares me, usually I can feel that intent, the ulterior motives and more or less understand the intentions of others, but with her is different, I can't help it, I just lower my guard with this girl that I haven't met even a full day, I don't understand how are we able to talk like we have been acquaintances for years but maybe I'll understand eventually, if I keep getting close to her, it isn't like me to hope for any kind of relationship but, for some reason this girl is making me think all this things.
So while I was lying there, with her warm body gripping mine with tremendous force, I couldn't help one thought slip away.
