Kenma's POV
I woke up that morning in Kuroo's bed. It was around 2 in the morning, and he was awake, sitting there, looking down. "Kuroo, you ok?" I asked, confused. "Why is it that everything hurts you? Why can't you just be normal and stop the depressing shit? I know your different but goddamn it Kenma. It hurts everyone around you to see you suffer. Especially when you question why we care." Anger washed over me. I stayed silent but Kuroo continued. "I just wanna be able to come back here one day and see a smiling Kenma, who isn't trying to kill himself, and wants to stay. A Kenma who is clear of scars." Kuroos words hit me hard. "A Kenma who gives a fucking shit about the people who love him. So you know what? fine. Do it." I got up, tears in my eyes. "If it hurt you that damn bad, you should've stopped fucking caring." I say, not yelling, but still meaning it. I ran out of the room. I was still in my clothes from yesterday, I put my shoes on and went out the door which was some how unlocked. "Kenma wai-" was all I heard before the door slammed shut. I ran down the hall and out the building. I eventually made my way through the street and to the roof of the building, where I liked to be. I caught my breath when I got there, walking to the edge. I sat there, my legs dangling as I, once again, gazed over the glowing city. It wasn't far from 3 in the morning. Tears escaped my eyes. Why would he ever say that? I had no idea where that came from. My phone buzzed.

2:48- Kuroo: Come on I didn't mean what I said just let me talk to you!!
I turned my location off. He had no chance of finding me unless he would think. I'm guessing he noticed I turned it off because he continued to spam me. The wind had dried my tears. Now my I was just sitting, again, so close to being able to grasp death. I thought about it. I remember the last time Kuroo caught me up here. I told him I wanted to see the world when I stop breathing. I did, and this is the only way to do so. I figured, since I had my chance, I would text him.
2:50- Kuroo: Kenma turn ur location I can't loose you
2:50- Kenma: If you need me
2:51- Kenma: Wanna see me
2:51- Kenma: Better hurry
2:51- Kenma: Cause I'm leaving soon.
2:52- Kenma: I want to see the world when I stop breathing
I stopped texting him after that. He continued to spam and call. I figured that would give him a hint. I knew what I was doing and I was so close. As I was about to stand and turn, I heard the door open. It was mere silence, as the door shut. "Tell me love is endless" I say, not looking back. "Ken-" I stopped him. "Don't be so pretentious." I paused. He took a step, but stopped. "Don't say I'm all that matters. I'm not ok, I feel so scattered." I stopped to let him speak. "Kenma I'm sorry-" He began. "Sorry can't save me now." I went on. "Sorry I don't know how." I repeated sentence after sentence, each one flashing a different memory through my head. "Sorry there's no way out" I paused, the silence filling the air. "But down." I stopped what I was saying. The last two words seem to hit Kuroo, because he was left speechless. We stayed in silence. I didn't want Kuroo to watch me fall. He'd stop it. "Call the team. Tell them it's been great and I'll miss them. But I'm not sorry." He seemed to be hurt. I stood and turned around. "Kenma no, stop" I looked at him. "Sorry theres no way out" I began to say again, but he interupted. "There are other ways out." He said, trying not to sob. "There are too many people here who love you, who need you. I love you and I need you here. I don't want to live without you. I can't live without you" He stopped. He seemed as if he was giving up. My hair blew around in the wind. We sat in silence for what felt like ages. I turned back around, still standing. I closed my eyes and inhaled. The thick air once again, satisfying. The coolness of it on my nose and cheeks, as the wind blew through my hair. I loved this feeling. I imagined falling down again. I could still feel Kuroo's eyes on me, and I knew he wouldn't leave.
I turned and faced him again. "Call the team and tell them I'll miss them." I say, watching my pace. "I'm sorry" I whispered as I fell back.
