"I might hate myself tomorrow, but Im on my way tonight, at the bottom of a bottle, your the poison in the wine, and I know I can't change you, and I won't change."

Hinode woke up, and Natsu wasn't on his embrace anymore, he looked around but Natsu can't be seen, he stood up and washed his face, the sun was bright that can be seen on the window and cascading through the curtains, finding Natsu was still on Hinode's mind, he ran outside the door, and through the apartment's stairs, his steps can be heard on the empty streets, he stopped, and Natsu can be seen on the bench near the shores, Hinode approached him and quietly sat beside Natsu, the silence parted between them.

"You missed the sunrise." Natsu declaims, as he look at Hinode.

"I did." Hinode chuckled gently, 

"Yesterday was fun" Natsu started,

"I kept wondering about the field of dandelions you mentioned, Im exited for it." He faint a chuckle. "Oh, really?" Hinode chortle, "let's visit it later, how about that?" . "Sure, it will be fun" Natsu imagined. After an hour has passed, the sea was gleaming as the sun illuminates the stream, they both gaze upon the water. 

Natsu slowly drift off on a quiet sleep, he closed his eyes after looking at the ceiling for a long time, then all was suddenly quiet.

He opened his eyes but he can't see anything, it was so dark, and he can't breathe, 'was this the continuing nightmare?' He asked himself, a blinking light interrupted him, it was coming towards Natsu he can't breathe but somehow he seem fine. The lights started to multiply, it came altogether, and created a gleaming waves of the sea, he stood up and now he was on the bench near a shore, his heart starts to beat faster, and faster, until he blacked out, and all he can hear was his heart, his screaming heart. He once again opened his eyes and he can see Hinode upside down, looking at him, he sat straight as Hinode sat beside him. "Nightmare?" Hinode preached, "You look scared." Natsu ignored him, and looked away ignoring the subject, "its just that.." Natsu began "the nightmares just dosen't make any sense, its like Im finding for answers but..." "I don't want to know it at the same time." They both continued, their eyes met. Hinode looked away and gave a small laugh, it was shown on his face how he laughs, but the meaning was all shown on his face. 

'If only I could've understand you better, there's so many things I could have did to make you feel better, but all I can see was your eyes lying, and a fading dream with you dying. Just tell me everything, maybe I can do something, to make your heart feel better, that's all that matters.'

Natsu held Hinode's hands in an enfolding way, "we all had flaws." He suddenly said. Hinode looked at him and gave a warm smile telling him that everything is alright. But Natsu can tell the sorrow on his eyes, as the sun lights. The silence parted them, while the lights cascade and the shadows on behind the folding curtains. 

'just try to tell me even once.'

Hinode held Natsu's hands tighter, Natsu can feel the darkness hiding in his heart, Hinode starts to breathe and began to say, 

"I..love you.."

 Natsu's heart started to ache in a very familliar way, he stayed silent but wanted to tell how he feels, the grip from Hinode's hands started to tremble, "I.." Natsu started, he can't say anything for his heart was stopping him to tell what he wants. Instead, Natsu embraced Hinode, as if showing him that everything is alright, 'Im fine.' 'Your fine.' He wanted to tell him more.
