• The Red Spider Lily's First Petal

Tears continued to fall down my cheeks, "Lucas." I turn around and raised my hand, "Lucas."

Ruby eyes that always look at me with love, worry, and adoration.

I touched his cheek and caress them, "Lucas."

"Yuki... Why are you here?" He ask, with bewilderment on his voice.

"I wanted to see you."

"But why?"

"Because I miss you. You left me... You said you'll always be with me."

He touch my that is caressing his cheek, "You idiot." My eyes widened when tears fall down his eyes.

His hands... are warm... like he's still alive.

"You didn't have to die to see me." He detach my hand from his cheek and kiss my wrist, "I miss you too."

He let go of my hands and pull into a hug, "I miss you so damn much." The hug tighten and he lean his face on my hair.

The scent of chocolate and forest... This is really Lucas.

I hugged him back more tighter as tears continued to fall.

"I miss you, Lucas."

3rd person pov:

The two lovers stayed like that for a moment. Embracing each other. After not seeing each other for more than 2 years.

Lucas look at the tri-ne-sette behind Yuki and pull out of the hug gently, "You shouldn't be here, Yuki."

"I know."

Lucas's worried eyes look at her, he raise his hand and place them on Yuki's cheek, "Then why?"

Yuki touch his hand that is on her cheek gently, and closed her eyes, "I'm already glad... to see you before I go... Lucas... Did you know that I don't have any reason to live if you are not there?"

His eyes widened.

"You loved me, you saved me, you cared about me. And I return those feelings. I live for you, and now that you are not by my side... I don't have any reasons to live. I'm sorry... I couldn't save you. I'm sorry."

"I'm sorry."

"You don't have to, it's all my fault."

"I'm sorry for this, Yuki..."

Yuki's pov:

I open my eyes and saw Lucas casting a spell. My eyes widened, "What are you doing, Lucas!?"

"You have to be alive. I know you can live without me."

I look down and saw my feet disappearing.

He'll bring me back!

"Do you not want me here!?" Tears again formed at my eyes.

"I do! But Yuki, you don't belong here. You shouldn't be here." He hold my hand, "I promised you... I promised that I'll always protect and love you..."

"Lucas! Please stop this! I just want to be with you! Don't bring me back!"

He lean his forehead to mine, and hold my hand tighter, "I also want to be with you... forever."

"Then why-!"

"But Yuki, you have to live. I'm willing to give it all to have you live."

"What's worth living if you're not here!? Beside me!"
