°•The Night I Lost Us•°

-°Deep blue skies°-

His eyes were tired, and his heart ached.
Akito couldn't fall asleep. No matter how hard he tried, he couldn't

He couldn't stop thinking about the love he'd lost.

His eyes were welling up with tears, and his throat stung.
He wanted to take it all back, to take away Toyas suffering.

He couldn't stop thinking about him, how perfect he was.
His warm smile
His dazzling eyes
His split-dyed hair
His beauty mark.

"Was it.. because of me? Was this my fault??"

He couldn't think straight. Not without Toya.

He got up and dragged his body to his window. He didn't know what he was doing, but he quickly found out.

He wanted to stargaze to try and make him tired.

As soon as he looked up though, tears escaped from his eyes.

The sky was deep blue, Toyas signature colour.

Their colour.

The colour of that one night.

-Flashback-

"Toya, what's that constellation called? I swear I've seen it before."

"That's Casseopeia, Akito."

"Of course you'd know that. What other constellations are there?"

"Let's see....theres lots of them. Like Orion, Scorpius.."

Akito could listen to Toya talk for hours. His voice was always smooth and calming.
He didnt know what came over him. But he just said it.

"Hey, Toya?"

"Yes?"

"The moon looks beautiful tonight, doesn't it?"

-The present-

Akito remembered that day, where he finally confessed to Toya.
He remembered being so happy as he locked lips with him.

That day, the sky was a deep blue colour.
Much like this one.

After they let go, they stared into the deep clue sky. Getting lost in the stars.

The moon was dazzling, but it wasn't as dazzling as his Toya.

But they got lost in the stars, together. He got lost in the deep blue with Toya there. Besides him.

Together.

With Toya.

All Akito could do now was stare at the deep blue sky.

Alone.

Without Toya.
