*Toba's P.O.V*
I sat huddled under a large oak tree. I was crying again... I didn't want to. I didn't want to show this weakness every year. I wanted to be happy like Akazeto would want, but I couldn't. My heart wouldn't allow it. I felt so much fear and regret. So much negativity... I didn't want to feel this way, but what else could I do...
"Akazeto... I... I wish you were here. I wish you were alive with me, or without me is fine," I muttered. "I just which you were alive."
I then heard a rustling in the bushes. I didn't even look. Whatever it was could attack me... I'd be okay with that...
I soon felt a warm hand on my shoulder, and then heard a soft chuckle.
My eyes widened. I shot up and turned around very slowly, oh so slowly. My dull brown eyes met with soft Irish green ones.
"A... Aka... Akazeto," I said with teary eyes.
The male smiled and said, "Toba-kun..."
"This isn't fair!" I sobbed. "The world is so cruel!"
"And why's that?" asked Akazeto as he held my trembling body in his hands.
"First, it has me find out that Mimi remarried. Then, it has me confront her... Next thing I know, I'm hallucinating," I cried.
"You're not hallucinating, Toba," said Akazeto as he sighed.
"How do I know?" I asked looking up at the boy with tearful eyes.
Akazeto then bent down with a smirk. This kind of scared me... He, after a while of hovering over my lips, continued to bend forward until he reached my ear. "You are just too adorable... That's why I couldn't..."
I blushed furiously.
"Just too cute," chuckled Akazeto as he smiled.
I looked up at Akazeto as he stood. "Now," he said. "Let's take you home."
I tried to stand, but my legs gave out midway. I said while sniffling, "A... Onii-chan..."
Akazeto then chuckled and picked me up. He continued to carry me back home bridal style.
...
Little did I know, that, a black haired, red eyed demon and his navy blue haired master had been watching the whole time.
Akazeto opened the mansion door and smiled. "Hello, Crystal."
Crystal looked at us in shock. She then used demon-wolf speed to snatch me out of Akazeto's comfortable arms, set me down on the cold marble floor, pull out a Death Blade, and get into a defensive stance. "What are you doing here?" she snarled.
"C-Crys-" I was interrupted as Crystal yelled, "Quiet, Tobahiko!"
I instantly shut my trap. She had only spoken to me like that once in my entire life. That time was when I had been kidnapped since I was at that time, the youngest. That was a do-or-die event in my life where I either listened to everything Crystal said, or die by the hands of gruff looking demons who had no idea how to run a kidnapping.
"Crystal," said Akazeto as he rubbed the back of his neck. "It's been a wh-"
"Get out," growled Crystal. "And never return."
Akazeto looked at Crystal in shock, and so did I.
"You don't belong here," said Crystal as she glared at Akazeto.
"I know it's strange but-"
"You're just going to drag Toba in again," said Crystal. "You're going to put him in that same position!"
"Listen I-"
"You're going to be the death of him," said Crystal. "Even though you've somehow managed to come back to life... There will still be a loss! Toba... He'll do anything for you, even if it would mean his death! I won't make the same mistake again!"
"Crystal..." I muttered as I looked at her in awe.
Akazeto sighed. "Crystal, I'm sorry."
"You think that's all it takes! All it takes is a sorry?!" yelled Crystal. "He was willing to die for you! He was willing to watch you and that b*tch be happy for the rest of eternity! Even after you died, Toba still held onto your memory! And for what, huh?! For you to just leave him if you were alive?!"
"I..."
"You can leave," hissed Crystal. "We don't need you here."
"I'm sorry," said Akazeto as he shook. "I never meant for things to happen the way they did. I only wanted the best for my family back then. I didn't want to lose Toba, but I also didn't want to go around knowing that I was nothing but filth for not taking care of my responsibility. I'm so sorry... I never meant to hurt Toba, but that was exactly what I did... I... I just... I only... I want a second chance!"
Akazeto then got on his hands and knees and bowed. "Please, I beg of you! Give me a second chance!"
Crystal then looked at Akazeto in shock. She glanced at me and then back at Akazeto. "What do you say?" Crystal asked me.
I clenched my fist close to my heart. He was my first love... My only love up until... "What about Sebastian and Ciel?" I muttered.
"Toba-kun?" asked Akazeto as he looked up at me with pleading, tearful eyes.
"I..." I looked down. I had always loved him... Always... "I..."
The door to my mansion then slammed open.
I looked to see Sebastian and Ciel.
"What do you think you're doing?" hissed Sebastian.
"You still haven't given us a proper answer!" shouted Ciel.
"I..." I said as I stood to my feet. "I..."
"Toba-kun?" questioned Crystal.
This wasn't good. Everyone was looking at me. They all wanted to know. 'What should I-'
My thoughts were cut off as a figure appeared in front of me. Time seemed to slow down as it talked.
"What will you do, young Ukari-sama?" questioned the figure as it circled around me. "What will you do?"
"I..." I said. "I..."
"Do you even want to make the decision?" asked the figure. "Do you even desire any of these men?"
"I..." I said. "I..."
"Who will you choose?" asked the figure. "Who, Toba-kun?~"
A/n: Again, I'll let you know before your decision, but I'm pretty sure you can tell it's pretty close. I will admit that I had a different kind of scene for this... But, I felt that this had a clearer path... Or something like that. I hope it didn't feel all wonky! ^.^ Have a great day/night/afternoon!
