I finally got comfortable enough in my bed as my blankets and pillows surrounded me. I then looked up holding back my tears. I sighed shaking the feeling off as best as I could. Quickly I reached for my laptop opening it up searching for the only video that could calm me down. That could erase all my present thoughts. But then I glanced over a video knowing I shouldn't go there, but I did. I felt my heart drop. I quickly clicked on it.

"Hey guys, it's Daichi. Welcome back to another video, sorry it's been a while I've been having some personal problems, but no worries." He nervously laughed. "Here's a song I'd like to sing."

I bite my lip as I watched his movements carefully, how gently he picked up the ukulele. I laughed to myself. Even for how tough he looked he was such a gentle person.

"Once there was a little plum who fell for a peach."

His angelic voice sang making my heart go crazy because I knew that I was the plum and he was the peach.

"The apricots grew jealous of how they spoke without speech."

Daichi flashed his gorgeous smile. I smiled back as if he were here.

"The plum said I don't need no limbs for you to feel my love."

Before I realized it tears started pouring out my eyes, I couldn't stop it.

"And I don't need my eyes to see, your hearts brighter than the sun."

He looked straight at the camera. I didn't look away I kept watching as his fingers moved creating magic.

"Baby if we run away we won't get very far."

He looked down as more tears came.

"The peach said that's okay with me. I'm happy where you are."

I decided to lay down staring at my lifeless ceiling letting his voice take me away.

"You have no hands for me to hold yet you still touch my heart
And keep me warm when it's cold with the heat inside your laugh."

I heard him laugh a little. I smiled wiping my eyes.

"And everybody in the fruit bowl was jealous of their love
Everybody dreaming about finding the peach to their plum
And isn't it strange to wonder how it happens how we love?
Babe, I think we got it I think we're the lucky ones, hey, I think we've got it, I think we're the lucky ones."

I decided to sing along. But my voice wouldn't work with me. So I stayed quite for the next part preparing myself.

"Though they were both soft within, their skin was growing hard."

I closed my eyes as more tears slide down my face.

"Bruised and ripe it grew until they thought they'd fall apart."

I sat up trying my best to breathe in and out to calm myself down.

"And no one seemed to understand what was happening to their love."

I covered my mouth trying not to let gasps come out as I struggled to watch the screen with blurry vision.

"The grape vines grew in knots and the beehives where abuzz."

I stayed still watching him. He wouldn't look at the camera anymore.

"And everybody in the fruit bowl had heard of their love."

I couldn't help but go back in my memories remembering everything.

"And every single pear and apple saw the peach lose the plum
And isn't hard to handle the idea of losing love
But babe, I think we had it, I think we were lucky once
Yeah babe because I had you, I know I was lucky once...."

"This was dedicated to my dear friend Suga." He said smiling, but it was different from before.

I stared at the video. Then scrolled down to the familiar comment section as. "He was such a great person.. Sad to see him go." "Rest in peace man." Flooded the comments. I felt my stomach turn and my chest tighten remembering what happened. "I'm... So sorry... I should've been there.." I cried out shoving my head into the pillows.

My thoughts threatened me to go back. I eventually gave up fighting and thought about what happened.

We had to break up. Well that's what he told me, that I should live, but he didn't realize he was the one that made life worth living. I didn't realize he was diagnosed with brain cancer until he died.... Which I found out from his mother. I regretted listening to him, but I knew he wouldn't let me do what I wanted to in a situation like that.

I laid back down looking at the blank sad wall as my eyes puffed up. I stayed there as the light coming from my laptop went out. I watched as my alarm clock changed its time to two a.m. I felt empty.

I miss him.
