~So that whenever you look up into the sky, just look for the one that shines the brightest, I'll be looking down at you too. That's how you'll know I'll be there~
It's been a few days, and like Oikawa said, he visited her everyday. He also took note of her worsening state, but didn't want to say anything of it; instead, enjoying his time with her.
After being notified by the doctor's that she probably won't get through the month, he spent every moment he could with her. However, whenever he visits, she always looks doubly worse than she did the day before. He was obviously concerned about her, even if he didn't show it in the hospital room, he showed it every second at school.Every moment of free time he had was spent with her. As much as he loved being in her company, he also hated it because he secretly knew, and tried not to think about, that one day, she would disappear forever.
++++++++++++++Time skip to hurry this along.....
It was nearing the end of the month, a moment that Oikawa was dreading. He walked into her room, like all the other times he had visited before, and took notice of her smiling face. It made him think how she could be so happy when she was going to die, no one knew when she was going to die, there was an air of mystery surrounding it, it could happen at any point and yet she was smiling like there was nothing wrong.
"Mocchan... Why do you smile even though you know how bad you are?" Oikawa said depressingly, coping with her in hospital didn't settle well over time like he thought, it just got worse.
"Because.. I.. I knew I was gonna die ages ago... My mother... told me that I'm gonna die when I'm older... so it really isn't all that shocking.. to me... Besides, you're with me. Although I'd rather you never knew" Her joy turned into sadness quickly, "I'm still scared about it though... even if I do smile, I don't want to die" Tears threatened to spill out of her dull eyes. Oikawa noticed that her eyes began loosing life, and her skin had turned ghostly white, making the bags under her eyes stand out even more. She was pretty much a skeleton at this point.
"Mocchan, doesn't talking so much hurt?"
"Yeah, but it doesn't matter"
"But if it hurts then don't do it"
"But if I stop talking, I won't be able to communicate with you"
"Write what you want to say on paper then"
She laughed sadly, "Aha, I would if I could see"
Oikawa's eyes widened at the realisation, her eyes seemed distant because she couldn't see out of them anymore, therefore no emotion could be relayed through them."M-Mocchan? You c-can't see me?" He asked reluctantly.
Tears fell freely down her cheeks as she looked him in the eyes, not actually seeing anything though. She smiled again but it showed him all but happiness. "I c-can't I-I'm really sorry"
Oikawa also felt tears roll down his cheeks, his heart clenched in pain. A feeling he never wanted to feel again. He stepped forward and took her small, cold hand in his. It used to be so warm.. He thought.
"Your hands are so warm, mine are cold... Like I'm already dead, I wouldn't be surprised if I were though... It probably would've been easier""You aren't dead Mocchan, and you aren't going to be" Oikawa ignored her last comment as he remembered what she used to be like, not this immobile, dying girl.
"You don't have to lie, we both know I'll be gone by the end of the month... It should've been sooner but I'm too stubborn"
"Being stubborn is a good thing"
"It isn't when you drag others into your life... If I weren't so stubborn... I wouldn't have met you... because I'd have been dead way before highschool"
Oikawa just tightened his grip on the girl's hand. "You aren't going to regret being stubborn Mocchan"
"I don't because... I'm glad I met you... Even if it ends badly, I'm glad that I got to call someone a friend..."
"He..!" "And someone, more than a friend" ~
"I'm sorry we didn't have much time together.."
"Don't worry, we will after you're better"
She frowned, "Promise you won't be affected by my absence"
"I won't... I'll try, why?" The girl grabbed his other hand.
"Because I don't think I'll see tomorrow" She laughed quietly, "I can't feel my legs anymore, and my arms feel like twigs" Her grip weakened. Oikawa's eyes shot open in fear as he began fussing over her frail figure, he pushed the emergency button before rushing over to her side. He watched as her grip on the railing faltered. Tears fell, one after another, as he saw the girl he fell in love with, slowly loosing her life. He watched as she raised her arm slightly, "Hey Tooru?" His heart broke, no it was decimated at the small voice as it spoke his name. "M-Mocchan...?" He went over by her side to grab her hand,
"I love you..."
Her arm fell to her side as her breathing slowed. The heart monitor went flat, and all he could do was watch. Doctors and nurses flooding the room, pushing him out. His face was fixed with shock, while his own hand dropped.
She's gone. She broke her promise.
He turned around, walking out of the hospital, earning a look of empathy from Shiro as she saw him walk out. His face still held sadness but he smiled to himself as he looked up at the sky.
"...Mocchan, I might have to break that promise of yours... Because... I don't think I can stop myself.." He whispered as tears freely rolled off his cheeks and splattered onto the cold pavement below.
We will meet again, I promise you that Tooru
//I kinda rushed it eh? well better off finished than not. I might prolong it i might not - i might even do a happier ending depending on how i feel but happier endings seem to always be so long >:P and ill never know when to finish it so if i end up doing a happy version then it will probably remain unfinished - you can make up your own happy story tbh = she gets out of hospital - happy ever after//
