The One That Got Away

I Remember What I Did to Make You Cry...

Two years after we told everyone that we were dating, went on dates, and had fun with each other.

But on my third year in Teiko, I have been distancing myself from her since we had the National Basketball Championship in Tokyo and our school got nominated. I was practicing and practicing basketball even more that I ever did. I was tired of how people thought that all I could do was call my butler and let him do the things while I just sit around doing nothing. Whenever Yuki called me, I used to push her away, not answering her and continue to practice.

One day, she came in front of me and started to call me.

"Seijuro..."

I gave a piercing look to her and her hazel orbs widened by the colour of my eyes. My right eye was red while my left eye was yellow.

"Seijuro, are you okay?" she asked slowly, and carefully, not wanting to anger me. Hey eyes not moving form mine.

"I am fine Yuki. What are you talking about?" I gave her a cold answer that made her flinch.

"N-nothing Seijuro. It is just that, you never talk like that to me..."

I saw her clench the hem of her skirt.

"Are you even Seijuro?"

I gave her a smirk But not the type of smirk where I tease her, but a heartless one.

"Of course I am Akashi Seijuro." I stated.

We were quiet once again, staring at each other.

"Yuki..."

"Yeah?"

"Are you done asking questions?"

"H-huh?"

"You are wasting my time Yuki."

I saw her bit her bottom lip and could tell immediately that she was holding her tears. The next thing she asked didn't really surprised me.

"A-am I a bother to you Seijuro?"

"...Yes..."

After I said that, tears started to fall from her eyes, not stopping at all. She was about to say something, but I beat her to it.

"Let's break up Yuki." I said with no feelings. No even showing any emotion to her. She didn't say anything since she looked down on the floor. So I continued. "I'm breaking up with you Yuki. It is about time where we don't bother each other. And free ourselves from each other. Although, out time was quite enjoyable...but it was worthless." I said as I started to walk past her, leaving here there, all alone.

I arrived at the gymnasium and make my way to my team.

"You're crying Akashi." A teammate of mine commented as he pointed to the tears that were falling from my heterochromatic eyes.

I touched my cheeks feeling them wet.

"It's just the dust. Now go back to practice. I'll be back." I ordered and left the gym, standing at the front gate of the school, wiping my tears, but they wouldn't stop.

"Why am I crying? I am absolute. I don't cry. What is going on?"
