The New Beginning

A Meeting

Laurance
You never really notice how big the world is until you've seen it, Aphmau taught me that. She taught me never to judge someone before you get to know them, never miss a chance to tell someone you love them, and no matter what dimension she's in, she cares. Today the village is having a town meeting about Aphmau's funeral arrangements, something I particularly don't want to talk about. I know everyone misses her, but they can't possibly feel as bad as I do. Other than just mentally sick, I'm starting to feel physically sick too. I've refused to eat for the past three days, and it's really starting to take a toll on me. Passing out isn't even the worst part, Kawaii~Chan keeps sending me cakes because she thinks I need sugar. But whenever she sends she always sends chocolate, Aph's favorite, I guess that's her way of coping with it.

I straightened my tie, this meeting was meant to be formal. I walked out the door and down to the plaza, where all parties were host, but this was anything but a celebration. My love and Lord is dead, and so is my Best Friend. Shortly after Aphmau died Garroth took his own life, I small memorial on the top of the hill. A dagger through the heart of my brother, and I feel the pain most similar. The pain of heartbreak is worse than any death, Romeo and Juliet taught me that. Ah, Romeo and Juliet, Aphmau's favorite. My favorite too, since high school when we had to preform it. Aphmau was Juliet, and I was..... Friar Laurence of course. Aaron got Romeo, that jerk, it's his fault we didn't date back them, he wanted Aph, but they didn't last. Losing Aphmau was bad enough, bit I think I'm more heartbroken about Garroth. He knew what he was doing, and he didn't even say goodbye. I miss both of them, more than I miss my old family. If I had one wish, it would be to bring them back, at whatever cost.
The door opened and Cadenza was standing there,
"Hey, it's go time" she said with a slight smile. She was wearing all black, definitely not like her. I looked at her, then began to walk forward. She held my hand as we walked.

I was appointed Lord shortly after Aph died, something my kind nature, I have no clue where they got that... I'm a shadow knight for crying out loud! So as lord, I have to talk at this dumb meeting. I really don't want to plan the love of my life's funeral, I thought I would have to at least plan a  wedding first....
