~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I'm running non-stop a girl beside me her dark blue hair swaying as we run. We did some sort of charm that was supposed to keep us friends forever but the opposite was the result. Instead we ended up in this morbid place. And why we are running well... Let's just say we ran into a giant man carrying a sledge hammer with bloodshot eyes and now he's chasing us.

We turn at a corner quickly to hide from the thing chasing us. We we're both panting heavily.
"Kishinuma-kun is that 'thing' gone" she asked looking at me
"Yeah I think so Shinozaki" I replied

Looking ahead we saw an open room. The sign on top 'Infirmary II' it read.
"Hey there's another infirmary here" Shinozaki said then peeked inside. Everything was normal, atleast this infirmary wasn't like the first one we encountered. I shuddered remembering the wall where Suzumoto was splattered beside the first infirmary we encountered.

Entering there was only one infirmary bed and both of us were tired.
"You go on ahead and rest Shinozaki"
"But what about you Kishinuma-kun"
"I'll be fine" a dismissed her with a wave of my hand
"You need to rest too" she was being stubborn again

She sat down on the bed then motioned for me to sit beside her. Thank the darkness that she can't see my flustered face right now. I bet she was actually thinking how much better it would be if Satoshi was here in my place. The girl beside me started to hum. I knew what song it was soon both of us started to softly sing it.

I remember tears streaming down your face
When I said I'd never let you go
When all those shadows almost killed your light

Shinozaki had silent tears streaming down her face
"What's wrong Shinozaki?" she looked at me then layed down while crying softly
"Everything is my fault. I'm the one who made you all do that stupid charm and now look where we are. Mayu is dead and the rest are no where to be found they could be dead by now and it's all my fault" I held her hand and wished she wouldn't slap me
"Don't blame yourself Shinozaki"

I remember you said don't leave me here alone
But all that's dead and gone and passed tonight

"How in the world can I not blame myself for this. It was my idea. I suggested we do that charm" this conversation about not blaming herself won't be going anywhere knowing how stubborn Shinozaki can be. I stood up, I was going to leave her alone for a while but she grabbed my wrist
"Please don't leave me here alone Yoshiki-kun" she pleaded and used my first name......wait she used my first name. I sat back down and patted her head
"I guess I could stay here with you Shino-"
"Please call me Ayumi, Yoshiki-kun after all I called you by your first name as well" she then smiled softly at me and layed back down, she pulled me to lie down as well. Blush crept up my cheeks what on earth is she doing?

Just close your eyes
The sun is going down
You'll be alright
No one can hurt you now
Come morning light
You and I'll be safe and sound

I faced her, eyes closed then hugged me her grip strong as if she never wants to let me go. I was blushing non-stop. You see I have a crush on Shino- er Ayumi since the day she saved me from punching a gym teacher and getting expelled, and crying on my behalf. And ever since I wanted to protect her and soon developed a crush on her, soon enough I fell inlove with her. I brushed away some strands of hair that fell on her face she smiled in her sleep.
"Don't ever leave me Yoshiki-kun" she mumbled in her sleep.
"I will never leave you Ayumi after all I love you" I replied then suddenly her eyes fluttered open

Don't you dare look out your window
Darling everything's on fire
The war outside our door keeps raging on
Hold on to this lulluby
Even when the music's gone, gone

She was blushing as she stared at me.
"So that's why you always stood up for me in school and protected me here in Heavenly Host" crap! I think she heard that
"Y-You heard that?" I'm blushing madly right now I didn't know she was awake at all. I thought she was asleep.
"Y-Yeah I did it's actually alright ever since we got stuck in here I kind of fallen for you since you always protected me" she said a faint crimson on her cheeks. I never thought.....if this was a dream I never wanted to wake up. Well what I mean is being with Ayumi not being in this hellhole. There was a possibility that she returned my feelings and that was enough for me

Just close your eyes
The sun is going down
You'll be alright
No on can hurt you now
Come morning light
You and I'll be safe and sound

She got up and I soon followed suit. Then looked up at me with a bright smile on her on her face. She leaned in closer to me then whispered
"I love you Yoshiki, watashi no kishi(My Knight)"
"And I love you as well Ayumi
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I smiled at the memory that was actually one of the best despite being in heavenly host. It's been ten years since that incident only 5 of us survived: Me, Ayumi, Yuka, Satoshi and Naomi. Four of our friends lost their lives along with their existance. No one knew they existed the five of us were the only ones who knew of them. And we kept their memory alive even if it broke our hearts.
"Yoshiki, Ayame, Yoshine come down it's dinner time" Ayumi's voice called from downstairs
"Coming Mommy!" two high- pitched voices belonging to two little angels rang through my ears.

You see Ayumi Kishinuma is my wife and Ayame and Yoshine are our son and daughter, their twins and both 5 years old. Me and Ayumi got married 7 years ago, after 3 years of dating she finally said yes when I proposed to her on the first day of spring.

"Thanks for the story Daddy" my son Yoshine said he had blond hair and blue eyes.
"Yeah tell us another one next time" Ayame looked up to me her grey eyes sparkling while her dark blue hair in twin tails swayed at the movement of her head.
"Ok now let's go down before Mom comes up to call us" I smiled at them then the door burst open
"Too late I'm already up here now come on you three it's dinner time"

Timeskip~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
When dinner was over, and the twins were tucked in and asleep. Me and Ayumi were in our shared room
"Hey Yoshiki do you still remember that song?" I smiled then nodded
"Can we sing it together?"

Just close your eyes
The sun is going down
You'll be alright
No one can hurt you now
Come morning light
You and I'll be safe and sound

She leaned in to me when we finished the song.
"I love you Yoshiki"
"I love you too Ayumi" we shared a long sweet kiss.

And just like the song said and as long as we are in eah other's arms even if we face more challenges in life we will always end up safe and sound.
