Hearts Connected // Kurusu Syo

Listen to the song while reading. It will make you 'feel' the story more(?)

-------------------- • ----------------------

Time passes so quickly when Syo is having fun singing with (your name) for weeks that he didn't realized that the dancing plant is no longer small.. It has became too tall for himself to reach.

As (Your name) finished playing one song, she looked up to check the window above the piano but it seems like a tree is blocking the sunlight from shining through. "..." She looked at the blonde who was soundly asleep at the side of the piano by the sound of her soft and soothing melody that she had played earlier. Syo's blonde hair covered half of his face as the gentle breeze blew.

(Your name) placed the cover back for the piano and covered the male with a pink blanket. The place is dead silent for a girl to stay by herself. The girl looked around for something to do so she went into an opening at the side of the huge forest-like space. She stepped on the little stairs that leads her to an unknown place.

As she saw the light at the other side of the tunnel, a smile spread on her face. She looked around her surroundings when she reached the last step. "...?" She was surrounded with books, books and more books. (Your name) loves romance as that's what Syo likes too. Yes. Syo loves romance. (Your name) was about to reach out for a book in the highest place but she was too short. Suddenly, a pair of hands got it instead. The female looked back and her eyes met a pair of sky blue ones.

Thank you...

Syo heard a faint high-pitch girl's voice from inside his head. He flinched as he thought that the voice came from behind him. He gulped as he looked at (your name). She gave him her a sweet smile to tell him that she meant it. "You're the one who thanked me..?" His voice was cracky as he asked and she gave him a nod.

"... You have a beautiful voice.." Faint shades of pink can be seen on his cheeks. "E-En! Of course!" He chuckled and handed the book to (your name). She took from his hands and gave him a little bow before sitting down on the nearby stool and flipped open a book titled "50 Shades of Grey."

Syo's cheeks reddened. "A-A girl like you are not suppose to read this!" He took away from her. She gave him a little pout before sighing silently.

It's just a storybook...

Syo heard her voice again and gulped. Shaking his head at the girl, he protested. "This story has mature content! It's not for girls like you!" (Your name) then looked around the room again and a dirty looking golden covered book caught her attention.

Ah! Found one..!

She grabbed it from the shelf nearby and flipped it open. Pictures of a baby was on the first page. A baby with very alittle blonde hair on his head. It was Syo when he was young. He could feel his face heating up as (your name) flipped through the pages.

Aren't you cute..?
She chuckled.

Soon, They reached the page where it shows pictures of Syo celebrating his 20th birthday. Tubes were everywhere around his body. His hands, arms.. Everywhere. Syo looked so weak in that picture. That's when it hit Syo. When did this take place..? Where was that place..? He couldn't seem to remember.

(Your name) was tearing as she flipped through the pages, looking at the pictures. Syo clutched his head, pulling his blonde hair. 20th birthday..? What is a birthday..? That was when a stuffed toy walked towards the both of them from the stairway.

It was Piyo-chan. It waddled towards Syo and stood infront of him. "Huh..?" With a touch from the chick, Syo's mind went blank. He has forgotten wthat he was thinking about. The memories that he has forgotten are in the picture book. The library that they are in now is where his memories are stored in forms of books.

After that, Piyo-chan nodded to (your name) telling her to distract Syo from this place. She quickly pulled Syo with her towards the piano where the hug tree is. "Are we going to make the tree grow taller?" He asked, smiling at the girl. She nodded and returned the smile.

She placed her long slender fingers on the black and while tiles of the piano and started playing a gentle sounding introduction of the song and then in the chorus, it sounded really sad and depressing. As Syo was singing, he peep at the (hair colour) haired girl as tears started to stream down her face as she continued.

She is hurting...

The blonde walked over to she and placed his warm hands on her freezing ones. She immediately stopped playing the piano as she looked up and gazed into a pair of cyan eyes. Her fingers relaxed under the older male's and faked a smile as tears continued to roll down her cheeks.

"(Your name)?" Syo called out to her. She immediately looked away as tints of pink started to appear on her cheeks. She removed her hands from Syo's as she placed them on her cheeks and shook her head vigorously.

I-Ignore me..!

Syo heard a high pitched voice before (your name) ran towards another opening at the other side of the room. "(Your name)!" Syo shouted but he was too late, she has already disappeared.

......Wake up...!

Syo heard a male's voice echoing from above. He looked up and tilted his head to the side, confused. "What was that..?" He stared at the window for awhile more before slowly making his way towards the opening where the girl went, not knowing what to do and what was about to happen to the both of them and what they mind find it who they will meet.
