Can I Have You?

Torn Apart

Zara: When you left me that day, I couldn't help but just sit there and cry.

She looked at his body. He only stared at the ceiling with nothing in his eyes. It was almost as if he was dead.

Zara: The angels sang a soothing melody.

Sebastian jolted up, drenched in sweat. He looked to his right and saw...

Zara. It was only Zara who rested by his side. He warmly smiled and pat her head.

Sebastian: You were the only person who was there for me. Thank you so much.

He lightly kissed her forehead and tried to leave to bed but Zara grabbed the back of his nightshirt.

Zara: Don't leave so soon. Stay with me.

Sebastian: Uh...Don't worry. I'll be with you for as long as you want me to.

Grell: I won! I won! You used to be so good at chess! What happened? Claude?

Claude was ignoring the red-head. He was missing something. Something important.

Claude: That's it! I can't take it anymore!

Grell: Did you finally remember?

Claude: Yes...

Grell: Good now let's-

Claude: I remember that I still need a few more books for the kids that I teach!

Grell: Ugh.

Having to hide this fact was tearing the red-head apart. It was so hard to keep a secret. Especially one this big. He just had to struggle through. they don't remember each other and Sebastian disappeared so there would be no point. He frowned.

'Grell: Please remember.'

Zara: Your cooking is the best!

Sebastian: Really? I was only using the cookbook that a friend gave to me.

He looked down.

Sebastian: Honestly, I don't remember who that friend was.

Zara:...W-Well I bet they were-huh?

Sebastian stood up from the table and started to tremble.

Sebastian: I'm sorry Zara. Please excuse me. I'm going to my room to read.

Zara: Okay! If that's it then I don't mind!

He closed the book and sat down. He put his head down and thought to himself.

Who was he missing?

Why was he so empty?

He didn't know and so he looked to his right at a certain picture. It was him and some man with red eyes posing for a picture.

The camera flashed and Sebastian covered his eyes.

Claude: I know it's bright but you can get through. I let you have a reward if you do this.

Sebastian: Like more of your love?

Claude: I can't love you more than I already do.

Claude: I know him. He's...
