Snow Storm

The Stranger

December 20th

Everything is a blur. I blink a few more times to clear my vision. The baby blue ceiling paint comes to view first. My body feels heavy but I lift my arms up and stretch. I turn to my side expecting to see Mizore there but to my surprise she was out of bed.

I wonder where she went? I sit up and rub my eyes to clear up my vision. I look toward her side of the bed and see a note on her pillow. I grab it, and start to read it.

Honey.
I didnt want to wake you.
I left with my mom to look at some dresses. She is so excited that we are going to get married. Please think of a date for the wedding. Oh I made you some breakfast before I left. I hope it isn't cold when you wake up.
Love always, Mizore.

How sweet. Even if I'm asleep she thinks of me. Should I get up and get dressed now? Yeah might as well. I get out of bed, head toward the dresser. Oh wow, she got me clothes that I like. That woman knows me all to well.

I pull up my blue jeans, put on a black tank-top, then the white button up shirt to go over that. Head towards the mirror and pull my hair up into a pony-tail. While I was in a coma she didnt cut my hair. It's so much longer now.

I head out the room and step into the hall. I just realized I have no idea how to get to the kitchen. Haha looks like I'll just head this way until I find it. As I walk I found myself thinking about the future with Mizore.

"Big brother?" A small voice called to me

I snapped out of my thoughts, to see yukari. I smiled and just looked at her.

"Why are you awake already? Aren't you tired?" She started to turn a little red when she asked that.

I was a bit confused but I noticed something different about her. "No I'm fine why?"

"Can I talk to you outside? There's something I need to explain." She was bright red at this point.

"Sure. Lead the way." I smiled and grabbed her hand.

She wouldn't look at me as she lead us out to the balcony. She pulled her hand away from mine and just stood in front of me. Her eyes began to water up.

I was so confused at to what was happening. "Yukari...what's wrong?" I asked as I wiped her tears away from her face.

"Z-zero. Please. Please. Please dont hate me." She said as she started to cry even harder now.

"Yukari what's wrong? Why would I ever hate you? You cant do anything that would hurt me." I was so confused I reached for yukari but she stepped away.

"Peter, I...I...I'm sorry. Everything that happened. Wasn't real...you are still in a coma." She said

My head started to hurt, my heart felt like it just stopped beating. My hands are shaking. My ears are ringing, I can see yukari talking but I cant hear what she is saying.

She grabs my arms and starts to shake me. I dont even feel her there. There is no warmth, no pain, just what feels like my mind being torn apart. My knees are weak, I fall to the floor.

"But...I...Mizore..." I tried to say something but nothing made sense.

"Peter! You need to calm down. Please your heart wont be able to handle it." She screamed
