Sometimes I Remember Him [Fate/Grand Order] Siegfried X Karna [FINISHED]

Chapter 1

"You are my mate, never would I treat you bad and I would never leave your side even in death." his voice was deep and soft. He was so sincere about those words that he couldn't help the hot flushing of his cheeks as he held his hand.

Karna gasped in shock as he woke up from the same dream once more. Tears silently streaming down his cheeks, his body trembling. As if involuntarily he reached out next to him as if searching for someone to comfort him from a bad dream. He only felt more sad when he realized that no one was there next to him.

Of course, he clearly knew that no one was there. He was alone in his own room, no one other than him would be there nor would someone be coming to ask him something in that late hour. Yet the knowledge had only made him felt more empty inside.

He gripped his head as images and emotions flooded his brain, involuntary gasps escaping his lips, straining through the pain.

Karna could remember his repeating dreams so vividly. He could clearly remember how the setting of the sun gave orange hue to the clear sky. The glistening of the lake like a rippling bar of gold in the horizon and the tranquil sound of the free flowing water with the rustling of the of the leaves as gentle wind blows over it. But, no matter how much he tries to recall he couldn't make out the people he was with and why he was with them.

The only one person whom he seemed to faintly recall was a man with a long silver messy hair, still that was the only distinctive feature of that person as their face were almost in focus but not quite, like he was remembering something from his childhood but couldn't recall the exact details.

More tears started to stream down from his eyes. He was gripped with emptiness and fear. He somehow knew that person was someone important to him yet he could not even remember his face nor the sound of his voice. Karna knew it was nothing but a dream but at the same time he couldn't bring himself to believe it that it was just a mere dream.

He sat in his bed for a few moments until he was calm enough. He looked at the digital clock by the bedside table and saw that it was only 2:46 am. Too early to be awake but Karna would not be returning to sleep after waking up despite the feeling of heaviness in his eyelids that was begging to be shut close nor did the tempting warmth that the bed and blanket managed to change his mind to start his day in such ungodly hour.

He was afraid to sleep after that first dream because another one always follows. In contrary to the first in which he could feel immense joy and happiness, the following dream was just terribly tragic and filled with grief. It doesn't help that it was much clearer than the first one, like a memory burned in his mind, fading and unfading at the same time, like a ghost that kept haunting him.

Like the first one he could barely make sense of it but the last parts of it was an image of a black haired boy who was kneeling on the ground, cradling someone in his arms as he weeps in grief. The sight of that made Karna felt as if his heart was breaking for them. It was too much of a sight that he couldn't stand still just looking at them, he wanted to do something but he couldn't for it was nothing but a dream.

He had been having these dreams once in a while since for as long as he could remember. At first his father was very concerned about it, especially when he said something that his overprotective dad started crying because of it but Karna could no longer recall what he said for him to make a reaction like that.

If Karna could recall, he used to talked about something like telling someone's memory to the adults but as he grew up he was starting to have less and less of that memory along with recurring dreams. Like right now, It had been a while but he would just do what he would usually do. Just shrug it off and continue on with his daily life.
