"Tet--tsu....!!!"

The sound echoed in the air, suddenly freezing it. Tears dropped, until it almost seemed to flood the place, until the entire world seemed to be crying- and there was only the two of them.

The beautiful redhead looked up at him, with widened eyes.

"Don't leave me.. Don't ever leave me again...!" He pulled the slender form into his arms, and buried his face into the crook of that pale neck.

"Oh, I believe you, I know... It's because you chose to understand whoever it was, isn't it?" Those eyes flickered, and Sakura almost swore he saw the sky's blue reflected in those eyes.

"...I guess."

"............."

He laughed quietly in his heart.

Only the depths of the sea knew darkness by its core...
