For the 'fic I won't write' thing, SouKisu, "After the end" ºwº
Title: After The End.Rating: M.Characters/Pairings: Yamazaki Sousuke/Shigino Kisumi.
Summary: Haven’t you ever felt as if there’s more to things than what meets the eye? That even if you’ve seen all the faces of the cube, you still don’t know what’s hidden inside?
He told me his secret, but he didn’t exactly confide in me (which hurts, mind you). He definitely didn’t tell me that his injury would affect him to such lengths; that his long sought dream of standing on the same stage as Rin at the top of the world had, since long ago, crashed and burnt.
I knew his shoulder had broken down, but I didn’t realize his heart had too.
And now, according to him, after everything was over and done, his only option was to work at his father’s business.
“No!” I yelled at him, worried, after he finally deigned himself to speak to me (what am I, a pest? Rude) and explain, a week before graduation. “There has to be more than that!”
“That’s how it is, Kisumi.” Sousuke shrugged and sighed.
Now, let me tell you. I am not the type to get angry. I’ve never been. Not even when Hayato pulled my hair or when he kiddy-doodled on my asignments due for the next day when he was half his age.
But—and it definitely didn’t feel nice — I felt my blood boil. The nerve!
“…You-!” I took a raged breath, “You can’t possibly just- Give up!? What the heck, Sousuke!?”
He reached for the neck of my shirt and pulled me closer. He proceded to yell back at me with a sneer on his face. “What else do you want me to do?! It’s not like I have a back-up plan! I didn’t even apply for any university! It’s over!”
Yes, say whatever you want, but I could only think of Hayato’s bedtime stories. “But you haven’t reached your ‘Happily ever after’!”
Sousuke seemed taken aback for a second, but he caught on to what I meant. He let go of me.
“…That isn’t for me, and I don’t expect you to understand. The end. Period.” His voice had a tone of defeat and his eyes lost some of their luster.
I clenched my hands into tight fists. “You know… even if the stories say ‘The end.’, they aren’t exactly over, you know? The characters’ lives within the book still continue even after ‘The end.’” I averted my eyes. “…Your story can have a sequel.”
I looked back at Sousuke.
And his eyes glimmered with a tiny, tiny hint of hope.
