Eternal Melody

It was the gift he gave her that Christmas. It looked like they both got hurt from Eli's injuries before they came here, then she must have fallen off the cliff because the wind blew this way. She must have been wearing it so she could feel his presence.

This girl is an idiot; if she missed him this badly, she shouldn't have left without him.

"Yuhi?"

"I've found her; you two go back get some help."

That broken fence, there is a large tree not too far away. Sumire should be somewhere nearby.

"No, I-"

"Trust me," Yuhi interjected. Despite them being teammates for so long, they still had a strained relationship. Yuhi understood why. Iwa Ran's feelings towards Sumire are far stronger than the others.

"Don't lose her again."

Yuhi nodded, and he watched as the two rushed back in the direction they came from. Yuhi looked at the slope. It is too dangerous to go down using normal means. If he tries to go down, there is a high chance that he will slip.

They would have no choice but to use this route for a normal human, but he isn't normal. He turned off the blazing flames, and a strong gust of wind wraps around him. Who said all he could use is fire? To have the strength to protect her, he sacrificed a lot.

After using his wind ability, it did not take long before he reached the bottom of the slope. The sound of rushing water drew his attention, and for a moment, he panicked.

She didn't fall into the stream, did she? If she did in this cold weather, then she would freeze to death.

No, it cant be. Yuhi searched for the broken fence and eventually found it. He searched around for a few minutes before he found a huge heap of snow at the edge of the stream. There was a rock and a small tree at the edge. Yuhi spotted the red droplets of blood and bit his lip.

He extended his hand out and melted the snow away.

Sumire was there, curled in a ball shape. She hit her head against the rock, but even more than that, like Eli, she was hurt just as bad. He wished his theory was wrong. How did she even get here with such injuries? Of course, she would slip and get hurt when she isn't at full strength.

Yuhi scooped her up carefully and examined her wounds as best as he could. The head injury looks bad, but her other wounds, his gaze fell towards her leg. Is her leg broken too? He could still hear faint signs of breathing, but her pulse is far too weak.

She went to search for Mamoru. Why did she end up like this?

He needs to carry her back up using his wind. Yuhi carefully placed her on his back instead.

"Yuhi?"

At that comment, his eyes widened when he heard her faint, fairly like voice. Even though she is hurt, why does she sound so- Yuhi shook his head.

"Yes, my foolish wife?"

Sumire laughed weakly. "I'm sorry I can't see very clearly, but I knew it would be you, Yuhi."

"How come?"

"Mm, because Yuhi always rescues me. Whenever I need him the most, he is right there, no matter how far apart we are."

Yuhi wanted to ask her why she is like this. Did she meet Mamoru? That researcher most likely didn't make a mistake and found him. If they found him, why aren't they together? There were far too many questions.

"But Yuhi wasn't there when Ru attacked me."

At those words, his body turned cold, and his mind went blank. What did she just say there? Did she just say-

"Ru hurt me. But even when he did, it didn't upset me. I just thought I have to get back to Yuhi. I have to see Yuhi again. I have to tell him that I told Ru, and now we can be together properly."

Yuhi clenched his fist when he heard those words. He doesn't have a clue what is happening right now. But one thing is clear to him.

Mamoru betrayed her; that is the one thing he can never forgive.

...…

Yuhi doesnt know how they managed to get her to the hospital, but they managed it. It was already late when they arrived. When the staff at the hospital saw it was Sumire, many of them hesitated. It was stupid. They are medical staff trained to save lives; why would they hesitate?

But when a woman with red hair stepped forward and said she would take responsibility, they all changed their minds. That woman is most likely Nagawas fiance, but he didn't care for the details right now.

The next few minutes he spends alone in the waiting room is torture. He told the others to head home.

"Terashima."

He looked up and saw Nagawa and Yuhi laughed. "Weren't you busy?"

He came to the Nagawa family hospital knowing that Sano would rush over no matter where he was.

"I left, she--"

"Save her, and then you can have a proper fight with me."

Sano, however, did not respond to those words, and he placed something on his lap. "It's not like she wanted to leave without telling you." With those words, the blonde-haired man disappeared behind the operation room door.

Yuhi tears the envelope quickly.

My dearest Yuhi.

Please forgive me; you're going through so many hardships and pain because of me. But not a day has gone by since I stopped thinking about you. The way you say my name and hold me in your arms. Even now, I remember it carefully. I remember it. But you are not here. Your scent and warmth have faded from me.

Please believe me. I will always love you.

But we cannot meet. I don't want you to see me this way. I am far weaker than I am before. Take this medicine, and I am sure it will help you recover.

One day when I am stronger, I want to return to your side.

But I don't know when that will be.

Yuhi too. Don't follow me here. Even if I return, I'll only surround you with darkness. I don't want to destroy your beautiful light. I've always liked it a lot. Your strong hands made me feel safe, and the beautiful light surrounding you on stage and off.

To me, the days I spent with you and the moments you held me will always be something I treasure deeply, even if I fall into the depths of this darkness. I'm sure I will always remember you.

Ever since I left, I've always felt so cold. There have been many times where I've wanted to return just for a while, to bask in your warmth once again. This world is so cold Yuhi. . .Once again, I've been made to realize, the one I love the most will always be you.
