Stay With Me

30|Saving You|

"(Y/n)-Chan. . .that (Y/n)-Chan. . .killed all the upper members. . .of Toman?" I said as I thought back to her. I tried to think back on what I did wrong. "I was being supportive of her that she had a choice in life. . .was there a miscommunication?" I ask myself. 

----

I took a plane to the Philippines. 

"(Y/n) was there with Shinichiro when he found the engines. She always admired him in every way. More than I did. She told me all about it with so much enthusiasm and admiration. She said; Once I get older and have my own money. I want to go back and bring Shinichiro, Emma, you, and grandfather." 

I remembered Mikey's words. This will be the first time that I meet (Y/n)-Chan's future self. As I found the spot where Mikey told me about where his older brother found the babu engines, I heard a female voice call my name. "Takemichi-Kun?" I turned my head to see her sitting on the pile of trash. I almost forgot what she looked like with long her hair. Her hair was straight black and long. Her dark eyes looked bigger than I remembered. She had a calm small smile on her face. 

I felt at a loss for words as I looked at her. I then became overwhelmed and cried a bit. "Still a crybaby, that hasn't changed." She hums. She then tells me that she has a favor to ask. "A favor?" I question. She stands up and looks up at the sky. "I came here to remember my memories with my big brother. I'm overwhelmed with many emotions." She starts. She begins to smile as she talked about how happy she was in Toman. However, her smile dropped. "Toman changed a lot," she said. "Huh?" She looks back at me. "Takemichi-Kun. . .why did you leave Toman?" I stayed silent and shocked. "I wanted us to stay together. I wanted you to stay with me as a big brother would." She said. She looks down. "I tried to make my choices, but it became more overwhelming as time went on. 'I need to choose' is what they told me. Pick someone. Mikey was trying so hard to fix things on his own, but he couldn't control everything. He didn't have enough time to even focus on me." She said. "(Y/n), what do you mean?" I ask. "Mikey tried stopping you from leaving Toman but failed miserably. He began to act like the lost puppy he was when Shinichiro died. Clinging onto me and forcing me to stay with him. Possessive. . .I thought that's how love was supposed to be. But you. . .you showed me that it wasn't supposed to be like that. Ever since big brother died, I felt like I was trapped inside a box that was slowly suffocating me. Stay. . .stay. . .stay. . .that's all they wanted from me. To stay with them." She looks at me. "I couldn't take it anymore. I needed them to be gone so I can breathe again. So. . .I killed them all." My eyes widen in shock as she admitted it. She steps closer to me. "I want you to kill me. I want it all to end here." She said. 

"I thought it would be hard to kill my twin. The one person that shared the same womb with me. That would always look and be with me. But no, I didn't feel anything at all. Instead, I felt relieved. I could breathe again. And I thought, maybe the difficulties in this world can be fixed with murder." She breathes in a little before breathing out. I then began to shout at her that she hasn't changed. That she was still the caring and lovable angel that everyone loves. She then smacks me down and presses the muzzle of the gun on my cheek. "What part of this do you not understand?!" She shouts at me. "You know, I've always been observant of people. What they were always feeling or what they were hiding. You. . .you were always hiding something. Every odd action or word you made. . .it's as if you're holding something back." She said. She then told me to pick up the gun and kill her or else I would be the one who would die. A shot was heard and I thought she pulled the trigger. "Are you okay, Takemichi?!" Naoto shouts as he held out his gun. I open my eyes and lift my head. I saw (Y/n) bleeding from her head. I cried out her name as I held her in my arms. "All my life. . .I've been suffering." She cries. I cried and told her that I could change the future for her. That I wouldn't give up on her. I would do anything to give her a good future. "So don't say such sad things." I cried waterfalls. She giggles weakly and thanks me for telling her sweet little lies. That made her happy to hear them. "Takemichi. . .your hand is. . .so warm." She said. She then went silent. "(Y/n)??" I cried. She didn't respond. I refused to believe she died, but it was the truth. Memories of her flooded my head.

"You're such a good friend. Please don't change."
