      Most say that nothing is ever bound to last, that there was no way to prevent or stop the crash. But you'd say let the rain come down and let it weaken the grounds because you could keep standing forever. You witnessed it all; from start to beginning. Black to white, your eyes could never forget how vividly he's went through all this changes. Unsure, you hesitated if he even still loved you the same way like he did before the fall began.

But he was so unbreakable, yet his heart is breaking, crumbling, and shattering. Nobody said it would be easy keeping what was held between you both though he continues to fight even then on. He cried, you cried, but you two always found a way to laugh it off, to find a reason to smile over it. Not this time.

You held his hand tightly, too afraid to even dare to release it from your grip. You were the support to his grounds, letting his stand stronger than before, never letting him fall. He was so unbreakable, yet his heart was broken still.

Tears escaped from your shut eyes as you refused to believe what was in front of you. Kaneki was bleeding so much and he was missing a few body parts; what was left of him was fatally wounded by deep cuts and gashes. He sees your crying appearance before his laying body as he reaches up with his other hand to gently touch your cheek.

"Nothing worth having is easy, but as long as we're together, we know we're unbreakable," he quietly speaks to you, despite the trouble he's having to inhale and exhale.

Slowly, opening your sadden eyes, you look at him. His hair had became that snowy-white again, his two soft gray eyes looking at you with such adoration, and that sorrowful smile on his lips made your heart flutter just slightly. Although, you could feel a pain in your chest, twisting and burning you inside out. What had he done to deserve this? Or did you deserve this truly?

You couldn't help, but release a loud, broken sob from your throat. Your throat feeling sore and rubbing raw as more tears poured from your eyes, like an undying storm raining upon the grounds. Through the tears, you could see his chest rising up and down even slower; he was fading. "Please, no," you begged with a dry voice.

He was fading, yet he didn't want to see you like this before he drifts off. With the hand that was on your cheek, he moves it to the back of your neck, guiding you down gently until you two touch lips. He kisses you gently, his lips dry and cold. You hated it, but you kiss him back, knowing this would be the last.

Once parted, you try to wipe away the tears and give him a shaky smile. He doesn't fail to return a kind smile to you as his hand slips from holding your neck and the other slips from your hand. You were too weak and vulnerable to keep firmly gripping at his own, thus his hand falling from yours. New tears fell from your eyes once more as those gray eyes became dull and finally closed.

He was gone. Nothing worth having was so easy.

And as long as you two were apart like this... You were breakable without him. A tragedy can only bend so much before it snaps.
