Kira's POV

August 17,2025

I still haven't forgot when Teito whispered he loved me when he thought I was asleep.I act like I'm fine but I'm starting to question our friendship now.

I mean, when I was younger, I felt as if I was in love with him but I learned soon after that it was just because of Loyal Friend.And plus, he was one of the only boys close to my age I've ever seen in my life.He was the second boy I actually met so of course I'd have feelings for him since I was young and didn't know what the feeling was.Right?

I pulled off my NearveGear, sighing as I placed it on my nightstand.Along with my NearveGear was a bowl of rice with gravy over it, the way I like it, on the nightstand.

'Teito must've brought it in while I was in ALO.'I thought, picking up the bowl and the chopsticks.

I gingerly took it and wolfed it down.

'All this thinking is making me hungry and tiered.'I though.

Instead of asking Teito for more food, I just layer down on my bed.

'He has a lot more to think about, like about paying the bills, though, about ¥10,000 comes in through the mail box every day so he should be okay with money.'I thought, heaving another sigh.

I stared at my ceiling.

'When was the last time I eat a proper meal? Or took a bath? Or brushed my teeth? What happened to me?'I asked myself.

You're useless right now, thanks to me.This is the best work I've gotten out of you.Depression said, as if he were proud of the state I was.

Which he pretty much was.

'Go away.'I ordered, rolling over onto my other side.

I can eleven go away, I'm one with you.Come'on, why not sneak out and get drunk? You are 17 after all.Depression said, trying to get me to fall into temptation.

'17 is still too young.'I stated.

[Guys, does anyone know the actual age people in Japan are allowed to drink?]

So? If you were in school, SAO school, than you would probably be drinking already, a lot of kids your age drink underage.Depression said in a know it all voice.

'Just shut up.'I thought, letting out an actual threat growl.

Nope.Just fall asleep and then you don't have to worry about the rest.I'll get your body back here well before 5, 3 hours before Teito wakes up.Depression said.

'What are you planing on doing?!'I shouted in horror.

But Depression was forcing me to sleep.My eyes started to droop.

Don't worry, everything will be perfectly fine.Depression said.

But I could tell he was laying, along with his evil smile.

And with that though in mind, I was consumed by a past that seemed like a horrible dream gone wrong.

Flashback

Kira age:4(one year before her mother died)
"Nathan, we're gonna get married when we're older, aren't we?"I asked the gold haired boy next to me.

He turned away from the amazing sunset and looked at me with a close eyes smile with a nod.

"Oh, wouldn't they make a perfect couple? They get along so well."Nathan's mother asked mine.

But we ignored them, lost in our own world.

"Yup! And we're gonna have children, more than we can count, and live happily ever after!"Nathan said, holding out his pinky."But you've gotta pinky promise me that you won't forget that we're getting married, k?"Nathan said.

I nodded my head in agreement as we we rapped our pinkies together.

But that time never came.

End Flashback

I woke up with a start, spitting up a little too fast because I got a headache.

The room was spinning.

I clutched my forehead, looking around and saw that Depression was actually true to his words, he got me home in time.

Suddenly, I gat the urge to throw up and I jumped out of my bed and barely made it to the toilet in time as I threw up.

It wasn't regular puke, it reeked of alcohol.

'WHAT DID YOU DO?!'I screamed at Depression, throwing up some more.

I let you have fun! You should be thanking me!Depression shouted, his sickening laugh echoing through my head.

'Y-you bast-'My own thoughts were in interrupted as I threw up again.

Ha! Looks as if you had more fun than you thought! I was surprised at how much you drank last night.But, all I can say it that you can't hold you're drink, that's for sure!Depression laughed.

I leaned over the toilet, afraid that if I left it, I'd start puking again.

Finally, after what felt like hours, I finally brushed my hair and teeth and shuffled back to my bed,laying down.

I looked above my door, were  a clock hung.

'8:14, Teito should be coming in any moment.'I thought, sighing.

My brain was all fuzzy, I forgot all that happened last night a few other memories.

'Why am I avoid Teito again? What was it he whispered to me when he thought I was asleep?'My memories were just all hazy.

'Maybe, if I sleep,they're return.'I thought, falling asleep, hating the taste of the remaining alcohol in my mouth.

And right before I fell asleep, I remember reading a name tag at the bar I went to, it was one of the bartenders names.

It was slightly blurry in my memory but the first letter was defiantly N.

I fell asleep, wanting to escape the pain.
