There was just a few weeks until August begins, the sunny, clear sky can be seen as the hot summer air surrounded them. They only had about a month until school began again, and they wanted to make the most of it. Soraru was walking around the town with the guys. They never seem to leave me be.

"Well sucks for you."

"Urata, shut it."

The brunette stuck out his tongue as the raven-haired rolled his eyes. The others decided to head to the park to hang out, though Soraru would very much like to stay in his cool, air conditioned home and play video games than go there. He noticed that the red eyed brunette was looking around the area, admiring the flowers that had bloomed in spring.

"You seem to enjoy the flowers."

Amatsuki turned to face the raven-haired, he was slightly blushing in embarrassment.

"They look so pretty, they would be a nice gift to give to someone."

"So basically you want Kashi to give you flowers?"

Soraru snickered as the red eyed brunette's face turned red. Amatsuki glared at the raven-haired male, though it didn't affect Soraru.

They made it to the playground, kids could be seen running around while the adults talk amongst themselves. Other teens were sitting around, Mafu went straight for the swings as the other eight laughed at his energetic personality.

"School begins in one month. I don't wanna go back~" Amatsuki whined, Sakata and Shima nodded their heads in agreement.

"You guys seriously are— never mind." Senra decided it was best to just leave them be.

"Why did we have to come to the park?" Soraru said in annoyance as he was leaning on the swing set poles. He saw no point in coming and didn't want to be here at all.

"Because we have to stop being shut-ins and go outside." Mafu exclaimed as Soraru gave him a blank expression.

"Says the one that was whining earlier about wanting to stay home instead." Soraru mumbled to himself but Mafu managed to catch it. The albino blushed and smacked the raven-haired's arm, as his swing was close to Soraru.

"Wwww I bet you're secretly happy that you get to spend more time with Mafu~"

Urata teased the raven-haired, Soraru felt his ears warm up and glared at the brunette. Soraru sighed as he stared at the swing sets, he looked away in discomfort. Luz was looking at the raven-haired worriedly, he walked up to him to whisper in his ear.

"Hey Soraru, are you okay with being here?"

Soraru looked at the light haired male for a second before realizing what he meant. He then moved his gaze down on the ground as he crossed his arms.

"Not really..."

"You don't have to force yourself to be here with us."

Luz looked at his friend with eyes filled with concern and worry. He knew that the raven-haired had bad memories with parks after what happened. Soraru looked at Luz and gave a small smile. The raven-haired ruffled the light haired male's hair. Luz just laughed, it felt like old times. Urata smiled at the sight, if only things didn't change.

The others were watching the two males in amusement. Mafu stared at the two, he felt a sharp uneasiness in his heart. At first he thought it was because Soraru was acting friendly towards Luz, but he felt he same feeling when he saw Luz look at the raven-haired with a warm smile.

"You two seem a bit more talkative then usual." Shima commented as the two males looked at them.

"We do?" Luz titled his head.

"I don't think I've seen Soraru smile at all." Amatsuki said, the raven-haired gave them an expressionless face.

"Cause I rarely have any reason to smile."

Nqrse and Urata both had faces of pity after hearing the raven-haired's words. They knew what he meant by that phase, it was hard for him to put effort in things if they'd be forgotten by others eventually.

"What do you mean?" Senra questioned the raven-haired, who mentally facepalmed himself for slipping up a bit.

"Just some bad memories, it's not important. Anyways I'm leaving."

"E-Eh?" Sakata made a confused noise as the others looked at the raven-haired in surprise.

"But we just got here." Kashitaro said, Luz turned to look at them with a serious stare.

"I think it's okay, we shouldn't force him to stay."

"Well that's true." Shima said in a defeated tone.

"See ya guys later."

Soraru then got up from his leaning position and walked away from them. The longer he stayed there, the more he'd feel like he was suffocating. Mafu watched the raven-haired leave, he noticed that Soraru seemed a bit stressed and uncomfortable. Why is that?

"Luz, care to explain?" Mafu asked the light haired male, who fidgeted a bit under their stares.

"U-Um.....he just has a bad memory with parks. It's not really my place to tell you guys."

"Oh." Amatsuki said in realization. Nqrse just sighed as he glanced at Urata, who hadn't left with the raven-haired.

"Shouldn't you go with him?"

"That could make the memories worst."

Urata turned his attention to the other guys, they seemed to feel a bit guilty about bringing the raven-haired. Nqrse noticed their down moods and spoke up.

"I'm sure he isn't mad at us. He went with us, even though he has bad memories, so he probably would've liked to hang out with us."

"True, it is refreshing to know that he seems to care." Kashitaro said, Amatsuki looked at the direction the raven-haired had gone.

"Should we follow him?" Amatsuki asked as Luz shook his head.

"He'll probably wait by the park entrance for us once we decide to leave."

"Okay."

They guys were enjoying their time at the park while Soraru was off somewhere. Mafu was staring off into the distance, his thoughts went back to the raven-haired, he was wondering what could've happened to make Soraru seem to have a fear of parks. They were there for a while before they decided to leave.

"Ama, tell Soraru we're leaving." Mafu ordered the red eyed brunette.

"Eh? Why me?"

"Because I'm too tired to grab my phone."

"Seriously.....fine." Amatsuki took out his phone to text the raven-haired.

Amatsuki: where are you

Soraru: why do you want to know

Amatsuki: we're leaving the park

Soraru: oh

Amatsuki: tell me~

Soraru: just by the park entrance

"See. I told you~"

Luz boasted as he saw the conversation between the red eyes brunette and Soraru. The others rolled their eyes.

"Well let's go." Sakata said as they walked out of the park.

They had made it to the entrance but didn't see the raven-haired. They looked around the area to see if they had missed him.

"Weird, he said he was waiting here." Amatsuki looked at his phone again to make sure he didn't read it wrong.

"Should we go look for him? He couldn't have just left?" Sakata asked.

"Yeah."

"Shouldn't one of us stay here in case he comes back?" Luz asked as the others nodded.

"Amatsuki can stay." Mafu said as he looked at the red eyed brunette.

Amatsuki agreed, though he felt a cold chill down run down his spine, confusing him a bit. The guys then walked away to see if the raven-haired was nearby. Urata was confused on why the raven-haired wasn't there. He was looking around the area for a while until he found Soraru, who was walking by.

"There you are asshole."

"Eh?"

"How dare you ditch us."

"What do you mean?"

"Huh?"

Urata looked at the raven-haired confused as he saw the perplexed look on Soraru's face.

"I was walking around town while waiting for you guys and decided to go back right now."

"But you texted us saying you were by the park entrance."

"What?"

Soraru went to grab his phone, but he felt nothing in his pockets. He was frantically looking for it, like it'd magically appear but no luck. The raven-haired was confused.

"I don't have my phone."

"E-Eh?"

Soraru was thinking back to where he could've left it. He widened his eyes. N-No. No.no.no.no.no! He looked at Urata with a panicked expression on his face.

"Did the guys decide to look for me?"

"Y-Yep."

"Shit."

"W-What's wrong?"

"T-This isn't happening......not now."

Soraru ran past the brunette as he headed towards the park entrance. Urata was utterly confused, but after hearing the last part of the raven-haired's words, he widened his eyes in realization. Urata frantically followed the raven-haired, the chill air around them was confirming their thoughts. Soraru made it to the entrance and saw Amatsuki.

"Eh? Soraru?"

The red eyed brunette was surprised when the raven-haired grabbed his hand. Soraru was beginning to drag him as Amatsuki took a few seconds to process what was happening.

"Where are we going?"

"I seemed to have lost my phone so I ran here hoping I'd find one of you guys to help me look for it."

"Eh? But didn't you text us before?"

"Someone must've taken it and decided to trick you guys."

"R-Really?" Amatsuki's voice was shaking a bit.

"The others are looking for me right?"

"Oh yeah. I should tell them I found you." Amatsuki took out his phone and texted the guys.

Amatsuki: soraru is here with me

Mafu: eh? you found him

Kashitaro: nice job ama

Luz: hit him in the head for making us worried

Sakata: isnt that a bit much

Luz: he needs to be punished for making me panicked

Mafu: yeah! we thought something bad couldve happened to him

Soraru was annoyed at the fact that the guys were blaming him. Though that annoyance was replaced with uneasiness again. Amatsuki texted them what happened, the guys all replied in shock and slight fear. Amatsuki put his phone away as he turned to face the raven-haired.

"They said that they'd come back here."

"Okay."

"Wonder who could've taken your phone? Do you know where you could've dropped it?"

"Probably at a cafe."

"Eh? You went to a cafe and didn't get us anything. How rude~"

Amatsuki's playful tone made Soraru calm down a bit. He was glad to know that they were all okay at the moment. Urata was still uneasy about the situation, he thought on why someone would text the guys using Soraru's phone. What benefit would they get?

"So what are you going to do about your phone—"

Soraru had backed away so the sharp blade wouldn't hit him or Amatsuki, but it seemed like it managed to cut the red eyed brunette a bit. Amatsuki winced at the sharp pain as he held his arm. Both males looked to see it was the girl from back then at the arcade. She was holding a small switchblade, with an emotionless look in her eyes.

"Were you looking for this?" She held out the raven-haired's phone in her hand. Soraru glared at her.

"So you did take it."

"I'm not giving up on Amatsuki." She swung at them, but the two males were quick and dodged the blade.

"O-Oi! He doesn't have feelings for you so don't force them on him."

Soraru stood in front of the brunette. Hurry up guys. The raven-haired was hoping people would notice the commotion and call the police or something. He saw that people were looking at them, passersby all looked at them in horror. One of them took out their phone to call the police.

"Don't tell me my feelings are worthless."

"S-Soraru. We should just run." Amatsuki grabbed the raven-haired's hand, it was the wrong move because it agitated the girl even more.

"If I can't have him, then I'll get rid of any obstacles."

"T-This girl is sick!"

"Look just calm down."

Soraru was hoping to stall time until the others came. Why is fate so fucking cruel? Soraru was frustrated that he had to go through this.

"Look, I'm sorry I can't return the feeling but you shouldn't be obsessed with someone if there's a chance they'll not return the feelings. You'll get hurt."

The girl's grip on the weapon faltered as she heard the red eyed brunette's words. She shook her head and lunged at Soraru again, who struggled to get the blade out of her grasp. She moved her hand, Soraru felt a sharp pain again. He pushed her off, her blade falling out of her grasp. He tried to quickly kick it away from her, but she reached it in time.

The raven-haired felt a pain in his leg making him unable to move. He was expecting the stab but felt nothing. N-No... Amatsuki was in front of him as the girl just stared in shock. The red eyed brunette had taken the hit for him. Urata widened his eyes in fear, w-why? Amatsuki fell to the ground as the girl dropped her weapon, just as the police arrived to restrain her.

"Amatsuki?"

Soraru turned his head after hearing Mafu's voice to see the guys standing there in shock. Nqrse looked at the laying Amatsuki before looking at Soraru. The pink haired male could see the fear in the raven-haired's eyes.

"A-Amatsuki!" Kashitaro ran to the brunette's body, followed by the others.

"W-What happened?" Senra asked the raven-haired, but when he heard no response he looked at Soraru, only to see the raven-haired look scared.

"S-Soraru?" Luz said in a worried voice.

"S-Soraru! Snap out of it!"

Urata grabbed the raven-haired by his shoulders and shook him. Soraru just continued to stare at the dead body in front of him.

"Soraru! Just reset already!"

Soraru snapped out of his daze and began to shake. Nqrse looked at him pitifully, he's feeling so much pain at the moment. Soraru took a few deep breathes, the commotion around them was chaotic.

"R-Right..."

The raven-haired just sighed as he felt his tattoo burn. Mafu saw that the raven-haired looked like he was going to pass out.

"Soraru?"

The raven-haired couldn't hear him as he felt himself lose conscious. Soraru fell to the ground as the world became black.
