Chapter 349 - I would do anything

*UNEDITED*

"I think I can tell you this clearly now but you know of the reason why we created Over The Moon instead of debuting as solo artists correct?"

Over the Moon is Taiga's group. It made more sense for Taiga to be a member of the entertainment industry than him.

Yang nodded.

Taiga turned to him and looked at him with a serious expression, "It's because the three of us loved Setsura."

… The three…. Although he had a gut feeling about Taiga before, he didn't think the same applied to the other two and even if he did, that feeling disappeared in a instance whenever he thought of his real competition.

"We each met her differently, all under different circ.u.mstances, and the extent of our relationsh.i.p.s with her was all different and yet we fell in love with her. We all fell in love with her despite knowing that her gaze would always be somebody else's.. We all desired to protect her even though we knew she was stronger than us."

"I don't think that girl realized how popular she was with other guys."

Taiga laughed, "Well, she's always had a strange negative mindset."

A negative mind set huh? Taiga and the other guys don't know about Setsura's depression. But, if they learned about it then what would they do? How would they react? Would they handle it better than him? What a stupid question to ask, of course they would.

The same as him. Whether or not Taiga knows about the details, his words right now are acting as a mirror to the events that occurred then. The events that occurred before he made his decision to remain by her side.

"But regardless we still fell in love with her. We fought constantly,suffered quite a bit and yet we stuck to our convictions. That girl has changed quite a bit since she was involved with all of us - the three of us compared it instantly and found her change became more notable when she met you again. "

"Don't..."

Taiga shook his head and clasped his hands on both his shoulders. "That girl is in love with you. She loves you a lot and I'm sure you've heard this a bunch of times already, but the one she loves now is you. No matter how important Akito presence in her heart is growing - the one she's fighting for, the one she's singing for now is you Yang, you have to truly face it."

"What are you trying to say?"

"I'm telling you to stop acting so unreasonable around her. Your behaviour lately is appalling, I'm surprised she hasn't dumped you yet. Yes this maybe harsh, but your treating her terribly. Are you even treating her as a human being right now?"

Yang averted his gaze, "I'm not trying to hurt her."

"Keep convincing yourself. Besides you don't have to try to hurt her anymore, your hurting her."

"Did she complain?"

Taiga sighed, "You still don't get it idiot? Why would she complain. She is forgiving you for everything. You and I know Setsura very well, so I don't have to say this.

His companion did not wait for a response and let him go. Taiga stood up and made his way down the hallway.

Yang slumped on the ground and extended his hand out. The one she's in love with. He knew about it for the longest of time the feelings she had for him. Back then too during their partnership, he saw how their relationship was slowly changing and thus when the opportunity arose he ran away. Because he didn't want to admit it, he didn't want to admit it - that he too had fallen for her.

Back then, she always spoke about that guy, about the 'childhood friend' who's mysterious and yet childish. Often when they had breaks she would talk about him and it was during one of those talks where he caught her out, ' Are you perhaps in love with that guy?' She didn't have to respond, her fl.u.s.tered cheeks and her stammering was enough for him to understand that it's impossible.

That's right he confirmed it then; and yet the more time they spent with each other. Yang realized that the girls feelings and her actions towards him had changed. He wanted to embrace her the girl in his arms too, he wanted to be able to hold on to her like the other guys did. However he couldn't do it, she will always like that other guy better.

Even now he's still a petty person huh?

But even now he cannot hide it, the feelings for her that grow constantly. Yang sighed, what a messy situation. Sure he followed her back to the future to watch over her. However, he had another reason why he came here.

"Did you hear? The building opposite got blown up."

The building opposite?

Yang immediately stood up, 'it can't be right?' However, he saw a crowd of people gathering towards the windows. He did the same and went over.

"Idiot! It was just a portion of the building."

He looked over and indeed saw what everybody was talking about. It was indeed a portion of the building. However, that part of the building.. Isn't that where Setsura is?

He in the balcony area of a tall building overlooking the town, he gripped the railing. There definitely here, there's no doubt about it. He could sense it clearly, that eventually grey skies will cloud Tokyo. It just has to happen now. It just has to happen when she's here, it has to happen during the time period she is here. The last time was close he barely managed to protect her, it was close far too close.

' That girl's life is already one that will be coloured with darkness. Her destiny foretolls a clear bad omen, a cloud this large won't disappear.'

Even so sensei, even so sensei he wants to be able to do something for her sake.

If he can help her, he would do anything.

He would do anything.

After all he had already abandoned her once before due to his selfish desires. He took out the paperback from his bag. It was a letter - no a series of letters that Setsura wrote for him
