Guys, I don't think Sanami Matoh will give me Dee and Ryo now, since I'm putting them through hell....It's not my fault, I couldn't help it, I swear! *~o~,*
I don't own these lyrics either, for the fourth time *^-^*

My Immortal
By: Kit_Yang
The picture was by far a favorite of Dee's...it showed how happy the two men were back then...only now, it showed Dee...
The remainder of the day slowly turned into night...a time where people could hide, and not have to worry about the next day. A time, where no one had to worry about their joys or sorrows. A time where everything stood still...
/I'm so tired of being here
suppressed by all my childish fears
and if you have to leave/
Surrounded by the comfort of his bedroom, Ryo sat on the edge of his bed...in his hand was the exact same picture Dee had. 'Funny, I was in this same situation a week ago...how'd things end up like this? how'd things become so messed up? Ne...Dee...do you think of me? Do you long for my kisses as much as I long for yours? Do you...still care?' Ryo thought sadily.
'Is this what love really is? If so, then I'm afraid...if it's going to be this painful...if it's going to hurt this much, I'd want to give up...I'm not strong enough to deal with it...please Dee...save me' Without removing his gaze from his picture, Ryo sat alone in the warmth of his room, waiting for his savior to come.
/I wish that you would just leave
'cause your presence still lingers here
and it won't leave me alone/
Drowning down the last bottle of beer, Dee Laytner laid his head against the corner. Watching the shadows slowly rise from every corner of his apartment, the dark-haired man prayed for solitude. Feeling the alcohol take effect, luring him soon into deep sleep, a vision of Ryo appeared before Dee's eyes. As if he was seeing Ryo for the last time, Dee stretched his arms out to caress Ryo's cheek, not knowing it was just an illusion...an illusion he dreamed to help ease the pain in his heart.
Touching the cheek lovingly, Dee poured his heart out and whispered, "Ni...Ryo...is it really you?...can you forgive me?...I know I promised...but it's just so hard...it's so hard not to touch you when you're near...it's so hard to get by...knowing you're so close and yet...so far away..."
Unexpectedly, the tears Dee thought he had all cried out started to flow once more...blurring his vision of Ryo. As Ryo slowly disappeared from Dee's sight, the green-eyed detective closed his eyes and gave into the pain.
'I'm losing him...he's going away...and he's taking my heart' Dee realized. Hoping he could forget his partner once and for all, the dark-haired detective laid in the dark, awaiting the arrival of one person...Ryo.
/These wounds won't seem to heal
This pain is just too real
There's just too much that time cannot erase/
"Why do you do this to yourself?" asked a girl quietly as she sat down beside Ryo. Wrapping her fragile arms around him, Carol laid her head on Ryo's chest and cried. Hearing the sad cries that echoed beside him, Ryo looked into Carol's eyes and replied tonelessly,"Nani?"
"There's no need to punish yourself any longer..." tears dropping, Carol continued,"You don't need to deprive yourself of Dee's love anymore...you don't need to sit here and regret..." Carol continued weakly.
"Carol..." Ryo softly replied.
"He NEEDS you Ryo! and...YOU need him...I can see it everytime I look into your eyes...they're pleading for Dee to come to you...so please...don't do this to yourselves...Dee...Dee's suffering too..." With that, Carol closed her eyes in anguish.
"Gomen Carol...I just...I don't know what to do anymore" Cried Ryo, hugging Carol to his chest. 'I don't know what to do...I don't know where to turn' Ryo thought silently. Witnessing the sadness that clouded Ryo's eyes, Carol hugged Ryo tighter, lending him some of her strength.
Seeing his father and friend embracing each other for strength, Bikky felt his heart tear apart. Twice, he's had to comfort Ryo and assure him everything was going to be okay. Raised from the slums, Bikky wasn't one to show emotions, but for Ryo, he'd do anything. Unable to watch the two people he loved cry, Bikky's eyes watered as he approached them. Slowly walking to the edge of the bed, Bikky held them both and shared their pain. For the first time in his life, the boy felt no shame in showing his feelings.
/When you cried I'd wipe away all of your tears
When you'd scream I'd fight away all of your fears
I held your hand through all of these years
but you still have...all of me/
The hour grew late, as the sky gradually became darker. One by one, stars came out to greet the city of New York. Wishing to see Carol off safely, Ryo strapped on his gun and decided to walk her home. The streets of New York were unsafe for a young girl, especially at night. After walking a couple of blocks, Ryo made sure Carol was at the front step of her home. Before going inside, Carol hoped Ryo would listen to his heart and told him so.
"You know Ryo...people say that when you have nowhere else to turn, you should follow your heart. Even though it may seem hopeless and be hard, it's sure to get you somewhere...somehow, someway." Kissing his cheeks, Carol quietly went inside, ushering Ryo a 'goodnight'.
Thinking about Carol's advice, Ryo couldn't help but hope everything would turn out alright. Wanting to clear his head, Ryo started walking...to where? he had no clue. He hoped his legs would carry him anywhere...anywhere but home, where Dee wasn't there. Unexpectedly, Ryo arrived at the park where he shared his first kiss with Dee. Reminscing the past, Ryo stood still...lost in time.
/You used to captivate me
by your resonating life
now I'm bound by the life you left behind/
He remembered they had just escaped from bombing the Fieldman residence. Seems like Dee and Bikky were confined in a room underneath the attic where Ryo planted a bomb. After running and shooting at whoever got in their way, the three were surrounded in front of the house. Like the typical fun guy Dee was, the man pulled out a his "trigger" of a pen and threatened to bomb the house.
'Just like him, to rush into action without thinking first' Ryo smiled sadly.
True to his words, the house blew up, catching the attention of New York's 27th precinct. Not wanting to be yelled by the chief, Dee took Ryo's arm and dragged him into the park. There, on the spot between the trees was the first time Dee kissed Ryo. It was a warm kiss that filled Ryo's body with love. It became a kiss Ryo never forgot. Lost in his thoughts, Ryo didn't notice when a certain someone approached him.
/Your face it haunts
my once pleasant dreams
Your voice it chased away
all the sanity in me/
"It's awful late for you to be out, don't you think detective McLean?"
The familiar voice took Ryo by surprise. He turned around to find none other than Dee's mother. In her arms were a couple of kid books. They weren't old, nor were they new. Ryo was shocked to see a book among the ones Mother held. It was a book of fairy tales he used to read, filled with stories of wizards and sorceresses, knights and evil dragons, but most of all...love.
Tearing his gaze from the books, Ryo asked mother,"What are YOU doing out this late? Dee would have a heart attack if he knew you were out this late."
"I won't be the only person he'd be worried about" Mother replied with a smile. Seeing the the hurt expression on Ryo's face, Mother comforted Ryo by reaching an arm out and touching him on the arm. With a simple gesture, she turned to leave.
Not wanting Mother to run into trouble, Ryo assisted mother in carrying her books and escorting her to the safety of the orphanage. Finally, arriving at the doorstep, Ryo handed the books back to Mother. With a tender smile, Mother caressed Ryo's cheek with one hand and ushered him the same words she gave him some time ago.
"I'm not the type to judge. If two people need eachother, then it doesn't matter if they're both men or women. Discover what feels right to your heart for yourself. And when you do, then share those feelings with Dee." With a kiss on his cheek, Mother thanked Ryo and went inside.
/These wounds won't seem to heal
This pain is just too real
There's just too much that time cannot erase/
Watching her leave, Ryo's eyes watered as Mother's words touched his heart. 'Discover what feels right to your heart for yourself'...
'It's not that easy' thought Ryo. Unsure of what else he should do, Ryo started walking once more, to a destination unknown.
Not knowing where he was headed, Ryo ended up at Dee's apartment. Staring outside the building, Ryo thought it was dark and silent. As if he was afraid the empty complex would swallow him, Ryo remained still as he fought about what he should do. Forcing himself to enter the building and climbing the steps that led to Dee, Ryo continued with a heavy heart. 'I'm going to see him...and when I do, I'll beg for his forgiveness...I'll tell him I love him...that I never stopped these past 2 years...that I never will...even if he doesn't want me back...'
/When you cried I'd wipe away all of your tears
When you'd scream I'd fight away all of your fears
I held your hand through all of these years
but you still have...all of me/
Knocking on Dee's door, Ryo wasn't surprised there wasn't an answer. After all he put Dee through, he was sure Dee wouldn't want to be bothered. Knocking a couple more times, Ryo turned the knob only to find the door was unlocked. Afraid that Dee may be in trouble, Ryo called his name out, only to receive no answer. Stepping into the silent apartment, Ryo took out his gun and searched every dark corner until his gun pointed at Dee. The blonde's heart skipped as he saw his partner resting against the wall.
Taking in the sight of his beloved, Ryo walked over and sat in front of Dee: one hand holding the gun and the other touching Dee's midnight locks. Noticing the dried tear marks on Dee's face, Ryo whispered half-heartedly, "Thank God you're okay...gomen Dee, I've put you through hell...you never did anything wrong...it was me...will you forgive me?" Ryo thought shakeningly as he saw pain reflect on Dee's face.
Deep in his dreams, Dee was dragged out from his drunken sleep by a voice he longed to hear. It was a voice that drove him insane...a voice that would not leave him alone, no matter how much he begged. Following it, Dee left his dreams behind and opened his eyes. Tears fell from them as he saw Ryo again.
Slowly, Dee grabbed Ryo by the shoulders and held him in a tight grip. Drowning at the sight of the black-eyed man, Dee started to cry as he touched Ryo's lovely face.
"Ryo?...are you really here?...why?...ni, Ryo...why do you come here?...Do you do it deliberatly?...does it make you happy to see me fall to pieces?...or do you want my soul?...if so, then take it..." Dee said as he grabbed Ryo's pistol-held hand and aimed it to his heart.
/I've tried so hard to tell myself that you're gone
but though you're still with me
I've been alone all along/
Trying to control himself, Dee poured his whole heart out.
"Go ahead...if it's you, I don't care...at least you'll be the one freeing me from all this suffering...do you know what it feels like Ryo?...to be alive and dead at the same time?...to be awake and yet asleep?...it's too much...I'm not that strong...heh...my heart is getting weaker this minute."
Panicking, Ryo tried to remove his arm only to have it held tighter. Shaking his head back and forth, Ryo frantically struggled to free his arm from Dee's tight grip.
"Ni...Dee...let go..." Ryo cried.
"Pull the trigger Ryo...I can't take it anymore..." Dee stared Ryo with hopeless eyes, hoping the blonde man would end everything once and for all.
"I'm so tired...I'm so tired of all this...I can't sleep, I can't think 'cuz all I think about is you...and here you are, driving me crazy...if you don't love me, leave alone...why TOY with me?!!!!
/When you cried I'd wipe away all of your tears
When you'd scream I'd fight away all of your fears
I held your hand through all of these years
but you still have...all of me/
Without giving a chance to reply, Dee pulled Ryo into his arms as sobs shook his body. "If death feels like this, then I don't want to endure it...help me end all this pain...hurry up and do it before I lose control and make you hate me even more...hurry before I bleed my heart out before you...if you won't do it, then please,just this once...won't you let me hold you one last time...let me kiss you one last time...let me love you one last time...let me be with you one...last...time...that way, I'll be able to let go..." Dee sobbed brokenly as he fell into deep sleep.
Falling onto Ryo's chest, Dee gave in to exhaustion. 'How did we end up like this?...how?...' Crying uncontrollably, Ryo hugged Dee to his chest and gave in to his tears.
"Gomen Dee! gomen...aishite iru! aishite iru Dee, do you hear me?" Ryo cried rocking Dee back and forth in his arms. "I'll say it as many times as you want to hear it! I'll tell you everyday at work...or when we eat dinner...or when we're together...I'll even tell you when you're being obnoxious and annoying...I'll never have you doubt my love again...Ni...Dee?...do you hear me? aishite iru, aishite iru, aishite iru...." Ryo continued to chant as his voice gradually faded.
Sobs continued to be heard throughout the empty apartment as Randy "Ryo" McLean held Dee lovingly in his arms. Shaking from emotion, Ryo held on tight...as if he was never going to let go.
/you still have...all of me/
Morning brought forth rays of light that chased away shadows of the night. Opening his swollen eyes, Dee woke up...only to be greeted with a warm loving smile, and eyes that always seemed to captivate him.
"Aishite iru, Dee...aishite iru..."
Tears of joy fell as Dee and Ryo embraced eachother. Finally, the two found love and happiness in the comfort of one another's arms...

Aftertalk: *^-^*
I'm so proud of myself! Another chapter finished, and I'm actually not crying! Wow, you guys are good! Some of ya'll actually read my mind... I'm sorry if I put all of ya through hell, but I thought to myself, Hey, if "I" have to suffer writing it, then "YOU" guys should suffer reading it! HEH HEH...anyways I'm debating whether I should write one more chapter, kinda like an epilogue or just keep this ending...what do you guys think?
Once again, for the fourth time, ARIGATOU for reading, reviewing, and being such great sports! +<*^o^*>+ Here's a BIG hug from me!
