[ T - Teen: Not suitable for readers under 13 ]

Summary: Shuichi gives Ryuichi something he has been wanting.

"I know it's taken a long time, Ryu. I'm sorry, you know how life is, I could just never get around to it. Here it is though...not even Noriko can take it away this time." Shuichi knelt down and placed the piece of paper next to the polished stone, running his fingers over the letters forever carved into the slap. "I'm so sorry..." he whispered to the cold tombstone. He stood and placed a kiss on his fingertips before resting his hand on the top of the tomb stone. "Come on, Tatsuha. It's time to go." He reached out, tugging on the grief stricken man's arm, trying to pull him from the grave site.

Tatsuha placed a rose on the piece of paper, hugging the tombstone tightly before standing and following Shuichi, tears streaming down his cheeks. A wind kicked up, causing Shuichi to bury himself more in Eiri's borrowed coat. Behind them the paper bearing Shuichi Shindou's autograph fluttered slightly, held down by the single red rose.
