Utada Hikaru - Simple and clean

 

 

I laughed and tucked my ivory legs under myself as I continued to laugh, in the comfortable presence of my boyfriend, Inuyasha. He just smiled at me. Even at school, he doesn't smile. But when he's with me, he does. And I love being able to make him smile. He has done so much for me. Ever since my mom and I fought, and I moved out and into Kaede's he's helped me through it all, and I spilled all of my thoughts and fears to him.

 

You give me
too many things, lately

 

I gazed at him, and I think he noticed, as we both seemed to blush a little. I was a good 4 years younger than him, me being 15 and he was 19. He never treated me like a kid though, and besides his usually gruffness, he's somewhat kind; At least under his exterior. His eyes were what I loved the most about him though…Or maybe his pale pink lips…oh! And his long silver hair…I don't have a favorite at all! I gasped when I finally noticed that he was kneeled in front of me on the ground and his hand was holding my cheek, his thumb caressing it. I smiled warmly.

you're all I need
you smiled at me, and said

“…Don't get me wrong, I love you…
but does that mean I have to meet you father?”

 

I gasped, not expecting this. I blushed, remembering that I was expecting, and maybe hoping, for one of his sweet lingering kisses.

“…when we are older you'll understand what I meant
when I said no; I don't think life is quite that simple…”

 

I felt tears rise to my eyes as he stood, his hand slowly dropping to his side, his golden gaze piercing straight through me. I barely heard the “I'm sorry…” That he whispered, I was too wrapped up in the fact that he was walking away from me…From us…From what we have…had?...Why is he leaving me?

 

“No…Inu…yasha…”

when you walk away
you don't hear me say

“…please, oh baby don't go…”

simple and clean is the way that you're making me feel tonight
it's hard to let it go…

The next few weeks were hell, my mom antagonized me, trying to pull a guilt trip on me, calling me every few hours, harassing me…I cried so many times…I broke down…He left me…Kaede's sick…Sango is on vacation with her family…the family that I no longer have…I have no one now…So alone…

 

I sobbed on my long walk to school yet again, sobs wracking my body. I have gotten so frail….within a week…

the daily things
that keep us all busy
are confusing me

 

I stare at my math paper…I used to be so good at math…why is it now that I can't comprehend the problem. The formula…Nothing makes sense! I threw the math book and nearly broke my pencil in two with my grip as my cell phone vibrated yet again. I snapped it open, nearly screaming into the small device.

 

“What do you want?!”

 

that's when you came to me and said

 

“Hey baby…”

 

I couldn't believe my ears. “I…Is it really you? Is it really you, Inuyasha?”

I could hear his smirk through the phone. “Of course wench. I….I…I just…”

“…I wish I could prove I love you
but does that mean I have to walk on water …?
when we are older you'll understand it's enough
when i say so, and maybe
some things are that simple …”

 

He hung up soon after, letting my hopeful heart break and crack, my body limp as I sobbed for what must have been the millionth time this week.

 

“S-sissy?”

 

I wiped my tears. “Hai, Souta?”

 

My little brothers eyes started tearing up, the sweetheart. He hates it when I cry.

when you walk away
you don't hear me say
please, oh baby don't go
simple and clean is the way that you're making me feel tonight
it's hard to let it go

He practically charged at me, I fell out of my chair from the force of it. A few dry chuckles came out I think, when I fell on my bum, Souta clinging to me for dear life, like I was going to disappear before his own eyes.

 

hold me, whatever lies beyond this morning
is a little later on
regardless of warnings
the future doesn't scare me at all
nothing's like before

when you walk away
you don't hear me say
please, oh baby don't go

“Simple and clean is the way that you're making me feel tonight…and it's just hard to let it go…”
