It felt like it hadn’t been that long ago that they had that final conversation. Certainly not years.
But it had been, and the seasons that followed had both dragged on and raced by, as he passed each day marking time, hoping to eventually reach the day when the world would right itself. When he would come home, and say sorry, and they could finally heal together. If he waited long enough, that day would have to come.
And the seasons changed, and the wounds on his heart slowly scarred up, but he continued to wait, until the day he began to think that he must be stronger than this. Until the day he got tired of expecting him to return and pick him up, and he struggled to his feet and thought, I can stand without him.
All those days he’d lost while waiting stretched out before him. Days he could have spent at things he enjoyed. Days he could have met new friends or found new hobbies. Instead, he’d given those days to the man who had left him months, years, before. The man he would always love…but who would never return the feelings.
Love wasn’t a good enough reason to spend his life simply trying to get days and months and years over with. He was waiting on a day that would never arrive. ‘Never’ was too long of a time.
The scars would remain and a hidden, secret part of his heart would always hope for the past back, but he could no longer indulge the pain.
The seasons were passing away, and he could spare no more time for waiting.

Notes: Felt like saddling everyone with some real-world angst, because today is Burn-Down-Your-House-And-Join-The-Military Day! And what better day for angst than BDYHAJTM Day? 8D
Love doesn’t always last, especially first love. Even if the first one seems like ‘the one’ (as I usually present Yami and Yugi) there’s no guarantee. I feel that the shipping of any couple also encompasses what will happen if the couple breaks up, thus, this was born. You get to decide which “he” is which. (I had Yami in mind.) With the deadline for this theme approaching I sort of forced this out...so again, not one of the better themes. ^^;;
