He was quiet and Yuki mentally cursed himself. He had told himself he only wanted to see Snow smile and he'd used Serah selfishly as a shield to hide. And there he went, hurting the only one who'd been the soul of kindness itself to him. Damn him would he ever learn..

Yuki lowered his head and shook it after Snow got up. He wanted to reach out for the other but wasn't sure if he'd hurt Snow far too much. "No..I'm sorry. I'm bringing up a subject you..you couldn't possibly have an answer to. And I'm not dismissing anything you said."

Again he wasn't sure he was saying anything right because everything felt like it was coming out all wrong. "If..if I'm not allowed to run..I want.." And somehow Yuki took the steps to stand behind Snow and reached up to grab a fistful of the other's coat, while placing his head against Snow's back, and his voice dropped to a whisper. "Please..don't..leave..don't..don't go."
