Day/Theme: Mar 20 / a ghost in me wants to say I'm sorry
Series: Junjou Romantica
Character/Pairing: Hiroki / Egoist




I don't say sorry often.

I'm not that kind of man. My pride won't let me apologize as often as I should. But that doesn't mean I don't ever feel like I should. There are plenty of times I feel like I should apologize. Every time I see your frown... the urge itches on my back, bugging me... but my pride swats it away as if it were a small fly.

But then other times, I feel a bigger urge... as if another person, my conscience perhaps, inside of me wishes I would tell you sorry.

Those times happen most when the name Usami Akihiko gets brought up... or if we pass him by or I meet up with him... and I know you hate it that Akihiko and I still meet up, but we're friends before anything else... and I know it kills you, but as much as I should apologize, I can't.

The prideful me won't allow it.
But deep inside, I know a part of me is telling you sorry.

And I'm sure you can see that. You somehow always see past my pride and straight into my heart.

No matter how much my prideful side hates that.

(THE END)

A/N: I challenged myself :3 I normally don't do 1st person. I, in fact, kind of suck at it... but this prompt was begging me to do 1st person! Let me know what you think. 8D
