A/N: Inspired by Savage Genius's song, 'Maze'.
Enjoy!
Ryutaro smirked; dirt covered him as he fell down onto the ground. His eyes reflected fatigue, anger, lost, betrayal. A bitter chuckle escaped his dried lips as he looked at the birds fly freely in the sky. Clouds were moving peacefully, and as Ryutaro looked around, all he saw was a maze.
A maze that he was now held captive in.
People walking stared at the young guy that had just collapsed in the middle of the road. His eyes were unfocused, and they noticed dried tear tracks down his cheeks. The boy’s hair was a mess. No, the boy himself was a mess.
They could only hear the soft whimpers and make out a name.
The boy just continuously called out for another person; a person named Keito.
He feels helpless. This vast world, these people walking pass him, they are part of the maze. They were his obstacle.
They were his obstacle to his goal, which was the center of the maze. And what was his goal?
Okamoto Keito.

Fluttering touches were exchanged, soft kisses planted on each other’s lips. Fingers interlocked each other, and both boys looked into each other’s eyes lovingly. It was then; Ryutaro hoped that time could’ve stopped.

If only he had invited Keito to stay overnight. If he had done that, he wouldn’t be stuck in this endless maze.
He wouldn’t be stuck in this endless maze where finding Keito was his goal.
A small smile grazed his lips as he took another deep breath. He felt something tugging his chest as he remembers how soft Keito’s lips were, against his. How warm Keito’s body was.
And how that warm body of his was flung lifelessly across the road, how Keito paled significantly, how the body temperature of the older guy dropped. How Keito laid limp in his arms; as Ryutaro started to screamed and shouted into the night.
The sound of horns echoed, screams of horror erupted from by-standers. There Ryutaro lay still in the middle of the road. For him, everything was now in peace.
He had reached the center of the maze. Vaguely, he saw Keito, and he smiled after a long time. “You’re here for me, Keito?” His voice was hoarse, and it only came out as a whisper.
Without thinking, he reached out for his boyfriend.
Finally, he was out of this maze, back to the side of Keito.
