genre: romance (it's been awhile since I've written this without angst!)
summary: Throughout the Scarlet Night and Mourning Song series, bits and pieces of their past have been revealed. Often, their love story has played back-seat to the main plot and main ships of these series. Finally, condensed into a one-shot, their story, the accumulation of their time together prior to arriving at SJA, is told.
She is the Abandoned, left to fend for herself in a foreign country, having been sent back after trying to seek refuge with the ones who were supposed to be her family. By chance, she meets the Lonely, the lone survivor of a plane crash, and the one person who seems to understand her pain. Reluctantly, they meet more and more, never realizing they could be each other's salvation.

That should have been the last of the responsibility he felt towards her. And, yet, he saw her every day for the past year and a half. Indeed, not a day went by when they didn’t speak at least once to one another. And, even though he would never admit it out loud, whenever he entered a room with others about, he instinctively sought her out, just needing the sight of her to ease his discomfort around other people. It was annoying having to rely on someone. It was even more annoying having to feel like he had to watch out for her. (
