	The Tape Recorder

_Hello, my lovely readers!_

_If you have chosen to take a look at this story there are some things you should probably know._

_This story starts 4 days after chapter 146 (I guess 147 now), when all the drama with the Trump has ended. _

_I want to remind you all that this story is the child of my imagination and so the characters behavior and events don´t have to be too realistic. Although, I am doing my best to keep it as close as possible to the UDDUP mood. _

_This is my first fanfiction ever, so don´t throw rotten tomato's at me if I´m too terrible. Of c__ourse criticism is fully welcomed!_

_The rating, as you have probably noticed, is M. Well, the manga does have the mature rating, so no surprise there. I don´t want to reveal all the secrets, but just is case I will say this, there will be torture, sexual situations, coarse language and all those kind of things.__ Nothing too unrealistic..._

_Now then, this chapter is basically a teaser. But don´t get downhearted yet. I´m going to publish the next one as soon as I get at least 3 reviews._

_Thanks __to my Beta Hrover, you showed me the path._

_The first brackets are the name of the chapter, the second are the name of the song which inspired me._

_Read, Rate, Review and I hope you will enjoy my story..._

_Until Death Do Us Part and all its characters, including the totally hot blind swordsman, belong to Takashige Hiroshi and DOUBLE-S. _

Haruka POV

Four days ago, when I was held hostage by the Trump, hanging there, ten meters off the ground with a bomb attached to my handcuffs, I gave up on life. I said the most terrible things to the person who had protected me all this time and would continue to protect me until his last breath.

"_I understood! So just give up then! Maybe you should just give up into despair and die."_The words echoed in my head as I relived the moment for the thousandth time.

_Something inside me broke at that moment. It was a dark and deep void, which I could only call abandon._

"_But I´m going to keep living though...Because there are still limits I haven´t passed yet."_

And I wished I could live as well, but I knew that was the end for me. I couldn't see my future simply because I no longer had one.

"_If someone plans on being the "wife" of a man like me... then they shouldn't fall into despair over just this."_

_And with these words hope was rebuilt in me._

I wish I knew it beforehand. I wish I had never given up. Yet again he changed the future, so I could see again. Now I´m ashamed of myself,regretting every word I said. I couldn´t even look at him after Tate-san got me down. We didn´t even talk.

Even though I gave up he didn't. Somewhere deep inside I knew he wouldn't. And those words... Thinking about them still makes me blush and smile. And when he started to execute his plan, Anna-san was so brave, jumping like that from the platform without hesitation and then being so composed, giving out orders to those three cold-hearted men. It made me realize something. I was not worthy of being by his side. I was a liability. I wanted to protect him, even though it was me who ran to him for protection in the first place.

So now I stand in the darkness of his room, saying my goodbyes. I glance at his pillow for the last time, a deep breath filling my lungs once more with his familiar scent. I have to leave now, while I still have the strength to do so. A long journey was ahead of me. I resolve to return, someday, when I'm stronger than I am now. And I can only pray that he'll forgive me then.
