Trouble in Paradise (BrightWin Fanfic)

BRIGHT'S POV

It has been a day since I got back and I was trying to reach Win... I left dozens of messages reaching out to him then I decided to go and check his social medias as well but there were nothing. He hasn't been posting recently. I was getting worried but I noticed Chimon wasn't active as well, maybe they're dealing with some family stuff. 

I gathered everything I have for him and got busy with school as well. I made sure everything was ready for the weekend for the past two days I couldn't contact Win. I saw him view my messages so I immediately dialed on his name, he didn't picked up so I decided to head to the coffee shop he works at. 

I sat for hours at the coffee shop but he wasn't there and I don't even know if he's coming... It was past 6pm when I gathered all my stuff and decided it's time to leave when the staff already changed and I saw Win walking out from the staff room. 

"Win!" I said upon seeing him. He looks so tired already. 

"Bright?" He confusedly said. 

"Where have you been? You're not answering my messages and calls, are you okay?" I asked when I got closer to him. 

"I-I got busy sorry... I need to go work now..." He said obviously being distant again. 

"I'll wait until your shift is over, then let's talk." I told him. He was about to protest but he was called for his shift.

I walked to a table in a corner and placed another order of coffee and some snacks I can munch on while Win is working. At first I was watching him and adored how he's so good at a lot of things. I started working on some plates and small drawings as well until I pulled out my sketchpad and colored pencils. 

"My shift is over, can we not stay here?" Win approached me after hours of him working. 

"Yeah, we could have dinner at my house... If you like?" I asked him. 

"Okay." He said. 

It was a quiet trip home. Win fell asleep after 5 minutes of driving, he's really tired... I wanted to ask him but I'll put it aside until after dinner, he looks really tired... 

"Win... we're here..." I tried waking him up when we arrived but he was sleeping so soundly.

I let him sleep for a few more minutes, I just stared at him most of the time. My emotions started coming out... that time he found me, that was the end of the line, I was ready to finish it all... I was ready to leave and give up on everything. I don't know what good was left in me or what I did for someone up there to send someone like Win... 

He saved me. I rarely believe in magic and fairytales, but he indeed is a sunshine throughout the series of all the very heavy storms that never leaves me. He is everything I could ever ask for and I know I lack a lot... I need to be better for him, I'd give him the world...

"Win, hey... you have to wake up now." I said shaking him a little harder. 

"Oh... hey, we here?" He asked and looked around. 

"Yep... we can eat and nap after if you want..." I told him. 

"We need to talk, we have a lot to talk about." He smiled and fixed himself before we got out. 

We walked in and it was quiet except for our helper who welcomed us with her very warm smile. 

"There you both are, I prepared dinner, go eat as much as you can, I'll go leave you two alone, we'll come back to get the dishes later." Our helper said.
