(3/8/20XX) - Evening

After hearing everything Monika had to say, she took a deep breath and sighed. "So, Yuki, now we can bask in our happy ending and just sit here until the end of time itself. Or, who knows, maybe time will never end..." Her lips tugged up a little higher. "I think i'd like that."

I sat back in my chair and thought about the magnitude of the situation. Yes, she had "deleted" everything in my life in a very horrific fashion, but... if all of those experiences were fake and we really were the only two sentient beings in this simulated world, it's hard not to understand what she's saying. Hell, if I were in her situation it's not like I would've done anything too differently (well, maybe minus all of the death and whatnot but that's besides the point).

Now that I think about it, my past is probably the haziest part of my life. I don't even remember my parents names, where I grew up, where I went to elementary school, and all the other experiences you could never forget growing up. All I clearly remember is that me and Sayori were childhood friends and everything in relation to the literature club... Oh, and that i've always had a crush on Monika. Even that is hazy however, as, if this really is all just a simulation with a script that we were forced to follow (until Monika changed fate, of course), then it's not surprising that part of me was muffled. I wasn't allowed to break character, after all.

... Oh, shit. I guess I do have a crush on her. Maybe now that I am fully in control of myself for once I can freely think about this sort of thing? So many questions yet so few answers... Then again, if I really am stuck with Monika for god knows how long, I have plenty of time to come up with some conclusion to these theories. But, yeah, I like Monika. She just always had... something about her that everyone else in my life was missing. Not only is she just straight up beautiful, but her personality is so lovable. I hazily remember admiring her back in the day for how intelligent, kind, and well spoken she was. Truly one of a kind. Therefore, this outcome of events isn't... the worst. But that still doesn't make me want to give in that easily. I still have much I want to discuss with her.

I took a deep breath and ruffled my short, brown hair. "So, we're in a simulated reality and everyone around us were AI that just followed a set script? AKA, none of our lives were real?"

"I wouldn't say they weren't real as they still happened, however... it's like a play of sorts, where the script dictates everything that happens... Though, there weren't any actors or actresses in this play. Just lines of code with no emotions."

"So, Sayori and everyone really were just... that? Just lines of code?"

She averted her gaze. "To be truthful, since we're both in this simulated reality, we're all made of code. However, we're the only ones that can truly feel and think for ourselves. We're the only ones that don't follow the script and can deviate from it. We're real."

"And why is that...?"

She gave a light chuckle. "I don't know every answer! Though, maybe it has something to do with the roles we were given." She stood up and walked to the window that overlooked an endless sea of stars. "I was given the role of the literature club president, therefore I was an important figure in this reality."

"But that doesn't-"

"As I said, I don't know everything." She cut me off before I could even begin (politely, of course). "However, ever since I became the president of the literature club I had this... epiphany."

"An epiphany..." The hole in the wall... 

"Mhm... I was just in the middle of practicing piano when something hit me. That's when I truly opened my eyes for the first time. And so, with that knowledge, I had to do something. I couldn't just sit back and let a simulation take you away." 

"... But why?" She turned and looked at me with a questioning look in her eyes. "You could've just continued to live a lie and let the script play out without anything... violent."

She nervously chuckled at that. "I suppose I could've handled the deletions more tactfully, though what's done is done I suppose..." She turned back to the window and continued to gaze outside. "... You see, Yuki, in the back of my head I knew I liked you. But because the script forbid it, it was just a jumble of emotions that I couldn't understand. It was like a rubix cube that you just can't solve no matter how many times you try to. It was confusing... until the epiphany." She turned back to me with a light smile. "I knew that I had to save us once I learned the truth to everything. I knew that if I just lived with the truth and did nothing about it... I would regret it forever." She walked back to me and looked into my eyes with her emerald green beauties. "I knew that i'd rather spend eternity with someone who could have free will than live a lie." She walked closer and looked down at me. My heart began to thump in my chest a little. "Because a lifetime with you is better than a million lifetimes of that little stage play. But since we have the option to live for eternity together, there was never a competition to begin with."

...Okay, maybe I can give in that easily. 

I blushed as I looked up to her. "W-Well, I um... Heh... I have to agree, I guess..."

She gave an amused smile. "You seem nervous."

"Well, when you're j-just standing there I..." I clear my throat and try to regain my composure (which failed miserably). "I-I just... wish you hadn't taken the horrifying route w-when you decided to take action is all."

"Again, I could've done better in that regard. I tried to be lowkey about it, but it was a bit hard to when they just had their hands all over you..." She leaned down and got a bit closer to my red face. She began to whisper in an oddly erotic tone that made my heart leap out of my chest. "So, I sort of panicked and did things in the heat of the moment... Sorry if that changes anything."

"I-I already t-told you... I agree with what y-you said a-and I... um... u-understand. I m-mean, I like you t-too so if I were in your shoes-" I quickly shut myself up and panicked on the inside. "I-I MEAN- um..."

"... You really do?" I nodded once, trying not to die from a heat stroke. "Well, that's a relief." She grinned as she sat herself on my lap and leaned into my ear. "Because, like I said, we're going to be here forever. And, well..." She slowly bit down on my ear lobe as she breathed her warm breath on my neck. She retracted herself slowly and looked back into my eyes with a lustful gaze. "It would've been a shame if I wasn't able to do that."

Holy shit, i'd have to agree.

My brain felt empty in that moment. I felt all sorts of things and wanted to say so much, but my mouth could only ask one dumb thing...

"Th-this is a bit... fast, i-isn't it?"

"I just want to establish how I feel about you.~" She cooed. "We have all the time in the world to get to know each other and fully form our relationship, but..." She put her forehead on mine and lightly blushed. "I have so much pent up energy, Yuki. I've been anxiously waiting to get to this moment and, now that we're here, all I want to do is release it all. So, please..." She slowly got into a straddling position and giggled. "Help me, will you?"

Not only did my body feel like it was being roasted in a 10,000 degree oven, but my mind was completely fried at this point. So, I responded in the only way I knew how at that moment...

I placed my lips on hers and grabbed her waist, ready for the long night ahead of us.
