A young woman sat on a bench with a book on her lap as a flock of birds flew towards the horizon. Under the sun, her E/C eyes glistened. She is perplexed as to why she has yet to form a bond with her partner. She's been looking for a long time, but fate hasn't shown up.

Oh, how she wishes she could track them down sooner rather than later. Despite the fact that she is alone, she keeps herself occupied by reading books. Her hair was flowing with the wind, making her look more angelic, as she read a good number of pages before closing the book.

She wanders off to her fantasies as she watches the children play in the park. Having a child to care for is one of the things she has wished for. After a few moments, she sighed and looked up at the sky, knowing it was time for her to return home and rest. She hasn't been getting enough sleep lately due to nightmares.

That burnt-looking bacon man, dressed in a striped sweater, brown pants, and a fedora atop his head, but the strangest part is that he has a strange glove on his right hand and has been bothering her recently, and she can't keep up!

Oh, how she wishes she could punch him in the jaw. Unfortunately for her, the only option she has right now is to outrun him or stay up all night! She did, however, purchase hypnocil pills a few days ago in the hopes of preventing him from entering her dream.

So she rushed home and took the pills without hesitation before drifting off to sleep with no interruptions, nightmares, or anything else. She blinks repeatedly before closing her eyes.

"One year?" She said looking over at him and smiling.

"One year." He replied back, "one whole year of us being best friends, lovers, and even enemies; but in the end it was all worth it."

"It's quite confusing actually." She rolled over onto her stomach, freeing herself of his hold.

"Confusing?" He furrowed his eyebrows at her.

"Yes, exactly. How could anyone want to be with me for a year? A whole 365 days with me. How doesn't it seem like a bunch of nonsense, like one big lie? Why would you want to be with me for a year?" She wondered curiously, giving her partner a suspicious glance.

"You're right. I don't want to be with you for a year." He said, sitting up and looking at her seriously. "I want to be with you forever."

She tried her best not to laugh, but her face still ended up in something of a smirk. "I hate you." She laughed, throwing him back down. "I'm supposed to be upset, or even angry, yet you still make me smile."

"I love you too." He mumbled to her as he pulled her down with him. "I like you better when you smile, with the sunshine pouring out of your face. Save the crying for the clouds."

"Oh shush, you're so silly."

"Never. Now be quiet and lay down and spend your time forever with me." He mumbled to her ear as she giggled under her breath and guess what, she did...
