"Time is precious, most people don't realise this at first and hope it goes faster. But when things go wrong, we wish every second of each day that we could go back and restart."

WILBUR's POV:

Today is the day Manberg falls, I'm going to do it. Haha it's really happening isn't it? I run my right hand through my hair, gripping at the roots. My heart races even thinking about the TNT under L'manberg at this very moment. It's going to be brilliant, my unfinished symphony replaced with a new one. The explosions will be music to my ears.

I turn my head to the right and see Y/n sleeping next to me, oh how radiant she is. No matter how many times I look at her, I can't get enough, even if she's mad at me. Nothing can equate to the level of power she has over me, I am at her every beck and call in everything except L'manberg. L'manberg is my decision to make, I just need to convince her to stand with me on it.

As if she could feel me staring at her beauty, her eyes flutter open and we make eye contact.

"Were, were you watching me sleep?" Yawning as she spoke, she propped herself on her elbow to look down at me. A smile spreads on my lips as the corners curl upwards,

"You were too beautiful not to Darling." Even in the dark I could see the subtle blush arise on her cheeks, maybe she forgot about being mad at me already.

"What are you doing up so early Wil, it's like," she looks to the beside table and reads the time "4am." Her eyes sparkle in the shallow lighting making them even more enchanting to look into. I sit up and stretch my arms up into the air before bringing them down slowly to reply,

"Today's the day." A grin morphed onto my lips, one of excitement, it was going to be exhilarating. I Watch her face drop when I said that, she sure doesn't make this easy for me.

"Oh." Why couldn't she just see it how I do? Things would be so much easier if she did. Y/n rubs her eyes and sits up with me, staring at the dark space ahead of us with a troubled expression.

"Y/n, I know you don't like what's going to happen but can we not fight about it, I hate fighting with you." Fighting with Y/n was like insulting your Goddess, it brought nothing but hurt and despair to the instigator when seeing the disappointment in their deities eyes. She sighs into her hands and takes a deep breath,

"Wil, I don't like fighting with you either but what you want to do is devastating." Y/n's angelic voice was small and weak, she sounded frail. I reach out my hand towards Y/n's face and take it in my hand, placing my index finger under her chin to turn her head towards me. She looked defeated, like she had no other option but to follow my instructions, she looked like how she was with Dream. No, no no no I'm different from him, I am better with her. I truely love her, I worship her.

"Darling I know it's hard, I hate seeing you defeated like this." Maybe I could change the plan a bit, just a little. "But if it would hurt to much to see it, then you don't have to be there. I was going to take you with me to the control room but if you don't want to, then so be it." Y/n listened to my proposal, staring into my eyes with hers, my heart bouncing in my throat. "As long as your safe."

"What about Tubbo and Tommy? Or Niki?" Her voice broke with emotion at the names of our friends, she cared so much for them. Why did they have to get in the way? Why not divert all that care and affection to me? I'll be here always, she can care for me. She can love me.
