Author's POV.
An uncomfortable silence fell between the four. They all knew what was coming next. "So... I suppose you two should return home now." Ralsei said what they were all thinking. Kris's hand tightened around (Y/n)'s. He dreaded this moment. "Yeah, I... I guess that's right, huh...?" Susie replied, glancing at Kris from the corner of her eye, as if she could read his mind.
Reluctantly, Kris let go of the girl's hand, already missing it in his. Him and Susie took a few steps, as Kris shoved his hands on the pockets of his bodysuit. He suddenly felt something in it and pulled it out. It was the fingerless glove he had found earlier. He turned around to Ralsei and (Y/n), who spotted the glove in his hand. She looked down at her hand and noticed hers was gone. "I... uhm... totally forgot about this..." Kris mumbled, walking back over to (Y/n). "Me too... Didn't really realize it was gone up until now..." She admitted. Kris gently took her hand and slipped the glove back on. He tried to do it as slow as he could, wanting to drag this goodbye out as long as possible. To (Y/n), it felt weird having the glove back on her hand. Like it didn't belong to her at all.
Once the glove was back on, Kris held her hand a little longer, not wanting to let go. His soul ached. 'Ask her! Ask her you idiot! Don't lose her!' His inner voice screamed at him.
'Tell him! Don't let it end like this! This can't be the end of it!' (Y/n)'s inner self was yelling too.
The two didn't know what to do. FINALLY, Kris spoke up. "Doll...I...uh..." He started. (Y/n) looked up at him hopefully. "Yeah....?"
"I was wondering... If... If you..." Kris tried to get the right words out. Susie and Ralsei watched the two in anticipation. "If I...?" (Y/n) incouraged. "I-If... you..." Kris stuttered before sighing. "If that offer of cake still stands...." He couldn't do it. It hurts so much. 'What if she says no?... I couldn't cope with that...' He wanted to slap himself.
(Y/n) shoulders slummed as she looked at the ground in disappointment. "Oh... Of course... I... I'll make you as many as you want when you visit again..." She mumbled. "Great... I'll... See you around..." He mumbled back as he let go of her and walked passed Susie, who followed him confused. The two Lightners headed in the direction of fountain.
(Y/n) wanted to cry as she watched Kris walk away. Ralsei walked up to her, looking at her with concern. "(Y/n)...?" He asked quietly.
~with Kris and Susie~
The two walked silently along the path. Kris had a grim look on his face. He noticed Susie taking glances at him ever so often. "What?.." He asked. Susie faced forward again. "So that's it? You're just gonna leave?" She asked calmly, acting like she could care less. "What do you mean?" Kris replied. "I mean, you spent the entire way from Ralsei's Castle to here, flirting with her, making goo goo eyes, acting like a love sich Bastard the entire time... And now you just... leave?" She pointed out.
Kris slightly blushed in embarrassment at the way Susie read him so easily. "What does it matter to you...?" He asked bluntly. Susie sighed in annoyance. "Look, in the last couple of hours, I've seen you show more emotions than in all the damn years I've known your stupid ass COMBINED! And we both know she's the cause of it. But I guess, if you can just leave, I guess she's not important to you, after all.~" Susie explained.
Kris got pissed at the last part." Are you kidding me!? She means more to me than I ever thought was possible! Everytime she's around me I don't know if I want to scream or puke! I care about her so much, it HURTS! Just walking away from her, is like losing a part of me! I don't f*cking know what this feeling is!! It makes me think and do stupid crazy sh*t! Her mear presence is enough to drive me insane! And I don't know why! All I know is that I don't want to lose it! I don't want to lose her.... " He ranted. Susie smiled, seeing that it worked. "Then what are you waiting for, asshole?" Kris stopped in his tracks, staring straight ahead as seemingly nothing. Susie walked a bit ahead before turning to him casually. "So?... You gonna be a wimp or what?" She asked, grinning as she crossed her arms.
