A/N: Imagine written for Logolepsy- who decided to torture me with a Buddy Holly imagine. I'm getting even ;)
I STRONGLY SUGGEST LISTENING TO HEARTBEAT WHILE READING THIS BECAUSE FEELS
You smile up at Buddy and clutch his arm, squeezing it with excitement, as you two board the plane. The two of you have been dating for several months and you were going with him on his tour and this was also your first time riding in an airplane. Needless to say, you're excited!
"Are you excited, Shelby?" Buddy asks, adjusting his glasses as he smiles down at you. The two of you were right behind Ritchie Valens, who was also boarding the plane.
"Oh yes," you grin, "I've never ridden in a plane before!"
"Trust me darlin'" Buddy adjusts his glasses before wrapping an arm around your shoulders, "you'll absolutely love it."
You can't help, but giggle as Ritchie finally boards the plane and you and Buddy get on. The plane was small so the two of you make sure to go to the very back in order to get as much privacy as possible.
Buddy kisses you lightly on the lips as the two of you sit down, Buddy taking the window seat. Though you were excited to ride a plane for the first time, you were also a bit scared. You were never really a big fan of heights.
The two of you watch as The Big Bopper also gets on the plane. As the pilot boards in the cockpit, you feel Buddy's hand on your cheek and turn to face him.
"Shelby, I want to ask you somethin'" Buddy says softly as he catches your attention.
"Yes?" You ask as your eyes meet his.
To your amazement, Buddy pulls out a rose and a small ring that he'd been hiding in his suit's jacket. You gasp.
"I love you darlin'" he says quietly, "will you marry me?"
Tears begin to fill your eyes as you eagerly nod and manage to whisper a small "yes." Buddy grins and slips the ring on your finger before handing you the rose.
"I love it so much Buddy, thank you," you say before hugging him and laying your head on his chest. You can hear his heart beating as he wraps his arms around you.

The next thing you know, you're waking up to somebody screaming. You gasp and jolt awake, only to scream out as you feel a sharp, burning pain in your left arm.
Your surroundings are absolute chaos, but somebody manages to notice that you've woken and runs over to you. "Stay still ma'am," he says, "there's been an accident!"
"Wh-Where's Buddy?" You ask frantically, searching the field for him. Finally, you notice him unconscious several feet away from you. Ignoring the stranger's warnings, you manage to get on your feet and limp over to your fiancé, ignoring the sheering pain shooting up your side.
"Buddy? What's happening? Buddy!" You shout in terror as you get close to him and finally collapse by his side.
"Buddy?" You call frantically again, "Buddy, please wake up!"
You feel the tears roll down your cheeks as you look down at Buddy, his glasses shattered by his side. Like before you fell asleep, you lay your head on his chest, expecting his arms to wrap around you.
His heartbeat...is still.
