【Kenny Ending】Soulmates

A/N; the song is looped, so you can listen through the whole chapter!

〖Your P.o.v〗

The other day I was hanging out with Wendy and talking to her about different things. Talking about spiritual things like the concepts of soulmates and the compatibilities of two people. I never really delved deep into the concepts of soulmates and stuff, because I always liked to believe that I could be in control of my own fate. But something she told me about soulmates stuck out to me. According to her, everyone in the world has a soulmate, some can have more than one, but everyone at least has one. Not everyone can find their soulmate, the chances of finding yours are rare.

She went on about how different cultures believed in soulmates, but had their own mythologies behind it. In Japan, the concept of soulmates was explained through the red string of fate. No matter where you are, whether the time or place, that string will always connect you. No matter how tangled, or pulled the string becomes, it will always be there, connecting the two souls.

When she told me all this. All I could think about was you, Kenny.

I took his hand and dragged him further down into the forest near the water. My hands were cold, because I was nervous, but his were warm, just as they always were. I don't know why I'm getting shy. I've told him I love you before. But it just feels different this time.

It feels like the start of a new beginning.

I shouldn't be getting nervous. But I am, and it won't stop.

I let go of Kenny's hand and faced him.

He looked at me expectantly, curious as to what I was going to say.

His icy blue eyes stared into mine, and I could feel my cheeks grow warm. Despite us always being so close, he still found a way to make my heart race. This isn't new, I just need to say it.

"What is it (Y/n)?" He asked, using my name,

I frowned slightly. It's okay. I've got this.

I looked off to the side and started, "Kenny I...— You and I have been through a lot t-together haven't we? I... I j-just—"

"What's wrong (Y/n)? You seem nervous. You're not normally like this," He neared me, placing his hand on my cheek to make me stare directly at him.

My expression became embarrassed from his bold actions, and I could see him smirk.

"You jerk! I wasn't finished!" I broke free from his hand to look away, but he quickly grabbed my face to force me to stare up at him.

Oh god, oh god, that was really hot. He's really hot, and he's staring right into me—

"Finish what you were saying Princess," He emphasized my nickname.

I smiled. Hearing you say that, I can't help but smile. I've got this. I have to tell you how I feel.

"I... Kenny, no matter what I could do, no matter what I did, I could never get my mind off of you. When you disappeared, all I could do was miss you, and wonder where I went wrong. In every person I tried finding comfort in, I was always searching for you. Yet, no one could ever come close to you. You're one of a kind, like no other person I've ever met before. Every moment where you left me, I was lost. With you gone, all I could feel was your absence. Constantly, every day, I was left thinking about you, yearning for you, hoping for you to come back. And in the end, I thought I really lost you, that you had truly left me. I thought I lost all chances of having a future with you. You were dead for the longest time, and yet, somehow you've found your way back to me. Kenny... I know these last few weeks have been hard on us both. I've been pushing you away since you came back, but it was because I was upset, you know that. Despite that, even when I was apart from you, all I could think about was you... No matter how hard I try, I can't stay away from you Kenny. I..."

He looked down at me in complete awe, seeming at a loss for words.

"I love you, Kenny," I finished.

"(Y/n)... I love you too," Tears fell from his eyes, as he pulled me into an embrace. He cried softly into my shoulder, and I held him close to me.

Suddenly a loud boom was heard, and we both pulled away slightly to look at the sound. In the dark night sky were fireworks. Orange, yellow, and white. They went off loudly, and beautifully.

Kenny placed his hand on my cheek to make me face him.

Before I knew it, his lips were placed on mine. I returned the kiss, moving my lips against his gently. We've kissed so many times before, yet this one feels more loving than any other kiss I've felt before. His tears fell onto my face as we kissed. I moved my hands around his neck to pull him in deeper. He snaked his arms around my waist.

Being this close to him, I felt so comforted, so loved. This is where I belong.

Something in me just tells me that you're my soulmate, Kenny. I wonder if you feel the same way.

He pulled away from the kiss and stared down at me lovingly. I smiled at his expression and wiped away the tears that were spilling from his eyes. He tried blinking them away, but they wouldn't cease.

"(Y/n), I love you, I... I love you so much!" He declared.

"I love you too Kenny,"

"When I left you, it was hell, I-I literally went to hell! But when I was there, all I could think about was you. You're my soulmate (Y/n). I've known that for the longest time. The moment that I realized you were the only one who could remember my deaths, I knew you were different. You stand out from everyone! So when we got stuck in the Cthulu dimension, all I wanted to do was protect you. All I ever wanted to do was protect you, and love you, and yet, I know I've caused you a lot of pain in the past. Even though I messed up countless times, you're still always there, waiting for me. Princess I— I need you in my life, you've changed me more than anyone ever has,"

I smiled up at him, as he told me this,

"I love you (Y/n), more than anything, more than anyone. It's you, you're my soulmate—"

Kenny pulled away from me and got down on one knee.

My eyes widened in surprise as he did this,

"I know we're young, and I know I can be an idiot. But this, what we have here, is real, you see that, and I see that," He held my hands in his, as he looked up at me.

"I promise you (Y/n), I will work hard to change and work toward a better future for us! I'll take care of you, love you, and listen to you! Fuck, we both know I need to work on that!" He stated.

I giggled at his words, and he continued,

"And like I said, I know we're young, and this may seem impulsive, but will you promise to stay with me until the end?" He asked, staring up at me with his icy blue eyes.

"I promise,"
