Love Of My Life

Chapter 23

The next morning, Moon found herself finishing her cleaning duties even before her shift officially began. Her first task? Wake up Mr. Fransisco. As she gently roused him from his slumber, he immediately reached out and pulled her into a warm embrace, his affectionate gesture catching her off guard.

However, their intimate moment was abruptly interrupted when Donna, the unexpected houseguest, stumbled upon them in the midst of their embrace. With a mischievous glint in her eye, Donna couldn't resist teasing Francisco about his childhood mishaps, including the embarrassing revelation of his bedwetting episodes.

Later that day, Fransisco gathered the rest of F4 to share some news: he had decided to apply for graduate school, a decision motivated by his desire to remain close to Moon. His announcement was met with a mixture of surprise and support from his friends, who were eager to see him pursue his dreams while also supporting his blossoming relationship with Moon.

Meanwhile, as Moon continued her duties at Fransisco's house, he surprised her by insisting that she join him for a meal. Although touched by his gesture, Moon couldn't shake the feeling of unease that lingered in the back of her mind, her thoughts consumed by worry over Fransisco's late-night invitation.

However, any lingering doubts were momentarily forgotten as Fransisco unveiled a telescope he had set up for her, allowing her to gaze up at the night sky and marvel at the beauty of the stars. Overwhelmed by the romantic gesture, Moon found herself lost in the moment, until Fransisco's heartfelt declaration snapped her back to reality.

"Because you're the only one I'm willing to trade all the meteors in the sky for," Fransisco confessed, his words filled with sincerity and love. Moved by his sentiment, Moon couldn't help but be swept up in the moment, and as their lips met in a tender kiss, she knew that her worries had faded away.

The next morning dawned with a sense of anticipation as Fransisco seized the perfect opportunity to officially ask Moon to be his girlfriend. It was a simple yet heartfelt gesture that filled her with joy and excitement, knowing that their journey together was only just beginning. Without hesitation, Moon eagerly accepted, feeling a rush of emotions as she embraced this new chapter in their relationship.

As they navigated the hallways of their school later that day, Moon found herself increasingly uncomfortable with the attention they attracted while sitting together at lunch. Despite Fransisco's reassuring words, explaining that it was natural for all eyes to be on them and encouraging her to grow accustomed to it, Moon couldn't shake off the feeling of unease. Francisco gently reminded her that she couldn't let the attention become a reason to push him away, reaffirming his commitment to their relationship.

Determined to carve out some quality time together away from the prying eyes of their classmates, Moon mustered up the courage to plan a private date with Fransisco. She envisioned moments of intimacy and connection, free from the distractions of their everyday surroundings. However, her plans were abruptly thwarted when Fransisco revealed that he was busy helping F4 with their thesis.

Moon's disappointment was palpable, and everyone around them couldn't help but notice her frustration.
