I'll Always Support You

Chapter 5 (Final)

A few weeks later,after Oliver came back from hospital he had alot of press conferences about his condition. I dressed up for the masquerade ball and headed to the ball room. There were relatives of Oliver and other nobles.
Amane:Jeez! How many people are there?
Hayden: Quite alot I say.
I looked beside me and Hayden smiled warmly at me.
Amane: Oh good you're finally here.
Hayden: Of course I won't leave you . I am really happy that you were able to persuade Oliver to take the surgery.
Amane: I'm happy as well.

I embraced him and he embraces back. My heart felt at ease that everything went well. Hayden let go and smiled warmly.

Hayden: I guess you didn't know.
Amane: Know what?
Hayden: That the wedding is next week.
Amane: NEXT WEEK?!?!
I slowly drop myself to the ground. But luckily Hayden caught me.
Hayden: Don't collapse like last time.
Amane: I can't believe it's next week. I've ben helping so much that I even forgot that the days were going by so quick.

A few hours later, I changed back to my normal clothes and headed towards the balcony.
The wind ran through my dark brown hair.
Amane: Such nice breeze...

I then heard Oliver's voice behind me.
Oliver: Hey Amane.
I look at Oliver and he also changed as well.
Amane: Oliver, why aren't you wearing your uniform?
Oliver: Its so heavy...i cant handle it.
Amane: I guess I'll accept that.
Oliver: There is something I want you to do together with me, wait here.
Oliver went inside the room amd came back with a box full of paper. It was his testament, now all shredded to pieces.
Amane: You wrote that much in your will?
Oliver: At that time, I had already given up, but not anymore. Now I want to live happily and with you still supporting me.

We grabbed a bunch of shredded paper.
Oliver: Here we go. One...Two...Three!
After his count, we thrown the paper in the air.
Oliver: Looks like confetti.
Amane: It does.
Oliver: The weak me is gone. I've crumpled it up, torn it and cast it in the air.
He looked up at the sky.

Oliver: If you hadn't taken care of me. I would probably not be here right now. Because of you, I was able to understand the meaning to live.

Hayden: Then we're glad for you Oliver.
We looked behind us, Hayden, Sieg, Kuon, Max and Kevin came towards us.
Max: You're really brave Oliver.
Kuon: I knew you would come back in one piece.

Oliver: It's because of Amane.
Amane: It's not mostly me, it was everyone who motivated you.
Oliver: You're right.

Hayden rested his hands on my shoulders.
Hayden: Now that the testament is gone. You can live how you want.
Oliver: Yeah I'm free.

Kuon: Hey Hayden.
Hayden: Yes?
Kuon: I heard that you are about to change the date of yours and Amane's wedding.
Sieg: I guess Hayden's too impatient.
Hayden: It's not a problem. Is it?

Amane: Kuon it seems like you know everything about every event.

Kuon: Are you jealous about that?

Amane: Why would I? And that sounds very stalkerish.

Kuon: I am not stalkerish!
Amane: Yeah you are!
Kuon: No I'm not!

Me and Kuon kept arguing back and forth and Prince Hayden chuckled.

Hayden: Sometimes I even forget that they are adults.

Oliver, Sieg, Max and Kevin laughed at Hayden's response.

Sieg: Amane and Kuon fighting as always.
Oliver: Even though they're the closest. Out of all of us.

Amane: THAT'S NOT TRUE SIEG!
Kuon: Amane always starts it!
Amane: Why blame everything on me?!

I crossed my arms and turned my back at Kuon as he did the same.

Kuon: Jeez! When will you ever grow up.
Amane: I think you're saying that to yourself.

Oliver comes up and rests a hand on mine and Kuon's shoulder.
Oliver: Come on. You two had alot of nice memories together. Why don't you say something nice to each other?

Amane: I remember when we were little there was a stupid prince. Who had to be taken to the hospital because he eaten to much cheese.

Kuon: Well, I remember an idiot princess who secretly ate all our cakes and ruined my bed sheets.

Amane: Hey! Its not fair to bring up things from the past.

Kuon: That's my line!

Sieg: Although it was pretty weird that you didn't gain any weight from eating all the cakes.

Amane : Its because I exercised for 3 hours.

Oliver: Aw come on not like that. Why don't you shake each others hands as apologies.

Amane: Hmph!

After a long moment, Kuon reaches his hand out to me. I thought for a while and shook his hand with mine.

Oliver: There we go!

I glanced at Kuon and smiled sweetly at him. A tint of red smeared across his cheeks.

Oliver: Hey Kuon. Why are you blushing?

Kuon: I-I wasn't blushing!

Oliver: Of course you were. But I still don't get why you be so mean to girls you like.

Kuon: What are you talking about?

Sieg: So you're trying to say that Kuon likes Amane?

Kuon and Amane: As if!

Kuon looked away from Amane. Even though outside he's always teasing or making fun of her, inside his heart acts more differently.
