(Y/N) p.o.v
"You really outdid yourself this time, Charles!" My lips turn into a smirk. "I mean for sick person!" "Hey!" He sounded annoyed,"I'm trying to be romantic here!! You unappreciative brat!" He scolded. "Hai2x. But you really should not do this Charles, I mean, not to be pitiful, but I'm worried about you. Please Don't blame!" I bowed my head to look apologetic. " But in anyways Charles, I'm happy! Happy that we could be together. In a date. I'm so happy!!" Charles seemed to approach my face with his hands and wiped off the tears that was trying to escape my eyes. "All for you (Y/N)! I would do anything. Because I love you!!" "I love you too!!"
Then the cafeteria Chef and the staff, which we had gotten close since the past year, started to form a horizontal line. Each of them brought a different course. "And for the main course, we have chicken Ala king, spiced according to your preferences." The chef kissed his hands, making it more a five-star cuisine. "Arigatou! Anything for the love birds!" I was about to grab the spoon to try the different food layed out on the table when a spoon hovered in my face. "May I?" "Hmm!" I nodded and opened my mouth. Charles carefully fed me, which made me smile and in return, I did the same. "I wish I could feed you everyday!" Charles sounded frustrated. I know the hospital has been doing things for him even when he didn't wanted to be useless. He wasn't and isn't useless. Cancer just got in the way. I grab Charles arm and put it in my cheeks. "Your hands are pale but never useless. The warmth coming from here makes me so happy, makes me feel so safe. And if you ever think you're useless Charles, don't. I'll let you feed me everyday. Not because I pitying you. But because I loved too. Me being fed by my one true love, I couldn't ask for more." He smiled while a single tear dropped. "So Please take care of me!"
He stood up and raised his fingers, almost magically. The lights. The music. All of them came to life. My eyes widened. There were humangous mushrooms, flowers, grasses. It really looks like we're in wonderland. I can't believe Charles came up with this. "I've read up about this and guessed you'd like this!" He smirked. The song of Ed Sheeran All of the Stars (Do not own anything) made its way to our ears. It's just like everything I ever dreamed of. I've even written something like on my journey book. Then it clicked. "Wait, where did you read up about this?!" My hands was on my waist. "Um. ano. Does it even matter?" "It does to me!" He then grabbed me and whispered something in my ear. "You don't have to know. What matters is what we have right now? So . . ." His knees touched the ground and knelt. He extended his arms. "Would you like to dance, my queen?" I sighed and gave in. My hands reached for his, allowing him to lead me on. I put my right hand on to his shoulders while his made its way to my waist. I tightened up. "Relax Van. I will guide you all through out." I nodded and started to waltz. We followed the rhythm of the song, letting ourselves indulge on this moment. I wish this would never end. I don't care a damn about how tiring it would be to dance if it means I could get to spend an infinity with him. Forever doesn't exists in many ways. But, it could exist in little moments, in little times like this. "I love you Charles." He smiled while I hugged him, placing my head on to his chest. We stopped dancing and just let ourselves feel the warmth radiating from each other. "These feelings will always be here for you (Y/N). Nothing and no one is going to change that." A box emerged from his tux pocket, revealing a gift. "What's this?" "A gift. No, a token. If I'm not here, if I'm far far away, if I'm gone, hold this necklace. I will always be here for you Van! I love you!" "Don't say things like you're saying goodbye!" "This is never goodbye. It never has been." I pulled my hair away from my neck, allowing him to tie the necklace. It was circle. " Why a circle?" "Because a cirlce has no ends. Even there is in this world, the little infinity we shared is boundless. Thank you for giving me that."
>Flashback ends<
"So that's it. I've said it." I'm crying again. It's like it's happening all over again. My hands grip at the necklace. Stop crying Van!
"I'm sorry (Y/N)! I'm so sorry!" He hugs me while I cry. "I'm so sorry."
"Don't be."
"Couz??" Meg said. "Van?"
I immediately pushed Yuma, breaking the hug. My face is nothing but a mess but it does not compare to the realization that I was hugging someone elses boyfriend. No, I was hugging my cousin's boyfriend. Oh no! This is wrong. What we were doing is wrong in many ways.
"I can explain!" I tried to assure her.
"No need!" Then Karma bursted from behind her.
"Are you okay Van?" He shouted concernly. I nod wearily. "Stay there, help is here!!!"
Just then, men in yellow suits and hard hats emerged and carried a ladder. One of them crossed, tying a rope for us to balance on. Then they guided us towards the other end. I'm trembling. "It's okay miss." It's not that what I'm worried about. I see Meg staring. No, she's glaring at me. I'm afraid I've done something terribly wrong. When we arrive, Karma hugged me. "I'm okay Karma. I'm okay." Yuma went directly to Meg and tried to hug her but then, "We should get out of here!" She turned her back on Yuma and walked ahead. The Ikemen just sighed and followed her. I'm sorry.
