Key to my Happiness (Damien Haas Fan Fiction)

Chapter 13

Caroline's POV

I ran out of the room and took the stairs to the rooftop. Noone would see me here. Being the drunk that I am, good thing I still managed to use the stairs. I'm at peace when I'm up here. It gives me time and space to think about everything, the only problem is... my head is pounding. I sat down on the side and closed my eyes. Gosh darn it. What the hell is happening? I don't even know which is which anymore. I cried because of all the shitness that's been happening this week... THIS WEEK. Everything seems to be in fast motion what is even happening anymore? "Fuck" I muttered.

The pounding on my head is still engraved on my skull. I hugged my knees and stayed on that position for a while. You need to breathe, Lin. Just breathe.

Damien's POV

After seconds of drifting into space I then realized that Lin ran out. Oh no! Where could she be? I checked each room of their apartment, I asked the doorman if she saw someone going down the lobby that ran out, he shook his head no. Where could she be? Think of a plan Damien. Should I call one of the guys? No. Yes. No. Yes. Fuck. This is a huge problem and it's already 12:30 midnight. Darn it. I need to call someone but who? I can't call Keith he's gonna beat the shit out of me. Same goes to Boze. I can't call Shayne, after what just happened today, maybe that's enough of him for today. Everyone is just so freakin busy today.

I went back to their apartment and stayed there for a while. I concluded that I should call Flitz and Sohinki. They swing in to the apartment in 15 minutes and asked me everything that happened. I explained the whole thing fully detailed. "Damien! This is bonkers we need to find her." Flitz said to me, standing up as Sohinki and I also stood up. We were about to go out the door when a petite figure was by the door. It was Lin. "I'm sorry" she broke down. "Lin" we all said in sync as we rushed towards her. Flitz helped her up and directed her towards the couch while Sohinki made some drinks. I was in front of her just looking at her.

I sat beside her and just looked at her. She kept saying "I'm sorry" repeatedly. I feel bad for her, who knows what she has been through. I hugged her tightly as I felt hands hugged me back. I whispered "I'm sorry too" back. Sohinki came back with the hot chocolate. I released from the hug but she stayed on me. I let her do her thing for a while. Flitz held her by the shoulder and motioned Lin to drink some of the hot chocolate that Sohinki prepared. She blew the steam out and took a sip of her beverage. I looked at the guys and gave them a sympathetic smile. "Thank you for tonight guys." I said. "No problem, dude." Sohinki said.

Lin placed her cup on the table and sat up. She looked at me and was about to break down when Flitz asked her "what is really happening?" with a very concerned look. Lin looked at Flitz and sighed.

Caroline's POV

"I just got scared. Boze and I took a lot of drinks. Funnt thing here is that I don't really drink. Maybe we got caught up in the moment. And I saw Damien walked towards us and asked a series of questions." I looked at him and gave him a smile, "then everything else was blurry. I remember waking up in my apartment, sprinting to the toilet and throwing up. I figured Damien was there the whole time. I'm sorry if you have to see that." I blushed of embarassment. "It's all okay, Lin." He smiled. "Then I changed my clothes. I thought by now Damien had left for me to rest and that I was with Boze the whole time. But it was all Damien. So we chatted for a while until I admitted that I am starting to fall for him, not knowing that Damien is the one I'm really talking to, I really thought I was talking to Boze." I said, probably blushing. I looked at Flitz and Sohinki and they were smiling like hell.

"I just realized it was Damien I was talking to when he tilted my face to face his. That's when I panicked. I didn't know what to do. Everything was weird for a while and I felt like breaking so I ran. I ran upstairs to the roof to contemplate about my decisions but I was really tipsy. So that didn't helped. It just gave me more headaches. So I sat there for a while until I've decided to go down here to see the three of you." I said.

"I don't understand. Why did you freaked out when you saw Damien?" Flitz asked. "Maybe because it only has been a week and I'm afraid I'm starting to fall for him. I mean it's not bad to fall for him but I think it's too soon. Everything is in a rush. I need to slow down even for a bit. I've only been here for a week and everything is just smoothly living. What if everything fell apart in the end? I don't know. I tend to overthink a lot of things which in result makes me feel more troubled than I was before." I answered. "But do you really feel what you really said towards Damien?" Sohinki asked. I nodded. Damien held my hands and looked at me.

"Caroline Salvador. I don't know how to start this, because I'm afraid it might be the end of our good acquaintance, or if I'm lucky, the realization of my dreams, which is for you to love me as I love you. I told myself I might as well take the risks because it's the only remedy I know that could unburden this feeling I've been keeping ever since. Lin, I love you. I know you'll find it hard to believe me if I tell you now how much you mean to me. I could hardly understand what I feel for you, knowing how to endure those long sleepless nights just thinking only of you. I've never been like this before.

I just don't know how to pour out my feelings for you. I wanted to find the perfect words to make you realize how much I need you and love you, but words continue to elude me, what would they be? Something poetic? I'm sure it should be heartfelt and out of the ordinary. I'm afraid it's no use; every time I look at you, the words came out the same... I love you! And yes! I know truly that this is love. I feel like I can tell you anything. I may not always want to, but you know things about me that even my best friend doesn't know. You're always there to pick me up when I fall, and to dry my tears. Thank you, Lin. I know you are not ready but I can give you all the time you need. I'm just hoping that what your feeling towards me is the same as what I feel towards you." He said to me.

I surprised him with my lips on his lips. He was shocked for a moment but then wen with the flow. Knowing that Sohinki and Flitz are still here, I broke off from the kiss and looked at him very funny. He laughed softly and blushed. Hot Lord. I love making him blush it's freaking cute. "I really love you, Lin" My eyes were even more watery than it was before. He said he loves me, so dearly. That makes me extremely happy. I also love him, very much it hurts. Should I just go for it or wait? I was raised to be very conservative and I've never even had a serious relationship. So it won't hurt to try right?

'I just want you to be happy.' The only wish my mom wants for me. But Damien is my source of happiness other than my mom and my friends. He brings out the best in me like no one else can do. I love him. I love him. Oh God. I love him so much. I smiled. I gave him a huge hug and whispered in his ear, "I love you too, Damien."

Damien's POV

We broke from the hug and I gave her a sweet peck on the lips. "Well, I love you more." I said winking, I love seeing her blush. It's so freaking cute. I looked at the guys and they were smiling at us. "Good job, man." Flitz said. "Thanks." I said. "Oh, so that's how you get a girl. Thanks Damien." Sohinki joked as we all laughed. "So you guys want to stay for the night, watch 'Borat' and eat some more junks?" Lin asked us. We all looked at each other; Me, Flitz and Sohinki and nodded. "SLUMBER PARTY" Flitz screamed. I looked at Lin and she was laughing. She really is freaking beautiful, inside and out. I'm so glad I got to call her mine. But technically we aren't official yet so what should I do to earn that 'yes' from her?
