A/n: This is a song chapter, so the song mentioned in the title and underneath the key will be what inspires THE WHOLE CHAPTER. With that said, I STRONGLY recommend you listen to the song above while reading, because, although the lyrics aren't physically in the story, this chapter still follows the exact same story. Also, this chapter has been planned out since I had written the fifth chapter, so I hope you enjoy! :)

Song: Imagination - Shawn Mendes (hE GiVeS mE LIfE)

Italics are thoughts...

Vylad's POV

I sigh, looking out the window of my newly furnished treehouse, and there she is, walking with Aphmau down on the beach. My imagination has been going wild lately, and now is no different.

Every day has been the same thing since she's moved here: she grabs Aphmau - or whoever she can find who had magicks - and then talks to them about her powers. They walk past my house every time, and I can't help but want to interrupt their conversation. I want to yell in her direction. I want to tell her how beautiful she is, and how much I want her to be mine, but I can't... I just can't.

Y/n will forever be beyond my reach.

I rest my head on my arm while looking out the lonely window in my treehouse, fantasizing. I desperately want her in my arms, telling me how much she loves me... maybe she does, but, although I love her back, I'll never admit it. Why?

... did you forget what I am?

That monster in my mind will always be there to torment me, and I don't want to drag Y/n into its rage. He warns me, saying that since I'm a Shadow Knight, I might hurt her... but, despite the warnings, I still think about what Y/n and I could be. I keep wanting her, but she'll never know it. I'm just doing what I can to protect her. That's all I ever want to do - protect her.

Always, she's in my dreams. We're together, and we're everything I want us to be. I would be a regular human, and we'd both be living in Phoenix Drop, without a care. I think about us kissing, just like when we were kids, and I'd be the happiest man in the world. Soon, I shake myself out of my own thoughts.

My happiness is just in my imagination.

I look out the window, to see Aphmau walking away alone. I look around, confused.

Where's Y/n?

Suddenly, her voice rings in my ears. "Knock, knock! Vylad?" I turn around to see her smiling at the entrance of the treehouse, knocking on the wood beside her. "Wanna head down to the beach?"

I smile back, fantasies clouding my mind.

"Of course."

We climb out of the treehouse, and we walk onto the beach. We start talking about... random things, really. We laugh, and we just spend our time walking by the ocean tide.

I bite my lip as I watch her giggle, facepalming a bit at a joke I had just made. It's time like these when I feel like I'm the luckiest guy in the world and my love for her increases. That's when I take a chance, and I slip my hand into hers. A warm feeling stirs in my stomach, and I smile.

Y/n doesn't seem to care, and we continue walking, hand-in-hand like a couple on a date. Meanwhile, I feel like I'm walking on the clouds, rather than on the beach... no matter what she says, she's an angel. I'd never think I would belong to something so beautiful.
