Darkness Awaits~

Chapter 3

Lida and Nagai walked home, in three weeks Nagai would be getting married. and as Layla's closest friend Lida had already been made the maid of honor. Nagai smiled. the wedding was so close, there was nothing that could ruin his happiness now. they arrived at the castle and the twins separated to their rooms. Nagai changed out of his school uniform and into his normal outfit: a white T-shirt, jeans, and a black hoodie with the sleeves rolled up over his elbows. He sighed and walked out, trying to fix his hair. he had plans with Layla tonight to go walking across the beach. something they enjoyed since they could just talk without being surrounded by the press and paparazzi. he walked out to the beach and waited for Layla. She walked to Nagai wearing a blue sun dress and an over-sized purple hoodie that slipped off her shoulders. "hey babe!" she said as she hugged him. "hey Mrs. Ayuri!" he picked her up and spun her around, both laughing. they fell down on the sand together, laughing. Layla hoisted herself up and kissed Nagai passionately. 'God i love this woman!' he thought as he closed his eyes. they separated and both smiled. they got up and Layla held a hand up to her head. "Hon, you alright?" Nagai looked at her worried. she nodded. "I'm fine hone, I promise." she smiled at him and they walked across the shoreline. They walked while chatting for a couple of hours. neither knowing what was happening to Layla. she kept having random headache that would pass after a few minutes but she assured Nagai that she was fine. after a few more minutes Layla collapsed. Nagai tried to help her up but her body wouldn't move. her muscles had given out on her. Nagai picked her up and carried her back to the castle, running as fast as he could without dropping her. he ordered a doctor immediately to his room. he carried her to his room and laid her on the bed. praying it wasn't anything serious that would make them have to reschedule the wedding... or cancel it. he held onto her hand tightly. "you can't leave me Layla...not like this.... not this close to our wedding!" he cried and sat with his arms on the bed, laying his head on the bed as he cried himself to sleep.
