I sit up and face him.

"Can I be honest?" He ask.

"Of course." I smile.

"I'm scared- it's really fucking scary but I tried pushing that thought out for so long that my brain doesn't register that but my heart does. I used to tell myself there's so point being scared and I guess it's still true but I think another reason why I didn't want chemo was that I was so fixed on not being scared about dying when I really was." He breathes out.

"I- I don't know what to say but I know I'm going to help you get through this just like you helped me." I say.

He smiles at me and grabs my hand.

"Madi Carson I used to think you were vanilla but oh how I was extremely wrong- you a such an extraordinary favour, one where I just want it to myself." He kisses my hand.

"It's all yours." I blush.

We stayed in the boat until dark. We rowed back and he walked me back to my house.

"Thankyou for tonight Ruel." I hug him.

"No Thankyou for making it so enjoyable." He smiles.

I smile against his chest and pull away.

"I'll see you tomorrow?" I ask.

"Not at school but if you come visit me at that hospital yes." He chuckles.

"Right- you'll definitely see me there." I playfully wink.

"Good, you better get to bed for school tomorrow. Goodnight princess." He kisses me.

"Goodnight my prince." I smirk.

"Prince? Hmm."

"Makes sense if I'm the princess." I smile.

"You are extremely adorable and I love it but I think that would mean we are siblings unless we are married." He laughs at me.

"Fine then hold on-"

-Ruel's POV-

I watch her take one of her rings off her finger. She then kneels, a big smile spreads across my face.

"Ruel Van Dijk will you be my prince?" She smiles half giggling.

"It would be very rude of me if I said no. I would love too." I chuckle and she puts her ring on my pinky.

She stands up and smiles at me. How did I not know she would be my soul mate? I know I'm young but she is everything I wanted and needed.

"I love you Mads." I say.

"I love you too." She hugs me again.

I hold her tightly, I was going to miss seeing her at school, secretly watching her doing silly things and laughing to myself, watch that big smile appear when she sees me or her laugh that never gets annoying instead it gets more beautiful.

"Ruel don't leave- just stay tonight. Our first sleepover before you have to stay at the hospital." She looks up at me.

"Sounds like a plan." I kiss her.

We walk upstairs to her room.

"I'm going to have a shower. Don't go anywhere." She giggles.

"I won't move a muscle." I laugh.

"Good." She grabs her pjs and walks out.

I walk around her room, I look at her photos. I kept smiling at all of them. Wether it would be baby photos of goofy photos. I kept walking around and see one of our photos beside her bedside table. I take a deep breathe, I'm so scared to lose her- I had no hope in chemotherapy. I'm only doing it for her and my family.

"Hello stranger." she walks back with the towel twirled around her hair.

"Hey gorgeous." I smile at her.

"I brought you some of Harrison's pjs, he's out with his friends so he doesn't know." She giggles.

"Thankyou- I'll go shower come back."

She nods and I walk to her bathroom. It smelt like her perfume that she always wears. It was such an intoxicating smell. I shower and walk back to her room.

"So I've decided on two things we should watch. A or b?" She asks.

"I don't even know the options." I close the door.

"That's the point- no choose." She giggles.

"So unfair but fine b." I say.

"Okay we are watching The office." I smile.

"Luckily I like that." I smile and sit on her bed.

She sits in front of me and I lean over and kiss her cheek. She giggles and she started the show. I grab the hairbrush and start brushing her hair.

She turns around and smiles.

"You are very smiley." I say.

"Yes because you are with me." She replies.

I connect our lips, she runs her hands up my neck to my hair. I shut her laptop with my foot and push aside. I trail my kisses down her neck.

"Ruel-" she panting.

"Yeah?" I stop.

"Don't stop." She bites her lip.

I nod and continue kissing her. I unbutton her shirt and hover above her. I found my soul mate, I've kissed her and I've lost my virginity to her. I kept my promise after all.

What will happen next?
