Perfectly Arranged • Alejandro Rosario

30 • Peace Pact

Y/n pov:

I've spent six years with Dad and Kouvr now. I feel happy, but empty at the same time. They don't complete me in a way that Alejandro did. But I missed them and I want to spend as much time as possible with them.

I haven't seen Mattia. It's only me, Dad and Kouvr. There's no one else here. It's like a world filled with just our family. A reality where we were the only ones to exist. It's crazy.

Today, we're going to Walmart to pick up groceries. I went into my bedroom and picked out an outfit from my closet and showered and changed.

We all got into the car and Dad drove as we sang our hearts out to Taylor Swift. She was always mine and Kouvr's favourite.
We arrived and Dad picked up the normal stuff and I ran around with Kouvr grabbing unnecessary stuff. It was weird because every time we'd buy something out, it'll be back the next day as if the whole world reset. Me and Kouvr skipped down the sweet aisle grabbing as many packets of anything as we could. We ran back to dad and dropped them in the trolley. In all the 6 years, we'd never aged a day.
"Really girls? Every single time," He laughed.
"Well dad, if we don't get fat, age or have to pay, why not?" Kouvr laughed.
"She does have a point dad," I laughed.
"Okay okay, I'll just leave you girls to it," He laughed. We walked with him throughout the shop as we talked about things.
"I really miss Kio and Mum," I sighed.
"You'll see them again y/n, it's okay," Dad said as he pulled me in for a hug.
"I know Dad, it's just it'll be so long until then," I sighed and hugged him back. I felt Kouvr wrap her arms around the both of us.
"Family hug," She giggled. I love her so much.

We were packing the shopping into the back of the car when I felt this weird feeling in my stomach. It was like a pulling sensation. As if I was a paper clip being pulled to a magnet. I suddenly started moving back. I screamed and tried running. Dad and Kouvr grabbed my arms and tried pulling me but as soon as I touched them they disappeared. I screamed again as everything faded away and turned to black.

I opened my eyes and saw my house. Mine and Alejandro's. I slowly opened the door and walked inside. I saw Alejandro on the sofa with a little boy on his lap and Bex laying beside him. He looked older but still as gorgeous as I last saw him. I stood in front of him but he kept watching the tv as if I wasn't here. What's going on? Bex began to whine, maybe she knew I was here. Alejandro put his hand on her head and gently stroked her.
"I know baby, I miss her too," He said sadly. A tear rolled down my cheek as I watched the sadness fill his eyes.
"Miss who daddy?" The little boy said. My little boy.
"Your mummy," Alejandro smiles at him softly.
"Who was my mummy?" My little boy asked.
"Diego, your mummy was the most beautiful woman I had ever met. She would always make me laugh and make sure that I was happy. She loved to cuddle and watch movies. Just like we do together. She loved pizza as well, her favourite was exactly the same as yours and her favourite ice cream was cookies and cream which you eat everyday. She was the most amazing person you could dream of marrying, I loved her very much," Alejandro said softly to my little boy, Diego. Diego. Just like I'd asked.
"What happened to Mummy? Where is she?" Diego asked sadly.
"Your Mummy had to go somewhere else when she let you into this world. But it's okay, you'll see her one day, I promise," Alejandro smiled as a tear rolled down his cheek. I just want to hold him and let him cry. But if I could, he wouldn't be crying in the first place. Bex sat up and licked away Alejandro's tears and he giggled just as he used to. I smiled through my tears at the sound of it. Diego wrapped his little arms around Alejandro and hugged him and Alejandro gently hugged him back.
"What do you want for your 6th birthday?" Alejandro asked as he tickled Diego.
"Chocolate cake," Diego giggled.
"You have that everyday," Alejandro chuckled. He's an amazing dad.
"Can I have a party? And invite Nessa?" He giggled. Who's Nessa?
"Is Nessa the pretty one that you have a little crush on?" Alejandro chuckles.
"Yes, pleaseee," Diego begs.
"Of course you can have a party," Alejandro similes. I watch as they begin to play fight and Alejandro is extra careful with him. A tear rolls down my cheek as I wish I was there. I felt a hand slip into mine and intertwine our fingers.
"You're here," He whispered. I turned around and smiled so brightly. I jumped into his arms and he hugged me so tightly.
"Oh my god Mattia, I've missed you so much, where have you been?" I said as I hugged him. He put me down and looked at me confused.
"What do you mean? I've been here looking for you for the past 6 years. Where have you been?" Mattia asked me.
"I was with Dad and Kouvr," I told him. "Were you here alone?" I asked him as I put my hands on his cheeks. He closed his eyes and tears fell from his eyes.
"It hurt so much to watch them. Watch them cry over us. Watch them fight over us. They fell apart. Kairi's on the other side of the world but he's happy. Alejandro is here, he cries every night but he's so so strong for Diego. He loves you so so much y/n, why didn't you make it?" He said quietly, almost a whisper.
"I had to leave, Diego had to live," I whispered.
"You gave your life for Diego?" He whispered.
"Just like you gave yours for me, I'm so so sorry Mattia. We shouldn't have stayed, it's all my fault," I cried. He looked at me and took my face in his hands. He kissed my forehead and looked into my eyes.
"It's okay y/n, I forgive you," He smiled. I smiled back and he held my hand and looked back at Alejandro.
"Did you find peace?" Mattia asked me.
"I was happy but I felt so empty," I said sadly. "But I don't feel empty anymore," I added.
"Same here, how about we try and find peace together?" He whispered.
"That sounds like a plan," I whispered back.
Everything began to turn into light and Alejandro disappeared before me, along with Diego and Bex. Everything then turned to darkness and I felt Mattia's hand slip from mine.

I woke up to the sound of birds outside of my window. I opened my eyes and saw I was in my room at home. Mine and Alejandro's home. I yawned and climbed out of bed. I made my way downstairs and smelt pancakes. I walked into the kitchen and saw Mattia cooking.
"Mattia?" I say quietly. He turns around and smiles at me.
"Hey y/n," He smiled.
"What just happened?" I yawned.
"I think we're at peace," He said quietly.
"Maybe we are," I smile.

End of pov.
