"That's how I end? I was so stupid to believe yhat he is gong to change."-you say to yourself sitting in the cage and felling tears in your eyes.

 "(Y/N), love, what are you doing here?"-you look up from from the place you are sitting and see Neo

"I can ask you the same question and don't call me'love'. What are you doing? I thought you are going to change for a better bud it was a lie.."-you say with cracking voice, avoiding his gaze

"Darling ,please, let me explain. Let's talk.."

"Now you want to talk! Ok, let's talk. I have one question."

"Yes?"

"Do you really love me or it was just a lie to manipulate us with thinking that you are a good guy?"

"Of course I love and I want to be with you. I love everything about you your eyes, your hair, your smile..."

"So, why are you doing this? Can we not go back to our future and lived there without this whole circus?"

"Maybe you are right. B-but this bandicoot... I need to fix the past."-he says opening the cage and running though the corridor.

"Neo,wait!"-you yell after him but he didn't listen. You've done one thing you could do right now, go out of the cage to find Crash and Coco and stop Cortex.'Why you have to be so stubborn Cortex?'

         *Timeskip*After final fight with Cortex

"Not like this."-future Neo says lying on the floor before boxes lands on his head

"Hmm, must 've taken a hit to the old temporal lobe. But a fallen foe can only mean one thing...it came to blows and I WON."-his past self says before he ran to exit-"My new Generals first order of business will be to dispose of you."

"You..Stay"-says Akano crushing Cortex on the floor

"Ugh..what are you going to do to me?-says Cortex

"Nuh-uh-uh! Looks like somebody needs a little time out..."-says Kapuna

"...somewhere he can cause any trouble"-says Lani-Loli

"Enjoy the end of the universe!"-says Ika-Ika. But before they throw Cortex into the rift, you run to the room.

"Guys,wait! Leave him."

"What!? What are you doing, (Y/N)?"-asked Coco

"Maybe it will sound stupid but despite what he did I still love him, even when he broke my heart few hours ago because of this. I will take care of him."-you assure them

"Do what you think is right."-says Aku-Aku

"Thank you. Kapuna, can you and others transport us back to our times and drop me and Neo to mu home? It will be great!"

"No problem."

Before you go with Cortex, you turn around to the others.

"Guys, you are free to visit in any time you want. You know where to find me."

"Of course (Y/N) and thanks for the help."-says Coco

         *Your house*( some random island)

"Oh thank you,(Y/N)..."-Cortex starts with sigh of relief

"Shh, don't say a word right now! I still consider if I want to slap you because of what you did or kiss you because I run at time to save you."-you say angry not looking at him.

"I would prefer the second option."-he whispers

"You want to know why I saved you, because I must be kind-hearted or stupid to still have a soft spot for you. Even when you broke my heart because of your ambition and stuborness."-you sat sadly at the table and stare at your hands. Neo seeing this came to your side, take your hand and give it the light kiss.

"I'm so sorry, darling. I didn't want to upset you. Please, my love, don't cry. I did what I did because I couldn't stand thwe thought I let you go that day and I wanted to get rid of this bandicoots and stop you from leaving."-Neo says

"But,I thought that you were happy that we reunite after this long time."

"I was and I am happy. Believe me. Now , I know that I was so selfish.And I only hurt you, the woman I love. Please, will you forgive, my love? I promise I will never do such things again."-he says while peppering your hand with kisses and squeezing it lightly.

You look at him in the eyes and see sorrow and regret. You squeezed back his hand which hold yours and curl lips in a small smile.

"Neo, honey. I believe you and I forgive you."-you say and lean in to kiss his cheek

"Thank you,(Y/N).For giving me a second chance."-he says with smile and kiss you happily giving you a hug. You hugged back and both of you stay like this for a while enjoying the moment. Until you decided to break the silence.

"So, do you want a small detour around the house? You will live here with me after all."-you say smiling at him

"I would be honored, darling."

        *Timeskip* few months later

 During this months Cortex did everything to show how much he cherish you and love  you to prove that he is a better man. Crash and the others payed you a visit a few times and were in complete shock seeing as Cortex change his attitude. 

Now you are sitting on a comfortable chair and read a book at peace. A the same time Neo is outside and hold a small ,velvet box with a beautiful ring inside in his hand. His head is clouded by many thoughts. 'If it's to early for this, if you say yes, what if you say no.' 

You look up from your book and look at his back.'He stands there quite a long time. Is something wrong?'-you thought and stand to meet him outside.

"Honey, is everything alright? You stand here for a while. I'm started to worry."-you say with concern, walking to him. When he heard your voice, he quickly hide box in his pocket and turn around to face you with smile.

"My love, yes, everything is fine.You don't need to worry. I just need some fresh air that's all."-he say scratching the back of his neck

"Okaay. But please, tell me if something is bothering you."

"Actually there is one thing."-he say, taking your hands and kneel on one knee.Your eyes went wide and you stand still and waiting for him to continue.-"(Y/N), love of my life. I know it may be a little to early but I can't wait any longer to ask you this question. Will you make me the happiest man in the world and marry me?"

"Neo Periwinkle Cortex, of course I will marry you."-you say and kiss him. He kissed back and smile , showing you the velvet box and sliding ring on your finger.

"Just think.Soon we will get married and after that there will be little children running around the house."

"I thought, I am the woman in this relationship."-you laugh lightly at his comment.-"But, if you want to, we could speed up a little part with children."

"What!? Like, r-right now ?"-he asks with shock and amazement. You only nod, take his hand and drag him to your shared bedroom.
