Chapter 23 [Memories...and Love..] Finale Episode

*Devin's POV*
After a nice flash back I got back to looking in the box , I grabbed the little black box and slowly started to open it , My eyes started to blur with tears starting to go down my cheeks , In the little black box was a necklace I had gotten for myself but Ritchie took it on accident and I just never took it back , Seeing it after so long makes me happy but sad at the same time , this Necklace meant so much cause the gem on the inside is my mother's , I loved my mother..I was her favorite..Until she was at work and got killed a store shooting , Eden was old enough to take care of me and Michael but it still broke me to not have my mother when Ritchie found out he wanted to come over but I told him I was fine, I wasn't i miss her..

I want my mom back and with imaginary magic you'd think i could imagine her but that's not how my magic works it can only imagine certain things .

After a moment of tears to go to Edens room and tell him who sent the package and grab the hoodie Ritchie gave me and Texted flurry about how happy I was,as I texted her I was waking to Flurry house she's use to me coming with no word or invite so I'll just walk, Once i got there , I knocked on the door and heard someone yell something , I knocked again and saw her boyfriend with his hair a mess
"Oh! Should i leave.." I say to him smiling "Oh! uuh no no it's not what it looks like We were playing a game and she messed my hair up " He stands to the side and lets me in , at this point I have Ritchie's hoodie on "Woah it's more clean than usual in here " I walk to the living room to see Flurry sitting their playing minecraft on her big screen " Devin!" she gets up and hugs me , while doing so she sniffs at me " Is this Ritchie's hoodie..?" I blush and nod slowly
"You must really love me huh Devin" Ritchie walks from the kitchen , His voice gives me goosebumps , because it's more relaxed then usual " Uh- R-Ritchie!" I run to him and hug him about to cry , Tears of joy of course , Of course i love him..

"Of course i love you!" I Hug him tightly holding in the tears i want to pour out , He wraps his arms around me too and starts to rub my back slowly making me feel comfort , I lay my head on his shoulder then i hear a giggle and my heart starts to race fast " Heh-, Sorry I don't know-" I look up to his blue eyes and hair , I feel my face get hot and i start to blush roughly , He giggles at me again

"Hey hey it's okay..I said it's fine for you to do whatever right..Maybe I'll end this break.." My eyes widen at the words he speaks , And his cheeks go red once we remembers that we aren't alone in the house , Flurry is holding Yamitsu's hand , Smiling at us trying not to laugh at quote " Wholesomeness"
We sit back down on the couch and They play minecraft together , I don't join cause I rather just watch

"Come here Devin." Ritchie whispers to me , I turn to him and crawl over to him " Y-Yeah..?" He pulls me to his lap
"Now you stay here.." He whispers softly to me now on his lap sitting "I..O-Okay.." He continues to play the game and I sit on his lap trying not to past out asleep , but my eyelids grow tired and I get dizzy , I scoot over a pit off his lap then lay my head down , I hear a chuckle before I past out asleep...
*
I woke up to being at Ritchie's house in his bed still wearing his hoodie , I can hear someone quietly snoring next to me and I turn over to see Ritchie with mess hair and his blush pink cheeks , I smile , and put my hand on his cheek , rubbing is with my thumb , I sigh and start to drag my figures through his hair , growing my smile making my own cheeks hurt , I remove my hand and I try to go back to sleep ..
*
After I fell back to sleep and woke up again Ritchie was awake on his phone texting someone, I just stared at him smiling and laughing , I don't know if i should feel jealous or curiosity , But definitely both growing on me "H-Hey..Ritchie, Good morning" He turns to me and his smile grows larger

"Devin..!, Flurry was texting me jokes all night looks at this one " He points his phone to me , I read the text and I giggle at the joke about tall hats so something "Pfft!, Ha! Haha! , That's-" Ritchie laughs at joke again " I know I know " He rips a laughing tear off his face , and reaches out his hand to mine
"You wanna hold my hand..?" He nods and I hold his hand , We talked for a while the jealousy in my gut still sat still He was just laughing at jokes it's fine , I'll be fine , I got tired again and passed out asleep with Ritchie again , Once I woke up again and Ritchie as Watching some show "Good morning Imagine boy" I sit up and laugh at the nickname his given me , I like it.

I sit next to him and slide my hand into his intertwining our figures , I start to rub my thumb on his knuckles and he starts to hum a tune that sounds familiar, I starts to blush again cause the song his humming is the song we wrote together "Hey Devin wanna listen to this song..?"

He holds up a disc , it's just a disc right..? " Sure..!" He stands up and puts the disc into a disc player and it starts off with just us talks and fighting over who should start first , I hear myself clean my throat and I start to sing , a slow song we wrote but the song brings back memories of how we both loved music

"R-Ritchie.. You kept the disc..?" He nods at me and pulls me into a hug, We sit like that for a while until He grabs my chin , And kisses me gently..
I start to hear him sing in the song , Stammering over the words as i help him in the background, I feel hands place themselves on my waist , and I put my hands around his neck starting to mess with his Electric Blue hair , We made out until we heard Brandon knocking on the door , Ritchie pulls away

"Yeah..!" He yells , Brandon comes into the room to just to see me and Ritchie together
"Oh- Uuuh I'll come ask you later, Have fun!" He closes the door and runs off , I feel my face get warm and I can already tell Ritchie noticed my tomato face
"His being silly calm down Devin" He pulls me into his lap and He kisses me about.. I love this guy...

"I love you ,Ritchie .." I whisper into his ear

"I love you too , Devin.." He kisses me again and we start a movie..
Before it could hit midnight I look to Ritchie's eyes glowing in the TV screen..
"You eyes look just like the stars.."
