As you were inside your room, you were staring mindlessly onto your (color of your gown) gown.
"Should I still go?" You told yourself as you deeply sighed, tooru's still not texting you .
"I thought you were my date.." You sadly say as you slumped your body onto your bed.
With you phone on your chest, you closed your eyes, and said, "text me please!"
And by then, your phone suddenly buzzed.
Eyes wide opened as you quickly sat down and scan thru your messages.
'To: (First Name)
From: Tooru
Hey, sorry about that, I misplaced my phone and I just found it. Sorry about yesterday too. Maybe I'll pick you up?'
And as of that, you quickly stood up and ran to your mother's room, "MOM! I NEED YOU TO STYLE MY FACE."
"You mean do your make up, dear?" Your mom said and giggled.
"E--err. Yeah I guess.." You shyly said as your mom stood up and said, "let's doll you up, honey."

"Mom." You blurted out.
"Yeah?" She said.
"Easy on the blush" you said,
"Aaaaa, my pretty daughter." Your mom said as she admired your looks on the mirror.
Any minute now, tooru should be here..
Y
ou fidget with your phone as you were anxious if he'd come late or whatsoever.
And then, the door rang.
"I'll get it, dear." Your mom said as she went out your room.
You quickly fixed yourself as you stood upband went outside.
"(First Name), your date is here!" Your mom said as you hurriedly went down.
"Coming, mom!" You said as you heard her say, "you are a dashing young man, aren't you?"
"Thank you, ma'am." It said as his voice didn't sound much like Tooru.
As you went down the stairs, you noticed a blond streak of hair and a dashing blue tuxedo.
"C-class president?" You stuttered.
"Took you long enough," he said as you completely went down the stairs.
"..yeah, what're you doing here...?" You whispered to him.
"I'm your date, I'd figure you don't have one." He said as he held your hand.
"Uh.." You uttered, 'tooru, where are you?'
"Let's go?" He said.
"Sure." You replied as your mother said her farewells.
"Be home before 12:30" she said and led the both of you out the door.
The both of you walked to school because it was a walking distance.
It was a bit awkward but, it was pretty much okay. Did tooru ditch you?
"(first name)." Yuri broke the silence.
"..what?"
"Is your date suppose to be that tooru guy?" He asked.
"Yeah, unfortunately."
"He ditched you, huh?"
"Don't put it that way!" You said as you admit that you were sad.
"Maybe he's late." You told him.
"Yeah, that maybe's gonna kill you someday."
"Excuse me?"
"You are talkative."
"You're quite fun to be with." You admit.
"I am, aren't I?" He said as he mentioned that the both of you were almost at school.
"Wait, yuri." You said.
"why did you decide to be my date?" You asked him.
"Its a must to have a date, you idiot."
"Your date didn't show up."
"I'm here to save the day and your math grade."
"Are you sure that's it?" You questioned him
"Positive."
"Okay then." You said as he took your hand and went in the venue of the school.
"Be social."
"Don't tell me what to do." You said as you smiled at him.
"Jerk" he said
"Douchebag" you shot back.

"(First Name), dont you want to dance?" You heard one of your classmates say.
"Uh no, thanks for caring." You said as you stared at your phone.
"Where are you.." You said as you stared at your phone.
"Stop staring and start enjoying, you're looking old." Yuri mouthed.
"I'm waiting for my real date, Yuri." You said with a determined tone.
"Are you sure?" He said,
"Of course, I'm sure!" You said with determination.
"Hold on to your determination a little longer." He said as he took your hand and pulled you into his arms,
"Right now, we have to dance." He said as he stared into your ice.
"I can't dance.." You whispered.
"Then follow my lead." He said as he took a step and you did as well.
The music went through your ears like a warm melody you can listen to forever.
Forever. It..sounded a bit wrong. With heavy thoughts, you accidentally stepped on Yuri's foot."o-OH IM SO SORRY!" You said in a rather loud manner.
"Yuri, are you okay?" You asked
"He's not coming." He said.
"What do you mean?" You said,
"He's not going here."
"Yuri, you dont mean that..do you?"
"(First Name)..he's not—" you cut him off as you saw tooru from your vision.
"Tooru!" You yelled at you hurriedly ran towards him, leaving yuri behind you.
You saw Tooru's expression.
Sad, yet happy. He wanted to see you so badly.
"Where have you been?" You said while tears ran down your cheeks.
"(First Name), i have something to say.." Tooru suddenly said as he wiped away your tears, you look back at Yuri, somehow with regret in his eyes, but it didn't matter to you at the moment. You wanted to know what was happening.
"What is it?" You asked.
"I'm going to miss you.."
"I tried avoiding you.."
"But I couldn't."
"What do you mean? Tooru, y-you said you can be whatever my heart wants—"
"(First Name), I will always be inside your heart."
"What..do you mean..?"
"(First Name), its..."
"Time for you to wake up." Tooru said and whispered,
"I'll be whatever your heart wants me to be."
"But right now, you need to wake up from this dream."
"I'm sorry if I couldn't last forever."
And as he said that, it was over.
The music stopped, your tears were in vain, and you saw him, slowly, walking out of your vision.
"Never forget me please."
