A sniff was heard from the lounge. It was followed by a sob, then another. At that moment, the room was filled with happy chatter as HEAVENS entered.

Eiji was the first one to hear the crying. He moved his eyes and found Catarina sitting on the couch, tears rolling down her cheeks.

"Rin-chan, why are you crying?!" His sudden exclamation caused the rest's gaze to shift to their composer.

"Eijiii!" Catarina found all of HEAVENS standing. She jumped into the arms of her beloved. "Eiichiiii!!!"

"Wo-woah, Catarina?!" He hugged the female back and his concerns grew. "What's wrong? Are you hurt?" The lady just continued to cry loudly like a child.

"Rinnaa, what's wrong?" Kira asked, worried.

"Guys...," Nagi deadpanned, "look." He pointed at the thing on the table. It was a CD. It was the CD of HEAVENS' latest movie 'Paradise Lost'. It was a movie with all of HEAVENS participating.

Understanding dawned on Kira's face. He stated,"Rinna watched the movie again." The rest understood and stood in silence as the crying was the only thing that could be heard.

"You guys...waah!!!" She continued to cry like a five year old. The younger brunette rubbed her back gently, "there, there."

"Seriously, you cry this much every time you watch it?" Yamato joined Nagi and deadpanned. The rest of the males sweatdropped.

"Our Na-chan is a kind soul. She must've felt really sad after watching it," Van patted her blonde hair.

"V-Van." She then clung to the oldest. He held her comfortably and continued his previous action.

"Shion?! Why are you crying now?" Nagi asked. Everyone turned to look at the albino boy.

"Amakusa can understand Rin's emotions. We both love HEAVENS very much."

"Shiiiion!" This time Catarina and Shion hugged each other and cried dramatically. Kira patted them softly and affectionately.

"I-it is the best movie! 'Paradise Lost' is the best movie ever!"

"Glad to hear it, angel," Eiichi grinned.

Eventually her tears, along with Shion's, stopped. Everyone was gathered in the lounge. With a big grin, Catarina suggested that all of them rewatch the movie again now that they are free. But she got flatly rejected because the boys didn't want Catarina to start crying again.

* * * * * * *
At night,

"You really love this movie,don't you?" Eiichi asked Catarina when they were in her room.

"Why wouldn't I love it? It's so beautiful and emotional." He sat beside her on the bed.

"That it is," he agreed.

"Eiichi."

"Hmm?"

He was surprised when she suddenly hugged him tightly. "Never bottle your feelings."

"Where is this coming from?" He hugged her back.

"Don't sacrifice your well-being for everyone like Lucifer did in the movie."

"What are you talking about,angel?"

"We all know that if you could get rid of all our troubles ,you would do it without hesitation. Even if you were to lose everything, you would still do it for others. If you were in Lucifer's position, you would've done what he did."

He chuckled. "You're right. I would do anything for you and HEAVENS."

"Eiichi-"

"Knowing you, you would've done the same, wouldn't you?"

"....Yes, but still..." Looking at her downcast gaze, Eiichi pulled her on his lap. He kissed her on the forehead.

"Don't tire yourself by thinking this."

"Hmm..." She pressed her ear on his chest. The sound of his heartbeat in rhythm with hers made her smile softly.

She opened her mouth, "Then at least promise me that whenever you are having trouble or have something you wanna get off of your chest, you'll come to me. I might not be able to do much but you should know that I'm always with you."

"I promise."

. . . . . . .

"Oh Eiichi, welcome back," Catarina smiled when she spotted the leader of HEAVENS.

"Mhmm, I'm back." He flopped down on the nearest chair.

"You seem worn out," Van patted the leader's back.

"Well, of course he is," Nagi added, "He's the busiest among us."

"Anything for HEAVENS." With that, Eiichi closed his eyes.

"Why don't you freshen up and go straight to sleep?" Kira suggested as he offered Eiichi a coffee mug.

"Yes,I'll do that."

"Nagi and Shion," Kira turned to the rest doing their own activities,"it's late. Go to sleep."

"Okay!" They answered the 'mother'.

Catarina looked down at her left. "Shion, get up." She poked the cheek of the sleeping boy. The poor boy had a tough day.

"Mmm,Amakusa is tired.....," Shion sleepily sat up and rubbed his eyes. Cute!!!

"I'll take you to your room, Shion." Yamato came and easily picked him up.

"Thank you, Yamato. But take me to Nagi's room."

"Eh? You're gonna stay with me again?" Nagi asked. "....It's not that I mind though."

Nagi, Shion and Yamato went to the youngest's room.

"I'm gonna lay down too. G'night, guys." Van, too, went to his room.

"Kira, if you don't mind, can you help me with this part?" Eiji asked, a script in his hand. The raven-haired man nodded. They headed for the former's room after bidding the remaining two good night.

"Eiichi, let's go." Catarina turned to the brunette who had finished his coffee and cleaned the mug.

"Sure." Turning off the lights, they headed to the male's room.

* * * * * * *

Eiichi came out of the bathroom wearing black pants and a red t-shirt. He found Catarina sitting his bed, earphones plugged to her ears and smiling broadly with a blush while looking at something in her hands. Slowly, Eiichi peaked from behind to find her looking at the cover picture of HEAVENS' latest CD 'Genesis HEAVENS'.

She hadn't noticed his presence behind her. So she squeaked when he pulled one of the buds from her ears to his.

He grinned. "It really is a soul-shaking song. Good!" She nodded with a grin of her own.

Once the song 'Genesis HEAVENS' ended, they took off the earphones.

Eiichi was the first to speak, after Catarina put the music player and CD on his table.

"What were you looking at so intently?"

"Oh, it was your photo," the blonde replied with a smile.

"Hmm,care to elaborate?"

"There's no doubt that you looked great in the cover of 'Paradise Lost' but you look really dashing here. Aside from being cool, you are giving quite a mature look here."

"I'm honoured to hear you say that, angel...... but why were you blushing?"

"E-eh? I what?!"

"You were blushing while looking at the cover."

"I-I didn't realize.....I was just thinking that..."

"That?" The blush on her face piqued his curiosity.

"That....how lucky I am to become your fiancèe... All of it sometimes feels like a dream."

"Catarina..." Eiichi's purple eyes soften, "it is not a dream." He brought her left hand to his lips and kissed the back of it, the engagement ring's sight making him smile. "And I'm the one who is lucky to have you."

"Eiichi..."

"I'm lucky to have someone as kind, generous, dedicated, nice and selfless as you." His words caused her to blush pink.

Eiichi gently pushed her down on her back and got on top of her. Their lips joined in a warm kiss and they wrapped their arms around each other.

When they pulled apart, Catarina asked, "....aren't you tired?"

"You take away all of my tiredness, my angel." Her heart thumped loudly in her chest. "Stay with me and I'll get rid of any sign of fatigue."

"Ah!" She exploded into a blush when he bit her just above her collarbone.

". . . . Y-you don't have to ask me to stay with you."

"Then will you stay with me forever?" Eiichi peered into her eyes.

"Forever," Catarina stated without any sign of hesitation or doubt.

. . . . . . .

Sound of the gentle breeze resonated in the place, innumerable stars twinkling on the night sky above. It made the blonde woman present there feel she was standing in a fantastical landscape. As her aquamarine dress swayed in the gentle breeze, her thoughts went prior to some years, to the time when she had become the composer of a certain heavenly group and how they ,one-by-one, called her name with affection, as if she was an angel.

"Rin."

"Catarina."

"Na-chan."

"Rin-chan."

"Rinna."

"Rinna."

"Catarina." At this, Catarina turned around to face the brunette male who had called her.

His voice is still so affectionate when he calls me.

"Yes,Eiichi?" She inquired with a smile.

With a small bow, Eiichi held out his right hand to her like a real-life prince. "Would you care for a dance with the stars as our audience?"

Looking at his smile, she couldn't but giggle. She placed her hand on his. "I'd he honoured to."

She let herself be pulled. The rustling of the leaves being their music, they danced slowly.

Catarina smiled, "You're being too princely tonight."

"Of course. Tonight is our first marriage anniversary. I have to make it special," replied Eiichi.

"I'm glad you feel this way. . . .But I think reserving a whole resort in the mountains is kind of overdoing it," she nervously laughed.

"It's no big deal at all." He grinned.

"Seriously, you didn't have to go as far as to booking it for us tonight."

"Maybe, but all I've been thinking about is how I want as much time as I can get with my wife without any bother or interruption. And if it means I have to do whatever it takes, then I will do so."

"Oh, Eiichi...." her smile resembled the shine of that of the stars above them, "thank you for making time for me,for us, Eiichi. I enjoyed it."

"Think nothing of it."

They continued to dance in silence, all the whole gazing into each other's eyes. The dance came to an end when Eiichi pulled her to him after the under arm spin.

Wrapping an arm around her waist, he lifted her chin with his other hand. She placed both of her hands on his chest. Slowly Eiichi leaned down and pressed his lips on hers. Catarina melted into the kiss.

After they pulled away, Eiichi spoke with a smile as tender as his eyes, "you look so lovely tonight."

"And you look handsome as always," she looked at him lovingly.

So much has happened in these years. With each incident came new experiences.

Their lips interlocked in another kiss, tightening their hold on each other. For a moment, Eiichi parted his lips and whispered, "I love you,Mrs. Otori Catarina"

"I love you too, Otori Eiichi."

Their kiss became deeper and their heartbeats merged into one.

No matter what happens, no matter how much trouble we face in the future, I know we can get through it. I will continue to give my best effort in everything as the Angel of HEAVENS and...

Eiichi brought his face to Catarina's ear, his warm breath sending her body into fire. In a husky voice, he whispered, "Only kisses won't satisfy me. Shall we take it inside?"

At this, Catarina's cheeks flushed red and heart started pounding wildly. With a bashful smile,she nodded her head.

.....and as Eiichi's angel.

                                                      The End.

This concludes the book ' Angel of HEAVENS (Uta no Prince Sama)'. All of you wonderful and lovely readers have my sincere gratitude. Thank you so much for reading this far and giving your support to this book. Words can't express how grateful I am.

I started this book when I couldn't tolerate the lack of HEAVENS fanfictions. They deserve so so so much more love, specially Eiichi. He deserves love. I hope that reading this book made you like Eiichi better. He isn't a bad person like some people think. It's just he was portrayed as an antagonist in Season 2. I seriously think that the writers made him as an antagonist in Season 2 so that STARISH has things to worry and Haruka pressures herself. I believe the Eiichi in Season 4 is the true Eiichi. Eiichi is someone who loves HEAVENS more than anything and is willing to do anything to keep his 'family' safe. He loves music and always pursues for 'soul shaking' music. His straightforwardness makes people think of him as a villain (like in the episode of 'Next Door'). Eiichi only did what he did for the ultimate music. He didn't have any intention of hurting Otoya. He only wanted Otoya to be true to himself like him. Eiichi had said that he understands Otoya's pain. So Eiichi must have wanted Otoya to face the reality and move forward like Eiichi did. (Okay, I guess it kind of turned into a rant😅).

Another reason why I started this book was because I couldn't hold my story ideas within me. I have many short story ideas for HEAVENS (Eiichi, actually). I plan to publish them soon even if no one wants to read them :P. I will probably publish those next year, so look forward to it if you are a HEAVENS lover (though I can't promise that my stories will be entertaining).

Let me state some facts. I don't own Uta no Prince-Sama, the pictures, the songs or the lyrics. I only own the story plot, Catarina and Mimori Akira. Also, the musical instruments mentioned for HEAVENS in Chapter 32 is made up from my beliefs. Since there are no informations about their instruments, I took the liberty to choose their instruments. As for the part in this final chapter (Chapter 55) when Catarina recalled HEAVENS saying her name one-by-one, I tried to make it like the scene from UtaPri Season 4 episode 1 where STARISH, Quartet Night and HEAVENS hold out their hands and call Haruka.

In this story, I have mentioned Catarina as a beauty quite a number of times. While writing, I had this image of her in my mind. The above image is what she looks like with long hair. Pretty, right???

Well, this story comes to an end here. I want to let you know that each and every comment made me incredibly happy. It made me want to work harder. But I apologize if you were disappointed or didn't like this book. However, I am proud of myself for completing a whole book in lockdown/quarantine.

Finally, let's keep loving Utapri, HEAVENS and Eiichi. Stay safe, everyone.

Thank you for reading this far (if you have).

❤💙💛💜💟💖💚 (there's no orange heart😢T_T)
