S1/E18: Death Bed (Final Part)

(Votes are in, and the winner for the potential lemon is...

Drum roll, please.












LOONA!

Why am I like this?

Anyway, enjoy this chapter.)

Y/n is once again seen in his house, teary-eyed and this time lying in his bed. He looks over at his nightstand to see another picture of him and Vaggie, but this time he was in a nice suit and Vaggie was in a lovely purple dress. Vaggie was holding his arm close to her as she leaned her head on Y/n's shoulder, and the blonde rested his head on hers. Next to the picture was a small black box that was no bigger than Y/n's palm. It was empty, as he had already given away the contents. But he had it back, and he held it in his hand.

Y/n: "Why was it you...?"

Three Years Ago...

After Vaggie's first night at Y/n's apartment, time passed as Vaggie slowly coped with living regularly as a handicapped person in a small apartment with Y/n. Said rose-cheeked freelancer did his best to help Vaggie to the best of his abilities. After shopping for clothes, Y/n and Vaggie came to the realization that Y/n had to help Vaggie change clothes... and bathe. It got awkward, but they both kinda got over it.

Over the rest of the year, Vaggie and Y/n had grown rather close, and at times a nice warm feeling invaded his chest when he thought about or was with Vaggie. The blonde knew what that feeling was. He's experienced it before. He just wasn't sure Vaggie was feeling the same way. They've also grown to know each other better. Y/n learned that Vaggie liked to dance and sometimes she would put on goofy little dance shows for him and his pets to watch. He would even join her most of the time. And Vaggie learned that Y/n had a fascination of snakes, so she bought him a necklace of a snake coiled around itself. He loved it, which made Vaggie happy.

Speaking of Vaggie, she was slowly but surely gaining the ability to use her broken limbs again. After a few surgeries, Vaggie was free from her remaining arm cast and one of her leg casts. She was also now free from her wheelchair which was returned to the hospital and was instead given crutches to use. This gave her a bit more freedom to move around, but Y/n made sure that she stayed safe and that she stuck to her current limits. The Salvadorian appreciated the efforts, but it kinda got annoying. Y/n was acting like a concerned parent or sibling, which she found cute. At least she could change and bathe herself now... but she sometimes needed her best friend's help.

One time, Vaggie was trying to get a cup from the cabinets on the wall so she could get a drink. However, the cup she was reaching for was out of her reach. She groaned and nearly called Y/n for help, but refrained from doing so as she got an idea. She hopped up and propped herself on the counter on her free leg to grab the cup. Unfortunately, her attempt failed and she slipped off the counter and fell on the ground. She even knocked over a dirty glass cup, shattering it as some glass shards got in her arms. She cried out in pain and her crash was enough to get D/n barking, making Y/n run out of the bathroom to see what was going on. His face half shaven and part of it covered in shaving cream, the blonde panicked when he saw Vaggie lying on the floor bleeding and immediately ran to help her. He brought her back to the bathroom where he kept the first-aid kit and sat his crush on a stool while he went to get the first-aid kit. When he grabbed it, D/n had walked in and sat next to Vaggie as he tries to lick her wound, but it only made the pain worse. So she pulled her arm away, making D/n just rest his head on Vaggie's free leg. Then, after washing off his face, Y/n walks over to her with the first-aid kit and sets it down as he kneels down. He opens the kit and takes out some small pliers, and uses it to carefully take the shards of glass out of his roommate's arm.

Y/n: *translated from Spanish* "How did this happen?"

Vaggie: *sighs in Spanish* "I was trying to get a cup for a drink. I hopped on the counter for better height advantage, but I slipped and fell. A dirty glass cup fell with me... and you know the rest. Ah, fuck!"

Vaggie swears and winces in pain as Y/n takes out a deeper lodged piece of glass out of her arm and into the sink.

Vaggie: "Can you please be a little gentler?"

Y/n: "Sorry. I'm used to fixing myself up, not others. I keep forgetting people haven't taken as much as I have."

Y/n says and takes out the last shard. He places the glass in the sink and puts the pliers down before going back to the kit. Vaggie looks at him, recalling the days that Y/n would sometimes return to her covered in bruises and cuts. Sometimes even more than that. It scared her to think that, at any moment, she could lose someone as important to her as Y/n so easily thanks to his job.

Y/n pulled out some cleaning/disinfecting wipes and some rubbing alcohol. He dabs some rubbing alcohol on a wipe and touches Vaggie's wounds with it, making her swear in Spanish.

Y/n: *translated from Spanish* "Sorry. It's gonna sting. Want to hold my hand or something."

Vaggie nods and Y/n smiles softly as he offers his hand to her. She takes it and grips it tightly as her roommate rubs the wipes on her wounds. She cries out in pain and even swears at times, but always squeezes Y/n's hand to the point where she thought it would break. However, Y/n only winced a bit at every new squeeze but mostly ignored it as he wiped away the blood on Vaggie's arm.

Vaggie: "How are you so good at this?"

Y/n: *stops and looks up at Vaggie* "At what?"

Vaggie: "With dealing with pain. How are you so good at it?"

Y/n: "Well, after everything I've been though, pain just turns into a minor inconvenience. Sure, when I get hurt by something specific, like a knife stabbing into my arm or something, hurts like a bitch. But after that, it's just more of a discomfort than anything."

Vaggie: "Wow... I sometimes forget how strong you are."

Y/n: "You think I'm strong?"

Y/n asks Vaggie playfully, giving her a teasing smile which made her blush and look away.

Vaggie: *translated from Spanish* "W-well, yeah..." *English* "But don't get any ideas!"

Y/n: "Heheh. Don't worry. I won't." *translated from Spanish* "But I think you're pretty strong, too."

Vaggie glances back at Y/n before blushing harder and looks away.

Vaggie: "Idiota..."

Y/n chuckles at this and pulls his hand away to grab some stitches and a needle. He throws the stitching through the needle's top part and ties it before looking up at Vaggie.

Y/n: "Now, this is gonna sting. You're not going to be able to hold my hand this time either, so you're gonna have to deal with it, okay?"

Vaggie: "A-alright..."

Y/n smiles assuringly at Vaggie and begins to stitch her wounds. The Salvadorian winced at every pull and quietly yelped as tears pricked her eyes. However, Y/n soon finished with all the wounds and puts away the stitching and needle back into the first-aid kit, and replaces it with some wrapping bandages. He unrolls it and wraps it around Vaggie's arm before putting it away. Then he looks back up at Vaggie and smiles.

Y/n: "There we go. All better now. That wasn't so bad, now was it?"

Vaggie: "Shut up..."

Vaggie says in amusement, giving a smile which Y/n loved to see. And without thinking...

Y/n: "You have a really pretty smile."

Vaggie blushed and looked at Y/n in shock. Even the blonde himself was a bit surprised that he said that, but wasn't freaking out about it. It was what he thought. Why she he hide the truth?

Vaggie: "Th-thank you..." *thinking* 'Fuck! Quick! Give him a compliment back!' *aloud* "You're ch-cheeks are cute." *thinking* 'The fuck was that?!'

Y/n only smirked as he placed a hand on his cheek.

Y/n: "Which cheeks?"

Vaggie only blushed more at this as she covered her face with her arms.

Vaggie: "D-don't say stuff like that! You know what I mean!"

Y/n laughs at that but only smiles at the end of it as he rests a hand on Vaggie's head. She looked at him with her right eye, her left still bandaged.

Y/n: "I know. You're just easy to tease."

Y/n says, making Vaggie chuckle nervously. Then the blonde gets an idea. An absolutely wicked idea that would probably make Vaggie try to stab him if they weren't friends. Scratch that. She would still try to stab him, but he was going to do it anyway. He leans in and presses his lips against Vaggie's cheek, giving her a quick, soft kiss before almost immediately pulling away. He smiles and sees a huge blush spreading literally all across Vaggie's face.

Y/n: "I'll go get dinner ready. Have fun processing that!"

Y/n whistles for D/n to join him and the Bloodhound does so with a bark goodbye to Vaggie. Vaggie held her cheek with her free hand as she processed what had just happened. Then a goofy, silly grin spread across her face as she lets out a small, but happy giggle.

"Meow."

Vaggie yelps in fright and surprise, and turns to see C/n sitting on the bathroom counter. Like always, the black cat was staring at her, but now it seemed like she had a reason to do so.

Vaggie: "Don't look at me like that."

Vaggie tells C/n, making her meow again before hopping off of the counter and walks out of the bathroom. Vaggie then sighs and stands back up with help of her crutches as a million thoughts go through her head. Then she laughs when she realizes that half of Y/n's face still needs to be shaved. He had forgotten all about that when he came in to help Vaggie.

Timeskip...

Months pass and Y/n and Vaggie's relationship has remained somewhat the same. However, to get back at him for teasing her, Vaggie has been trying to tease Y/n back and get him flustered or embarrassed. That plan had actually proven to be completely terrible, because Y/n wasn't one who can easily get flustered or embarrassed. So instead of the blonde getting flustered, he turns it on Vaggie who always falls for it and immediately becomes flustered. Y/n always found it cute when she blushed or got angry, which only made Vaggie even more flustered. But a part of her seemed to... enjoy those moments with Y/n, both when she tries to tease him and when he teases her. She... liked hearing his sweet talk to her. It gave her a nice, warm feeling inside.

Finally, after those few months, Vaggie was finally able to get her leg cast off and have the bandage around the left of her face off. She was now finally able to walk properly, but she would never be able to see out of her left eye again. It would make things difficult for her, and has been since her eye had been bandaged for about a year now, and her depth perception was going to be terrible now until she taught herself to just see with her right. Y/n would help with that, thankfully.

During the next few weeks, Y/n helped Vaggie get used to walking around without her crutches and with only half of her sight. Y/n thankfully always caught her or helped her back up when she fell. Eventually, Vaggie had gotten used to walking around like how she was now thanks to Y/n. Though she wore an eyepatch now rather than some bandages over her eye now.

Right now, Vaggie and Y/n were watching some old episodes of Wipeout, which they both enjoyed watching together. They always laughed hysterically when the contestants got hurt, but also watched in awe as the contestants sometimes breezed through whole segments of the courses. Then they got whacked in the face and the two returned to laughter. However, Vaggie seemed a bit bored and disinterested this time in the show, which Y/n noticed.

Y/n: "You okay, V? Something seems to be on your mind."

Vaggie: "It's nothing. It's just... I'm bored. Isn't there something we can do other than... watch TV and whatnot? I know we go out sometimes, but I just want to do something, y'know?"

Y/n: "Yeah. I see your point." *gets an idea* "Hey. You remember that dress I bought you?"

Vaggie: "What about it?"

D/n and C/n perk up as they were also curious.

Y/n: *stands up* "Get dressed. We're going out."

Timeskip...

Later, at early nighttime, a (favorite car) pulls up to a building and parked in front of it. Out of the driver's side came out Y/n in a nice black suit with a red tie. He walks around his car and opens the passenger side door and offers a hand to his passenger.

Y/n: "M'lady."

A giggle was heard and a white gloved hand without fingers grabbed Y/n's hand and was pulled out of the car, and was revealed to be Vaggie in a lovely purple dress with her hair covering her useless left eye.

Vaggie: "You're always so silly, Y/n."

Y/n: "Anything to put a smile on that pretty face of yours, Miss Vagatha."

Vaggie blushed a bit and looked away, flustered by Y/n's words. But she smiled nonetheless at him calling her pretty.

Y/n: "Shall we head in, M'lady?"

Vaggie keeps her smile as she turns back to her roommate.

Vaggie: "Y-yeah."

Y/n: "Then let's go."

Vaggie nods and, without realizing she was still holding his hand, followed Y/n to the entrance to the building. There was a man in a black suit wearing black sunglasses by the door with red ropes going down to the right that held in a long line of people. However, Y/n simply led Vaggie past the line and straight to the door.

Vaggie: "Uh, Y/n? Aren't we supposed to go to the line?"

Y/n: "Don't worry. I know the owners of the place. Trust me. All is fine."

Vaggie nervously nods and turns to look at the line they were passing. She catches the glares and confused stares of those in line, but Y/n ignores them with that usual smile on his face. He brings Vaggie to the front entrance and looks at the man in the suit.

Y/n: "Hey, Richie."

Richie: "Hey, Mr. L/n. Who's your friend?"

Y/n: "This is Vaggie. Mind letting us in?"

Richie: "Of course."

The man smiles at the two and opens the door for them, making the people in line angrily shout protests while Y/n only smiled and thanked Richie as he brought Vaggie inside with him.

Inside, music played and the smell of food hit Vaggie's nose. She turned to Y/n in curiosity.

Vaggie: "Where are we?"

Y/n: "Vaggie, I welcome you to my favorite club. Say "Hello" to (club name)."

Vaggie looks around in awe as she and Y/n enter the main area. Dozens upon of people were either dancing or eating at tables at the sides. There was even an arcade at one corner for some reason, but it was packed full of people, just like the rest of the club.

Vaggie: "You... brought me here? To dance?"

Vaggie asks Y/n as she looks at him in surprise.

Y/n: "Of course. You said that you were bored and wanted to do something, so here we are. I know you like to dance, so I thought you'd like this."

Vaggie: *smiles* "Thank you!"

Vaggie, in her excitement, kisses Y/n on the cheek.

Vaggie: "Thank you!"

Without realizing what she did, Vaggie ran into the crowd of dancers with a laugh of joy. Y/n touched his cheek where Vaggie kissed him and smiles as he goes to join her on the dance floor. The two went through the night, dancing and enjoying themselves as Vaggie laughed every-so-often when Y/n twirled her around. Vaggie was having the time of her life, smiling the entire time she danced with Y/n. That warm feeling she liked stayed the entire time as well, giving her a bit more pep in her step than usual. Y/n also savored his dances with Vaggie, smiling the whole time and laughing with Vaggie. He loved hearing her laughter. It made his heart skip beats.

Later, Y/n had went to get drinks for him and Vaggie after dancing for so long. Maybe even some food. Yeah, definitely food. And when he returned, he did not like what he saw. In front of him was some random drunk trying to mess with Vaggie. And when I say mess, you know exactly what I mean.

Vaggie: "Hey, watch the hands, cabrón!"

Vaggie orders the man as she yanks her arm from him.

Rando Drunk: "Oh, come on, babeeeeey." *hic* "I'm just trrrrrryin' to make some smmmmmall talk. Heheh."

Vaggie: "Sorry, but I have someone to do that with already."

Rando Drunk: "Oh? Annnnnnd who would thhhhhat be?"

"Me, pal."

The drunk turns around, only to be met with a bottle to the face by Y/n. It shatters upon impact and knocks him to the ground, landing unconscious.

Vaggie: "Y/n?!"

Y/n: "Vaggie, are you alright?"

Vaggie: "I-I'm fine."

"Hey! What's this all about?"

Y/n turns to see a man about as drunk as the man he knocked out walk up to him with a small group of five behind him.

Y/n: *motions to knocked out drunk* "This your friend?"

Man #1: "My friend? He's my best mate! What you do to 'im?"

Y/n: "You're best mate was messing with mine. I gave him a lesson that only works with pain."

Man #1: "Then we outta teach you a lesson, too!"

Y/n: *sighs in disappointment* 'Here we go...'

The man throws a drunken punch at Y/n who only casually dodges it. Then he grabs the man's arm and flips him around, making him fall to the ground. The people around gasp as they back away in shock, and the man only groans and glares at Y/n.

Y/n: "You were saying?"

Man #1: "Get 'im!"

The man orders his friends who all charge at Y/n and Vaggie. Y/n only sighs again as he grabs a nearby chair with his foot, pulls it towards him, and kicks it at the drunks. They all trip over it and fall to the ground, and Y/n runs to Vaggie and grabs her hand to run off.

Vaggie: "Huh?!"

Y/n: *smiling* "Come on! Before they get back up!"

Y/n drags Vaggie out of (club name) and they run to the car. Vaggie gets back in the passenger side while Y/n gets in the driver and, quickly putting in his car key and starting the car engine, drives away with a huge smile on his face.

Vaggie: "What was that?!"

Y/n: "Sorry! Couldn't help myself. Felt like an action movie scene for some reason."

Vaggie: "No, I'm just saying that that was amazing! I've never seen in fight before, so seeing you do all that so easily was h--..."

Vaggie catches herself before she finishes what she was going to say. However, Y/n knows she was gonna say something and being the stubborn fool he was...

Y/n: *smirks* "No, no. Go ahead and finish that sentence."

Vaggie narrows her eyes at Y/n but looks away with an angry blush. The she sighs as she turns back to Y/n.

Vaggie: "It was... hot."

Y/n smiled at this as he kept his attention on the road and slowed his car down a bit to where he was driving at the speed limit.

Y/n: "Thank you. And now that I think about it, it was pretty cool how you were mouthing off to that drunk. Hot, even."

Vaggie blushed a bit and smiled as she looked away and rubbed her arm in a flustered manor. Y/n only smiles as he can't help but think of it as her being cute. She rarely showed that side to anyone but Y/n, which he has noticed. To others, she was hard and defensive, always having a wall up and around her. But with Y/n, she seemed always so happy and a bit more expressive. She smiled whenever she was with Y/n... as long as nobody around made her lose it. He didn't mind it. He liked being with Vaggie. He would love it if it could be that he would be with her forever.

As Y/n drove, Vaggie was thinking about some things. She's been with Y/n for a little over a year now, and she's noticed how different their relationship has become over their time together. She remembered when she first met him and didn't trust him at all. She didn't trust anybody much after the incident that ended with her in the hospital with Y/n feeding her for most of her time there. But, after being with Y/n after that, she started to trust and open up to him. They've been growing closer and closer over the year they've known each other, and feelings Vaggie wasn't used to having gave started to grow in her. Feelings that made her heart skip beats and made her stomach feel like butterflies were playing a crazy sports game inside of her. But those feelings... made her happy. She felt happy and safe with Y/n. And looking at him, she could tell he was amazing. She told him that, but Y/n made sure she was told the same. He made sure Vaggie felt loved. Love... Is that the feeling she felt around Y/n?

She felt her stomach flutter again. Then she turned to look back at Y/n. He had such soft-looking hair that was actually soft, rosy cheeks that were actually adorable to look at, such kind (E/C) eyes, and... kissable lips. She wouldn't admit it, but Vaggie's had... dreams about her and Y/n sometimes. Some were... odd, while others were more enjoyable and pleasurable. But in every one she was kissing Y/n. The thought made her face flush, but a small smile made her way to her face. Maybe an actual kiss wouldn't be too bad.

Y/n: "Hey, Vag. Something on your mind?"

Vaggie snapped out of her thoughts and looked at Y/n. He was staring right at her with his kind eyes, and the car was stopped, presumably at a stop light. But Vaggie didn't notice that. What she noticed was the usual smile Y/n had on his face. And one thought came to her mind.

Vaggie: 'Fuck it.'

With that, Vaggie grabbed the collar of Y/n's suit and pulled him close to her. She smashed her lips against his, catching Y/n completely off-guard as his eye widened in disbelief. However, he immediately closes his eyes as he smiles and eases into the kiss. He lets go of the steering wheel with one hand and uses it to hold Vaggie's cheek as he and her kiss passionately. They didn't care if they held up any traffic, even if they were was no one behind them. It was late at night and there weren't many cars this late. And then they part and looked at each other.

Vaggie: "W-wow..."

Y/n: "Yeah... Honestly, I've been contemplating whether or not to kiss you for a while."

Vaggie: *blushes* "Really? Why haven't you done it yet?"

Y/n: "I, uh, thought you'd stab me or something."

Vaggie let out a laugh, making Y/n do the same as he thought it was pretty funny, too.

Vaggie: "Might've, might've not. I'm just glad I finally did that."

Y/n: "Me too."

Y/n said as he leaned his forehead against Vaggie's. She smiles as she does the same.

Y/n: "I know a place where we can have some fun. Cool shops and stands and whatnot. Wanna go?"

Vaggie: "I'd love to."

Smiling, Y/n nods and finally puts the car in drive and drives off to the shop area that he had in mind. When they arrived, Vaggie and Y/n had one if their best days ever. They did some light shopping and had a picture taken of them together. Then, later that night, Y/n and Vaggie went back to their shared apartment and changed into some more comfortable clothes to sleep in and went to bed together, cuddling each other as they slept the night away.

Then the years went by. The two spent the following two years together and each day was basically their best day over and over again. They never grew bored of each other and loved every moment they spent together. They even bought a house together and moved out of the apartment. They cared for each other, and when D/n died Vaggie comforted Y/n, along with his family. At certain nights, Y/n and Vaggie even had some more pleasurable times. And at one point, Y/n had to beat up and scare the shit out of people who tried to rape Vaggie. People who he thought were his friends. And then one day, Y/n bought something special for a special night that he wanted to share with the most special girl he's ever known. After a dinner date in the winter time, Y/n and Vaggie were walking through a park to see all the wonderful Christmas decorations littered everywhere.

Vaggie: "I still can't believe how amazingly beautiful the Christmas decorations are here in (city name)."

Y/n: "Yeah. But they're nothing compared to you, Vaggie."

Y/n tells his love, making her smile as she leans forward and kisses Y/n's cheek.

Vaggie: "Gracias, mi amor." (Thank you, my love.)

Y/n: "De nada, mi preciosa." (You're welcome, my precious.)

Vaggie gave a little laugh at Y/n's nickname for her and pecks him on the lips.

Vaggie: "You know what else I can't believe?"

Y/n: "What?"

Vaggie: "That we started as complete strangers to each other. I was in the hospital and we met via you feeding me food." *chuckles* "I hated everything, and then I met you. Now you're my everything."

Y/n: *chuckles* "I love you, too, Vaggie. And there's actually something I wanted to ask you for a while now."

Vaggie looks at her boyfriend in curiosity as he takes out his phone and goes to his music player. He presses the play button and music starts to play. He smiles at Vaggie as he begins to sing.

Y/n:
"🎶 Can't say how the days will unfold,
Can't change what the future may hold
But, I want you in it
Every hour, every minute 🎶"

Vaggie smiles in slight amusement as she hears Y/n sing. It wasn't something she expected tonight.

Y/n:
"🎶 This world can race by far too fast
Hard to see while it's all flying past
But, it's clear now,
When you're standing here now
I am meant to be wherever you are next to me 🎶"

Y/n takes his lover's hands and places them on his shoulders. Vaggie immediately just wraps her arms around her boyfriend's neck as Y/n wraps his arms around her waist. They sway back and forth to the music.

Y/n:
"🎶 All I want to do
Is come running home to you
Come running home to you
And all my life I promise to
Keep running home to you
Keep running home
To you 🎶"

The two then part as Y/n leads Vaggie to a nearby bench in the snow covered park.

Y/n:
"🎶 And I could see it
Right from the start
Right from the start
That you would be
Be my light in the dark
Light in the dark
Oh, you gave me no other choice
But to love you 🎶"

They both sit down a Vaggie's smile never left her face, making Y/n smile. He loved seeing it. Then he caresses Vaggie's cheek as he continues to sing.

Y/n:
"🎶 All I want to do
Is come running home to you
Come running home to you
And all my life I promise to
Keep running home to you
Keep running home
Home to you 🎶"

Then Y/n reaches into his jacket pocket as he stands. He takes out a small black box as Vaggie covers her mouth with her hands in utter shock.

Y/n:
"🎶 Can't say how the days will unfold
Can't change what the future may hold
But, I want you in it
Every hour, every minute 🎶"

Y/n gets down on one knee and opens the box to reveal a diamond ring inside of it. Happy tears were appearing in Vaggie's eye as she laughs in surprise.

Y/n: "Vaggie, ever since we've known each other, you've made me so happy. We may have had a rough start, but these last three years were the best I've ever had. So, Vagatha, will you make me not just the luckiest, but the happiest man alive... and marry me?"

Vaggie: "Oh, my God! Yes! Yes! I will!"

Y/n's smile couldn't have grown any wider at that moment. He took the ring out of its box and slides it on to Vaggie's finger. Then they both stand as tears of joy were rolling down Vaggie's cheek and she hugged her new fiancé who happily hugged back. Then they kissed, lovingly and passionately. Everything round them faded to nothing as they only felt each other. They were happy. Nothing could ruin that perfect moment.

Later, the two are seen driving back to their home with smiles on the faces. Vaggie was talking about how their wedding could be and Y/n threw in his two cents in as well. However, he let Vaggie do most of the talking. He loved how excited she was over everything, but he couldn't help bit chuckle at one point.

Vaggie: "What's so funny?"

Y/n: "Sorry. It's just that I just proposed and you're already coming up with a plan. I know that it's just something that you do, but can we go to bed first? It's late, and a good night's sleep will be good for both of us."

Y/n drives his car at a curve on the road, arriving on a mountain/hillside where the nearby harbor was. Water below splashed against the docks.

Vaggie: "Right. Sorry. I'm just really excited, y'know? I never thought this day would come, let alone find love."

Y/n: "I'd have to agree with you on that one. I never had a lot of luck with relationships before you. I guess you're my one in a million."

Vaggie: "Heheh. Yeah. But I'm still teasing you about sleeping with a guy one time."

Y/n: "Oh, my God! That was one time. When I was out of high school! I was experimenting! A one time thing."

Vaggie: "Yet you still find men attractive."

Y/n: "But not as attractive as you~"

Vaggie and Y/n laughed at this. Then they quieted down as Y/n refocused on the road. The car was filled with some o Vaggie's favorite music, upon her request earlier. Then Vaggie became a bit nervous as she felt her stomach. After all those time having fun at night, it has only recently came to her mind to take a... test. And she didn't know if she wanted to share the results with her new fiancé. But maybe it would be best. What else could make this night even better than this?

Vaggie: "Y/n? I have some big news to tell you, actually."

Y/n: "What is it?"

The blonde asks his lover as he turns to her. She looked at his face, covered Ina smile. She wondered how he would react to the news. But... he would find out sooner or later, so now would be the best time. Taking in a deep breath to calm her nerves and releasing it, she looks up at Y/n.

Vaggie: "Y/n, I'm pre--LOOK OUT!"

Y/n snapped his head forward to see a truck barreling towards the two of them. Panicking, Y/n quickly turns the steering wheel to the left to avoid the truck. However, due to the ice on the road, the ground was slippery and the car veered off-road and crashed through the railings at the side of the street marking the road boundaries. The car rolls and crashes down the rocky side of the mountain/hill, throwing the two inside of it around before it lands at the docks, the front of the car stuck in the shallows of the harbor. Everything was silent except for the wind and the splashing water and the ships nearby along with the occasional chirping birds. There was nothing else... and then a gasp came from the car and Y/n snapped awake. He looked around in a panic, his mind trying to process what had just happened as it was in overdrive. He didn't even register the blood seeping from the cut on his forehead, his broken and bloody nose from the airbag that went off, and the glass covering his suit. His eyes were darting all around the car... and then they landed on Vaggie's limp figure in the next seat. Everything stopped, and all Y/n could process was his future wife's body slung over in her seat, the only thing keeping her upright being the seatbelt around her. Tears began to show in his eyes.

Y/n: "No..."

He slowly raised his arm up and touched the Salvadorian woman's shoulder, only to get no reaction. He began to shake her. Still no reaction.

Y/n: "No... Please, don't do this to me. Vaggie...? Vaggie, please! Please! Wake up!"

Y/n began shaking his lover's lifeless body over and over in an attempt to wake her up, just to see her beautiful brown eye again looking at him. Nothing happened though. Nothing but the tears rolling down Y/n's face as he held back sobs. She couldn't be dead... She couldn't! Then he slowly stopped shaking Vaggie's body, and instead began to wrap his arms around her as he brought it close to him.

Y/n: *crying* "It's okay... Everything's okay... You're okay... "

He couldn't hold it in anymore. Y/n began to sob as he held Vaggie close to him. Then he let out a heart-wrenching scream that cracked the ground near him without his knowing. His love was gone. Taken from him forever.

Timeskip...

Over the next three weeks, Y/n was issued into a hospital and patched up and was praised for surviving a terrible accident such as the one he was in. He never cared for their words. All that was on his mind was Vaggie. Then came her funeral. He couldn't bring himself to pay attention to whatever the people there were saying, or to listen to the people's attempts to comfort him. He didn't care anymore. Reality had set in for him. The girl he's loved for the last three years was gone... forever.

The rose-cheeked blonde fell into a depression, basically all color fading from his body leaving him as he only looked like a grey figure in pajamas. He rarely had any energy to get out of his bed and do anything other than to feed C/n and occasionally feed himself when he was hungry enough. He didn't talk to anyone, either. He spent basically all of his time in bed as he mourned over the lost of his love. Barely any TV was watched, and his house was messy and without much noise. No music, no talk, and no laughter. It even looked like the house itself had turned grey with its owner, mourning the loss of Vaggie as well. No lights came on, and Y/n never even showered or bathed himself. It felt like he had no energy inside of him at all. Most nights he even cried himself to sleep. And that is what brings us to now, with Y/n lying in his bed as he fiddled with the ring he offered Vaggie, his (E/C) eyes just as dim and colorless as they were bloodshot. He wondered what would've happened if he hadn't taken his eyes off the road that night three or so weeks ago.

The sound of a door opening outside his room made its way to Y/n's ears, but he payed no mind to it. If it were robbers, they could take as much as they want. He already lost his everything. However, he heard someone call his name, but he didn't respond. He wanted to be left alone. And to give him his request, C/n stood up from her lying position next to Y/n and hopped off the bed and to his room door. Then he heard a soft meow and his door creaked open, and two voices spoke up.

Susan: "Y/n...?"

Ryan: "You in there, buddy?"

Y/n gave no response, but C/n meows and Y/n felt something hop on to his bed and then plop on top of him. Then two collective sighs were heard and, after a few short footsteps, Susan and Ryan sat down on their son's bed. The blonde finally looked at them as his parents sat on either side of him.

Y/n: "Hi..."

Susan: "Hey, buddy."

Ryan: "How're doing, pal?"

Y/n: "Vaggie's gone... What do you think?"

Ryan: "I know, bud. I-I'm really sorry. I know how much she meant to you."

Y/n: "She was my everything..." *tears up* "And now I have nothing..."

Susan hugs her only child as Ryan does the same.

Susan: "I know how hard it must be, losing someone you you cared for so much. I lost my mother at a very young age. It was heart breaking, but I had people there to help me. So that's what we're here for. You shouldn't push us away."

Y/n: *starting to cry* "Does it..." *sniff* "Does it ever get better?"

Susan: "At first, everything is just utter garbage. You hate everything and everyone. Sometimes it gets worse. But... it will get better with time. As long as there's someone to help you, there will be a brighter light at the end of the tunnel."

Y/n: "Why was it her? Why did it have to be then?" *crying* "I had just proposed... We were going to be parents... So why?"

Ryan: "Y/n, when you give someone you care for flowers, which ones do you pick?"

Y/n nearly broke down as he answered.

Y/n: "The most beautiful ones..."

Y/n held his parents close as he cried. They said nothing as they hugged their son, and C/n made sure to contribute to the comforting. Y/n may not have realized it then, but he had gained something important even after he had lost the most important thing to him. It was the love of family, even if this one was lacking one member.

Sorry that this one took so long! But I hope you enjoyed! Also, apologies if the ending wasn't all that good. I did my best. And this is probably the longest chapter in the story so far...

Alright, buh-bye!
