Unexpected events can happen at the most unexpected time. You, yourself, can never predict what can happen within your life, everything is a mystery since day one.

It feels like it was just yesterday, that my soul been lifted from reality. I can remember that day perfectly, as if it had just occurred.

That day was a normal morning, as the sun was rising. It was like every other day, but something unexpected was about to happen, with me not expecting it.

As I was approaching school that morning, by the school gate stood the boy-- the boy that I had always admired.

He stood there, staring straight at me with his everyday bright smile; his light brownish hair flew with the wind as it blew.

My heart raced, as I walked closer to him. I wasn’t sure why his present was there, nor did I want to make any assumptions, quickly I looked at the ground, as I continue my way to the school gate.

Approaching him, I can feel his eyes beaming straight at me, my heart beat faster with every step I took.

Suddenly two feet came to my view-- blocking my way. I quickly stopped and looked up, there in front of me stood Kamenashi Kazuya.

“Akanishi Jin,” he suddenly said, “Would you go out with me?”

Hearing the question, my eyes widen as I stared at him. My heart suddenly stopped; the boy that I had always had a crush on since the first day I saw him, the boy that would light up my days, my encouragement to go to school, he was now standing in front of me-- smiling.

My mind was screaming, screaming for joy, yet it didn’t know how to answer the other. Before I knew it my mouth spoke for itself.

“Yes.” I answered, staring into his eyes, as a warm, sweet smile grew across his face.

The bell rung, snapping me back to reality.

It been a couple of months now since that day had occurred. Yet, we had never done anything as a couple; we haven’t been on our first date, walk home together, have late night conversations, nor had we ever had a decent conversation.

Just some stares from afar and exchanged smiles, some texts here and there, but nothing more. Every time I tried to come up with something, he would turn me down, since he’s always busy and never have time.

It feels like I’m still just watching him from afar; wishing for him to notice me, to acknowledge my existence.

Letting out a deep sighed, I looked up ahead of me, and there, there in front of the gate, stood Kazuya with his usual bright smile, staring straight at me.

My heart quickly raced like usual, though it is not anything new, but just knowing that that smile was toward me, have my heart racing all over again..

As I walked toward him, I couldn’t help myself, but return the smile.

He raised his arm to wave, as I quickly did the same. I was coming closer to him, every step makes it harder to breathe, or maybe it was just me thinking too hard. Were we going to walk home together? Did he want to go on our first date? Questions fill my head as I made my way toward him. I should speak first, I should greet him first, I-

“Yuriko!” he suddenly called out, breaking eye contact with me.

My smiled vanished, my heart shattered; I froze there in place, unable to move as he ran passed me.

The moment when you thought that the world finally revolves around you, it vanished right in front of your eyes.

Slowly with enough strength, I turned around to see who he called out to, who he was with…

I watched him talking and laughing with a girl, they were off in their own little world, not caring for anyone around them, not even noticing my existence. For a second, I thought he did see me, I was sure it was my eyes that he looked straight at, but was that also just a part of my imagination? Maybe I was just thinking too much again.

Staring at them my heart sunk, within that few second they met up and talked, they had talked more than we had in the months we been together.

Slowly I turned back toward the gate and walked home with an aching heart, acting as if nothing had happen.

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

As night time fell, I sat there in front of my desk, just thinking about our relationship.

Though we have never done much as a couple, just knowing that we exchanged smile, already kept me awake at night.

*ding ding* the ringtone of an incoming text snapped me out of thought as I grabbed my phone and checked. The name of the sender suddenly made me sit up straight.

It was a message from Kazuya.

“I’m sorry about earlier, I was in a rush. Forgive me?”

I froze as I read the text and slowly I felt a great relief come over me. He did notice me, he saw me and our eyes did meet! I couldn’t help myself but smile dumbly at the text message. He always manages to brighten my nights with just a single text. Even his simple ‘Good night, sweet dreams’ text always worked like a charm.

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Christmas was just around the corner and I had to finish my Christmas shopping.

Though I am not certainly sure if I am able to spend the special day with him, I still wanted to get him something, to indicate that I am happy with him.

As I made my way home, I came up with the perfect plan, for our first date.

I had recently got some tickets to a show that I been wanting to see for some time now. And since it open near Christmas I thought it would be nice to go together.

Thinking about asking him, already got me smiling. I could already imagine him standing in front of me, with that warm smile of his, as I ask him out.

“Tonight, tonight I’ll call him.”

Throughout the whole day, I found myself paying more attention to my phone than usual. Deep down, I hoped that he was also thinking about me and maybe he’ll call me first, but sadly, that wasn’t the case.

It was getting a bit late and I felt it would be rude to call him if I waited longer, so I pull up the courage to convince myself to call him. I had never called him before, so I wasn’t sure if he’ll even pick up, especially if I was disturbing him at a bad time. Taking a couple deep breaths, I finally manage to dial his number.

As the phone ringed, my heart was racing faster, but sadly he didn’t pick up and it went to voice message. I hung up, feeling disappointed, I took another deep breath and tried again, just in case he didn’t hear the first time, but then again, like before, he didn’t pick up.

Slowly I sat my phone down, as I picked up the two tickets.

“The show is tomorrow...but I can’t even get a hold of him.” I was disappointed, my perfect date, wasted.

Suddenly my phone rung, catching me by surprise as I quickly grabbed it. It was Kazuya. Seeing his name for the first time appearing on my phone screen caller ID, I couldn’t help but smile.

Quickly, I answered it.

“Hey, you called?” he interrupted.

This was the first time that I had heard his voice through the phone, was this how relationships suppose to feel like? I couldn’t help smiling the whole time, my heart was racing, it was like a dream. I suddenly remember that he was still on the other line.

“Uh, yeah,” I quickly answered snapping out of thought, “I was wondering if you were doing anything tomorrow afternoon?”

Suddenly it became quiet on the line.

“If you’re not doing anything, I was just wondering if you would like to catch a show with me.” I can feel my heart racing faster than usual, as I await his answer.

“I’m sorry Jin.” he suddenly said, “I don’t think I can make it tomorrow, I already have a bit of a plan tomorrow.”

Again, I felt my stomach dropped, I was disappointed, but I couldn’t let him know that. I gave out a small laugh and smiled even though he wasn’t even here with me, “Oh no, it’s fine. Its was my fault for not asking earlier.” I hoped that the laugh didn’t sound too forceful.

“I’m sorry.”

“No, don’t be, its my fault.”

“Jin, I have to go now. I’ll text you later, okay?”

“Okay. Bye bye.”

Hanging up the phone, I looked back at my tickets again, “I guess it’s a date by myself tomorrow then.”

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

The show went faster than I had thought. Even though I found myself being captivated by the event, I couldn’t help taking notice of those around me. The audiences were fill with couples of all ages; from younger high school couple to older grandparents. Maybe since it was the holiday, everyone seem to be spending their time with someone special.

It made me wonder how it would be like if Kazuya had gone with me. I gave out a laugh to myself at the thought of him being next to me.

I sighed, watching my hot breath becoming smoke within the cold weather.

“It’s getting colder; I hope Kazuya is keeping warm…” I smiled at the thought, that was when I glanced up and notice someone on the other side of the street. I wasn’t sure if I was seeing it correctly, or if it was just my imagination. I closed my eyes and shook my head, trying to get a clearer view. But it was still the same sight and it was as clear as daylight. In front of me stood Kazuya with the girl from school, laughing and waiting to cross the street too.

I felt my heart dropped. I couldn’t keep my eyes off them. He looked so happy being with her, his smile completely changed, you could see the joy within his eyes. My heart was aching in pain; every beat it made, it felt like a needle was stabbing it each time.

That was when the light changed color and the people around me started to cross. I saw them, they were coming toward me. I didn’t know what to do. I didn’t understand why, but I couldn’t move my legs. It was like they were glued to the ground and wouldn’t budge no matter what I did.

“They can’t see me like this, I have to hide,” I kept telling myself, but it wasn’t helping. They were getting closer. I couldn’t let them see me in such a devastating state, with the last of my strength, I forced a smile on, hoping that I’ll be able to greet them casually.

He was only an inch from me, I gulped, pushing the greeting out, hoping it will come out.

“Hey-” and suddenly he walked passed me, never once looking my way, he just walked right passed me.

My smile dropped, my breath shortens, my heart was aching, my whole body frozen in place as I felt my tears coming. I didn’t understand why, maybe because I used all my strength to force the smile on, but I suddenly feel the world spinning as my legs gave out on me and I collapsed to my knees. I couldn’t move, I couldn’t find the strength to move. He told me he was busy? How can he be with her, if he was busy? Did he lie? Questions now suddenly starting rushing to my head and I couldn’t think straight anymore.

People walked past me as I just sat there, unable to think straight. I felt like the world suddenly became blurry. Everything became blurry and uncleared. I no longer knew what to do.

After repeatedly telling myself to get up, I was able to calm my heart and find the strength to stand up and go home.

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

I spend the rest of the day thinking about everything thoroughly; rethinking about our relationship again. I been trying to be optimistic about everything, but I don’t think I can endure this anymore.

With this determination, I dialed Kazuya’s number, “Hello?” hearing his voice made my heart dropped, was this the correct choice?

“Uh-hi.” I managed to utter out. I wasn’t sure where my determination went.

“Did you need something?”

“Oh no,” I answered, “I was just wondering if you were doing anything tomorrow.”

Kazuya went quiet once again.

“Are you free anytime tomorrow? I need to see you.” I added, knowing that the long paused was going to be a ‘no’ once more.

It went completely silent on the phone, “Well, if its very important,” he said breaking the silence, “I can meet you at the park near my place at 11:30 P.M. is that okay with you?”

“Yes, I’ll meet you there tomorrow then.”

“Okay, see you tomorrow then.”

“Bye…”

As I hung up the phone, my body was shaking once more, my heart was racing faster than fast. This is really it.

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

The next day flew in a flash; before I knew it, it was already time to get ready to meet him.

I wasn’t sure what to do anymore, my heart was racing awfully fast now.

Taking a deep breath, I grabbed the gift I prepared for Kazuya and headed out.

The Christmas lights fill the street as I made my way toward the park where Kazuya said to meet. I would had admired the beautiful scenery more if I knew what was going inside my heart.

As I reached the entrance of the park, I stopped, he was already standing there waiting for me.

Seeing him my heart raced like usual, but this time it was aching in pain as it was racing. My body started shaking as I approached him. I slightly smile at him, “Did-”

“What was it that you wanted to tell me?” he interrupted.

I stared at him, not knowing where to start anymore. My mind completely went blank. I can feel the tear now building up behind my eyes.

I raised my arm to hand him the gift, “Merry early Christmas.” I managed to say.

Kazuya grew a smile upon his face, “This is what you wanted to tell me? You couldn’t wait until tomorrow to give me this? It’s not even Christmas yet.” he said accepting the gift with a laugh.

Usually if I was to see this, I’ll be smiling with joy, my heart would race with happiness, but instead my tears couldn’t hold back, my heart was screaming in pain. I turned away, locking my eyes to the ground as I felt the tears rolling down my cheeks, “Lets… Lets break up.” I managed to say, the words were getting harder to speak out, but I had to continue, I had to end this, “The times that we been together, I will always remember them.” I stopped to take in a breath, “I appreciated everything, I would never forget those texts you sent to make my nights better, the smile we shared. I enjoyed all the time we had together, but I don’t think we should pull each others’ hearts anymore.” a hiccup escaped my throat as I covered my mouth, sniveling as I gulped, pushing myself to finished, “I don’t think I can be with you anymore. Lets go separate way Kazuya.” I could no longer fight back the tears as they were now streaming down my cheeks, “Thank you for everything.” I whispered, as I covered my mouth tightly, muffling my cries as I quickly turned away.

Closing my eyes I could only let the tears fall, no longer able to try and hold back, “Thank you, thank you for everything, Kazuya.” I managed to spit out, as I started walking away. This was breaking my heart, but it was for the best. If two people doesn’t love one and another, what is the point of holding on, I could no longer stop these painful tears.

“Jin!” he called out.

“Don’t turn, don’t turn. This is for the best.” I repeated to myself. My heart was aching with every step I took.

“JIN! STOP!” he yelled.

Suddenly the whole park went pitch black.

With this, it caused me to stop in place, as I looked around. I could no longer see my path. Why did the park lights turn off? Then suddenly before my eyes, one by one, each tree started lighting up in different colors. In just a few second, the whole park was covered in lights of Christmas colors, music started playing.

My eyes widen, I was in complete shock as I looked around. The park became a winter wonderland. My tears kept falling, as much as I kept wiping them, they wouldn’t stop. The beautiful lights shined through my blurred vision.

I turned to see the lights all around me and suddenly I stopped. He was standing there in front of me. Once more, the boy of my dream stood in front of me surrounded by the beautiful lights that I always imagined him in. And once more, he smiled, his sweet smile at me.

Slowly he approached me, “Merry Christmas Jin.” he said, as he grabbed my cheeks and wiped the remaining tears, “I’m sorry for everything,” he added, “I don’t want our relationship to end. I’m sorry for what I had done.” he grabbed me as he tightly hug me, “These past few months, I didn’t mean to avoid you, I been working, trying to rent this place. I should be honest though, I met up a lot with Yuriko, because she knew people who can help me rent this place easier. I had been trying to fix this place so that I can spend Christmas with you. I never thought that I would hurt you like this.” he paused, as he slowly let go and backed up until our eyes met, “Let this be a new beginning for us.”

Tears fill my eyes once more, but this time it was tears of joy; the tears of happiness. I didn’t know what to say, it was my fault for jumping into conclusion, it was my fault for assuming things. I wanted to tell him that it was my fault, but nothing was coming out of my month, I was too choke up in my tears for anything to come out.

He cupped my face again, as he wiped my tears once more, “I’m sorry for everything.” he repeated, as he smiled at me.

I manage to pulled a smile on my face also.

Slowly he moved in toward me as I closed my eyes. He place his lips upon mine.

It felt like I was dreaming, my heart was racing, as I felt myself melting with the kiss..

Breaking away from our first kiss, he placed his forehead on mine, “I love you Akanishi Jin.” he whispered, as he lean in for another kiss.

Though tears were shed, heart was shatter, at the end my tears been wiped away, my heart is once again recovered by the one I love. At last I was able to spend my Christmas with Kazuya.

Within life alone, anything can occur in a short period of time. No one can ever predict what the future holds, anything and everything can happen after one unexpected event.
