I have to go. I must go with Zekrom. There is no place here for us anymore. We have to go and save the Pokemon, Touko. I'll come back, I promise.

No, N. Don't go! Please! Your place is here. With me. I.. I Love..

Goodbye, Touko.

That's what happened exactly a year ago. N left me. Alone. After all we've been through, and the things I did to get his attention. Only for him to leave me and never return. Now here I am, at the place where we first met about two years ago, still hopelessly waiting to see if he keeps his promise.

I started looking at my phone after a while, going through old pictures of the two of us, looking through old it started to rain, and I just sat there, not even bothering to take out an umbrella. Just allowing the rain to support my mood. Heartbroken.

I started crying, or at least, I thought i was crying. It was hard to tell with all the rain. I missed him dearly. It's been over a year and I'm still hoping for him to come back. It's pathetic.

And then there was a tap on my shoulder. Someone must've walked up to me when I wasn't paying attention. Who the fuck is-

"Hey, Touko."

That voice. That's HIS voice! "N?!" I instantly jumped up, embracing him so tightly that I probably would've hurt him. I was crying even harder now. "Y-you.. you came back. You really came back." He nuzzled his head next to mine, holding me firmly. He didn't change a bit. I let go of him, gently plopping onto the ground, still bawling my eyes out. I attempted to wipe the tears. It didn't work. "You don't know how much I've missed you! You just left me all alone and scared. I thought I-"

At that moment N looked at me intensely, taking hold of my arm and pulling me close into him. My hands were now laying on his chest. N had one hand on my lower back and the other caressing my cheek. We were both so flushed with red.

"I'm sorry, Touko. I really am," He began whispering. N was beginning to tear up. He seemed so upset with himself. "I shouldn't have left you all alone and hurt. You have every right to feel the way you do, especially after I cut you off when I left. I couldn't bear hearing those words without my heart shattering." His face was now closer to hers.

"What was your answer?" I asked wearily. I couldn't even look him in the eye. I just wanted to hear him say it. "What would you have replied a year ago to me?"

N formed a small smile on his face, placing a little peck on my forehead, and then moving to my ear. He whispered to me those few words that I've been yearning to hear for over a year. "I love you, Touko. I love you so much."

"I love you, too," I smiled at him. We were both soaked from the rain, literally drenched down to the bone. Yet, that didn't stop him from taking hold of my chin and lifting my lips up to meet his. Our love colliding and being never ending yet again.

The End :)
