Don't Forget
Nephrite
I'd like to say she knew it was me as soon as she glanced at me. She didn't. Her and Endy, they tend to his plants and drink tea every Friday afternoon, after they both are done with work for the day. Serenity is sometimes with them, but she prefers to go shopping with Venus on Friday afternoons. They seem quite casual with each other and Endymion told me it is because both himself and Jupiter are orphans, and they have been living on their own for a while and it was nice to talk to someone else who understood. Yeah, whatever.
She stands over a rose bush on his balcony as she waters it. The doorbell rings and Endy answers it. A guy with light brown hair and a giant smile walks in and makes small talk with the prince. I've seen him before, he's Endy's only friend in this time period. She walks in from the balcony and her entire face lights up when she sees him and he pulls her into a hug before they share a deep kiss. I can't look away. Endy walks off, obviously feeling awkward and leaving them to their kiss. It disgusts me. It truly does. They part and he whispers something that she laughs at. They both say a farewell to the prince and walk out. He comes over and notices that the box is open. He gives me a look of sorrow and I wish I could look away.
"Sorry you had to see that." He murmurs before he closes the box. Yeah whatever.
Another Friday comes along and she is here, tending to plants and talking to Endy and Serenity. Serenity asks Endy to go with her to go get some ice cream. Jupiter says to Endy she will finish up and leave. He thanks her and they leave. If I were able to touch, you best believe we would be on the couch. Right now. She continues with the the plants and seems to be enjoying herself. She notices Serenity left a stuffed bunny on the floor by the desk and she crosses the room and picks it up. She smiles at it and pets its head before setting it down next to my box on the desk. Her eyes glance at the four of us and her eyes look confused. She leans forward and looks at me in particular. Her eyes widen.
"Sempai." The tears begin forming in her eyes and I am utterly confused as to why she is crying and running out the door.
Later, when I asked Endy, his eyes widened and he told me that it all made sense and he said nothing else. Serenity bursted into tears and left to go find Jupiter. Why do I feel like I did something horrible?
