"I suppose it would be fine." Kiku shrugged as he laid besides her as well. The grass underneath him felt unimaginably soft as if it was a mattress. The clouds above were showing all kinds of memories Maria had. "As long as I'm with you."
Maria blushed a bit at the last part he muttered. She couldn't control the things he said because he wasn't something she created in her dream. Everything else was under her demand. Deciding to change the subject, she elbowed him with little effort at his side and pointed at one of the clouds that didn't show anything.
"Remember the day we met at Yao's house?" Maria asked him. Kiku nodded beside her and a smile grew.
"How could I forget the day I met you," he chuckled. "You nearly beat Im Yong Soo to death when did his usual 'groping'. That was the funniest things I have seen so far."
She pushed his head away and sat up. "Stop reminding me of that weirdo," she laughed. "He'll only give me nightmares."
Kiku sat up with her. "Sorry, sorry. It was just so funny," he chuckled along with her. "Actually… This place isn't so bad. Would it be okay if I stay here with you?"
"I mean… I wouldn't mind your company." Maria smiled, not realizing what she had done behind those words. The two laid back down and stared at the clouds a bit longer, watching memories and reminisce at the good times and the bad. At one point, Maria's head was on Kiku's stomach as he patted her long, silky hair.
Kiku eventually forgot the time that had passed. He enjoyed being here in this world with Maria. Eventually he couldn't distinguish what was real and what was a dream anymore. Kiku closed his eyes for a moment, feeling exhausted all of a sudden. In his head, he could hear something familiar beeping but he couldn't recall what it was for. Then a sudden long beep echoed in his mind but he thought nothing of it. Instead, he opened his eyes again and found Maria on his chest fast asleep. And he too, felt his eyelids grow heavy as he closed his eyes once more, never to be opened again.
