Soo… How's it going? It's been a while. Since November 25, 2017 to be exact. I'm deeply sorry for not updating guys. I've been busy with school and physical therapy. I'm out of physical therapy now though. Also this chapter is the last chapter. I was going to make this story longer but I've lost interested in it. I didn't want to leave it unfinished. I'm going to add an Epilogue to it so you'll be able to know what happens after the story.
Rin's POV (of course)
The twenty seventh. My birthday. Also Len's birthday. What have I gotten myself into today? Well you see here Miku basically begged me to throw a party for Len and I at my house. I didn't want to. So Miku took matters into her own hand and arrived at seven in the morning to set up a party. Fun right?
"HEY RIN! I NEVER TOLD YOU TO TAKE A BREAK! THAT GOES FOR YOU AS WELL LUKA!" Miku shouts at us.
"Miku we've been setting this up since seven. It's ten now can we please take a break?" I ask.
"Well we would of gotten finished sooner if two little girls didn't laze around for the whole damn time," Miku states a little angry.
"Miku we're tired give us a break," I respond getting up from sitting on the floor.
"JUST GET BACK TO WORK!" Miku shouts again. Miku will be a good boss in the military or something. Always shouting and commanding stuff yeesh.
Luka and I creep our way back to the boxes and boxes and BOXES of party supplies. Do we really need this much for a birthday party for two people? Well apparently Miku needs this much supplies. We already had streamers up isn't that enough?
I pick up a box of yellow balloons. Oh did I mention that Miku wanted the color theme to be yellow and orange? Sometimes I think Miku knows all her friends a little to well. I mean, I never mentioned my favorite color was orange to her.
I stalk over to the helium tank, that Miku found at a store somewhere, to fill up the balloons. It's a good thing she got this helium tank because I would've died from suffocating by filling up all these balloons. While I was filling up the yellow balloons, Miku came over to me with orange balloons because apparently 'We got to have the same amount of color in everys space.' In other words yellow can't over power orange and orange can't over power yellow.
"Hey Rinny that's a pretty necklace," Miku states. I look down at the purple butterfly necklace that Len got me.
"Thanks, Len got it for me for Christmas," I say with a small smile.
"Oooooo someones got a crush," Miku giggles.
"WHAT! No I do not have a crush on Len. It was just a Christmas present!" I snap at her with a small blush.
"Yeah sure," Miku says while walking away. Damn that Miku.
When I'm finished with the balloons I head into the kitchen to help Luka bake somethings for the party. I start baking chocolate chip cookies when the doorbell rings. I hear Miku chatting with a couple of people. I'm guessing that the boys arrived and that's who Miku is talking too. I slide the cookies into the oven as someone walks in.
"Hey Len! Happy Birthday!" Luka exclaims behind me.
"Thanks Luka. Happy Birthday Rin," Len says noticing my presence in the room. I mumble a thanks and a happy birthday back, but I don't look at him. I'm preoccupied with the cookies I took out before I put in the other batch. "Wow not even going to look at me? Am I that ugly to you Rin?"
"No," I mumble not really paying attention.
"So you admit I'm handsome?" Len asks. I blink a few times.
"What are we talking about?" I look up and smile at him clueless.
"You're hopeless you know that?" Len sighs. "Anyway, is there anything I can do to help?"
"No we're almost done in the kitchen," Luka says. "Rin you can stop helping now. I can get the rest," she adds smiling towards me. I set down the toothpick that I was using to test the cookies and went into the living room.
I can't recognize my living room anymore. It's now a mess of yellow and orange. Miku went all out on this dumb party. I let out a sigh as I think of the pain it's going to be to clean this all up.
"Miku this is a little much," I say to her.
"It's a party for my friends of course I'm going to go all out," she winks at me.
"Miku goes all out for everyone's birthday," Len whispers into my ear.
"Oh ok," I mumble.
We talked for a little while before Luka came out with the food. She even baked a cake; that was why she wanted me to leave so she can decorate it. She had it already baked before she got here but it needed to cool before decorating.
"Gather around the table everyone! LEN AND RIN YOU BETTER SIT BESIDE EACH OTHER!" Miku yells while waving the lighter she has in her hands around. Yeah scary.
Len and I sat down beside each other while Miku lights the candles. Everyone sings happy birthday and we blow out the candles. Gakupo cuts the cake because we don't trust Miku with the knife. Once the slices of cakes all are passed out, everyone digs on in.
"Luka this cake is very good," Kaito says with his mouth full.
"Thank you and next time don't talk with your mouth full," Luka replies happily. It is a very good cake though. It was a chocolate cake with yellow icing and orange icing spelling out 'Happy Birthday Rin and Len!'. I'll need to thank Luka later.
When we all finished our cake, we played some games. We didn't pass out gifts because Christmas was two days ago so we already got some. I wasn't disappointed though because who knows what these people would get me. We're currently playing uno.
"UNO!" Miku screams suddenly making me jump out of my thoughts.
"Geez Miku you don't need to scream that loud," Gakupo says while rubbing his ear. (A/N Yes Gakupo is still alive; I'm not too familiar with him so that's why I don't write about him very often) He was sitting beside Miku so it makes sense why his ear hurts.
The game continues until we eventually switch over to Dead of Winter. It's my first time playing this game. I'm doing well so far...I think. Ok I admit it's a little complicated but that's fine. The only problem is that the zombies are a little creepy. It's just a game you are fine Rin. I've have probably told myself that a million times. We eventually lost the game.
The day continues going by with us playing games and talking about random stuff. They eventually leave WITHOUT HELPING ME TO TAKE DOWN ALL THESE DECORATIONS! At least Len stayed back to help. Kind of ironic that a party for the birthday people ends up with the birthday people cleaning it all up.
TIME SKIP TO WHEN THEY'RE DONE CLEANING UP BECAUSE WHO WANTS TO HEAR ABOUT THAT :D
I flop down onto the couch with a sigh. Who knew that cleaning up an explosion of a birthday party will be so tiring? It's about five in the afternoon now.
"So tired," I yawn out. Len chuckles as he sat down beside me.
"Yeah it's never fun to clean up a party when Miku's there," Len chuckles as he leans back into the chair.
"Hey Len, I have a question to ask," I say suddenly. Len hums as a response. "Why do you think everyone wants to hang out with me?"
"Because you're fun to hang out with," He responds.
"What? No I'm not. I don't talk that much and I don't know what to do sometimes. I'm awkward and not popular. Definitely not pretty-" Len suddenly cuts me off.
"Rin Kagami! None of that matters. You are a nice person that doesn't judge people. You're a good listener. You're also very beautiful," he says.
"I'm not beautiful," I scoff.
"If you're not beautiful then why would I do this?" he says. I look over at him confused.
I freeze up when Len suddenly places his soft lips onto mine. I don't know what to do! Help me! What do I do! I start to panic on what to do. I need to breath! Len pulls away. Ugh why do you do this to me Len? I'm a tomato thanks to you!
"Aww you look so cute when you're embarrassed," he laughs.
"W-why did you kiss me?" I ask still a little stunned.
"Because I love you," he says while looking into my eyes.
"W-why?" I ask because I couldn't form any other word.
"You are an amazing person Rin. You just think badly about yourself. That's why you can't see any of your good sides," he says while pulling me into a hug. I relax into the embrace and then start to hug him back. We stay like that for a while.
"I-i," I start. "I..um..uh"
The words I want to say get stuck in my throat. I keep trying but I can't form the words that I want to say. I eventually stop trying and sulk into his arms. I fail at everything.
"Yes I know, you love me too," Len says while placing a small kiss at the top of my head. A small smile creeps it's way onto my face.
"I love you Len," I suddenly say. Who knew I would eventually end up loving someone? A depressed girl falling in love with one of the nicest people around.
"Hey Rin," Len says. I look up at him. "Um… will you be my girlfriend?"
I smile at him. Not a fake smile but a true, sincere smile. "Of course."
Len lights up with happiness. Guess he thought that I wasn't going to say yes to him. Len leans down and kisses me again. I kiss back a little bit. I'm still unsure what to do but I guess I'll see what happens.
Len stays over for a little while longer. We just talked. I'm honestly glad to have someone like Len around. He has definitely changed my life. My life now has a light to it. I'm not lonely anymore and not a shadow. Now that I think about it, I haven't been depressed lately. Is this what people call, Happiness?
The End
BAM finished! Honestly I was going to add more stuff to this story but I lost interested in it. Sorry guys. I'm glad I finished it though and with a good ending too. Sorry it isn't a very long story though. Man I said sorry a lot. Anyway, thanks to everyone who commented and stuck through with this story. I know this story wasn't that good but I think it was good for a first fanfic. I wrote this story for over a year. Amazing right? This has to be one of the longest projects I've stuck too if not the longest. I'll be uploading the epilogue to this story soon...maybe. There is going to be one though! It's time to say goodbye to this lovely story. So sad. I might write another one soon though. Thanks again to all the people who read this story and I'll see you all later. Goodbye!
