Chapter 7: Colors Everywhere
Part 2
NATSU
I've been staring at the ceiling for almost an hour now. It is past 11:00 p.m., and I can't sleep that night. Something is bothering me, but I can't point out what it is.
I shift my gaze to the side, but something on the table beside my bed catches my eye.
It is a picture of her, her eyes reflecting the colors of electric rainbow lights, years ago.
-*-"-*-"-*-"-*-"-*-"-*-"-*-"-*-"-*-"-*-"-*-"-*-"-*-"-*-"-*-"-*-"-*-"-"-"-*-"-*-"-*-"-*-
I had been nervous the whole time. I'm not really myself! How can I be when I spent the whole week finding a perfect present for her? Would she be happy?
I just want her to be.
After all, I sneaked it out when I accidentally saw it in her apartment, three days ago.
-*-"-*-"-*-"-*-"-*-"-*-"-*-"-*-"-*-"-*-"-*-"-*-"-*-"-*-"-*-"-*-"-*-"-*-"-*-"-*-"-*-"-*-
Whenever I was out of her sight, I always looked for her novels. One time, when I was searching for them in one of her bookshelves, I found one of her most precious things: her diary.
It had a pink cover with colorful stars scattered around it, like the stars in the night sky, except that the sky is colored pink, which was weird. I opened it and what was written on first page contained what I had been looking for.
My Wishes for Life!
1. Finish My School!
2. Become an Author and Publish my Novels!
3. Rainbow Sakura Tree Viewing!
Numbers 1 and 2 were impossible to achieve right now, but the last wish was possible. I was grinning like forever, but...how could I blossom the sakura tree when it was the season of autumn?
I sighed. Way to go, Natsu. You can time-travel with her in the future.
Which was impossible.
One night, I was walking home and the stores that I have passed by have these colorful electric lights. An idea struck me.
-*-"-*-"-*-"-*-"-*-"-*-"-*-"-*-"-*-"-*-"-*-"-*-"-*-"-*-"-*-"-*-"-*-"-*-"-*-"-*-
I constantly checked on my watch from time to time to be prepared for the time. It would light up at exactly 6:00 p.m., and if I didn't notice the time passing by - because I'm with her, my bestfriend, time seemed to slow down, and I was not cheesy here or what...it was just the feeling I'd felt - I'd be screwed up in my plan.
But one thing that was weird was how she never brought up anything about her birthday. Does she want to keep it a secret from us? Or...
How can she forget her own birthday?!
I stared at her in disbelief.
She noticed me, and I glanced away, pretending to appreciate the beauty of sunset before us.
-*-"-*-"-*-"-*-"-*-"-*-"-*-"-*-"-*-"-*-"-*-"-*-"-*-"-*-"-*-"-*-"-*-"-*-"-*-"-*-"-*-
It was nearly the time. I needed to do it now.
The song always remind me of her, my bestfriend.

"Colour Everywhere"
.
Used to seeing black and white
Never really in between
Waiting for the love of my life
To come into my dreams
Everything is shades of gray
Never really blues or green
Needed someone else to turn to
Someone who could help me learn to see
All the beauty that was waiting for me
.
Luce came into my life and brought light to my lonely world.
.
You, you put the blue back in the sky
You put the rainbow in my eyes
A silver lining in my prayers
And now there's colour everywhere
.
You put the red back in the rose
Just when i needed it the most
You came along to show you care
And now there's colour everywhere
Everywhere
.
My life is so predictale
Never any mystery
But ever since you shined the light
All of that was history
Now i have a hand to hold
And a reason to believe
There's someone in my worth living for
I was hanging around just wishing on a star
To put the happines back in my heart and...
.
You, you put the blue back in the sky
You put the rainbow in my eyes
A silver lining in my prayers
And now there's colour everywhere
.
You put the red back in the rose
Just when i needed it the most
You came along to show you care
And now there's colour everywhere
Oh yeah...
.
You care and now there's colour everywhere
.
Just as I was singing the last part of the song, I took my plan into action.
-*-"-*-"-*-"-*-"-*-"-*-"-*-"-*-"-*-"-*-"-*-"-*-"-*-"-*-"-*-"-*-"-*-"-*-"-*-"-*-"-*-
The moment I looked at her, eyes widening and face lightening up and smiling, as she gazed up at my surprise for her made me very happy. I secretly took a picture of her.
As I looked down at it, something in the way her eyes reflected the colors of the rainbow, like the universe full of beautiful stars shining down on heaven, made me realize something that I had been denying to myself the whole time.
