Chapter 10
The next night Chung call me out again and we went to a flower garden this time. I sigh, "this place is nice" I smiled.
"Y-yea!" Chung said nervously. We stay at the garden a little while before Chung asks me a question. "Umm Eve, what is your relationship with Elsword?"
I blushed and look the other way, "hmmm... We are just close friends" I say hiding my smile and red face.
"Eve, turn around" I twirl around and face Chung and unexpectedly I widen my eyes as Chung lean in and kissed me. He back away a little after a quick kiss and look at me. "Eve I love you please marry me"
Unknowingly I push him away from me and felt tears on my cheek. "I'm sorry Chung I don't feel the same way."
He looks down "O-okay, but can we still stay friends?" I give him a nod. After that night I spend all my time beside Elsword. One night I sit next to Elsword on the bed.
"Elsword. I have something to tell you"
He looks at me. "What is it, Eve?" After a long while of explaining the whole traveling back in time thing he smiled. "So, I die protecting you"
"Y-yes.." I look down. "The mission is tomorrow night, so whatever happens please don't protect me, o-or you'll be.." Tears start to form as I continue. Elsword suddenly hugs me I look at him.
"Eve, I said this before, no matter what I'll be there for you" I start sobbing and hug him tightly as he gently stroke my head. After a while, I stop crying, "I'm sorry Eve, you been through a lot."
"S-sniff, it's all worth it," I said smiling. After that, we went to bed together
"E-Eve y-you's so close to me," Elsword said clearly blushing in the dark.
"I-is that a problem..?" I said as I snuggle closer to him and smell his scent.
Elsword pov
After a while, I finally muster the courage to ask. "W-why are you doing this Eve?" Then I hear her sound asleep, I smiled a little. I turn around and face her. I couldn't help myself and I hug her and fall into slumber. For an instant I heard her say "I love you" but it was faint. The next day, I'll ask Add to destroy the time machine. Changing the past and the future can cause a lot of problems... I'll protect Eve, even if it means dying and leaving her side for eternity.
Eve pov
I woke up and found Elsword wrapping his arms around me. I blush and feel safe that he is here. I screeched when I found out that Elsword is squeezing my butt cheek. I clenched his shirt harder as I felt his hands going deeper. After a while of awkwardness, I woke him up to have breakfast after cleaning up the mess.
"Everyone we have an important mission tonight!"
I look up at Rena explaining the Wally castle mission. I pray to myself that this time it went well. At the ball, I sit with Elsword and talk about our future. "Eve have you ever thought of marriage?"
I look at Elsword and reply "why you ask?"
He blushed and nervously said, "Well since you are a Nasod I wonder if they ever think about having a relationship, having no emotions and all."
I giggle at the silly question, "well, it is weird for Nasod to gain emotions like me and I never truly thought about the far future, I'm sure that the future holds a lot of challenges."
"Well Eve, I'll be here with you to face them, and who knows maybe I'll get a girlfriend while I am at it, am I right?" We laugh. "Oh look Aisha is dancing with Chung!" I look over at where Elsword is pointing and saw them together. I guess Chung have found someone else, I giggled.
Elsword stood up in front of me and bows, "Would you have a dance with me, my lady?" He said smiling.
I take his hand and smiled back. "I would love to" We dance to the music smiling at each other. I'm so happy that I could have this time with Elsword again. As the music stops we look at each other smiling, he closes his eyes and leans in and I close my eyes too, we kissed before the castle wall gets destroyed. We smile at each other
"Let's do this Eve!" He said smirking
"Yes, Elsword!" I reply back with a smile. We will get through this together.
