Author ("Angel" from now on): So this is the last chapter! I'm REALLY sorry for the long, long wait, but I was on vacation. After all, it's summer! ;D Thanks to everyone who reviewed and read my story!

Chapter 11:

"Oh my GOSH, what are you doing?"

I swiped my hands in front of him to try to get him away. What was this blue-haired guy trying to do kissing me? I, Princess Aiko of the Crystal Realm, am not an easy character to defeat!

The guy looked surprised and tentatively touched his cheek where I accidentally slapped him. Well, his fault for trying to kiss me when I already have the perfect boyfriend ever, Kin!

Kin… "*Gasp* Kin!" Everything suddenly rushed back into my head like a waterfall just released from a wall of stones. What have I done? The guy in front of me is Shade, Fine was somehow carried here by my brother, I said I wanted Shade as my boyfriend, and Kin…ohmygosh. Oh no, oh no, oh no, Kin must be heartbroken! I have to find him immediately!

~Shade's POV~

Before she pushed me away, I noticed some sparks raining down on her. I don't know what happened, but she apparently doesn't like me anymore. And she just cried "Kin!" Wait, does that mean she remembers him now? That's perfect!

"You remember him now? Kin, I mean," I asked her.

She looked up at me with big, clear eyes and nodded eagerly.

"Then what are you waiting for? The mirror is in Fine's room. I saw Kin in the Image Dimension on my way here!"

She shrieked and ran out of the room.

"Fine!" She screamed.

What? I tell her where her boyfriend is and all she says is "fine" and runs out of the room like I forced her to go look for him? …Uh oh…Fine! Man, I completely forgot about her! I followed Aiko, but boy, can she run fast! I guess she really does like Kin after all.

Fine's door was open. As I entered, I saw Aiko disappearing through the mirror. Then I looked around for her. I don't know why I was so worried. After all, it's not like she saw my attempt to kiss Aiko, right?

I noticed sheets from her bed were gone. Looking toward the window, my suspicions were confirmed. She climbed out the window! That's just what she would do. If I hurry now, I could still catch her.

I grabbed hold of the sheets she tied together and climbed out. There she was! I spotted her running across the snow toward the Dome! Hopping right down from the window onto the ground, I chased after her.

I caught her arm and spun her around to face me…and then let go. Her face was tear-streaked. What happened to her?

~Fine's POV~

Shade was staring at my face. I tried to wipe the remaining tears away but he caught my hand first.

"What happened to you?"

"You kissing Aiko happened, that's what!" I shouted at him. Wow. I'd never thought I'd yell at Shade. I've yelled at Rein and at Pyu Pyu, but I've never yelled at Shade before.

He seemed confused for some reason. Like he didn't hear me. That's just like him. I muster up all my courage to say the one thing that's bothering me, and he doesn't even have the decency to listen.

"I said, you kissing Ai—"

Then Shade kissed me.

I don't know how it happened. All I knew was that my eyes widened to the circumference of a plate.

Okay, I know Rein told me that you should always enjoy your first kiss as much as you can, but I couldn't help it: I pushed him away.

I covered my mouth with my hand and stared hard at him. I was angry. Very, very angry. How dare he kiss me right after he kissed Aiko?

"How dare you kiss me right after you kissed Aiko?" I screamed at him. No matter how hard I tried not to, I just couldn't stop crying a little because of the injustice of the whole thing.

"I didn't kiss Aiko!" He said.

What? I stared at him some more before I regained my senses.

"But…how…I saw you two—and…" Great. I've turned into a blubbering fool again.

"I didn't kiss Aiko," He repeated, "because there were some strange sparks that rained down on her and she pushed me away."

I sighed inwardly. I was so relieved they didn't kiss yet, but I wasn't letting him off easy for breaking my heart. I almost touched my lips again, but I grabbed my hand and clasped it behind my back with the other.

"You still like Aiko, though." I silently dared him to admit it.

A look of understanding seemed to pass his face.

"No, I don't like Aiko! The only reason why I tried to kiss her was because she and Kin were under a spell, and Kin asked me to break it for them…" Shade studied my face for a minute before he continued. "It was the only way."

I have to say here that I was extremely, extremely happy to hear this. Shade didn't like Aiko! He didn't kiss her either! I could have fainted right now, especially since the enormous sigh of relief was swelling in my chest with no way of getting out. Sure I was glad for myself, but I wasn't going to forgive him. No matter what.

Shade was waiting for my reply.

"Oh. Great. Let's go back to the Wonder Planet now." I turned away from him and started walking away.

"Fine, wait." He grabbed my arm again.

I sighed like I was seriously annoyed and slowly turned back around. "Yes?"

Was that a blush I saw on Shade's face?

"Fine, you have to know…the person I like is you."

I didn't expect this. At all. But Shade pulled me into a hug and whispered into my ear, "I like you, Fine, and I hope you feel the same way about me."

My face was burning a degree too hot for comfort. You know when I said I would never forgive him? Maybe just this once…And you know what? I've found out that Shade can be romantic when he wants to.

"I like you, too." Did I just say that?

Shade released me and looked at me. "Then let's go home."

Smiling shyly, I nodded and followed him, led by the hand all the way back to the Wonder Planet.

Epilogue:

Universal: Crystal Realm

Dear Fine,

This is a special letter that travels all over the universe until it reaches the person it's intended for.

First of all, I want to say that I don't mind. Nobody can help who they fall in love with, so stay with Shade and don't worry about me. I believe that I'll also find my soul mate soon, too. ;D

Second of all, thank you for all the happiness you've given me. I really liked the time we spent together. By the way, the marriage is cancelled. Well, our marriage is cancelled. I wouldn't say so much about Aiko and Kin's…although, they still have a long way to go before they can officially get married, with politics and all that stuff. Still, you know they'll get through it in the end.

When that time comes, Aiko will send you an invitation to their wedding! You can bring as many people as you like. (That would be the wedding of her dreams; she's such a romantic.)

Well, I hope you have a great time anywhere you go!

Best Wishes,

Aki

"Shade, Shade! Look! It's a letter from Aki! Aiko and Kin are getting married!"

Shade read the letter and smiled. "When did you get this?"

"This morning, when I was on the way to school," I answered.

He was silent for a while. Then he asked, "Do you believe in miracles?"

I leaned against his shoulder and said, "Of course."

Angel: Hey there! Aiko and Kin are getting married! Send them all your best wishes! I really don't know if this ending is good or bad, but enjoy! I know it's kind of rushed, but I've tried my best! Please review! Thanks for all your support! Look forward to Angelwings!
