Hello, everyone :)

This is, really, the LAST chapter xD

I just wanted to add some closure to this story. I'm sure you all wanted to know how their ending continues :D But this chapter is a bit different from the rest. It's told in a third person point-of-view instead of Rin's or Len's view. It adds...a specialness xD But this chapter was also written with the advice of readers, which I will thank at the end of this chapter.

Epilogue

It's been two months since Minami Len enrolled in Rin's high school. It came as quite a shock to her. It was only natural since he had left leaving behind a note with an apology written on it. Rin was devasted.

But that didn't mean that Len wasn't.

Len had no memories whatsoever of the life he had before Rin. But to him, the life with Rin made up for everything he had lost. But he was slowly gaining back memories. Len felt out of place as he went back to his band. But he had to finish it properly and move one. He did it so he could return to Rin's side. The place he truly belonged.

"I love you."

Len couldn't help but grin at the expression on Rin's face, a mixture of embarassment and shock. Everything was natural with her.

Rin helped Len get used to being school. And to his surprise, he was actually quite smart. Len met Miku, Rin's best friend. She glared at him the first few times they met. In her mind, Len was the boy who'd hurt Rin. But later, he was forgiven.

Being Rin's room mate was easy to get used to. He had done it before but this time, it was official. Len felt guilty with only taking up space and eating her food.

"It's fine," Rin mumbled while eating her bento in the classroom across from Len. He was eating a bento she had made, "Remember I said my dad left me? Well, he sends me lots of money. I always have leftover. It's enough for us to live on. Until I get a job..."

Len furrowed his eyes brows and then jumped up in his seat, "That's it! I can get a job!"

Rin dropped what she held on her chopsticks, "Eh...?"

That's how Minami Len ended up with a part-time job in a bookstore. It was small and the shelves were cramped with books. He sat behind the desk everyday looking over different books and once, he had found an old photo of his band. They posed on a staircase, he found himself sitting at the bottom while Kaito and Gumi stood, he looked straight into the camera with a frown. Len smiled nostalgically.

But over his time in the bookstore he picked up cooking skills by reading recipes and brough them home.

He jogged over to their apartment with a grin. Rin was at the sink washing dishes, getting ready to prepare dinner.

She turned and smiled, "Oh, Len, you're home. I was-"

He stepped over behind her and wrapped his arms around her waist and buried his nose in the curve of her nape. Rin blushed, even though they were a couple, they rarely touched. Len was too nervous to do anything and treated her delicately.

"Can I cook?" He murmured.

"H-huh?"

He let her go and grinned as she turned to face him, "I got this new recipe." he pulled out a piece of notebook paper where he had copied the recipe.

Rin looked at him confused, "O-okay. Go ahead."

Len smiled, "Thanks."

He leaned in and brushed his lips softly over hers. Everything he did surprised her.

That night, they both found out that Len was a better cook than Rin. Len chuckled at the pout that took over Rin's face. Len had it all: the looks, the smarts and now, the skills.

A few days after Len had returned he had found Rin hanging up paper cranes on the ceiling above Len's bed. He smiled softly at himself as she stood on tip toes to reach. Her eyes were focused, nothing stopped her when she wanted to do something. The colorful cranes slipped from her hands and fell. Rin let out a sigh.

Len stepped over to pick them out and held them out to her, "Here."

She took them from his hand, "Thanks. I thought you're room will look nice if you had some."

"Yeah. Your room already looks like a museum." He glanced around his room. It was still pretty empty.

(Though, when he started working at the bookstore. He brought back books with him. They sat in piles on the floor in his room.)

She stuck the last string of cranes on the ceiling and plopped down on his bed. Len sat beside her and pulled her closer, both of them fell over the comforter. Rin laughed and Len held her close with his arms around her waist.

He kissed her forehead, her cheek, her nose and finally, her lips.

"How many cranes do you have now?" he asked softly.

She smiled, "One thousand."

His eyes widened, "Really! That's great, now you can get your wish."

She smiled to herself as she snuggled closer into his chest. His heart was fluttering like a bird.

"I made my wish already."

"What was it?"

"...It came true already. But it's a secret."

The day after Len had left, Rin sat on his bed holding the note he had left.

I'm sorry, Rin. It was frustration to think what he meant. "I'm sorry,Rin, but I don't love you" or "I'm sorry, Rin, living with you is boring. I want to be a rockstar." She shook those thoughts out of her head. And instead she thought of her mother, during her last days

"If you fold one thousand of these paper cranes, you get a wish. Rin, don't you have anything you want to wsh for?" He mother had said.

"Yes...Mom, I do have something to wish for." She said silently into the air.

She took the note and folded it. A fold here, a crease here, another fold, she let images of Len run through her mind and with a blurry vision, she finished folding it.

"One thousand paper cranes," She said and closed her eyes.

Something to wish for.

As Len held her, on his bed, she thought of the wrinkly, small crane sitting on her night stand. The note from Len. The last paper crane. And she let her eyes close. Len was already taking in small, deep breaths, he had already fallen asleep.

My wish, she thought as Len's forehead came to rest against hers , came true.
