So here be it. The last oneshot of this series. Bittersweet, I know(: Lol[: This one is 'Valentine's Day', and please don't kill me, but it's Fabina. I know, I know, it's highly overdone, but who doesn't love a little Fabina fluff every now and then? :3 Let's start!
IMPORTANT: The prom never happened, so this is my take on how they get together {I guess?}
"Spread love everywhere you go: first of all in your own house. Give love to your children, to your wife or husband, to a next door neighbor... Let no one ever come to you without leaving better and happier. Be the living expression of God's kindness; kindness in your face, kindness in your eyes, kindness in your smile, kindness in your warm greeting."
-Mother Theresa
Nina's POV
Today was Valentine's Day. The happiest day of the year. If you're with someone that is. I mean, I was kind of hoping that a certain person would ask me out, but I think he has eyes for another girl. [A/N: She means Joy, because this was slightly after they had the webcam chat thingy with her.]
I got ready for the day then walked downstairs, trying to mask my sadness. I don't know if it worked, because Fabian kept glancing over at me. We looked over at each other at the same time once, and we held gazes for a second. That is, until he looked away all embarrassed. Figures. Like he would actually-
"So," Amber started, "Since today is like, the day of love, I'll be doing some expert matchmaking today." I could have sworn she glanced at Fabian and I when she said this.
"And if any of you-", this time she definitely looked at Fabian, "-need my services, don't be afraid to ask." She flashed one of her Millington smiles and sat down, flipping her hair behind her shoulder.
Fabian coughed, his cheeks red as a tomato, and put his plate in the sink before walking off to his room. Poor guy.
"I'll go check on him." I sighed, giving Amber a slight glare.
"Hey Nina?" Jerome said, just as I was about to walk out the door.
"Yeah?"
"Are you on birth control or do you need a condom?"
"Jerome!" I exclaimed.
Mara whacked him on the arm. I turned and kept walking.
"Oh, taking a risk, are we?" he called after me, "Well don't come crying to me when you get pregna- OW!" he was cut off my Mara smacking him upside the head.
"Thanks Mara." I smiled.
"No problem." She smiled back.
Jerome was still rubbing his arm and head when I walked away.
"Fabian?" I called as I knocked on his door, "Is everything okay?"
"Umm, y-yeah. I'm fine." He stuttered.
"Can I come in?" I asked.
He opened up the door.
"A-actually, I was w-wondering if you, w-would fancy going f-for a w-walk with me?"
"I would love that." I beamed up at him.
He looked relieved.
"Shall we?" he asked.
"We shall!" I laughed as we walked out the front door and into the cold February snow.
It was a good thing I had my mittens and hat in my coat pocket, or else I would freeze out here. I realized that I was still holding onto Fabian's arm, and quickly pulled away, embarrassed.
"So…" I said, trying to start a conversation.
"So…" he replied. We laughed.
"So, is there anyone you've got your eye on? It is Valentine's Day after all." I said without thinking.
I blushed, realizing what I had asked.
"U-um, yeah actually."
My heart sank when he said this. So I was right. He really did love Joy, after all.
"That's kind of why I asked you to go on this walk…"
"Oh. Yeah. I think it's great!" I lied, "She seems really nice!"
"W-what?" he asked, "I don't think-"
"No really! It's a great idea! You should ask her out! Secret dates, her sneaking away from her dad, totally romantic."
"What? Who? Me and-" he sighed, "What I mean is- who do you think I had in mind?"
"Joy. Isn't it obvious? I mean, the way she looks at you-"
"No no no no no." he interrupted, "Joy is like my sister! That would be nasty!"
"Oh," I said, brightening up slightly, "Then who?"
"Nina," he said, stopping under a pine tree, "I like you. A lot. And I was wondering if you would- I mean, if you want to, you don't have to- possibly, maybe, be my girlfriend?" he choked out.
I was ecstatic. He asked me out!
"Yes!" I said, a little too enthusiastically.
"Oh, that's cool, I understa- YES?"
"Yes!" I repeated.
"YES!" he yelled, picking me up and spinning me around in a circle. He was so excited he kissed me. Full. On. The. Lips.
When we broke apart, we were both blushing furiously and looking at our feet. We started walking back to the house, when I thought of something.
"Fabian, well, you know how we were best friends before?"
"Well, yeah, we still are, aren't we?" he asked.
"Yeah, but, I mean, what if we break up, and it was like a fight or something? I don't want to lose our friendship and my boyfriend!"
He stopped again and looked me in the eyes.
"Nina," he said, "I can't promise you a perfect relationship without arguments and difference. However, I can promise, that as long as you're trying, then I'm staying."
[A/N: Quote from anonymous]
I looked up into his eyes and smiled. And I saw something that I never had before with any other guy. Love.
I brought his lips to mine. I felt him smile against the kiss.
"Happy Valentine's Day." I told him as we pulled apart.
"Wrong." He said, "Happiest Valentine's Day."
Aww, so cheesy! Lol[: But seriously, it was alright I guess. This is the last oneshot out of this series, but if you want me to write something else, PM me or tell me in the reviews! So let's not look at this as the end of an era, but the start of a new chapter in the book of life. {Lol why am I so cheesy today?} Bye guys, and thanks so much for reading!
