Chapter 15: Memories
"Come on! Come on!" Kevin panted as he did CPR on Lavanya. When Kevin saw Lavanya fell off the cliff into the ocean he dove in after her and brought her to shore.
"Don't you dare die on me! Don't you dare, Lavanya!" Kevin said as he did mouth-to-mouth resuscitation.
"Come on, Lavanya... Don't do this..." Kevin said as he had a grave look. He then did mouth-to-mouth one last time before he felt Lavanya moved and suddenly started coughing. Lavanya started shivering then Kevin hugged her.
"Kevin...?"
"You idiot! You almost gave me a freaking heart attack!" Kevin yelled at Lavanya then the blonde girl covered her ears. Kevin was so mad he wanted to keep yelling at Lavanya but seeing her shaking he sighed.
"Never mind... Let's get you back home..." He said as he lifted Lavanya and carried her back home.
Inside Lavanya's house Kevin was in the kitchen making tea while Lavanya was sitting on the couch with a blanket wrapped around her. He walked towards the couch and Lavanya looked up at him.
"Here, you still like to drink tea, right...?" Kevin asked as he held a mug out to Lavanya. Lavanya nodded and took the mug. She blew on it to cool it down a bit before taking a sip. Kevin sat down next to her and watched her drink the tea before she set the mug to the side.
"You haven't been sleep walking for quite some time..." Kevin said then Lavanya nodded looking down.
"You... You use to be so nice to me, Kevin... Then one day you just snapped and got angry at me... For no reason..." Lavanya said then she wiped her eyes as tears fell. Kevin looked at the blonde hair girl then sighed softly.
"Look... I didn't mean to do all those to you..."
"But you still did it anyway..." Lavanya said resting her chin on her knees.
"Lavanya... It's just... Back in Empire City... When we started dating... You became more popular and became even more busier with all your singing and plays... I... I was jealous..." Kevin admitted with a sigh. Lavanya looked at Kevin then he pulled the silver key necklace out of his shirt.
"You kept it...?" Lavanya asked then Kevin put the necklace back into his shirt and smiled.
"I never really got rid of it... Like I said I did when you broke up with me." He said then Lavanya blushed looking down.
"Lavanya, come back with me to Empire City. Don't you miss the good times we had together; dancing at the club? Listening to jazz music? The city lights?"
"It was like living in a fairy tale... Sadly though, all fairy tales must come to an end, Kevin... And you were the one who wrote the end to my story..." Lavanya said looking away.
"But I can make it up to you, babe! I have all the money in the world! Tell me what you want- -I'll give it to you!" Kevin said using his hand to turn Lavanya to make her look at him. He had this desperate anxious look on his face; like he was afraid of something. Lavanya touched Kevin's cheek making him flinch a bit but he didn't take his eyes off her.
"No amount of money in the world can ever repair the damage you caused..." She said then she slowly stood up and went to her room. She closed the door and looked at desk. There on the desk was a jewelry box and when Lavanya opened it she pulled out a silver heart shaped key necklace that looks just like the one Kevin had. Holding it in her hands she sighed softly.
"Kevin look! Aren't these just beautiful?" Lavanya asked as she and Kevin were in a jewelry store. Kevin looked at the objects that Lavanya was pointing at and it was a heart shaped key necklace.
"Eh, it's alright..." Kevin answered looking to the side then Lavanya pouted looking at him.
"Come on, Kevin. These are so pretty! And they even come in pairs for couples!" Lavanya said trying to get Kevin to pay attention to her.
"Yeah, but why silver? Isn't gold better...?" Kevin asked then Lavanya smiled.
"Yeah. True gold it better... But... Silver suits you better." She said then Kevin had a confused look.
"'Silver suits me better'? Babe, please- -Only gold will always suit someone like me!" Kevin said then Lavanya tapped his shoulder. The moment Kevin turned Lavanya put the necklace around his neck and once it was securely locked she kissed Kevin and smiled sweetly.
"Silver brings out your eyes though..." She said then Kevin looked to see her wearing the necklace. He smiled at her then gave her a soft peck on the lips.
Lavanya held onto the necklace then she placed it on her desk before she went to bed. Kevin looked at his necklace and gently gripped it before he laid on the couch and decided to sleep.
