~*Epilogue*~

Rin's POV

"RINNY!"

Three years passed since the last time I saw Len. Even if I miss him a lot, I have to move on. I kept my vow to keep cleaning the mirror, hoping to be able to see him appear once again, but there seemed to be no hope for me.

I turned around to see my friend Lenka and Rui running towards me. They helped me out on my first day back to school after the long-lasting war had ended granted by Len.

Rui Kagashi was the first girl I had met on the first day. She introduced me to Lenka Kagami after she protected me from the bullies who had teased me about the loss of my family. Surprisingly, Lenka and Rui knew about my family history, yet, they didn't tease me but get over it. They were a bit shocked that I was able to walk after they heard my introduction, but they still treated me like a family.

They helped me and encouraged me to become Class President, which I am now. Lenka became the Vice Class President, while Rui became the Assistant. With them by my side each time, I would continue to feel less lonely than those times before.

Rui had a strong resemblance to my brother, Rei and Lenka had a very similar appearance to Len. That was another reason I was able to bond with them a little bit more quickly.

Even if I had moved on, I still kept wishing for that one day to see Len once again. It was and still will be my dream to be able to be with him. It's ok to keep some hope up, right?

"Hi, Rui! Hey, Lenka!" I called to them.

When they reached my side, Lenka questioned, "So, Class President, you had been getting lots of love letters, yet, you won't accept any of their affections?"

I must say that I was actually getting lots of love letters. Though, I would just kindly reject their affections. It just felt like my heart belonged to someone else; that someone who I can't see any time soon. Most of the letters would explain how kind and pretty I was, but I just knew I was kind just because of that one person who changed my life.

"Oh", I replied brushing a strand of hair behind my ear while looking down at the floor.

"Probably, she has someone already on her mind", Rui announced.

With that said, I felt a blush creep onto my cheeks, which didn't went unnoticed by Lenka.

"So, that's the reason you've been rejecting those letters!" Lenka exclaimed, with her eyes widening in realization.

I just continued walking ahead of them towards my locker to drop of my items, leaving them behind. A sigh had escaped my lips. Still, Len was the one who occupied my mind in this affection called love. Whenever the topic about love was brought up, he would be the first one in my mind.

I just can't help but think that we are two opposites in a universe as he said. Does that mean if I love him, he would hate me? Now that I'm happy, he would be sad? I don't understand the meaning about us being complete opposites.

I locked my locker, with my textbooks and bag in hand. Just when can I move on from these feelings towards him? He does mean everything to me, but I know it's just impossible now to even see him.

Walking outside the doorway of the school, I glanced up at the sky and whispered, "Do you still remember me?"

Just a gust of cold wind blew my hair to the side as a reply. Dropping my gaze from the sky, I can't help but feel worried about the thought of him forgetting me.

Sitting down at a bench nearby, I decided to wait for my two friends to come out. They were cleaning the band room, which I insisted to help, but they refused since I done too much work already.

I felt two pairs of hands cover my view of the ground beneath me. The only person that does that to me was no other than someone who is quite dear to me.

I small grin was planted on my face when I answered, "Rinto Nanami, I know that's you"

Chuckling was heard from behind me. I turned to look and the person I had guessed was there. His blonde hair that was pinned with two black pins reflected the sunlight above.

I had met Rinto since my childhood, but I stopped seeing him after his parents brought up the news on my family. I wasn't able to walk back then, so Rinto visited time to time, but I was too depressed that I also ignored his presence at times.

I had introduced Lenka and Rinto after an encounter a week after I met Lenka. I could tell that they had been struck by love at first sight. They were my close friends, so they told me about their little secret that the other didn't know. Rui helped me to get them together at one point, so their actually dating now.

"You always guess right, you know?" Rinto complained.

"We have known each other long enough to guess things right", I stated.

Rinto just hung his head down low in shame of forgetting. I just patted his head playfully, showing I was just kidding even if it was true.

Rinto raised his head after he remembered something, "Rin, where's Lenka?"

I just pointed back at the school and answered, "She's cleaning the band room, with Rui"

He nodded his head and sat next to me on the bench.

"I wasn't able to thank you and Rui for setting Lenka and I up…" he told me.

I just responded that it was alright. A long silence between us grew, with only the sound of birds chirping and the wind blowing the only thing audible to hear.

"Do you have a certain guy on mind?" Rinto asked, glancing at me.

This topic once again was brought up today. That same blush appeared on my cheeks again.

"I'll take that as a yes", he confirmed, "I wonder who the lucky guy is, anyways… I hadn't heard you accept anyone's feelings"

I glanced up at the sky and let out a sigh, "I'm not sure if I'll ever meet him again, though"

Rinto smiled at me and replied, "Don't give up hope! Your wishes will be granted if you still believe, you know?"

Len was the reason my wishes were granted, but I don't know if this wish will ever come true. He's someone on the other side of the mirror.

"I-I'll try…" I responded.

Rinto got up, "Well, I have to go now! I'll check on Lenka"

With that, he left towards the band room inside the school.

"If it's true that I should believe, then I will", I told myself in particular.

After a while of sitting on the bench, I decided to go home. I got up and started heading to my destination.

The sky has turned into an orange and yellow colour, which I now identified the time was sunset.

Did it take that long for me to think?

I just left the idea and started searching for my keys in my pocket. When I finally felt its metal surface I bumped into someone, causing me to drop my books and my key.

My body fell down and reached contact with the cement floor below me. I pushed my weight up with one of my arms and rubbed my back with the other. I just got onto my knees and began picking up my books.

"I-I am so sorry, Miss!" the person said.

The voice sounded quite familiar to someone I met before, but I must just be mistaken. Sometimes, other's voices can match with someone in particular.

When I was about to grab my last book, I felt a hand touch mine. The same kindness and warmth emitted from it like Len's hands…

I looked up immediately from our intertwined hands with huge eyes. There, standing in front of me was the boy I never thought I would ever see again. His eyes filled with joy to see me once again.

"L-Len…?" my voice came out as a soft whisper, but still filled with shock.

"It's nice to see you again, my dear princess", he exclaimed with a smile now forming on his face.

I just knelt there, staring at the boy in front of me, dumfounded when I felt tears trickling down my cheeks. I got up, dropping my books, and hugged him, my arms wrapping around his figure.

At first, he seemed to be shocked at my sudden action, but then he wrapped his arms around me, tears also falling from his eyes. I felt his breath on my hair, after he rested his chin on my head.

After we broke the embrace, I still had a thought lingering in my mind, "Len, how did you get here?"

He averted his gaze from me and rubbed the back of his neck, "It took a bit of sacrifice, but I was able to manage…"

I tilted my head in confusion, "You didn't have to sacrifice anything important, right?"

"J-Just my powers", he replied simply.

My eyes widened. His powers should have meant everything to him!

Noticing my shocked expression, he chuckled, "My powers didn't mean that much… You live in a human world, plus, those powers were my curse from the start"

"I… don't… get you…"

He let out a sigh, "They would prevent me from being with you. Remember I said we're complete opposites?"

I nodded my head, still not getting where this was going.

"Those powers had that bond between us. Now, we're free from the universe of being opposites"

A smile grew on his face, causing me to blush a bit.

"You know… I missed you, my princess", he said, his voice softened a bit.

"I did, too"

He picked up my materials and gave them back to me. I replied with a simple thank you and he offered to walk me home.

"I see that your life has changed, hasn't it?" he asked.

I just nodded my head a bit, feeling a bit awkward from the silence, so I gripped the books in my hand a bit tighter. Closing my eyes, I felt my left hand being loosened from my grip.

That same warmth I had felt from long ago was lingering on my fingertips and I decided to check what it was. My eyes trailed down towards my left hand, which was again intertwined with another hand.

"Rin…" I looked up to see Len's face, with a tint of pink on it, facing me.

When he knew he had gotten my attention, he continued, "Well… Th-These past years, I noticed how much I missed you and… umm… y-your smiles… and… most of all, being with you. This feeling kept making me feel funny in the inside and I want to tell you that…"

I felt his grip on my hand, tighten and his face turning into a deep scarlet shade.

"That…?"

"Th-that… I-I… l-love you…" he finished, his face turning the other direction.

I felt my heart leap when he said those three words and my cheeks started to burn, but a smile was planted on my face.

"I-I love you, too, Len", I responded, causing him to whip his head towards my direction a confused look on his face.

"C-Can you repeat what you said?" he asked, his face seemed to want to explode from all the blood rushing to it.

"I love you, Len", I repeated.

He brought me back to an embrace, which I caught by surprise.

"Thank you, Rin. You mean everything to me…" he whispered.

I smiled and returned his embrace.

I never knew that if you believed in your dreams, they would come true. Dreams can only come true if you put your heart and mind to it. You have to do it to make it come true or just simply believe you can make it come true. Just follow your dreams.

A/N: Gosh, this killed me from the love.
Don't kill me because I'm a killjoy! This is just the first time I typed up a happy, love ending!
I-I'm so sorry for making the ending a bit cheesy... I'm not a professional with romance and I'm trying to get used to it! I'm so sorry!
Ehehehehe... Thanks to Catatonic Inspiration for telling me I should do an Epilogue. I'm sorry I hadn't updated it sooner or later!
Well, I hope you guys liked it even if my romance is quite cheesey and that this was shorter than the other two...
Please review!
