Let's Discuss Our Lives In A Serious Fashion
A Fangirl's Dream*Brianna’s POV*
My eyes fluttered open and I found myself looking up at Key’s face. I shivered; my body felt unnaturally cold. Suddenly I realized I was in water, and I remembered where I was.
“Key, what happened?” I asked. “I remember you saying something about our futures and then everything went black.”
“Um, let’s go back to shore and we’ll talk,” he said awkwardly, which was not like Key at all.
“Okay…”
We swam back to shore in silence. I tried to remember what had happened because I knew from the atmosphere that it had been important, but Key might not be willing to discuss it again.
What had Key said that made me pass out? It was something about family… I think? Well he said something about me being young and- oh! He said he wanted to settle down with me. Wait… family… settle down…
We had just reached shore when it finally ALL hit me.
“Oh my gosh Key!” I stopped walking and stared at him in shock.
“I guess you remember now, huh?” he asked, stopping next to me but not looking at my face.
“Key,” I whispered, slipping my hand in his. “I’m sorry but… I can’t tell you that I want to marry you. I mean, yes if I could make that decision now I would, but I haven’t even begun to explore the world yet. I need to find out who I am. I want to go to college and become a nurse; a good nurse! That might lead me down other roads. There are so many things I haven’t experienced that could affect that kind of decision… it would change a lot of things.”
“Don’t be sorry,” he said, still not looking at me. I heard a sniffle come from him which tore at my heart. “I’m the one that should be apologizing.” He finally turned to look me in the eyes. “It was selfish of me to ask such a thing of you, especially now. I mean for goodness sakes you’re only eighteen! I’m just… afraid.”
“Afraid of what?” I asked. What the heck could this boy be afraid of? He was Almighty Key for goodness sakes!
“I’m afraid of losing you. Just the thought of us growing apart and you meeting someone new… I don’t think I could handle that. I want to be able to wake up every morning knowing that you are mine and always will be no matter what.”
“Kibum,” I placed a gentle hand on his cheek. “I don’t want to lose you either. It’s just that I don’t know if I can commit to something so serious right now. Maybe someday when I’m out of college and living on my own we’ll be able to discuss this again… on happier terms.”
“I understand; you need your time. I guess we BOTH still have some growing and searching to do. But, no matter where we go or what roads our lives lead us down, you’ll always be the reason for the beating in my heart.”
I embraced him in a tight hug, taking in every moment as a treasure. Memories from the last three months flooded my mind as his warm, wet body pressed against mine. I was going to miss his touch, his laugh, his smile, his voice -everything- so much.
“I hope you’re at the end of my road Key.”
“Of course I’ll be there; waiting faithfully for you.”
We stood on the beach, hugging as if we’d never let go and had become the same person. In my heart it felt like that’s what we really were; one person. He whispered the most precious things in my ear while giving me little kisses on my cheeks, forehead and nose.
“Now how about we go get something to eat? That seafood place we passed on the way here looked pretty nice,” Key suggested, pulling away.
“Captain Crab’s?” I asked humorously as I recalled the little eatery’s lame attempt at a name.
“Why not? Then we’ll have something to laugh about on the ride home!”
I grabbed his arm and we began walking toward the empty parking lot where our car sat all alone.
“Alright Key… Key… Keywi! Haha, Kiwi! What would you do if I called you…” My voice faded out when he stopped and I saw the look on his face. “You won’t like that huh?” I asked his hard expression before looking down at the ground.
“Not from anyone but you… Banana!”
I looked up to see him laughing, instantly making me smile.
“We are so silly,” I laughed along with him as we walked the rest of the way to the car.
We joked around, enjoying ourselves on the ride to the eatery and during our meal. Though these were ending times for us, I was glad we were having so much fun. It’d be a wonderful memory to look back on. Though it was would bejust a memory…
