"my soul, my blood... my heart... it's all yours now. can you feel the way it beats for you? it's all yours now, my elias..."
the red-haired boy said. his heavy breaths, the blood dripping down on the dark green ground... his heart that was beating so rapidly just moments ago, now so silent. still, there's loud heart thumps. belonging to elias. staring at the boy with teary eyes, rapid breaths; with a guilt so loud that even the gods can hear it.
the gods are used to it now.

misu
the morning sun is washing the room with its lights, its still early in the morning.
the dark-brown-eyed boy woke up in sweat, gasping.
he sits up, taking deep breaths to calm his racing heart while reaching for his phone.
the time on his phone shows 6.09am. he doesn't wake up at this time often. though when he does, it's always this same time...
his eyes flick down to his notifications. tons of them... all from ake. he stayed up playing games all night again. and of course, sent tons of photos and videos of his gameplay. he'd gone to bed... an hour ago? probably.
misu sighs and puts his phone down, staring at the ceiling. the dream... no, he won't bother thinking about it. he's not the type to do.
he decides to sleep for a bit longer before starting his work for the day.
9am.
misu's phone buzzes with notifications, probably from ake.
he puts his tablet pen down to take his phone in his hand.
ake : misuu misuuu - 8.49
ake : miss uuu>.< - 8.49
ake : my aextect boii - 8.50
ake : *architect - 8.50
ake : tung tung whos there sahurAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAH

"what the hell..."
misu mumbled to himself

misu : an adult btw - 9.02
misu : busy with a project rn, i'll call you later. - 9.02
i still have to focus on this proje-
ake : i'm coming over<3

misu : when did i tell u to
not even asking me anymore... i mean, it's only normal i guess? we've been close friends for years now after all.
misu : don't take too long
misu : <4
knowing him, it'll probably take a few minutes anyway...

ake
"what do i wear now... hmmm..."
ake thought to himself even knowing that he'll probably put on anything that he sees first.
after getting ready, he put his laptop in his bag and packed some home-made food before leaving his house.
if he's that stubborn to not take care of himself, then i'm this stubborn to take care of him myself.
9.55
not too long time later, he knocks on misu's door.
"open uuuup~"
when he had opened the door a minute later, he was greeted with three plastic bags and ake.
"what are thos-"
before he could finish his sentence, ake jumped to hug him annoyingly tight, even with knowing misu doesn't like physical touch at all.
"heyaa~"
ake said
"haven't had a breakfast yet, right? let's eat together. i prepared us a lot of things"
ake pulls back and walks toward his kitchen like he owns the place.
ake's in the kitchen, busy with the microwave now. it's peaceful when it's just the two of them.... and...
"you know... you won't believe what my neighbour asked me yesterday..."
misu started
"hmm, what did they ask?"
"she asked if me and 'that one blond boy who keeps coming here' are dating or something"
"hmm~ and what did you say?"
ake smiled but he won't keep his hopes high
"of course i said no, silly. though, she's quite pretty tho, y'know? i mean, i wouldn't date her but she's very close to my type."
...and no one else.
"oh."
ake's smile didn't vanish at all
"are you planning on talking to her more often? maybe try getting her number sometime?"
i would never want this. why am i suggesting this in the first place... ain't i just too complicated? if he knew i looked at him in this way.. no, he won't. he wouldn't give me a chance to finally make it obvious too after all.
"i don't know. i'm not planning to, to be honest."
"mm."
ake hummed in approval
"what about me? am i your type too~?"
he said jokingly, or did he?
he'll probably just lie. i wouldn't know the truth unless i am in his mind.
"yeah, you totally are"
ake's eyes lighten up a bit, looking at him expectedanly. sometimes the heart is stronger than the brain huh.
"if you were a girl, i'd date you for sure."
there...
"..."
ake's still smiling. of course he'd say that.
"do i have to be a girl~? i thought you were interested in boys too, no?"
"uhh... yeah, sometimes. it's a bit complicated. and also, i think you were my... awakening..?"
...then what's the thing that's keeping you there? ,ake thought to himself
"of course i was~"
ake said. because honestly, what else could he say in this situation?
after a while, they decided to work, together like they do sometimes. misu is drawing the project he was assigned with and ake is busy with some translation job.
still, ake sometimes stops for a second to glance at misu. misu doesn't bother with that. ake smiles to himself and continues working.
i'm so sure that he is my soulmate. i know he is. in every universe if they exist. but... are soulmates supposed give you the feeling of... whatever is this... emptiness? sorrow? but also this deep sense of comfort...
ake thought to himself
"...Gender is a scam made up by bathroom companies to sell more bathrooms, by the way."
"...what?"
just another hangout like always. not boring, it was actually fun and peaceful. it was just... no, it was fun. they're bestfriends getting along quite well after all, it has to be fun, right?
whatever, the day is over.

"do you ever wish to get your happy ending, elias? always ending up like this, then praying until your throat starts to bleed. nobody is going to take care of your back like this. not like him, not like adonis."
the divine existence said slowly, staring at the boy, watching blood dripping down from his mouth while he's screaming with prays. he's already gone crazy, didn't he?
"you have quite pathetic endings. this is just another one of them. get used to it, elias. only if you last long."

The sun will rise again. The calendar will show the Fifth of August again, countless times. The clock will strike 12am again.
But the numbers in our ages won't stay the same for a long time. The memories we share right now won't repeat themselves again. But they'll find a way to repeat themselves again. The memories that seems distant but actually way too close to you will always be here, just hidden beneath every moment you'd stop and want to feel the nostalgia it gives to you. But while you're busy feeling that nostalgia, don't forget to focus on the present time that'll add more nostalgia to your garden. In your garden, i'm happy to be a 3 year old tulip there and i'll be glad to add a few 0's to the end. 30,300,3000... Your dreams and wishes will come true. If it's you, i know you are going to achieve any kind of goal you want to achieve. Go Big or Go Home except i'll still be with you wherever you go. I'm so proud of u :3
Happy Birthday, my dearest Elio
