Time: January 1, 2017 

When entering a new year, most make a vow to better themselves for the future of the year. When the clock hit midnight last night, I made a  vow to myself that I would keep Yuzuru and the boys safe. No matter what. I made that decisions days ago, months ago really. I sealed the deal with myself at midnight when the clock hit 12 a.m and I pressed my lips to Yuzuru's. This was a fight between Romano and me and I'm not willing to get Yuzu in between the crossfire 

As I woke up this morning, I couldn't help but think things were a bit out of place. Like someone was here, the night before

"Mmmm" I groan peeking my head out from out under the covers

The curtains were still drawn so only a little bit of light was peeking through from under the cracks 

Yuzuru was still sound asleep beside me, his slender arms still wrapped around waist.For the past few nights after Christmas, Yuzu's been a bit distraught so I've been staying with him at night. I can't help but listen closely and hear his soft snoring. The way he wrinkled his nose ever so slightly and the way his lips parted made me smile a little. With everything I've been through, I'm glad he suck around to keep me safe and show me what love feels like

I turn my head from facing Yuzuru's and my eyes meet something sitting on my night table, the baby blue packaging catching my eyes immediately 

"Fuck" I whisper reaching my right hand forward to pick it up 

"Mmm? Charlie-chan? What are you doing?" Yuzu asks wiping the sleep from his eyes and looking over my shoulder 

I quickly shove the small box under the covers hoping his didn't see it

He's been sleeping less and less for the past few nights and it's been worrying me

I don't need him to stress out over another gift from Romano, so it might be better to hide this one from him 

"Charlie-chan, please? You're not doing me any good by hiding it" he says wrapping his arms around me tighter and planting his chin on on shoulder

"Are..are you sure?" I ask him 

"I'm sure Charlotte-chan" he says with a shaky voice 

My right hand shakily pulls the lid of the box off 

Inside lies a velvet navy blue box 

A box in a box can never be a good sign....

I pull the velvet box out and flip the lid open, revealing 24 carat gold ring

The gold band was engraved with small detailing and sitting in the middle was a giant tear shaped diamond 

"There's a note" Yuzu whispers to me 

There's always a note

Always 

I reach for the paper sitting in the baby blue box and unravel the familiar folding

My Dearest Charlotte,

This is my proposal and my promise

that we will get married soon.

Sooner than you think.

You're coming home sweetheart.

Yours,

J.R

I finish reading the message and place the note back into the box
