 The incident ended with Sara fainted. Lilac worried at first but Yue assured him that she only fainted out of too much shock and pressure.

       Lilac took Sara home after answering few questions from the board. Carl Tucker has been kick out of the without any consideration from his grandfather. In the old man's point of view, his parents did not teach him a lesson and he is not a man who tolerates any misconduct and that includes his own kin.

It was eleven in the evening when Sara gain her consciousness. She was about to stand up when a strong arm held her down. That's when her gaze went to the sleeping Lilac. His face seems peaceful.

       Today's event was worth celebrating but because of that pervert it passes like a regular day.

When the graduation ceremony has ended, she took a plight to the comfort room because these past few days her body can't control the urges to pee. After a session in the comfort room, she's on the way to Lilac when a strong arm covered her mouth. She kick and push him but his way too strong. She was too lucky that Lilac saved her for the second time.

"I don't know if I can live without you," she whisper as she touch his brows. Trying to soothe his furrowed eyebrows. His look made her think like he was having a nightmare.

"Lilac," she called.

Lilac's eyes jolted open. When it lands on her, he heave a sigh of relief and embraced her tightly. Trembling, he buried his face between her neck. Inhaling her scent.

"Do you have a nightmare?" she inquire.

Lilac shake his head no but the fear in his eyes tells otherwise.

"They will not disturb us anymore. Carl was rendered mentally ill while Sonia was ordered to transfer schools after the video of her bullying me was out," Lilac stated.

      Sara nodded with a small smile on her lips. Sonia's transferring is not her problem. She already graduated and if she doesn't transfer, it still took three years to hardly seen her. She frowned when felt something poking her chest comes from Lilac. It was only that she realizes that he hadnt change his clothes from before.

"What that thing?"

Lilac also frown and pick the small hard thing from his breast pocket. It was a fountain pen that  the original owner always kept with him all the time.

"T-That pen," she mumbles. That pen is the gift that she hardly paid and gave it to Lilac secretly after he won being the student council president. She didn't know that all along he always kept it with him.

Lilac smiled gently and raise the fountain pen. The price of this pen for commoner surely is high but for rich person, just a penny to throw. But the original owner always keep this, he took great care of it not because he need this pen but because of the message with it when it came as gift;

"If you want a change. Why don't you start to yourself first then all the changes you want will reveal right before your eyes," Lilac and Sara both recited.

His eyes curved in happiness as his face radiant with joy.

"I knew you are my stalker," he boost.

Sara sneered at the felt like insult. "Well, you just married your stalker yourself,"

He nodded and kiss her temple. "Yes, I'm lucky I married my stalker. How about you? Are you happy you married your secret admirer?"

Sara frown as she realized, her eyes grew rounded. Remembering the person who sent her a book about flowers and their meaning. "Y-You--?!"

      Lilac laughs. Remembering the original owner who admires these woman before he could inhabit his body, he can't help but felt jealous.

Yue: Yeah host... Eat your own vinegar. You're now him, so getting jealous to the original owner is like getting jealous at your own reflection.

"Crazy!" Sara laughs. She doesn't know that all along they were chasing each other like idiots.

"That's why we fit," he grinned as his hand wondered on her body. Sara blushes. Soon, the bed rocked as moans and groans drown inside the room.
****
        Exactly two months later after their graduation. Sara walk down the aisle wearing a long white gown. Her face blooms with happiness as she gain steps towards the smiling Lilac.

I wanna know
Who ever told you
I was letting go
The only joy
That I have ever known
Girl, they were lying

Just look around
And all of the people
That we used to know
Have just given up,
They wanna let it go
But we're still trying

So you should know
This love we share
Was never made to die
I'm glad we're on this one way street
Just you and I
Just you and I

I'm never gonna say goodbye
Cos I never wanna see you cry
I swore to you my love would remain
And I swear it all over again and I
I'm never gonna treat you bad
Cos I never wanna see you sad
I swore to share your joy
And your pain
And I swear it all over again

All over again

She was two and a half months pregnant, though her pregnancy is still small to notice. To Lilac's little disappointment, their first born in this world is not a twin.

I should have work harder! Lilac thought to himself.

       They exchanged vows and rings. As the priest said the golden word. It was his cue to raise the veil.

Lilac chuckles when he raised the veil to see a hicupping Sara. Her face is already drenched with tears from crying. Fortunately, her make up is waterproof or else that will be already ruin to begin with.

"Don't blame me for the song. You choose that,"

Sara nugged him. To his surprised, she pulled on his necktie and sealed his lips with hers.

        People clapped their hands at the lovely couple. Mostly the attendees are their former classmates who still shocked that this still two will end up being each other. They both gasped for air when they lips separated from each other.

"I'll loved for the next lifetimes ahead of us," Lilac mumbles. Sara smiled between their kiss. Their foreheads lean with each other.

"And I'll loved until the time ends," she answered.
