Imagine #11: Surprise!!

You are crying again. Things are really not going so well in your relationship with Patrick and you hate it. You love the guy so much and even if he hasn't called you, texted you or even checked if you're okay for the few months, you can't get yourself to be angry at him. The situation is definitely breaking you, you've become a martyr to him, and you chose to fight the pain. You don't just lose him.

During this whole situation, Pete was the only one who comforts you. You always feel like he's your brother and you feel that more now. He's shown that he really is worried about you and you're thankful that he's there, making you remember that Patrick loves you.

"Did I do something wrong? Why did he suddenly became cold like this?" you asked him while crying. Again. You don't do this often, but the situation is really messing you up.

"I really tried to get the answer out of him, but it seems like he himself doesn't know the answer too, Y/N. Don't get me wrong, I'm not siding with him and he's a total jerk for doing this to you, but I believe that you guys are going to be alright. Trust me, I know you both will," He said to you. You always appreciate Pete's words and you know he's not just saying this to comfort you. He really means it. "You need to unwind a little. This may sound so stupid but why don't you go to our concert tonight? I'm sure he'll appreciate it if you're there." He said. You just wiped your tears off and nodded at him. For all you know, you'd do everything just to make your relationship with Patrick go back to normal.

The night came fast and the concert is about to start. You are, of course, at the front-most part of the mosh pit. Pete also told you earlier that Patrick doesn't know you're there, so you'll just surprise him. You put a huge smile and hoped for the best – hoping that after this concert, you and Patrick will be okay again.

The concert went on, but you're feeling discouraged already. Patrick hasn't laid a single eye on you. You were screaming so hard, there's no way he wasn't able to hear your voice even just a little – you were in front anyways. You're sure that he is ignoring you. Some tears escaped your eye involuntarily but you made sure that you wipe them immediately. You don't want to look sad in there, but at the same time, maybe this is the sign that you need to go. Maybe he really doesn't want you anymore.

"One night yeah and one more time
Thanks for the memories
Even though, it weren't so great!" he sang and more tears fell. You were glad that the people around you were busy looking at them on stage and they don't notice you crying. You convinced yourself that you're going to let him go because it's obvious he doesn't want you anymore.

"Thank you, Chicago, for this wonderful night!" you heard Pete shouted.

"But before we end this night, I just want to say something," You heard Patrick's voice and his voice is a little shaky too. I wasn't from singing, you hear the nervousness in it, "This will be a cheesy and came-out-of-nowhere speech but you'll understand later, so just bear with me...umm...it's really sad that a lot of people nowadays hurries into marriage. You know, it's like you've just met someone, you fall in love with that someone then you decided to marry that someone in just like a month or two. And it's really bothering me because usually, they'd just probably end up divorcing each other since their relationship is not intimate enough and they hurried to marriage that fast. Marrying should only be done by people who can't live without the other...and I think I've learned this the hard way," He said and you don't know where this is going. You looked up and saw him putting his guitar down. "I've been a jerk...a total douchebag to someone, but I learned something from it - it drove me insane, not from the fact that I'm becoming a bad person, but from the fact that I really can't live without her," He said and he's now in front of you. You were shocked, but you stayed silent while just staring at him, the crowd was silent too. You saw Patrick crying in front of you and you know everything he's saying is genuine, "I've been ignoring you since I'm always busy. I've stopped calling and texting, I've didn't check on you, then one day I just woke up feeling insane...feeling really incomplete. I need you...every day in my life. I learned this the hard way, princess, but I hope you forgive me. I know what I did was unforgivable and I will give you no excuses. I was on the wrong, but I really realized then that I do love and need you. This might be a stupid question now but heck, will you please...please marry me? I'm going to lose my sanity if another day pass without you being on my side again." His words are sincere, all of it. You know he's really guilty, he genuinely apologized - this is all you hoped for.

Patrick is now on his knees, holding a simple ring that you've always wanted. He is also smiling at you with a guilty face and tears were falling down from his eyes.

The security let you inside the VIP area and the both of you are now so close with each other.

"I'll never....ever be able to live without you by my side, Patrick! And YES! I'll marry you even if you're kinda stupid at times!!" you murmured while chuckling and crying at the same time.

He slipped the ring on your finger and you just lost it. You pulled him up to hug and kiss him to which he responded lovingly, you didn't even care about the crowd anymore. They cheered for the both of you and this is all you both ever wanted.

"I guess our happily ever after is now officially starting." You whispered to him. He kissed you sweetly on your cheeks.

"I'm really sorry, princess, but you're right, from this day forward I won't let anything ruin our happily ever after! I love you so much, {Y/N}."

"I love you so much more, Stumpy." You whispered back.
