'Remember when you taught me fate
Said it'd all be worth the wait'

"I love you too, Win."

Win couldn't believe it. He hadn't expected his feelings to be reciprocated.

He stared at Bright even as Bright smiled at him.

"You're not saying this just because I told you right?" Win asked unsure.

Bright frowned.

"No Win. Why would I? I genuinely have fallen in love with you baby." Bright came closer to Win and held his hands.

Win searched Bright's face for dishonesty but was met with none of it.

And then Win smiled.

He removed his hands from Bright's hold and hugged him tight.

"Thank you. Thank you. Thank you." He chanted as happiness filled his heart and Bright hugged him back.

***

"I need to tell you something, Win." Bright said seriously.

Win turned to look at Bright.

"Yeah?" Win asked.

"I... I might not be able to frequent this place as much." Bright said hesitantly. His eyes never met Win's as he looked out into the night sky.

"Why?" Win said frowning.

"There are... There are certain things going on currently and.... I need to deal with them." Bright said softly.

"Like? You can tell me Bright." Win said and turned fully towards him.

"I know. You're so cute." Bright said making eye contact with Win.

Win blushed pink and looked away.

"Like a baby." Bright smirked as Win whipped his head towards Bright.

"You always have to annoy me, don't you!" Win pouted and shifted away.

"Awww. Come on." Bright laughed and pulled Win to his chest.

Win resisted and tried to push away.

"Yes you're a baby. But you're my baby." Bright said and planted a kiss on top of Win's head.

"Cheesy." Win rolled his eyes affectionately.

'Like that night in the back of the cab
When your fingers walked in my hand'

Bright sighed as he reached out and felt the raindrops on his palm.

It had started raining very heavily and he knew that it would not stop anytime soon.

"It won't stop even if we wait, will it?" Win asked looking up at the night sky which looked even darker due to the rain clouds covering it.

Bright shook his head and shoved his hands inside his jeans pocket.

"You didn't let me take the car. Now how will we go home?" Bright said turning to look at Win.

Win looked at him guiltily and shrugged.

They both looked out into the rain and stood under the little shelter the outside of the restaurant provided.

Suddenly, Win grabbed Bright's hand and ran out into the road.

"Win!" Bright said as he was suddenly in midst of the onslaught of a thousand raindrops.

"Come on!" Win said and started running on the road and dragging Bright behind him.

Win suddenly stopped in the middle of the road and turned around and kisses Bright.

Bright was shocked for a second before he kissed Win back.

They broke apart and smiled at each other.

And when they finally found a taxi and sat at the back both of them by the two opposite windows but held hands in between while the old taxi driver scolded them both about roaming around in the rainy night.

Nobody needed to know how much Win's heart fluttered and how big his smile was in the darkness of the car.

'Next day, nothin' on my phone
But I can still smell you on my clothes'

Even though it had been weeks since their confession, Win wasn't sure about his relationship with Bright.

Bright and him met up almost everyday and sometimes Bright wouldn't show up at all.

They had even exchanged numbers but Bright never answered Win's calls and rarely replied to his texts.

But whenever Bright would text first they had a long conversation and that was it.

Win felt sad and upset and he couldn't quite figure out if what Bright told him weeks ago was true or not.

Bright's last message to him was:
I can't come to our spot for a few weeks.

Win didn't know what to do. He texted Bright why but never a reply came. It has been 6 days since then.

Yet, everyday Win texts him asking him how he is, did he eat, what is he doing, when he is coming back and I love you.

But the messages were only sent and never opened.

Win spent his mornings going to school and back and nights crying in his bed.

'Always hoping things would change
But we went right back to your games'

"I told you I'm sorry!" Bright yelled at Win.

"You are not sorry Bright. If you were you'd tell me why-" Win yelled back.

"I can't tell you!! Understand me please Win." Bright interrupted him.

Win looked at Bright through his red puffy eyes and tear stained cheeks.

"Weeks, Bright, weeks. That's how long you've been gone. With just one text message to me." Win said his voice breaking.

Bright looked at Win guiltily.

"Win I- I'm sorry." Bright said softly.

"You're not Bright. You're not." Win answered back.

"I am. I truly am." Bright walked closer to Win and held his hands.

Win shook his hands out of Bright's grasp and moved back.

A moment of silence passed between them.

"I don't even know what I am to you Bright. We spend some little time together before you go away for weeks and I don't know where or to who either." Win said accusingly.

Bright stood in silence and looked at Win.

"You mean the world to me, Win. Just let me figure this out, please. I love you. I really love you, Win." Bright said and moved closer to hug Win.

Win hugged him back and his his face onto his shoulder.

"I love you too."

***

"Do you think we'll be like this forever?" Win asked one day curiously.

Bright stayed silent as he looked out into the night sky.

"Bright!" Win whined as he looked at the elder. "You're not listening again!"

"I'm sorry. What did you say?" Bright turned and asked Win.

"Nothing." Win pouted.

"Tell me. Come on." Bright poked at Win's side.

"Nothing. Nothing." Win brushed him off.

Bright narrowed his eyes at Win and was going to say something when Win spoke first.

"You know there's a song that reminds me of..... us." Win said hesitantly.

"Oh? What is it?" Bright asked curious.

"Strawberries and Cigarettes." Win answered with a soft smile.

"How?" Bright frowned.

"You're Cigarettes and I'm Strawberry." Win laughed as Bright made a face. "Other than that it's a really good song."

Bright just hummed as he looked at night.

Bright:
Try not to contact me as such anymore. See you when I see you.

Hii! Posting after a century!

I still hope y'all like this and didn't abandon it like i did.

To everyone, it's a little hard for me to get into the BrightWin feels after I've shifted fandoms. I still love and support them though don't worry. They somehow seemed very bro-y to me somehow so it was difficult to write. But this was halfway written and i wrote a little more and here it is!!!

I hope you know this might not have a happy ending. Really depends on the author though.

Also please don't hate on Bright. I just wanted to make him an asshole here because I can and because this isn't based off of reality or true in any way.

Love you guys!!!
Like Bright said see you when i see you until then take care loves and stay healthy!!! (bright didn't say the last part but I did 5555+)
