It's strange isn't it.

It takes nine months for a life to enter this world, but can take less than a second to be taken away.

Virgil had always known this, that's why he distanced himself, to be cautious and uncaring.

But he did care, way to much.

He cared about Patton, Thomas, Logan, he even cared about Roman.

But most of all, he cared about you.

You were beautiful, the only person he truly felt he could confide in.

The only person he was absolutely in love with.

"Uh. Hey, do you sell this shirt in a large?" You asked the darkly dressed man.

The man laughed, "I don't work here."

Your face lit up like a Christmas tree.

"I'm so sorry sir." You mumbled.

"Virgil." He said, sticking out his hand.

"Y/n." You replied

You first met.
_______

"Y/n." Virgil mumbled, anxiously twisting his fingers.

"Anything wrong Virgil?" You asked, imidiatly standing up and approaching him.

"I... Do you... Wanna go... Nevermind." He sighed, and turned around.

You chuckled slightly, "Friday. Pick me up at eight."

He froze until he believed you had left, before fist punching the air in victory.

First time asking you out.
______

"Virgil where are we going?" You laughed, as Virgil held his hands over your eyes.

"Riiggghhhhttttt. Here!" He pulled his hands off your eyes and allowed you to view the scenery.

A small black and purple checkered blanket lye in the grass, fairy lights hanging around said blanket.

A small picnic basket in the middle of the blanket.

You nearly cried. "It's beautiful Virgil."

Virgil smiled and hugged you placing a small kiss on your cheek.

Your first date.
_____

"Merry Christmas!" You smiled, giving everyone a hug, before approaching your beloved.

You hugged him.

A small squeal came from another person in the room.

You turned to see Patton pointing above you.

You look up, only to see one of the most annoying yet entertaining, if you're not caught under it with a moron, holiday traditions yet.

Virgil's face was a bright red.

You chuckled slightly, and wrapped your arms around his neck.

He placed his hands softly on your hips, as you connected yours and his lips, in your first kiss.

Your head was laying in Virgil's lap as he sat on his bed watching The Nightmare Before Christmas.

You had been together for a year, and still have yet to utter those three words that could make or break someone.

"Oh my dear king." You said, receiving a slight laugh from Virgil.

"Yes my dearest queen?" He replied.

You smiled, gazing into his sparkling brown eyes.

"I love you." You sighed. "I love you so much."

He crashed his lips to yours, pulling away a few moments later.

"I love you so much more."

Your first "I love you"s.
_______

"So," you said to your boyfriend of four years. "Why are we here, you're not exactly best friends with the dark."

You were standing in front of the car, and standing before you was the dark forest.

"This is where we had our first date, and this is where I proposed to you." Virgil replied.

You thought for a moment, Virgil hadn't proposed.

You turned to look at Virg to see him down on one knee.

"I don't believe in weddings, or I didn't. But you, you changed me. You believed in me. I love you. So will you, Y/n L/n, be mine?" He questioned.

Tears pricked your eyes until you managed to find words.

"Till death do us part." You replied.

He jumped up, wrapping his arms around your waist and sliding the beautiful purple and black banded ring with a Ruby placed delicately in the middle.

"I love you so much Virgil."

"And I love you so much more."
_______

"Do you, Virgil Sanders, take Y/n, to be your lawfully wedded partner?"

"I do."

"Do you, Y/n L/n, take Virgil to be your lawfully wedded husband?"

"I do."

"You may kiss the bride."

All these memories flooded his mind, but it was too late.

He didn't remember in time.

You were gone.
_____

"Virgil." You smiled, "I love you with all my heart, you know that right?"

He smiled, "Of course I do."

Tears glazed your eyes, as you looked over at your husband.

"I'm sorry." You mumbled, before the car slammed into a wall and everything went black.

"Breaks stopped working while they were driving." The doctor said.

"The driver is in critical condition, the passenger may suffer from possible brain damage, but no further analysis can be made until they're awake."

Patton nodded, sobbing into Logan's shoulder as Roman tried to compose himself, and Thomas hid his tear stained face in his hands.

The next day, Virgil had woken up.

"Virgil!" Patton cried, wrapping his arms around Virgil.

Virgil tensed, and Patton pulled away.

"Who's Virgil?"
_____

He had visited you, be he didn't remember you.

It's not like you could tell. You couldn't speak, or even move. You were in a coma.

"Clear!" The doctor shouted, before pressing the electrified plates to your chest once more.

"Call it." The doctor said sadly, after trying six times with no result.

"Time of death: 3:13 am."
_____

"Virgil?" Someone questioned, he was snapped out of his memories.

She was all he had remembered so far.

He looked up at the man.

"Patton?" He questioned, hoping he had gotten the right name.

The cardigan wearing man nodded, approaching his devastated son.

"She's gone." Virgil mumbled looking down at the floor.

"I can't believe she's gone. Dad." He cried.

Patton, having never been called that before by Virgil, leaped from his seat, pulling his child into his chest.

"She'll never be forgotten, Patton spoke, voice shakey and cracking. "She'll forever live in our minds, our hearts, and out heads."

Virgil nodded looking up at his father figure.

"I want to remember everything dad. Everyone, everything, and every place I've ever been." Virgil sniffled. "Do you promise to tell me?"

"I promise."
