Chapter 25 “New Beginning”
It was a fine day in January. The winter had already turned into spring, the weather still a bit cold, but the warm breeze made it perfect. Allen had been released from the hospital for a few weeks. No more sadness and pain for him. He just felt happy now.
“Hmm…” Allen mumbled. He could feel light pressure on his hip. A warm pair of arms was hugging him from the back. He opened his eyes as the sunlight greets him.
“Morning, Allen~” said Kaien before he kissed Allen’s lips passionately.
Allen returned the kiss. “Morning, Kai…” Allen greeted back with a smile.
“We need to get ready…” Kaien mumbled as he adjusted his position, into sitting on the bed.
“For what?” Allen asked. He used the blanket to cover his body.
“Hey, I already saw everything, Allen…” Kaien said as he pulled the blanket from Allen. “For god sake, we did that so much time already…” 
“Pervert!” Allen shouted as he tried to get his blanket back. He chased Kaien until they reached the bathroom.
Kaien entered the bathroom first as Allen followed. But something got Allen from the back as soon as he entered the bathroom.
“Let me go~” Allen pouted when he knew that Kaien got him from the back.
“No…” Kaien answered slowly. He took Allen to the bathtub. Then, both of them have a bubble bath.
“Kaien~ Are we going somewhere today?” Allen asked as he played with the bubble.
“Yes, Allen. You better prepare yourself after this,” Kaien suggested, which sounds more like a warning. “I’ll go somewhere first. I’ll be back in half an hour and make sure you’re ready when I’m back, OK?” Kaien rubbed Allen’s back before Allen could answer.
“Ok… But where are we goi…” Allen stopped when he realized what Kaien did. Kaien kissed his back, right where the scar was. It almost disappears now, but still visible.
“Kai…” Allen called.
“I love you, my Allen…” Kaien whispered in Allen's ear.

“Here we are!” Kaien said as he and Allen got out of the car.
“This is…” Allen could not believe where he was now. He was on the hill again, the same hill where they were having their Christmas Date.
“Our dream place, the place where I decide to have another picnic with you, but this time, I’ll make sure you won’t get away from me again…” Kaien said as he kissed Allen’s lips.
“Kai…”
“So, let’s eat, shall we?”
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
No more threaten from that bastard, Kanae. The police surely do their work well. No more pain in the ass from Allen’s father. He realized what he had done, now he was in rehabilitation. He decided to stop drinking, gambling and taking drugs. That really makes Allen happy, not because he had forgiven him, but maybe because his father finally sober. 
It was just a matter of time until Allen’s family came back to the happiest family in the world. He got Allen as his boyfriend and future spouse. Dom as a cute little brother. Benji and Nathan as his best friends.
The world just seems to be perfect from them.

“Kai, stop…” Allen moaned. But Kaien did not stop. He kissed Allen down to the neck. “Kai!” Allen almost shouted out loud as he pushed Kaien away from him. His face was all red, like a tomato. He was blushing hard.
“Why?” Kaien asked in a teasing tone. “I want to show my love for you, my Allen…”
“Not here…” Allen suggested. “People are watching.”
That was true. There were some couples who looked at them. This time, they were not alone. It was springtime and so many people had a picnic there. The hill looked a bit crowded even though it was already seven in the evening. The sun was set. Allen and Kaien spent their day there, chatting, sometimes kissing, like a normal couple would do. Well, Kaien gots carried away sometime.
“Allen, let’s go…” Kaien pulled Allen up from the mat, leaving their stuff there.
“But, our stuff…” 
“Just follow me…”
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
“Kai…” Allen called as he stopped walking. “I’m tired.”
“Just a bit more…” 
“I don’t want to walk anymore…”
Without warning, Kaien carried Allen on his arm, like a prince carrying a princess.
“Kaien!”
“Shh… We are almost there…”
They had been walking for almost half an hour, went around the hill. There was nobody near them. It was just so quiet, the night had come, stars and moon already painted the night sky.
Finally they arrived at the top of the hill.
“It’s so beautiful…” Allen commented once Kaien put him down.
“I want to show this to you…” Kaien pointed to the sky as he and Allen sat on the grass.
“What star is it?” Allen asked.
