thuringen | you'll definitely come for me, right?

[ For the entirety of the week, there was nothing that Elisabeth had been looking forward to more than her study date with März. It was something that she couldn't quite get her mind off of, distracting her in most of her classes, but the scheduled day had finally arrived, and her heart was fluttering within her chest from anticipation. She waited at home, staring at the clock that seemed to torment her as the second hand ticked slowly, seeming as though the appointed time would never arrive. Although it was a study date, it wasn't a date in its official definition, but she couldn't stop herself from feeling as though it was one.

Elisabeth was absolutely smitten with the boy, but she did her best to conceal her feelings lest her feelings were unrequited. She pined for something more, but she was more than happy to sacrifice her desires so long as she maintained her friendship with März. She didn't particularly feel that he would feel the same way towards her; after all, she wasn't anything special. Her beauty paled in comparison to some of their other classmates - in particular, a girl with skin as white as snow, hair as black as ebony, and lips as red, and another girl with fair skin, long golden hair, and rosy pink lips - and she certainly wasn't as charming and popular as them.

She was just...Elisabeth, and that was precisely why she wouldn't ask for anything more. So long as she was by März's side, she was content. ]

I would love that, b-but it's already settled, I'm s-sorry to disappoint you. B-besides, I wouldn't want to ever impose ou-our financial problems onto you and your family. [ Seeing her crying face makes his chest tighten, and causes his lip to quiver. He tries to blink away the tears, but they keep coming. ] I..I never wanted to leave your side either, especially now knowing your feelings.

[ It looks like their materials have been forgotten. He tries to get a grip on his emotions, but it takes some time. Although it's off his chest, he can't help but feel guilt for causing Elisabeth such despair. ] I'll never be gone if you keep me close to your heart, Elisabeth. [He says this softly, now standing from his side of the table and he walks over to her seat. While she sobs, the boy takes the blond into an embrace, holding her close to him. ]

It won't be for forever, I....o-once I get a job of my own and a license and a car, I'll make an effort to come visit. W--We can ma-make this work still, even if we won't see one another every single day. [ He pulls back from their embrace, then takes a moment to wipe away her tears. He then parts her bangs with his hand and places a soft kiss there. His gaze then returns back to her now, and he offers her a smile. ] Ju....just remember Elisabeth, I love you–– and always will.

[ Elisabeth hadn't intended for her emotions to get the better of her, but she continues to sob until she's rendered into a quivering, hiccuping mess. She has no doubt that she looks entirely unsightly right now, but try as she might, she just can't seem to compose herself. It's only when März pulls her into an embrace that she starts to calm down, but at the same time, it seems to fuel her crying even further.

It's safe and warm being in März's arms, but knowing that their time together is fleeting only makes it bittersweet...yet, a part of her is comforted by März's words. So long as she kept him close to her heart, he'd never truly be gone...? And he even promised that he would come and visit her one day. Then, that reassurance would be to comfort her in her days of waiting for him. She sniffles as he wipes away her tears and presses a kiss to her forehead. ] I-I...I shall always keep you in my heart, März. Until the day you return for me...I will never forget you.

[ She offers him a smile in return, but it's a little shaky as she tries to pull herself together. ]

I love you, too. My heart shall never belong to anyone but you, I assure you. [ And she knows deep down that this is true. So long as she's alive, she will never love anyone but him. No matter what her Id tells her or how it tries to sway her otherwise, she knows that it will never shake her love for März. Now that that's settled, Elisabeth takes a moment to wipe away any remaining tears März may have missed and glances towards their studying materials.

Honestly, she's made herself spent by crying that she doesn't even feel like studying anymore, and now that she knows März is going to be leaving at the end of the school term, all she wants to do now is spend whatever little time they have left as a couple. ] ...I do have one final, selfish request I'd like to ask of you, März. [ Her expression goes a little sheepish, as if what she wants to ask is somehow more embarrassing than having bawled in front of him moments prior. ] If you do not mind, do you think you could...hold me again? Could we stay like that for the rest of the day...? I would like nothing more than to just be in your arms.

you'll definitely come for me, right?
