Moonlight lily

A rich land of purple grassy fields, beneath the violet tree were two figures holding hands; Hikki and Basil.
Basil’s colorful flower crown matched nicely with his blue hair while Hikki’s flower crown just looks out of place due to her monochromatic appearance.
They leaned on each other’s shoulders as the others were playing back at the playground. Having time to themselves was refreshing and reminded them of old memories.
”Hey Hikki, remember the first time we met.”
”I remember, when Aubrey introduced you to the group. You were quite shy back then.”
”Y-Yeah, but I changed a lot since then!”
Hikki closed her eyes and went through her memories. Black and white static first appeared, as if her memories were rewriting the setting.
They traveled mirror mountain, where the ground was nothing but glass mirrors. The girls had to wear pants that day. Next was penguin plaza, a village of penguin all wearing unique hats. Lastly, was the same exact spot they were sitting on, next to the tree.
In all those memories, Basil grew closer and closer to Hikki. When they won battles, he would hug her thigh. When they ate lunch together, he was always feeding Hikki like a child. Then at the tree they were at, he-
”I confessed my feelings for you here…do you remember?”
Hikki nods and looks at the purple sky.
”When you were a man, ask me again…I’ll probably say yes.”
Basil was red as a beet, he quickly turned to Hikki to give her a little peck on the cheek.
Hikki’s eyes opened wide and placed her hand on the cheek that was blessed. This lingering feeling she had.
One of regret.
A bad feeling, perhaps a memory? It was hard to tell, nothing came to her head.
Nothing ever did.
How long as it been since she told Basil her answer; 4 years? You’d think he would’ve grown up just a bit by now.
…the wait was killing her.
Hikki taps on Basil’s shoulders, he turned around to have his lips stolen by her.
A longing desire, something she felt like she would never see again. She had to savor this moment to every feeling of his warmth.
She pulls away to see the reddest flower she has ever seen. Basil kept stuttering, but felt something heavy on his knees.
Hikki claimed her favorite pillow and rested her head on his lap. Basil couldn’t help but smile as he pets the oversized cat-like girl.
”We’ll be together…waiting for when the time comes, right Hikki?”
Of course, he would always be waiting for her. No matter what would happen, he’ll be there for her when she needs him the most.
His kindness, his caring personality, it’s no wonder Sunny was his best friend…
…
Was?…
…
Probably something went through her mind, but she quickly forgot about it.
All she wanted at this moment was rest with her tulip.
