I blink open my eyes as she rolls on top of me before she got up, waking me up in the process. I roll over, a hazy smile coming over my face at the thought of what had happened last night. I sit up as Aqua calls and I could tell something was wrong from the sound of her voice. I swing my legs over the side of the bed, going down the hallway in my boxers to look into the kitchen where Aqua was crying over Noel. "What happened?" I ask, genuinely confused. She was clearly dead, but what had happened? I hadn't done anything, but was it what I hadn't done? I pull Aqua into my arms, hoping to calm her down.

I watch as Riddle comes down the hall to see me over Noel, tears staining my cheeks. For a minute, I really thought Gregor would have poisoned her but I knew better. He had loved her just as much as I had and would make sure she was always healthy. Her age had to be the reason she died. I mean, I had her since I was ten so it made sense. As Riddle wraps his arms around me, I lean my head into his chest and huff. "Old age, I hope," I mumble through tears. This wasn't something I was use to and I never would be use to it. I look over at the corpse and sigh, wanting to go ahead and bury her or find some way to keep it out of my sight.

I wipe the tears from her cheeks with my thumb, pressing my lips to her temple softly. This wasn't the morning that I had been planning on. "What should we do with her? I mean, my parents would be ticked if I just start digging a hole in the yard- my Dad is nuts about perfect grass." I ask, shaking my head. I move to lead Aqua out of the kitchen and sit down on the couch, pulling her into my lap as I held her.

I calm down slightly as he wipes my face and kisses my temple though I don't know how to answer. I just shrug and lean against him as he pulls me to him and rest my head in the crook of his neck. For a moment, I wish that I could sit here in his arms forever though without the tears. "Riddle," I mumble before looking up at him and hugging him tightly. "I love you...thanks for everything so far," I whisper as I hold him, refusing to let go. Right now, I didn't know what was the appropriate way to react but I was acting on instinct.

I sigh as she rests her head in the crook of my neck. I honestly didn't know what to do. Digging a whole in the yard was rpetty much out of the question. I look over as Aqua mumbles my name before a small grin splits my face. "I love you too." I reply, leaning forward to press my lips to hers for a moment before pulling back. "And its not a problem, Aqua, and I.. i hope you don't have any regrets." I continue, looking at the wall to avoid looking her in the face. I was slightly guilty about the whole thing last night, though she had said she wanted to.

I smile slightly as he says he loves me and reach for his hand to hold it. I look up as he says he hoped I didn't have regrets and I kiss his cheek. "If I had regrets, I wouldn't be here," I say, kissing him lightly before resting my head back in the crook of his neck. I would have left if I regretted anything, it was just who I was. My arms wrap around his waist and I bury my face against his chest.

I lace our fingers together and nod at ehr reply, though I wasn't totally convinced. I certainly didn't have any regrets, and I hoped Aqua wasn't lying to me to make me feel better about myself. I turn my head to press my lips to her cheek as she buried her face in the crook of my neck and I wrap an arm around her waist. "Do you want to go out for breakfast then figure out what to do with Noel when we get back?" I ask quietly, not wanting to upset her.

I look at our hands and smile slightly as I squeeze his hand. "I'm probably going to sound weird but I dreamed about you last night," I confess as he wraps his arm around me. My head shakes as he asks if I want to go out for breakfast. I wasn't really hungry and at the moment, all I wanted to do was focus on something other than Noel and life. Before I met Riddle, I'd probably lock myself in my room for days on end without eating or talking to anyone. It was just who I was.

A blush crosses my face as she says that she dreamed about me last night and I look away, not wanting Aqua to see it. I shrug as she shakes her head in reply to breakfast and I press my lips to her cheek softly.
"D-Do you know what to do with Noel?" i ask, looking down at my lap for a moment before glancing to the TV. I sorta wanted to turn it on, just for some background noise. But, I felt it wouldn't be right for some reason.

My fingers play with his hand during the silence until he presses his lips to my cheek. "Not really. I might just bury her at Gregor's," I say, looking down. It wasn't the best idea for me to go back but I knew that he would be just as devastated and wouldn't mind me burying her there. It was the only place I could think of at the moment. I sigh and close my eyes, relaxing against Riddle and holding his hand.
