Chapter 4 - BONUS CHAPTER: appreciate the little things in life

*please play the cover of 10,000 hours by Jungkook in the background! (Thats the song that inspired me to write this, so it'll give the best effect if you listen to it in the background!)*

Alex just finished washing up in the bathroom, when he a melodic, heavenly voice. He gets curious, and starts to walk towards the voice. When he sees who singing, he stops in his tracks.

What he sees is this: midnight leaning on the windowsill, looking at the sunset outside with a loving look in her eyes singing:

"Do you love the rain? Does it make you dance

When you're drunk with your friends at a party?

What's your favorite song? Does it make you smile?

Do you think of me?

When you close your eyes

Tell me what are you dreaming?

Everything, I wanna know it all

I'd spend 10,000 hours and 10,000 more

Oh, if that's what it takes to learn that sweet heart of yours

And I might never get there but I'm gonna try

If it's 10,000 hours or the rest of my life

I'm gonna love you ooh"

Alex stood there, dumbstruck. when he realized he was going to scare her if she saw him now, he quickly hid his presence and stood behind a wall.

"Do you miss the road that you grew up on?

Did you get your middle name from your grandma?"

'Ah crap, how'd she know!?'

"When you think about your forever now

Do you think of me?

When you close your eyes

Tell me what are you dreaming?

Everything, I wanna know it all

I'd spend 10,000 hours and 10,000 more

Oh, if that's what it takes to learn that sweet heart of yours

And I might never get there but I'm gonna try

If it's 10,000 hours or the rest of my life

I'm gonna love you ooh

I'm gonna love you

Ooh, want the good and the bad and everything in between

Ooh, gotta cure my curiosity

Ooh yeah, I'd spend 10,000 hours and 10,000 more

Oh, if that's what it takes to learn that sweet heart of yours

And I might never get there but I'm gonna try

If it's 10,000 hours or the rest of my life

I'm gonna love you ooh

I'm gonna love you, yeah ooh

And I'm~

Gonna love you

I'm~

Gonna love you"

When she finished, she heard someone clapping.

*Clap clap clap*

"Wow, didn't expect the almighty daughter of the Kuronuma family to be a singer."

When she heard Alex's deep voice, she blushed until she looked like a ripe tomato.

Alex walked over and leaned next to her on the window.

"That was such a nice song. mind if you sing it to me some other time?"

Midnight sat quietly, looking outside. They sat there for a while, looking out the window at the sunset.

When Alex was about to leave. Midnight started to hum.

Alex looked over at Midnight, who was still looking at the sunset with a tinge of blush on her cheeks.

'Mom once said to appreciate the little things at life. Maybe this is what she was talking about.'

Alex started to sing the lyrics he heard from her.

Midnight looked at him, surprised. She then smiled and continued humming, adding some background words once in a while.

This was a memory both of them would always remember.

When a teacher heard humming, he was about to walk over and ridicule the student until he heard a rich voice singing.

when he saw who was singing, he was surprised.

'The young master of the Katsuki family can sing?'

he then saw a young girl next to him, humming.

'Ahhh~ young love.'

He continued to stare at them, savoring the song until he felt a tap on his shoulder.

"I think you're ruining their moment." Someone whispered from behind them.

When the teacher looked back, he jumped and said quietly, "p-principal! s-sorry! I'll g-go now!"

After the teacher ran away, The principal looked at the couple and smiled softly.

'Oh, how fast they grow.' he thought.

He then turned around a quietly walked away, leaving the couple some privacy.
