Fly Me To The Moon

Unexpected

'fly me to the moon and let me play among the stars, let me see what spring is like on jupiter and mars~'

I'd always love that song, it reminds me of someone back on my teenage life. I met someone who captured my heart with a perfect shot, his pretty chinky eyes, and beautiful smile he's a full package deal. I can't get over him after all this years, everytime i play and sing this song it reminds me of him.

"Mom, let's go! They are waiting!" my daughter cried to catch my attention.

I'm at the veranda looking down at my 15 year old daughter. I smiled sweetly as I looked at her, she's my gem, my gold and everything, my baby.

"coming honey ~"

As i stepped outside on the porch of our house, my daughter immediately tug and grab me by my arm.

"mom, let's goooo~" she cutely plead.

I chuckled, she exactly looked like her father...

"hey ladies!"

someone called us out the gate standing coolly.

"DADDDDDDY!!" my daughter exclaimed and ran towards Aldrin. They hugged each other like they've never seen each other for years.

•'FLY ME TO THE MOON'•

"We better go." Aldrin smiled and motioned me to come.

I smile back as i walk towards them. He opened the car for me and put my seatbelt on. This guy loves me so much, I can tell. Our ride was fun, my daughter talks and talk and that keeps us both in company.

We reached our destination and i myself open the door beside me.

"I should be the one to open the door for you sweetie." Aldrin's words stopped me from stepping out.

" I can manage it myself Aldrin." I chuckled, he's like that he wants to do all the things for me, even the simple ones. I'm so blessed to have this guy in my life.

-CEMETERY-

I brushed his tombstone..

'PERCY QUIROS'

July 10, 199* - September 18 202*

In loving memory of the family

my sight became blurry and i feel hot liquids gushing down my face.

"Daddy, why is mommy crying? who's Percy?" I heard my daughter asked Aldrin.

"Let mommy be baby, he's a special person to your mom, let's wait for mommy inside the car ok?"Aldrin convinced my daughter. I felt that he tap my shoulder, i saw them walked towards the car.

"Hey... how are you?" i said as i cried my heart out.

It's been years since he died... exactly 15 years.

"P-Percy... w-why? why can't i forget you?" tears flowing down on my cheeks to his tomb. He died not knowing that i was pregnant by our child... Scarlet, our baby.

-flashback-

"Hey sweetie.." Percy grinned from ear to ear, he's my childhood Guy best friend and my boyfriend for 7 years. I'm pregnant for 3 weeks now, I haven't told him yet but im planning to surprise him on our Anniversary next-week.

"What's with that face Percy?" I asked him while I'm putting the music on 'fly me to the moon'.

He took me by my hand and swayed me slowly. He sang together with the song that was currenty playing. I raised my brows and chuckled.

"your so beautiful..." he said looking deeply into my eyes.

I playfully pat his shoulder as we continue to sway, feeling the song and cheerishing the moment. This is so romantic, swaying under the light of the night with the guy you love the most.

Percy is an Astronaut, he used to talk to me about him bringing me to the moon someday with him and our kids. He's always this kind of a jolly guy and sweet. I have no doubts in loving him. For me, he's the best of all the best.

He keeps on telling me 'we'll put a flag in the moon with our names on it, my dad said when you do it your relationship will last long just like my dad's and mom's relationship. Until death they hold on to each other, and I want us forever. I won't let anyone destroy us, I'll be with you forever. I'll fly you up to the Moon.'

•••••

Been 5 days since that night, 3 days more and it will be our anniversary. We've been together for years but my love for him grew more and more, each day and night. he's the only guy for me, i want to live with him for the rest of my life...With our baby, 3 days more and i'll be telling him about our baby. I'm so excited, i remember it when he talked to me about having kids with me.

'i wan't 2 kids sweetie, in the future with you' that was what he exactly said before. I smile reminiscing about it. He really loves to have children with me, and I too of course. I want to see how our children would look like in the near future.

It's April 13 already and tommorow will be our great day! im so excited. I'm standing infront of my huge full length mirror, my tummy shows a small baby bump, my gynecologist told me that my baby is healthy and it will take 2 and a half months to know the baby's gender. I smile as i carefully caress my tummy.

"baby... keep being healthy ok? we will tell daddy about you tommorow" i said as i continue to caress my tummy looking at my full length of my mirror inside my room.

"I wonder what will you look like, hmmm is me or your daddy's?" I caresses my tummy as I thought about what will our baby looks like when he or she gets born.

I put my clothes on after drying my hair, i went outside my room and walked down the stairs.

As i reached the last step of the staircase i heard my favorite song playing, mine and Percy's to be exact. In my curiousity i went to the kitchen only to found out that it was our radio playing.

"A beautiful song right?" it was my mom cooking.

"Yep, indeed" I smiled as I walked to beside my mom and gave her a peck on her cheek.

"You found your guy that will fly you to the moon darling." mommy said teasingly as she brush her hand on my hair.

"Oh c'mon mom stop it" i said blushing and i chuckled.

"He's a great guy, Percy is." she said indeed with her words.

"I know mom, I know" i said and hugged her.

————-

I lay down in bed carefully as I shut my eyes close with a smile on my lips, tomorrow it is.

APRIL 14

I'm looking at my face in my vanity mirror, I put a little make up to lighten my face. It's 5 in the afternoon, Percy set a dinner date for our anniversary. I smile, this day is what im waiting for. I

I felt my phone vibrated.

From: Sweetie❤️

'Sweetie i'll be late, im going to pick up something, wait for me okay? i love you and I won't stop loving you, not until the moon turns violet. I will fly you off to the moon. I love you so much❤️, wait for me to fetch you.'

Aldrin texted me, silly.

Too: Sweetie ❤️

'i love you too sweetie❤️ , yep! i'll be waiting mwuah!'

i hit the send button.

••••

It's already 9pm and im so worried about ethan, he told me to wait so i will...

"baby it's late, will Percy gonna pick you up?" mommy asked.

"Ahh yes mom, he just told me to wait. He's going to pick up something, he said." i replied as I pursed my mouth shut.

"Okay then... im going to sleep, just knock at the door if you need something ok?"

"Yes mom, Goodnight. I love you." me and I kiss my mom goodnight.

I sat at the couch and turned the television on and watch a drama of this MLS Series.

Suddenly there's a breaking news.

'A guy got into a car accident after losing a break and dodged towards the ten wheeler truck'

they've turn the camera to the crashed car. As my eyes locked into the cars plate number, i feel shivers running down my spine... I...i know that car..I cannot be wrong.

I immediately ran towards the staircase and called mom, I didn't waste a time and i took the car keys, I went to the place where the Accident happened. Police mobile where everywhere, ambulance wangs, people and authorities filled the place. I went to the crowd and directly went to the ambulance, there's a stretcher inside. Doctors and nurses were trying to survive the life of someone who's now in a critical condition.

I looked into that someone...

Which I regret.

My knees are weakening.

"N-no.." I uttered, I managed to push these people around me and rans toward the ambulance.

"Percy! n..no..! no!" I cried as I reached the ambulance and immediately went inside and take a hold of his hand.

"Sweetie ... hold on please, what happened" I cried as I tightened my grip to him.

He opened his eyes and manage to smile at me and uttered a words that caused my heart to break.

"i..im sor..ry you..wait..ted too long..i.. i l..ove y-you Sweetie.." he coughs blood but he manage to say before his hand fell.

It leaves me in a state of shock till I realize it. I screamed as tears were flowing down on my face.

"NO! No... no... sweetie.. Percy no..." I cry as I shake him. No, this can't be.

The people around us remained silent or it was just me who can't hear anything? I feel like I'm a room filled with an aura of extreme sadness and I cannot hear anything aside from myself screaming and crying.

"We're sorry maam, he did'nt make it the damaged to his head was too much." the doctor said.

I didn't tend to look at the doctor im still stunned, tears were still running of my face.

I..I thought this day could be the best day...But it was not.. it's the worst!

I-cried and cried hugging the cold body of the guy i love with all my heart, why does it have to be like this!? god what have i done wrong.. why..Why this?

•Flashback ends•

"You.. you told me to wait Percy .. I've waited but you left.." my voice is cracky and i cried even more.

I felt the cold air touched my skin, in a second it hit me...

"Is it you Percy ?.. I miss you so much... so so much..." I said as I feel the air and closed my eyes.

'smile sweetie , let go of me. Even though I'm gone I will always be here for you and our baby. I love you'Percy suddenly pictured out my mind saying those.

As i open my eyes i smile.

"I.. i will... i love you too it never change, you'll always be the guy I love most." I said as i face his tomb.

"Mommy! I'm hungry! let's go!" i heard my daughter shouted.

"ok! will be there!" me as i stood up and dried my tears.

"Our baby is hungry, i better go Percy..

Don't worry we're in good hands, Aldrin is a great guy too. I'll visit you soon, goodbye for now."

As I walk towards Aldrin and Scarlet I learned something.

Life must go on, I must let go of what had happened to move forward, for life, for Scarlet and for Aldrin who loves and accepted me and Scarlet whole heartedly. Percy May be gone but he's forever in my mind, heart and soul. He'll always be the man who flew my heart up to the moon. He will always be the man that will Fly Me To The Moon even if he's gone forever.

"let's go?" I asked as I stopped in-front of them.

Till we meet again sweetie.

You should Fly Me To The Moon on our next life.

?

I hope you enjoy.
