Not to many reviews now and days but, I'll just write it and see how it goes. Also, Thankies to Kumi-chan for the idea! This chapter is the first of many I decided to post so, hope you like! X3
This first chapter is after 'Watching her, Wanting her' and before they had a daughter and 'So Close, yet, So Far' to clear things up if you get confused.
Cherish
(Beat & Gum)
Stars lit up the raven black colored sky, along with the cresent shaped moon that shone over the bustling city of Tokyo. Below, the citizens of Tokyo were celebrating Valentine's Day with the people that they held dearest to them. Girls walked down the street, hand in hand with their boyfriends or just sitting down and being held in a close, warm embrace. Various restaurants were packed full with couples sharing a romantic dinner together. Every table sat two, except for one...

Twirling a strand of hair that was in her face, Gum sat dressed in a black dress, high heeled sandals, hair pulled into a bun, held together by two chopsticks, red lipstick, a heart shaped pendant and a light shade of lavender eyeshadow. Occasionaly she'd look around or just have a sip of water, while tapping her fingers against the table out of boredom.
"Where is he?...he promised to be here!"
Gum began to grow impatient with every minute that passed. She began to wonder if Beat had forgotten their date that he promised her a little while back.
"sigh...I wonder if work is truly on his mind all the time now...since he killed his father and took over Aka Tatsu, he's been working on getting things fixed...maybe...maybe he'll never show up..."
She shook the thoughts away and continued to wait for him to arrive and finish the date that he promised her.
"Beat..."
&&&
"Damnit, she must hate me right now!"
Shoving on his coat and shoes, Beat hastily began to comb back his hair and spray colongue on himself while making sure nothing bad could happen to him to make his night more of a living hell that he thought he already had so far.
"Um...sir, what about-"
"Screw it! I'm late and almost forgotten about her long enough for me to be considered 'a heartless bastard that cares more for money and drugs than the girl that matters the most in the world to him!' " Beat growled.
He picked up the white roses that he purchased earlier along with the diamond cake that he also bought. Before he jolted out the door so fast that no one could've possibly seen him leave, he turned around, took something out of his desk drawer and tucked it away into his pocket.
&&&
Growing tired of waiting, Gum stood up and picked up her purse, ready to leave home. Upon steping outside to begin looking for a taxi to take her home, she stopped when she heard someone call out to her.
"GUM! WAIT!"
Turning around, she was confronted by a tired Beat, who was gasping for air and trying to regain his breath.
"What? You suddenly realized that a girl was alone in a restaurant for two hours, waiting for the one she loves and realizing that she feels unwanted so she decided to leave?" Gum crossed her arms across her chest.
"Look, I'm sorry...I wanna make it up to you..." Beat held out a boquet of white roses and his box of diamond cake that he hid behind his back.
Gum looked shocked for a moment as he held her the flowers and handed her the box. Looking away, she was about to leave when he grabed her wrist, causing her to drop the flowers and cake.
"Wait, before you go..." Beat then knelt infront of her and pulled out from his pocket a small black box. Gum froze as she stood there, with another look of shock covering her face.
"Gum, will you be willing to spend the rest of your life with me?" Beat looked up at her, taking her hand and setting the ring on her finger.
Tears welled up in Gums eyes as she threw her arms around him once he stood up.
"Yes!" Gum cried in happiness and burried herself in his arms.
For a long while, they held eachother under the moon light and then shared a long passionate kiss.
