Tachibana Makoto x Reader: Meant To Be

Woo! This book reached 60k reads and 3k votes O.O :D I honestly feel like I should start ending the book, but I love writing this story so much and I know some of you guys don't want this to end. We'll just have to follow the wind and wherever it blows us, I guess. Enjoy chapter 53!

Your POV

It was finally the end of Makoto's school year and there was a huge party for the freshmen. In fact, time passed by so fast that we accomplished many things.

Makoto had gotten all the credits he needed to graduate into the second year of university. Makoto also got to volunteer at a swimming academy for little kids during the weekends, which he loved very much. As for Aiko, Ryan, and I, we released 2 covers on YouTube and they got pretty popular. A lot of our fans were shocked that we decided to stop modeling, but they were willing to support us through anything. Our names were once again famous and we were able to create our own original songs to put out in the world.

"Freshman year is finally over!" Makoto exclaimed and he plopped down on the couch with his head hung high. "That means two months of vacation!"

"Yeah!" I cheered. "You know what this means, we should get the gang back together and hang out like old times!"

"That's a great idea!" Makoto agreed. "We can get Nagisa, Rei, and the others to come to Tokyo to spend the vacation with us. I'm so glad I finally get a relax from school."

I sat beside Makoto on the couch as our pet kitten, Yuki jumped onto my lap. (A/N: Thank you La_La_Laila for the name! :D I'll probably do more things like this to get the readers involved)

"You're so cute," I mused as I stroked Yuki's snow-white fur and Makoto chuckled.

"You're cute too, (y/n)," Makoto whispered and he stroked my hair, causing me to purr like Yuki. I curled up next to Makoto and we started to talk about all the wondrous things we would do once we were reunited with our friends.

*Timeskip - Weeks Later* Your POV

"Do you see them?" I asked Makoto and he shook his head. Aiko, Ryan, Haru, Makoto, and I were at the airport ready to pick up Nagisa and the others, which they will be staying in Tokyo for a couple of weeks. Although there wasn't much room in our apartments for them to stay at, Uncle Tom rented hotel rooms for all of my friends.

"Mako-chan! Haru-chan!"

The 5 of us turned around and our faces lit up when we saw the blond boy running towards us. "Hi Nagisa! You guys too, Rei, Rin, and Gou!" I greeted and I ran to Gou for a hug.

"You came Rin?" Haru questioned and Rin nodded.

"Of course! To think, I expected you to be a little more excited since I came all the way from Australia to spend my break with you..."

"Where is Momo and the others?" Makoto asked and Nagisa frowned.

"Nitori and the Seijuros couldn't make it so only we came," Nagisa answered.

"I can't believe I'm actually meeting you guys in real life!!!" Gou squealed and Aiko and Ryan laughed. "I love seeing you guys on magazines and ever since you guys started music, I got even more obsessed!"

"Aww, thank you Gou. (y/n) has told us all about you too!" Aiko said and Gou's mouth widened.

"This is just too awesomeee!" Gou beamed. "I hope we will become good friends!"

"You can count on it," Ryan grinned and he threw his hand over Gou's shoulder. Gou immediately blushed and her eyes started sparkling.

"Muscles..." Gou mumbled and she turned around causing Ryan to jump up. "You must have wonderful muscles! Your biceps! LET ME SEE THEM PLEASEEEEE!!!"

We all laughed and I smiled happily to see all of us getting along. Vacation was a time to spend with all of our loved ones and that was what were going to do. Weeks full of fun with friends. Makoto, Aiko, Ryan, Haru, Gou, Rin, Nagisa, Rei, and... someone was missing.

"Did you forget me already?"

"Ah!" I flinched as I felt hands clutching onto my shoulder. I quickly turned around and everything got ten times better. "Sousuke, you came!"

"Yeah," Sousuke smiled and he ruffled my hair. "It's good to see you again and spend some time with my little sister."

"You're finally here," Rin grumbled and he shook his head. "You took forever in the bathroom."

"It was a long flight so I had to wash my face," Sousuke answered and I saw his hair was still wet. Rin looked at me and shrugged, but suddenly his attention darted to my left hand and his eyes widened.

"(y/n)... What is that on your finger..." Rin asked and I laughed.

"I guess you guys still don't know yet," I murmured and everyone turned their attention to me. "You see, Makoto and I are engaged," I announced and I held my precious ring high.

"You and Tachibana are WHAT?!" Sousuke yelled and Makoto stepped in to defend himself.

"I promise I will take good care of her! I will do everything to make her happy!" Makoto blurted out and Sousuke glared at me.

"Does Dad know about this?!"

"Well, I didn't exactly tell him yet-"

"Sis, I'm worried about you. You're still too young and you have no idea what challenges you're going to face in the world," Sousuke said and he was obviously not happy about our engagement.

"Don't be worried, Sousuke. You know I will be in good hands with Makoto by my side. We will be getting married and we will be starting our own family soon," I told him and Sousuke bit his lips.

"I don't know..."

"Oh come on, Sousuke. I would be really happy for (y/n) if I were you," Rin jumped in and Sousuke blinked. "Think about it, you might be an uncle and have a niece or nephew."

"Yeah!" Nagisa added. "Oh, Mako-chan, will you please let me be the uncle too or something?!"

"Kya! Can I be the aunt then?! This is so cool, you guys are engaged!" Gou squealed.

"This is just too beautiful to be happening," Rei cried and he began to wipe his tiny tears.

"Don't be so overprotective with (y/n)," Ryan said and Sousuke looked at him. 

"Ryan is right. Everything is gonna be just fine," Aiko agreed and she took my hand and Makoto's. "These two are meant to be!"

"Please support us," Makoto plead and Sousuke sighed.

"Alright," Sousuke said finally and Makoto smiled widely at me. "The thought of being an uncle does sound fun." 

I hope you guys enjoyed this chapter and I've decided that for the next couple of chapters, they will be focused on the vacation with Makoto, Haru, and the others! Please leave a vote/comment if you enjoyed this chapter and share it with everyone! I don't know why, but I love doing fluffs like these where I'm just going with the flow and not actually follow a specific plot line (even though there kinda is). Well, I just hope you guys are happy :D It's also boring to put my social media here every time, so I'm just gonna stop :p Remember, ~Free! Forever <3~
