“Joshyyyyyyy” you called following after the small brunette boy.

“How many times have I told you not to call me that?” He grumbled.

You watched as he climbed up the rickety wooden ladder of your tree house a confident smile plastered on his face when he made it to the top.

“You coming up?”

You nodded following in the older boys footsteps. Once you had reached the top you looked around at the books and puzzles scattered around you before panning over to Joshua. He leaned against the edge of what you believed was supposed to be a window. You watched as he stared around the neighborhood a content smile on his lips.

“I’m the king of the world!” He screamed spreading his arms out beside him.

You giggle before chiming in, “I’m queen of the world!”

You both fell to the floor in a fit of giggles. Toothy grins plastered on your youthful faces. You both sobered up quickly and looked at each other wistfully.

“I feel far too young for this level of responsibility,” you reasoned making Joshua laugh.

“No silly the king is the responsible one.” He said puffing out his scrawny chest.

“Josh, you’re 8, what do you know about running a kingdom?” You asked, placing your hands on your hips in a sassy manner.

He shrugged, “maybe I will know when I get older.”

You nodded. Both of you fell silent after that, your minds running wild with the thought of kings and queens and everything in between.

“Josh,” you whispered.

“Hmm?” He hummed looking over at you.

“You’re my best friend…” you trailed.

His eyes were set on you, begging you to continue.

“I don’t want to lose you,” you frowned.

He scooted close to you, wrapping an arm around your shoulder.

“You won’t lose me, I’m your king,” he giggled.

“Promise?” You asked sticking out a pinky.

“Promise,” he smiled linking his pinky with yours.

You thought back to all those years ago. The innocent bliss of a child’s mind and the promise of a future both of you had no idea of. Although you mostly stayed in contact you eventually faded away until your first day of middle school.

You scoured the courtyard, hoping to see a familiar face among the mass of pre teens surrounding you. Not one person looked familiar. The reality of a new school full of new people set in leaving you sad. You sat down on the nearest bench and pulled out a notebook. It was one of those Lisa Frank notebooks everyone loved. You opened it and began doodling with nothing in mind. It wasn’t until you were finished that you realized it was a set of crowns.

“Oh good now we have crowns,” said a voice

You looked up and Joshua stared down, brace faced smile on full display.

“Joshy” you squealed getting up to hug your best friend.

“I missed you.” He chuckled wrapping a pair of scrawny arms around you.

It was then you realized how squeaky his voice was and you let out a giggle.

“I missed you too,” you smiled pulling away from the hug.

“It’s been years…” he exaggerated.

You shook your head, “only 4.”

“4 years too long.” He smiled.

You nodded.

“Promise me you won’t leave… again,” he chuckled sticking out his hand.

“Yeah, I promise,” you said grabbing his outstretched hand.

“Like for real though,” he said with raised eyebrows.

“Oh my God yes Josh I promise I won’t leave,” you groaned with a cheesy grin plastered on your face, “But if something were to happen we always have the treehouse.”

“Ahh yes our castle,” he chuckled letting your hand go.

“Yeah and our kingdom of loyal citizens aka your dogs.”

He smiled at that making you smile as well.

“Just to make sure we’ll always be friends we have to promise that we’ll hang out in the treehouse at least one a year, deal.”

You nodded, “Deal!”

And that’s how things went through middle school and all throughout high school. Though your friend was solid through the years of school you had both endured it kind of faded after graduation. You both went separate ways, you going off to college and he moved away. It was years later that you found out he had moved to Korea and became a singer. You were happy for him as you watched him do what he loved and living his life, even though you were no longer a part of it.

The memories flowed through your mind as you walked. A sad smile sat on your lips as you realized just where you had ended up. The small brick house sat empty at the end of the Cul-de-sac. The “For Sale” sign that sat in the front yard made it obvious. You ventured into the surprisingly well-groomed backyard and over to the tree house. It still stood, high up in the large oak tree near the far left corner of the backyard. Managing to climb up the old rickety ladder, you sat looking over more of the memories you had made up here. You looked over the leave covered floorboards and up onto the walls where old drawings were placed. Your fingers trailed over the initials carved into the tree trunk. A smile graced your lips as you look at the makeshift heart carved around it. Your initials had been carved there since the first day of your friendship, the heart, however, was a newer addition.Joshua had placed the heart around it the day he told you he liked you, back in 8th grade.

8th grade, the year your friendship grew to something more only to be squashed by the hardships of high school. You sat there for awhile as you thought of more memories, like the first time you heard Joshua sing or the part your parent threw for your graduation. It was that party you realized how much you truly did love Joshua. He was your first love but you never got to tell him that because he left soon after you came to that realization. You were so enthralled with reminiscing that you didn’t hear someone climb up the ladder.

“Oh I’m sorry, I didn’t know anyone was up here.”

“You turned around to face the voice, “No it’s ok-”

You looked over scanning the brown haired boy. The same angelic eyes and pure smile.

“Josh,” you whispered.

“Y/N!” he smiled pulling you into a hug.

You fell silent as his arms wrapped around you. Your thoughts became jumbled and your word ceased to come out. There was nothing you could do except cry. Cry because he was here. Cry because you missed him. Cry because he didn’t forget about you.

He pulled away looking you in the eye. There was no amount of words that could express just how jumbled you felt right now staring back at him. His hands cupped your cheeks and his thumbs wiping away the tears as they fell.

“I’m sorry,” he whispered, his voice laced with regret.

“You didn’t forget about me,” you cried out.

“I could never,” he said shaking his head, wiping more tears from your eyes.

“Then why didn’t you tell me you were leaving?” You asked.

He shook his head, “ I just… couldn’t.”

“Why?”

“I- I”

“Why Joshua?” You asked your voice cracking when you said his name.

“I love you! It would have hurt too much to tell you goodbye when all I wanted to do was stay.”

You fell silent as his word sunk in.

“And now I know I shouldn’t have said that because now you’re not speaking.”

“I love you too,” you whispered.

“I’m so dumb like why would I say that what’s wrong with me?” Joshua went on staring at the floor obviously not listening to you.

“Hey!” You shout catching his attention.

He looked up at you with flushed cheeks and an awkward smile. You giggled as you looked over his soft features before placing your hands on his shoulders.

“Did you say something?”

“I said I love you too you dork,” you beamed.

His head shot up and his eyes widened as he scanned your face for any sign of insincerity.

“Really?”

“Yes for awhile now,” you chuckled playing with the collar of his shirt.

He nodded pulling you into his arms. He kissed your temple, his lips trailing down to your cheek before finally landing on your lips. They were soft as they meshed with your in a needy type of way. His arms wrapped around your back pulling you as close as possible as he deepened the kiss. You felt yourself smile into the kiss just before he pulled away. He left a soft kiss on the tip of your nose before letting you go.

“You don’t know how long I’ve been waiting to do that,” he chuckled.

“Damn you, Joshua Hong,” you smiled.

“Watch your mouth there is no foul language in this kingdom!” He said deepening his voice.

You shook your head as you realized just what he was doing.

“Oh yes I’m sorry my king,” you bowed.

“You are forgiven, but are hereby sentenced to receive a consignment of kisses,”

“Wha-” you started only to be stopped by Joshua peppering your face with kisses.

You giggled as his lips glided over your face, leaving sloppy kisses on every exposed piece of skin on your face.

“Joooooosh!” You squeaked pushing him off you.

“Yes, my queen?” He asked brows raised in anticipation.

You slapped his chest playfully to which he chuckled. He pulled you closer, setting you on his lap and you guys talked. Talked about the past, present, and what the future held.

But one thing was for certain he was Josh and you were Y/N, never one without the other. Now together and forever, king and queen.
