The Moon and The Ocean
There's probably going to be spelling mistakes, grammar errors and maybe it's even a confusing plot.
Word count: 8000+
Your days went by dreadfully slow, every moment that blinked was torturous. Your father, the king of some far away land had promised your hand in marriage; You was to be wed the moment you turned a women, your 18th birthday.
It was the day before, you paced back and forth your bedroom. Biting nervously on your nail, your hair lossley falling below your collar bone. Your feet tapped against the hard wood, your room feeling foreign to you. It was strang, marriage was always something you knew would eventually come. However, you hadn't expected your dear father to had given your hand in marriage at the young age of 6. Sickness swelled in your stomach, knowing full well that the man you was to marry was at least triple your age.
The bile rose, aching at your throat. Suddenly, the corset that was tied far too tight on your stomach began to burn, your eyes swelled with tears and you sobbed. You slide down your door, gasping as the tears consumed you whole.
Screaming wasn't something you wanted to do-but you needed to. It was mortifying, not being able to chose who you love. You stared at the floor, the magnificent marble of the ceiling soon catching your tearful eyes. You huff out, tears still falling down your cheeks.
Why couldn't you just be a happy husband-less princess?
But no, your father had screamed practically howled when you suggested a life without a man. He cried out that his own daughter, the hier to the throne had to marry and birth other heirs. You gritted your teeth, deciding this wasn't a battle to lose your head over. Literally.
Slowly, your spirits was brought back to life. Extremely slowly.
You stumbled to your feet, shuffling as the dress below your feet tripped you up ever so slighly.
The door infront of you swung open, in walking the princess Ortega herself. You holted in your stance, taken back by her sudden appearance. You bowed down, your dress once again catching under your feet and making you slip.
"What's with the formalities, Y/L/N?" The princess smiled up at you, offering you a dimpled filled sight. Your stomach swooned, your cheeks blazing a deep red. You too offered a sweet smile, shining your teeth at the women infront of you.
"To what do I owe this pleasure, princess?" You asked, a brow raised. The Ortega infront of you chose to ignore your question, she strode forward walking further into the room.
"I do love your room, it's the most glamorous sight I have been fortunate to see." The princess stated, sliding your closed blinds open. The sun broke through the dark curtains, seeping into your dim room. She smiled at the sight of the castle infront of her, the true beauty that was held within the country you would soon be ruling.
"Isn't it beautiful?" The brunette asked, swooning at the sight of such a kingdom. Your eyes couldn't tear away from the sight of her, she was flawless. You always thought Jenna Ortega was beautiful, naturally perfect; but her freckles was the thing that drove you to insanity.
"Positively." You mumbled, eyes preoccupied with how her eyes lit up, her dimples creating shallow pools on her cheeks. You sigh softly, running your hands up her back.
Sadness dipped into the atmosphere, the truth of what was to come tomorrow. Your birthday would come, your husband would show, you would be married, forever.
"Do you have to?" The princess' voice broke, her eyes no longer holding the sight of the kingdom but now the sight of someone who was about to lose the love of their life.
"I tried, Princess. I tried." The women infront of you gripped the curtains that were held in her hand. She gritted her teeth, not understanding the sudden formalities you had forced on her.
"Why won't you call me by my name?" She asked, turning around to you with an accusing look. You stumbled back, the harshness taking you by suprise.
"We love each other." She whispered, a single tear falling from her chocolate fountain of eyes. You gulped down your pride, your heart shattering with the look she gave you.
Jenna Marie Ortega had stole your heart, took it for herself. She was flawless, funny and most of all your bestfriend. When she confessed under the moonlit tree you honesly couldn't care about the repercussions that would take place for you, the princess who fell in love with another princess.
It wasn't talked about, nor was it a thing you thought plagued most people. You fell in love with a women, and that was bad. She told you it wasn't, she told you that running away would be fun; facing the raft of the people finding out their future queen was anything but perfrect; they'd kill you, murder you in broad daylight infront of hundreds to name and shame your kind.
She wiped away the single tear that treded down her plush cheek, her digit soon wiping away the tears that fell for you. You couldn't face her, too ashamed that you wasn't brave enough to stand up and speak about the love you felt for Princess Ortega.
"We loved each other." She then corrected, her eyes turning a dark cold. Her eyes no longer sparkled when they met yours, they burnt with anger. Princess Ortega already had a well established reputation, she was named the voice of the people.
She stood up against racism, single handedly helped thousands of people who was ruined due to poverty. She was a true princess, a selfless soon to be queen who stopped at nothing.
You however was scared, terrified of what your father would do. Murder? Conversion? Banishment? All of the thoughts riddled you at night.
Every kiss, every touch, every hushed whisper of I love you rang through your head as you stood defeated. You once again reach out and nibbled on your nail, scared of what Jenna would do.
"I love you-" she released a sigh at your confession, her eyes softening at once. She was hesitant, her finger grazing her dress as she reached forward. The princess you fell hopelessly and loyal for came rushing back into her face, a sigh leaving your parted lips.
"Run away with me, please."
The bubbly laugh that sprung out of your mouth was mocking, a pure sign that her request wasn't going to be taken into consideration. Princess Ortega huffed out her chest, hating nothing more than when someone would laugh in her face when she asked them something.
Princess Ortega ran a hand through her curled hair, her nose flaring ever so slightly. She glared at you like you was nothing but a toddler. Her eyes shot to kill, annoyed that she couldn't have what she wanted.
"Why are you laughing." She seethed, her bottom lip trapping in between her teeth. You shuffle on your feet, assuming she was joking. Your mouth fell open, soon closing when the women infront of you stormed closer to the window; in the utmost dramatics.
"I- I thought you was joking." You mumble out. She placed two hands against the pane window infront of her. She was yet to calm down, her breathing staggered and eyes trained to everything but you.
You stood awkwardly in the center of your room, hands gently brushing into your dress due to the build up of sweat. A sigh left your parted lips, the realisation dawning down on you.
"I'll be Queen tomorrow." You offer the brunette into a conversation starter. The Princess' shoulders tensed, her hands gripping into a fist.
"No. You'll be married tomorrow. You'll be some pawn in a game that was meant to defeat a women to ever rule a fucking kingdom without a stupid man beside her!" The women screamed, spit stuttering out of her hung open mouth as she did. Her eyes were blood shot by now, tears forming as anger swelled her short frame. Her fist clenched, so tightly the once was a nice olive colour turned white.
"Jenna-"
"No. Your father promised you to a man when you was 6! Y/N, you was a child and another man came along and picked you. The man you will marry is 50. He was a grown man when he decided you would be his queen." The princess screamed, howling like a banshee. No doubt the guards and maids outside your room heard the argument erupted, their eyes trained to the floor as Princess Ortega released every thought that ran through her mind.
"We can't just change the way the world functions, Princess. That isn't how this stupid game plays out. We had fun, we fell hopelessly in love and you became my world, the moon would speak to me at night- talk about the ocean and I would speak of you, your smile, your laughter, the way you always try to fight. I'm not a fighter, Jenna, I won't lose my kingdom, I won't lose my life because-" the words died, you was left gasping. Your breathing became irregual, struggling to see when the tears began to leak like acid out of your eyes; burning you as they did.
"Because you love a women?" The question lingered in the air, the tears fell from both of your eyes uncontrollably. A seemingly dramatic sight for those who was fortunate to never fall in love with someone who you couldn't have; but to those who knew the pain, felt the burden and the hollowness of how love could drag you into such a dark and unforgiving place. It was tourtous, a wound that never healed, a song that you wished you'd never heard.
"Isn't it."
"My dad-my dad would kill me, he'd have me hung within the hour. I won't die, Jenna. I would rather marry a man, birth kids that I was forced to have than die a pathetic death-I'm not-I'm not dying today, nor another." Your words slipped through your clenched jaw, tears no longer watering down your face; only anger stining into your heart.
"He would never hurt a hair on your head." The Princess infront of you pleaded, her hands drawing small circles on your upper arms. You tensed away from the touch, the mear presence of her burned, it was like a thick fog was casted over you; making you unable to breath.
"I'm scared, I'm scared every day of the week, every waking moment that I breath-the fears consuming, it hurts.-" you turned your back on her, walking towards the desk that was pressed against your wall.
"I refuse to live in fear. If- if I marry him tomorrow I'll have security, I will be queen and I will essentially rule the kingdom therefore the people." You slide into the cushioned chair, sliding down into the hard wooden back of the chair. The cold, and over all hurting sensation brought some sense of peace in your heart that was turning cold quicker than you'd wish.
"You think by ruling what happens to the kingdom you'll be able to make them love you? They love you already, Princess, I love you-" The Princess promised kneeling down infront of you in a disparate attempt of holding out to something that was slipping out of her fingers.
"Tell me you don't love me, tell me you'll marry that man tomorrow with no regret in your heart and ill leave-my father has places I can leave to, I have a safe space were I can be who I truly am without the force of society burning into my soul- I know you don't have that luxury, but just tell me you don't love me." The women's eyes cracked, water still leaking from them. She looked up at you, like a puppy that had just been scolded. Her bottom lip trembled, her teeth not doing much to prevent it. Your hand reach up and wiped away the tears that flowed for your love. Her brown eyes met yours, the chocolate puddle making your whole body set aflame.
It was magical; with one single look you knew, she knew. You two would forever be each others, a secret shared between two souls that feared the unknown. Every whisper, every kiss, every glance, every everything. She was the person you moured for in the darkness of the night, she was the melody that made your heart sing, she was the breath you took everyday in order to see her dimpled smile that sent your body into an up-roar of euphoria.
"Tell me, princess Y/L/N. Say it, say you don't love me, it's okay." The girl lied to herself. She lolled her head, leaning into the warm familiar touch of your hand on her body. You smile at the sight, loving how the princess infront of you always melted due to your touch.
"I cant." You whispered back, your throat burning and aching at the thought of admitting something that wasn't true. "You know that." She shuffled forward, her knees hitting the base of your foot. She leaned up, her nose brushing against yours.
"Because you love me?" She whispered, her breath brushing into your face. You huff, rolling your eyes at her. She giggled into your neck, soon pulling away just to her that confession of yours. "You love me." She no longer questioned it, fully knowing she had you today, tomorrow and forevermore.
"Indeed, Princess. I love you." She hummed, satisfied with the outcome of the heated argument that had just taken place a few moments ago. You lean further down, assuring she didn't strain her neck.
"Do you wish I would say it back?" The women teased, her lips ghosting over your own. Your tongue darted out, damping the skin below the muscle. She looked up into your eyes once again, her eye brow raised ever so slightly. The air blew harsher in a moment, the curtain brushing into your room further.
The wind blew, the scent of Princess Ortega's desired perfume hitting you. Your lungs collapsed, a heavy groan leaving your mouth. The tension brewed in the room, a heat forming on your cheeks as the women infront of you refused to press her lips into your own.
"Princess" you groaned, leaning closer almost to the point of falling. She shuffled further back, falling onto her elbows.
You followed after her, falling onto your own knees as your leaned over her. Your hair fell down your face, falling onto her own. She giggled at the sensation, the feeling of strands of hair against her skin making her laugh.
"May I?" You pressed a kiss to her cheek, assuring she was comfortable with a kiss. The Princess drew her hands to the back of your neck, biting her lip at you.
"You never have to ask, I am yours, my queen." She mumbled, pulling you that little bit closer. Finally, after a restless about of time your lips collided into a swoon worthy kiss.
With one sudden movement the door slammed open..
-----
Dearest Y/N,
It has been far too long since we last spoke, 4 years in fact. I miss our conversation, I miss your laugh, I miss the way we loved. I miss you the most, everything about you. Its nearly your twenty second birthday, I doubt you'll get my letter; since you haven't replied to the last four. I heard you've became a mother, I'm glad your happy, I'm glad you married someone you love. I hope Damien is okay, I hope your mother enjoyed my latest letter. I no longer hate you, but it appears you still hate me. I hope you still talk about me to the moon, as I do to the ocean.
Forever yours,
Your Jenna.
You walk around your kingdom, constantly wearing a smile full of happiness. Your husband Damien- not the man you was supposed to marry, no your father backed out after an argument with your mother. Instead, you was matched with Damien, he was a hopless romantic with a boy-ish grin. He had dazzling green eyes, something you didn't used to love. He had a charming gaze, long hair that you constantly had your fingers tangled in. You fell in love, hopelessly. You once only held love for one person in your life.
Damien held a tight hold on your hand, smiling as your eyes met. He leaned closer- your heart swooned- just like it did whenever you was with Princess Ortegan.
"You look beautiful my queen." The man spoke into your ear, leaving a kiss to your jaw. You giggled, ducking into your shoulders as you blushed. He smiled, your child- Marie- was hung to his hip. You had made it a tradisation ever since you got crowned; to walk through the village, speak to your people before the anniversary of your coronation.
"Mamma." The baby cooed reaching out to hold you, Damien offered you the child, carefully placing her into your hands. The crowd around you awed at the sight of the latest royal family that was caught infront of them. The baby held your hair, loosely brushing the stands in her small hands. She nuzzled her head into your neck, seemingly tired of all of the fuss.
"Are you tired, Marie?" Damien asked, his hand brushing your shoulder. The child nodded, humming as she lolled to sleep in your embrace. You smiled to yourself, carefully walking back to the Palace were you lived; hand in hand with Damien, your daughter tucked into your chest.
-----
"You cannot be serious?" Jenna told you, a smile begging to be played on her lips. You glared at her, chewing at your nails. Jenna immediately slapped away the hand, scolding you. You huff, hiding your blush as she brushed her fingers through your hair.
"My queen." She cooed, her breath brushing over your ear. You giggled, it had just been your coronation, you was officially a queen- without a king.
"I am being serious." You chuckle, feeling Jenna press feather light kisses to your cheek. She hummed, not really paying any attention to what you was saying. You push her away ever so slightly, trying to pry yourself away from her entoxicating lips.
"You'll be a queen without a king?" She once again asked, repeating herself. You nod, exited for what your future holds. She squealed, knowing no one would be able to take you away from her.
"Are you okay my queen?" Your maid- Eliza- asked with worry in her eyes. She was the women who interrupted yours and Princess Ortegas more intimate moments. The younger women looked at you, preparing herself to fetch whatever you desired.
"Why didn't you tell." You whisper to her. You was sat on your couch, which was placed in the drawing room. She looked at you confusing, acting like you was a make-shift medus and had grown snake hair.
"The day before my 18th birthday, you walked in on me kissing Princess Ortega. Why didn't you tell me father?" You finally looked her in the eyes, the women stared at you for a moment. The girl wasn't much younger than you, maybe 21. She watched as your eyes became an ocean, as your voice swelled with tears.
"Because I knew all along, your majesty. I knew you loved Princess Ortega, I- it was just so obvious." The girl explained, her own eyes darting with sadness. You glare at the floor, thinking maybe if you stared hard enough It would create a black whole for you to fall into.
"Was we really that blinded?" You whisper, your words dying as your voice finally gave up-
"Dance with me!" Princess ortega demanded. The rain danced around the two of you, the ocean above you screaming down at the two of you. Jenna began to spin, twirling her drenched dressed around her legs. She stared at you, she reached her finger out and pried it back; urging you to give in. It had only been a few weeks since becoming Queen- you'd already been granted a break. You ran with the princess towards an old cabin on the out skirts of your kingdom, where you could be free.
The rain didn't stop, it began to pour more harshly if anything. Slamming into the dirt below your feet, the trees bent back and forth the wind causing such a fuss.
"In this weather?" You ask, pointing out the obvious problem with the literal sea pouring on you. The Princess infront of you however giggled, running over to you.
Her hands gripped your waist, her baby hairs covering her perfect face. Her lips curved into a smile, her eyes a sweet brown. She giggled once again, tilting her head to meet your lips.
You acted quick, Cupping her chilled cheeks and swayed with her. Your lips never left hers, the smell of her was consuming- fresh maple trees, with a hint of strawberries. Her breath lingered with all different types of fruits, most prominent one being raspberries.
The rain some how began to bleed faster, mocking your act of love as thunder stuck behind you. A near by tree was stricken down due to the bolt.
You and Jenna gasp into each others mouths, but that didn't pry you two apart. You carried on to dance, her fingers brushing through your hair.
"Will you love me forever?" The brunette infront of you shouted over the storm that carried on to block at every bad thought.
"Beyound forever."
Your rage seethed through your veins, your anger swolling you whole as you paced back and forth your garden. Marie was sat down on the blanket, nicely placed by Eliza. Your hands clutched unopened letters, tears burned down your cheek.
"My dear, how has your evening been?" Your husand, the love of your life, the father to your child ask. He walked up to you, wearing smart attir as he gripped your jaw; placing a forced kiss opon your lips.
"What are these?" You thrusted the letters into his open hands. He cupped the paper, shock clearly written on his face. He clenched the one letter, ripping it in half. A sudden side to the man you'd married bled through his transparent persona.
"How dare you." The man screamed, his cheeks flaming red. The letters were tucked into his closet, covered in old clothes he no longer wanted to wear.
"How dare I?" You shouted back, howling as the thought of him betraying you was still hot in your brain. Eliza quickly picked up the little girl that was sat on the green grass, walking off with your daughter.
"I am your king, you had no right to accuse me of such things." The man matched your anger, even daring to strike a swelling smack to your cheek. The smack stung, sizzling with heat as he retracked his hand.
"You're measly the man I married, the person I decided to allow to share the same bed as I. You have no rights to struck me, nor call yourself king." You seeth back. You decided to ignore the throbbing pain that ached your cheek. Damien stumbled back, staring at the floor in guilt.
"She is your past." He expressed, his words coming out unsure, they sounded more like an excuse than anything. You gripped your dress, your knuckles turning white. You knew he wasn't acting normally, he was never an aggressive man.
"She is my world. She is the reason I live, she's the poison in my oxygen, she's the ache in my heart. I loved her the moment i met her, I'll love her until the moment I die. She's with me everywhere I go, she's the shadow I chase when im alone. She's my queen, Princess Ortega is a better person than you'll ever be." You screamed, every thought, ever passing momemts; Princess Ortega was always there. She was your everything, and you couldn't bear the thought of someone keeping you away from her.
"She left you." Damien jolted your memory, remembering the night that still jolted you awake in the crack of dawn.
Damien had swept you off your feet, his stupidly dumb green eyes enchanted you to your very soul. Jenna hated him, absolute despised the man to his core. You didnt love him, he was just a friend.
Your pinky fingers were locked, walking around the ball. The close proximity of the two of you made your locked hands evaporate among the silk of your dress. She flashed you a prize winning smile, offering a hushed "you look amazing."
Your foot trembled, pushing you over ever so slightly. Your whole body lunged forward, Jenna went to reach for you but Damien was already there. He brushed your hair out of the way, flashing his stupidly cheesy grin towards you.
"Are you okay princess?" With one glance Princess Ortega had ripped herself away from you and found herself sat in between her own family.
Throughout the ball you offered her small waves, senting your smile her way. She didn't look at you once, she didn't mutter a single word to you that entire night. When Damien had worked up the courage to ask you to dance you immediately said no.
He nodded, his smile falling. Princess ortega watched, then she watched how you grabbing his hand. You pulled him to the center of the room, dancing along with the violen and cello.
Her face twisted, heat pooling in her chest. Her fingers fiddled with the hem of her dress, debating whether to leave.
"Sister, have you decided whether you'll join me?" The older Ortega boy asked, smiling apon his sister. Jenna looked at him confused, unsure of what he was implying.
"My trip to Europe, the invitation has been extending to my favourite sister." The man was met with a swift punch to his shoulder by his youngest sister. Jenna giggled sending one last look your way; You was dancing, freely without any fear. His hands were politely resting on your sides, still offering you his best smile he could muster. You laughed every time he cracked a joke, after Jenna left for Europe without another word, you accidentally fell in love.
-----
Your feet moved faster than your brain, your heart beat raced. Your eyes scattered around the familiar sight, proudly standing infront of you was Ortega manner. Your fist clamped together, knocking formally.
The old man smiled apon seeing you- randy- he offered you into the house. The warmness of a full house washed over your body, you smiled to nothing. The loudness of clattering and someone talking caught your attention, you dart towards the sound assuming it was your princess.
"Princess Y/L/N?" Mrs Ortega stumbled seeing your sudden appearance. You furrow your eyebrows at her sudden attitude, she glared at the floor. Her voice was stuck, her chest tight with the realisation of what her daughter did.
"She didn't tell you?" Your heart stopped, you could have swore you saw the grim reaper himself. Your eyes grew fuzzy as the older women explained everything. Your chest was tight, anxiety filled your heart. Unbeknownst to you, the Ortega family was fully aware of yours and their middle child's affair.
"She left me?" You gasped out, tears leaking from the source of yours eyes. She embraced you, held you as you screamed for your lost love. The news you had begged to share with Jenna died in your mind, becoming a passing thought
She had left, she has left. She was in some third world country saving the poor, of course she was. You gulped down every tear you pleaded to shed. You somehow stumbled to your feet, sending your goodbyes to Mrs Ortaga.
You fumbled with your foot, falling head first. A strong, muscular hand caught you. The man chuckled, the same man you had dance with all night.
"Prince, h-how are you?"  He smiled down at you, lifting you up onto your own feet. You stood awkwardly on the pathway, staring up at the man.
"We must stop meeting like this, Miss Y/L/N." He spoke softly, you nod. If Princess Ortega hadn't have left she would have known about Damien, and how he had agreed to marry you so you and Jenna could forever be together. He shrugged a hand through his hair, awaiting your answer.
"She left." Your heart turned cold. Your eyes no longer felt the need to burn for someone who couldn't even handle one simple dance, you burned for her and she left. His face dropped, riddled with confusion.
"Why? I- I thought she loved you.." He stoked the patch of beard he had under his chin, a puzzled look on his face. You hum, not really caring to waste your breath on someone who clearly didn't care for you.
"I guess she didn't."
"Your highness!" Eliza called out, her hands clutching a bag that you had made a few moments ago. You stormed into your daughters room, collecting all the essentials you'd need to get through the days with a toddle. Marie was none the wiser, happily hung around your neck as you darted around her room.
"Help me, Eliza, I can't stay with that man." You seethed, the memory of you smacking him back and you demanding a separation still hot in your mind. She nodded, stumbling forward in hopes to grap your attention.
"When will you meet her?" Your head whipped towards the question, daggers leaving your eyes and piercing the women infront of you. You stood silent, assuming she had  betrayed you too.
"You knew?"
"I- I, I assume Princess Ortega is back? That's why he was so mad? Or has he always been violent?" You release a shaken sigh, dropping your head. Your daughter began to fuss, demanding to be put down. You was scared, you couldn't stay with Damien but you also couldn't leave your daughter.
"Here." Eliza offered her help, picking up your daughter and began to play dolls with the little girl that resembled you, shockingly.
You nod, everything seeming too fast for your brain to catch on to. Your hands thrashed through Marie's things, your feet trodded across the hall towards your bedroom. You stomed around; gathering clothes, Letters, Information you'd need.
Damien was no where to be found, probably at the better end of a whiskey bottle. You found it easier that way, thanking his alcoholic demands for having such a hold on him.
"May I ask you something?" Eliza sheepishly asked, packing the final bag into the trunk of your carriage.
"Yes?"
There was a pause, an undeniable awkwardness within the cramped space. She bit her lip, nibbling ever so slightly on the skin.
"Is she worth it?"
Not even skipping a beat, not even batting an eyelash you nodded, "Yes."
Jenna was worth every tear you shed, every ache you felt, every smile you held, every laughter that bubbled out of your throat. She was the root to everything in your life, whether that be bad or good. She was always behind everything.
You hadn't read the letters yet. He had torn one, one that you hadn't had the knowledge of reading. You knew, whatever she wrote she wrote it for a reason.
"Goodbye, Queen."
"Mother has written, do you wish to know what for?" Jacob, Jenna's older brother asked whilst walking into the drawing room. Jenna hummed, her hands flipping through different pages of her book.
"Queen Y/L/N, didn't know you was leaving." The boys tone was scolding and accusing. Jenna shrank in on herself, her lip between her teeth.
"She fell out of love." She mumbled into her palm, knowing that was only half true. However it wasnt at all true.
"That's not what our mother declares." Jacob carried on. Jenna didn't give the boy the satisfaction of knowing she was dying to know what their mother had written, word for word.
"She chose him."
"She danced with him, that wasn't her declaring her undying love for that fool." Jacob retorted, throwing the paper towards his younger sister. "Shes gone mad without you."
The carriage ride was exhausting, you dreaded seeing your father. He was a strong man that turned sour with his age, he was mean and wouldn't have even cared if you told him the truth; that your husband turned abusive.
Your foot nervously bounced up and down, debating whether to read the letters, they were hundreds and you needed to read them eventually.
Tears openly flowed out of Princess Ortega's eyes, clutching the letter her mother wrote a few days prior. It had been 3 months since leaving, it was hard not to demand her brother to return home. But she suffered through the pain, hoping eventually she'd find a sense of belong; a sense she'd only even found in the arms of you.
The words bled together, her hands tearing the piece of paper into shreds.
Queen y/l/n is engaged, to be wed next week in the halls of belle. Damien was the man's name, charming, she does seem happy, Jenna-
Jenna couldn't bear to read more, her heart already broke and stomped on atleast 12 times already.
"Y/N, we've missed you." Your mother cooed, holding Marie in her hands. The baby giggled, nibbling on her pacifier. She had been teething terribly bad, to the point of tears each and every night.
"Mother, could I trouble you, I need a piece of paper and pen." Your mother nodded, asking her own maid to fetch the demanded things. You sat yourself down on your desk, the same desk that Princess ortega would write random love poems to you, the same desk were you'd kiss each night before she'd have to leave-
My dearest Jenna,
Loving you was probably the most easiest things I'd ever do in my short liven life. I loved you, I loved you until it psychically hurt. Every moon lit date, every dance among the ocean, every song you declared was ours, I always found myself loving you. But,
My love was always not taken serious by you, the constant recurrence I had to send your way just for us to have a normal day was exhausting. You was mess, a mess that I wanted. I danced with Damien because he looked so sad, I laughed at his joke because I was being polite, I stayed with him all night because we had a plan. I was going to marry him but love you, instead you decided to leave me. You left me, with nothing but empty space. I don't forgive you, I don't hate you either. Your the light in my tunnel, the air in my lungs and most famously; The Ocean to my Moon.
Damien stole your letters, I left him. He knew, I think he knew, I'd always love you no matter what.
I loved you the most when you was dancing with the rain singing without shame, I loved you when you broke down in my arms the day I told you I was marrying that old man. I never hated you, because hate was too close to love. I just stopped everything, I went numb because I'd rather lose myself than live with a life were there was no jenna.
I can only hope that we will meet again, maybe under a moon lit night were we dance once again. I'd like to kiss you before i die, maybe express how much I loved you even though you left. But I won't let myself dream anymore, it's painful. I have a daughter now, Her names Marie. I guess deep down i knew you was always the love of my life, my soul mate. She's named after you because I wanted her to be beautiful, to be strong and a fighter just like the women who was supposed to be her mother. I'll leave my seemingly long letter with that, I hope you get this my princess.
I'll love you beyond forever.
Sincerely, yours Y/N.
Jenna found it oddly surreal walking back into her childhood home. The colours were still a warm green, the lights still hung on the walls. Her younger siblings running freely among the grass outside the manner, her nieces and nephews making baby noises as her older sister chats with their mother.
She walked further into the home, sadness dwelling on her due to the fact no one noticed her appearance; she'd been gone for 4 years. Her feet softly padded into the floor, accompanying her mother as she stood on the lawn.
"Evening, Mother." She greeted the older women, smiling as the sun blared unforgiving at them. It was like the weather was controlled by Yours and Jenna's love, when the Sun was out the two of you couldn't have been further apart, when the rain poured down on the earth the two of you was probably found kissing somewhere no one would found you.
"Jenna!" The women gasped, embracing her daughter into a bone crushing hug. The two shared a few moments together, before the nagging need to find out why her daughter had suddenly came home.
"I love the welcome intrusion, but why are you here Jenna?"
Jenna wrote madly on the pieces of paper infront of her, scribbling down every ounce of love that she felt for you. Her brother watched, a scowl on his face.
"Jenna, what on earth are you doing?" The man asked, walking towards his sister in hopes to read what she was writing. The girl shooked away from him, hissing at the thought anyone but you would read what she needed to say.
"Writing."
Jenna needed to hear of you, she needed to know you was okay and that you still felt atleast something for her. She wrote every pained thought she felt, every sadned question that aired her brain. She knew you was marrying Damien, she knew you wasn't hers anymore. But still, the thought of you forgetting her was enough to drive her into insanity.
Word after word, page turned into pages until she finally had a book.
Jenna stared at her mother's question, she found herself wearing a smile mixed with blush.
"Queen Y/L/N, replied."
————–
Eliza carefully tied the lace on your corset. The annual ball was today, the anniversary of your coronation. You impatiently bounced your left foot, chewing on your nail like you did many years prior. But things were different. Next to you, as beautiful as ever stood your daughter. And there wasn't no Jenna to push away your bad habits.
"I'm dreadfully tired." You mumbled, hoping you could excuse yourself early to the party. Even though you was still well into your youth, days always seemed to drag. Eliza hummed, her hands dragging once up your whole back before leaving the corset with that.
The dress was soon fitted, sliding down your frame. You smiled at yourself, seeing what stood infront of the mirror. You may not have achieved much in your life, but you was sure as hell proud to be able to call Maria your daughter. She was playing quietly in the corner of your bedroom, fiddling with letters Princess Ortega made you when you two were only girls.
"All done, Queen."
—————
As always, your night was dreadfully long. It was brain numbing to be witness of the true mindless People of your country. The Ortega family arrived late, Jenna a no show like the current balls your family had held.
You sometimes caught yourself wondering if Europe was all it seemed to be. Surely it wasn't that interesting to invest years of your life to travel it.
In your pitiful state, you felt the damness of the atmosphere shift; water began to positively pour down into your kingdom, drouding out all thought that casting into your soured mind. Jenna getting lost during the rain, forgetting every pained image you had of her. Your feet dangled off the edge of the hill, below it was a drop worthy enough to kill. You often spent your evenings casted to witness the wildlife that traveled through the vally like state. Along side the hill stood a tree, the same tree that held many feelings in your heart.
Your bear feet had trickles of water droplets falling off them, along with the edge of your jaw and tip of your nose. It was enough to bring a mad person to sanity, the feeling of rain falling onto your tensed shoulders.
Everything was corrupted with the sound of the rain, the weather suddenly growing harsh and unforgiven with each moment you stayed painfully unaware of the brunette who chased down each and every one of your staff in hopes to find your whereabouts.
"Have you seen the Queen?" Jenna breathed out, her pants clouding her speech ever so slightly. The man that cooked you dinner shrugged, not really caring for the women infront of him. A strained groan left the princesses lips, clutching her hands together with a sob. You hadn't realised the time that drifted, it had been two hours since you left your own party.
Jenna left the kitchen, sprinting to your bedroom. Funny enough, almost like time had stopped all together when Jenna entered your bedroom eveything was the same. Everything in the same place, the only different was the sleeping girl that laid in the mist of your pillows and blankets.
Jenna gasped, her heart exploding. She was identical to you when you was a just a child, her hair scattered across the pillow and cheeky plushed.
"Princess Ortega" Eliza bumped chest with the frantic girl infront of her. Jenna was untameble, her eyes wide like a serial killer. She panted, her lungs seizing at the thought of being too late.
"Where- where is she? Where's my Y/N?" Your name rolled off her tongue, like it was meant to be. She wasn't ashamed to show her face anymore, she wasn't paralysed with crippling jealousy like she used to be. She wanted what's rightfully herself, she came for a reason and every moment of her passing years dragged all due to one reason. You was no where to be seen, you became a stranger and she'd be damned if your love story didn't end with the two of you hopefully in love with no fear in your heart and a house fill of laughter.
"Shes- she never told me. She said she's leaving to her safe space." Eliza stuttered, shifting on her feet at the sudden desperation that stormed Jenna's features.
Jenna didn't reply, she hurried off. Her feet slammed, claiming down onto the carpeted wooden floor, she barged past people ignoring their cries of ignorance. They didn't know why princess Ortega was harshly running through the halls, nor why she was in such a panic.
Jenna finally stumbled towards the tree where you and her first kissed. You two was 16, she had finally admit her deepest secret that led to you sharing yours.
"I..I think I'm in love you." Jenna sheepishly admit, her face a blushing mess. The moon lit night did wonders for her beauty, the moon truly reflection the astonishing view she could be. You was so caught up with her freckled nose that you almost forgot to reply.
Your confession was caught in your lips. Jenna was sat infront of you, waiting for an answer. She was smiling, almost like she knew you was desperately in love with her too. It was obvious, the love you two shared wasn't a secret. It was painfully clear to anyone with a sense of mind, no friends long for one another like you and jenna did.
"I know I love you Jenna. There isn't a doubt in my mine, you're my ocean." Confidence washed over you, your chest growing in size with the amount of oxygen you took in as you breathe.
Jenna giggled, her hand dragging closer to your cheek. She cupped your face ever so slightly, placing the other on the floor to stabilise her. She leaned forward, scared to fully commit the sin she wanted to destroy.
"Kiss me."
The way Jenna ran towards the moon lit tree was supernatural, she didn't stop when a seizing pain took over her lower stomach. She treded through the untamed grass, storming faster when she saw the faint sign of someone sitting down by the hill.
"Y/N!" Jenna howled, her words echoing through the air. She shuffled, huffing out in pain when the shadow didn't turn around. Biting down on her lip she ran faster, her thighs burning and the bottom of her dress tearing.
"Y/N!" The grass sqelched below her, the mud splattered up the better half of her legs. She ignored the uncomfortable feeling off the thick muck intruding her skin, knowing you was only a few minutes away.
Just as God frowned down on the two of you, the weather began to grow worse. God upping his game, the rain began to pound, slamming into Jenna's skin leaving harsh marks in result. The rain turned into thick clumps of ice, then a shed of hailstones. A sharp enough peice of ice slashed the cheek of Jenna, she hissed holding the skin as blood began to trickle down her flesh.
"Queen!"
Thunder crashed down on the tree standing right beside you. Your body jolted awake, the lighting scaring the life out of you. Your hand clamped around the fabric around your chest, breathing becoming labored and strained.
"Holy-" Your whole body was forced side ways, your arms swinging ever so slightly. You gasped, someone coming into contact with your face. The strangers hands cupped your cheeks, forcing you to look at them.
Standing infront of you, as beautiful as ever stood your Jenna. She was wearing a shy smile, her hair stuck to her head. The water droplets dribble down her face, leaving her a mess that sent yout into a coma. She was ethereal, extremely elegant.
The years you'd spent apart felt like nothing anymore, like the gap in history was drawn out of proportion and it hadn't been four years but a mear few days. Jenna looked exactly the same, maybe even gain more worshipable freckles that would add to your on going count.
"Princess Ortega-" Your words were muffled, Jenna's lips crashing into yours. The lack of people around left the both of you reckless, a slave to the desire that drilled into your bodies at the lack of being near each other in far too long.
"You once promised me that you'd love me forever." Jenna gasped, the lack of air still evident with her struggle with breathing. Her hand never left your face, determined to keep you as close as possible.
"I believe I said beyond forever." You reminded her, smiling with the same cocky over confident smirk that made Jenna want to rip your head off. Instead of rolling her eyes, slapping your arm or even straight up leaving like she once did after seeing the sight she pulling you closer to her. Her lips crashed into yourself, your hands finally coming to life to hold her face too.
"Do you intend to keep your promise?" Jenna asked, pulling away from your lips. A stern groan left yours, a plead of objection.
"Only if you intend to extend the same sentiment my way."
She smiled, both of you giggling like it was second nature. The weather was yet to seize, only growing more fearful.
"I'll love you until humanity crumbles and the sun explodes into nothing."
The Ocean will always have its Moon. And you will always have your Jenna

First love
None of this is real <obviously> this is just a work of fiction.
This is my first post on here, I used write on wattpad!
Warnings: Domestic Abuse, Swearing, mature language, kissing(?) There may be more, im not sure.
Tumblr media
The Moon and The Ocean
There's probably going to be spelling mistakes, grammar errors and maybe it's even a confusing plot.
Word count: 8000+
Your days went by dreadfully slow, every moment that blinked was torturous. Your father, the king of some far away land had promised your hand in marriage; You was to be wed the moment you turned a women, your 18th birthday.
It was the day before, you paced back and forth your bedroom. Biting nervously on your nail, your hair lossley falling below your collar bone. Your feet tapped against the hard wood, your room feeling foreign to you. It was strang, marriage was always something you knew would eventually come. However, you hadn't expected your dear father to had given your hand in marriage at the young age of 6. Sickness swelled in your stomach, knowing full well that the man you was to marry was at least triple your age.
The bile rose, aching at your throat. Suddenly, the corset that was tied far too tight on your stomach began to burn, your eyes swelled with tears and you sobbed. You slide down your door, gasping as the tears consumed you whole.
Screaming wasn't something you wanted to do-but you needed to. It was mortifying, not being able to chose who you love. You stared at the floor, the magnificent marble of the ceiling soon catching your tearful eyes. You huff out, tears still falling down your cheeks.
Why couldn't you just be a happy husband-less princess?
But no, your father had screamed practically howled when you suggested a life without a man. He cried out that his own daughter, the hier to the throne had to marry and birth other heirs. You gritted your teeth, deciding this wasn't a battle to lose your head over. Literally.
Slowly, your spirits was brought back to life. Extremely slowly.
You stumbled to your feet, shuffling as the dress below your feet tripped you up ever so slighly.
The door infront of you swung open, in walking the princess Ortega herself. You holted in your stance, taken back by her sudden appearance. You bowed down, your dress once again catching under your feet and making you slip.
"What's with the formalities, Y/L/N?" The princess smiled up at you, offering you a dimpled filled sight. Your stomach swooned, your cheeks blazing a deep red. You too offered a sweet smile, shining your teeth at the women infront of you.
"To what do I owe this pleasure, princess?" You asked, a brow raised. The Ortega infront of you chose to ignore your question, she strode forward walking further into the room.
"I do love your room, it's the most glamorous sight I have been fortunate to see." The princess stated, sliding your closed blinds open. The sun broke through the dark curtains, seeping into your dim room. She smiled at the sight of the castle infront of her, the true beauty that was held within the country you would soon be ruling.
"Isn't it beautiful?" The brunette asked, swooning at the sight of such a kingdom. Your eyes couldn't tear away from the sight of her, she was flawless. You always thought Jenna Ortega was beautiful, naturally perfect; but her freckles was the thing that drove you to insanity.
"Positively." You mumbled, eyes preoccupied with how her eyes lit up, her dimples creating shallow pools on her cheeks. You sigh softly, running your hands up her back.
Sadness dipped into the atmosphere, the truth of what was to come tomorrow. Your birthday would come, your husband would show, you would be married, forever.
"Do you have to?" The princess' voice broke, her eyes no longer holding the sight of the kingdom but now the sight of someone who was about to lose the love of their life.
"I tried, Princess. I tried." The women infront of you gripped the curtains that were held in her hand. She gritted her teeth, not understanding the sudden formalities you had forced on her.
"Why won't you call me by my name?" She asked, turning around to you with an accusing look. You stumbled back, the harshness taking you by suprise.
"We love each other." She whispered, a single tear falling from her chocolate fountain of eyes. You gulped down your pride, your heart shattering with the look she gave you.
Jenna Marie Ortega had stole your heart, took it for herself. She was flawless, funny and most of all your bestfriend. When she confessed under the moonlit tree you honesly couldn't care about the repercussions that would take place for you, the princess who fell in love with another princess.
It wasn't talked about, nor was it a thing you thought plagued most people. You fell in love with a women, and that was bad. She told you it wasn't, she told you that running away would be fun; facing the raft of the people finding out their future queen was anything but perfrect; they'd kill you, murder you in broad daylight infront of hundreds to name and shame your kind.
She wiped away the single tear that treded down her plush cheek, her digit soon wiping away the tears that fell for you. You couldn't face her, too ashamed that you wasn't brave enough to stand up and speak about the love you felt for Princess Ortega.
"We loved each other." She then corrected, her eyes turning a dark cold. Her eyes no longer sparkled when they met yours, they burnt with anger. Princess Ortega already had a well established reputation, she was named the voice of the people.
She stood up against racism, single handedly helped thousands of people who was ruined due to poverty. She was a true princess, a selfless soon to be queen who stopped at nothing.
You however was scared, terrified of what your father would do. Murder? Conversion? Banishment? All of the thoughts riddled you at night.
Every kiss, every touch, every hushed whisper of I love you rang through your head as you stood defeated. You once again reach out and nibbled on your nail, scared of what Jenna would do.
"I love you-" she released a sigh at your confession, her eyes softening at once. She was hesitant, her finger grazing her dress as she reached forward. The princess you fell hopelessly and loyal for came rushing back into her face, a sigh leaving your parted lips.
"Run away with me, please."
The bubbly laugh that sprung out of your mouth was mocking, a pure sign that her request wasn't going to be taken into consideration. Princess Ortega huffed out her chest, hating nothing more than when someone would laugh in her face when she asked them something.
Princess Ortega ran a hand through her curled hair, her nose flaring ever so slightly. She glared at you like you was nothing but a toddler. Her eyes shot to kill, annoyed that she couldn't have what she wanted.
"Why are you laughing." She seethed, her bottom lip trapping in between her teeth. You shuffle on your feet, assuming she was joking. Your mouth fell open, soon closing when the women infront of you stormed closer to the window; in the utmost dramatics.
"I- I thought you was joking." You mumble out. She placed two hands against the pane window infront of her. She was yet to calm down, her breathing staggered and eyes trained to everything but you.
You stood awkwardly in the center of your room, hands gently brushing into your dress due to the build up of sweat. A sigh left your parted lips, the realisation dawning down on you.
"I'll be Queen tomorrow." You offer the brunette into a conversation starter. The Princess' shoulders tensed, her hands gripping into a fist.
"No. You'll be married tomorrow. You'll be some pawn in a game that was meant to defeat a women to ever rule a fucking kingdom without a stupid man beside her!" The women screamed, spit stuttering out of her hung open mouth as she did. Her eyes were blood shot by now, tears forming as anger swelled her short frame. Her fist clenched, so tightly the once was a nice olive colour turned white.
"Jenna-"
"No. Your father promised you to a man when you was 6! Y/N, you was a child and another man came along and picked you. The man you will marry is 50. He was a grown man when he decided you would be his queen." The princess screamed, howling like a banshee. No doubt the guards and maids outside your room heard the argument erupted, their eyes trained to the floor as Princess Ortega released every thought that ran through her mind.
"We can't just change the way the world functions, Princess. That isn't how this stupid game plays out. We had fun, we fell hopelessly in love and you became my world, the moon would speak to me at night- talk about the ocean and I would speak of you, your smile, your laughter, the way you always try to fight. I'm not a fighter, Jenna, I won't lose my kingdom, I won't lose my life because-" the words died, you was left gasping. Your breathing became irregual, struggling to see when the tears began to leak like acid out of your eyes; burning you as they did.
"Because you love a women?" The question lingered in the air, the tears fell from both of your eyes uncontrollably. A seemingly dramatic sight for those who was fortunate to never fall in love with someone who you couldn't have; but to those who knew the pain, felt the burden and the hollowness of how love could drag you into such a dark and unforgiving place. It was tourtous, a wound that never healed, a song that you wished you'd never heard.
"Isn't it."
"My dad-my dad would kill me, he'd have me hung within the hour. I won't die, Jenna. I would rather marry a man, birth kids that I was forced to have than die a pathetic death-I'm not-I'm not dying today, nor another." Your words slipped through your clenched jaw, tears no longer watering down your face; only anger stining into your heart.
"He would never hurt a hair on your head." The Princess infront of you pleaded, her hands drawing small circles on your upper arms. You tensed away from the touch, the mear presence of her burned, it was like a thick fog was casted over you; making you unable to breath.
"I'm scared, I'm scared every day of the week, every waking moment that I breath-the fears consuming, it hurts.-" you turned your back on her, walking towards the desk that was pressed against your wall.
"I refuse to live in fear. If- if I marry him tomorrow I'll have security, I will be queen and I will essentially rule the kingdom therefore the people." You slide into the cushioned chair, sliding down into the hard wooden back of the chair. The cold, and over all hurting sensation brought some sense of peace in your heart that was turning cold quicker than you'd wish.
"You think by ruling what happens to the kingdom you'll be able to make them love you? They love you already, Princess, I love you-" The Princess promised kneeling down infront of you in a disparate attempt of holding out to something that was slipping out of her fingers.
"Tell me you don't love me, tell me you'll marry that man tomorrow with no regret in your heart and ill leave-my father has places I can leave to, I have a safe space were I can be who I truly am without the force of society burning into my soul- I know you don't have that luxury, but just tell me you don't love me." The women's eyes cracked, water still leaking from them. She looked up at you, like a puppy that had just been scolded. Her bottom lip trembled, her teeth not doing much to prevent it. Your hand reach up and wiped away the tears that flowed for your love. Her brown eyes met yours, the chocolate puddle making your whole body set aflame.
It was magical; with one single look you knew, she knew. You two would forever be each others, a secret shared between two souls that feared the unknown. Every whisper, every kiss, every glance, every everything. She was the person you moured for in the darkness of the night, she was the melody that made your heart sing, she was the breath you took everyday in order to see her dimpled smile that sent your body into an up-roar of euphoria.
"Tell me, princess Y/L/N. Say it, say you don't love me, it's okay." The girl lied to herself. She lolled her head, leaning into the warm familiar touch of your hand on her body. You smile at the sight, loving how the princess infront of you always melted due to your touch.
"I cant." You whispered back, your throat burning and aching at the thought of admitting something that wasn't true. "You know that." She shuffled forward, her knees hitting the base of your foot. She leaned up, her nose brushing against yours.
"Because you love me?" She whispered, her breath brushing into your face. You huff, rolling your eyes at her. She giggled into your neck, soon pulling away just to her that confession of yours. "You love me." She no longer questioned it, fully knowing she had you today, tomorrow and forevermore.
"Indeed, Princess. I love you." She hummed, satisfied with the outcome of the heated argument that had just taken place a few moments ago. You lean further down, assuring she didn't strain her neck.
"Do you wish I would say it back?" The women teased, her lips ghosting over your own. Your tongue darted out, damping the skin below the muscle. She looked up into your eyes once again, her eye brow raised ever so slightly. The air blew harsher in a moment, the curtain brushing into your room further.
The wind blew, the scent of Princess Ortega's desired perfume hitting you. Your lungs collapsed, a heavy groan leaving your mouth. The tension brewed in the room, a heat forming on your cheeks as the women infront of you refused to press her lips into your own.
"Princess" you groaned, leaning closer almost to the point of falling. She shuffled further back, falling onto her elbows.
You followed after her, falling onto your own knees as your leaned over her. Your hair fell down your face, falling onto her own. She giggled at the sensation, the feeling of strands of hair against her skin making her laugh.
"May I?" You pressed a kiss to her cheek, assuring she was comfortable with a kiss. The Princess drew her hands to the back of your neck, biting her lip at you.
"You never have to ask, I am yours, my queen." She mumbled, pulling you that little bit closer. Finally, after a restless about of time your lips collided into a swoon worthy kiss.
With one sudden movement the door slammed open..
-----
Dearest Y/N,
It has been far too long since we last spoke, 4 years in fact. I miss our conversation, I miss your laugh, I miss the way we loved. I miss you the most, everything about you. Its nearly your twenty second birthday, I doubt you'll get my letter; since you haven't replied to the last four. I heard you've became a mother, I'm glad your happy, I'm glad you married someone you love. I hope Damien is okay, I hope your mother enjoyed my latest letter. I no longer hate you, but it appears you still hate me. I hope you still talk about me to the moon, as I do to the ocean.
Forever yours,
Your Jenna.
You walk around your kingdom, constantly wearing a smile full of happiness. Your husband Damien- not the man you was supposed to marry, no your father backed out after an argument with your mother. Instead, you was matched with Damien, he was a hopless romantic with a boy-ish grin. He had dazzling green eyes, something you didn't used to love. He had a charming gaze, long hair that you constantly had your fingers tangled in. You fell in love, hopelessly. You once only held love for one person in your life.
Damien held a tight hold on your hand, smiling as your eyes met. He leaned closer- your heart swooned- just like it did whenever you was with Princess Ortegan.
"You look beautiful my queen." The man spoke into your ear, leaving a kiss to your jaw. You giggled, ducking into your shoulders as you blushed. He smiled, your child- Marie- was hung to his hip. You had made it a tradisation ever since you got crowned; to walk through the village, speak to your people before the anniversary of your coronation.
"Mamma." The baby cooed reaching out to hold you, Damien offered you the child, carefully placing her into your hands. The crowd around you awed at the sight of the latest royal family that was caught infront of them. The baby held your hair, loosely brushing the stands in her small hands. She nuzzled her head into your neck, seemingly tired of all of the fuss.
"Are you tired, Marie?" Damien asked, his hand brushing your shoulder. The child nodded, humming as she lolled to sleep in your embrace. You smiled to yourself, carefully walking back to the Palace were you lived; hand in hand with Damien, your daughter tucked into your chest.
-----
"You cannot be serious?" Jenna told you, a smile begging to be played on her lips. You glared at her, chewing at your nails. Jenna immediately slapped away the hand, scolding you. You huff, hiding your blush as she brushed her fingers through your hair.
"My queen." She cooed, her breath brushing over your ear. You giggled, it had just been your coronation, you was officially a queen- without a king.
"I am being serious." You chuckle, feeling Jenna press feather light kisses to your cheek. She hummed, not really paying any attention to what you was saying. You push her away ever so slightly, trying to pry yourself away from her entoxicating lips.
"You'll be a queen without a king?" She once again asked, repeating herself. You nod, exited for what your future holds. She squealed, knowing no one would be able to take you away from her.
"Are you okay my queen?" Your maid- Eliza- asked with worry in her eyes. She was the women who interrupted yours and Princess Ortegas more intimate moments. The younger women looked at you, preparing herself to fetch whatever you desired.
"Why didn't you tell." You whisper to her. You was sat on your couch, which was placed in the drawing room. She looked at you confusing, acting like you was a make-shift medus and had grown snake hair.
"The day before my 18th birthday, you walked in on me kissing Princess Ortega. Why didn't you tell me father?" You finally looked her in the eyes, the women stared at you for a moment. The girl wasn't much younger than you, maybe 21. She watched as your eyes became an ocean, as your voice swelled with tears.
"Because I knew all along, your majesty. I knew you loved Princess Ortega, I- it was just so obvious." The girl explained, her own eyes darting with sadness. You glare at the floor, thinking maybe if you stared hard enough It would create a black whole for you to fall into.
"Was we really that blinded?" You whisper, your words dying as your voice finally gave up-
"Dance with me!" Princess ortega demanded. The rain danced around the two of you, the ocean above you screaming down at the two of you. Jenna began to spin, twirling her drenched dressed around her legs. She stared at you, she reached her finger out and pried it back; urging you to give in. It had only been a few weeks since becoming Queen- you'd already been granted a break. You ran with the princess towards an old cabin on the out skirts of your kingdom, where you could be free.
The rain didn't stop, it began to pour more harshly if anything. Slamming into the dirt below your feet, the trees bent back and forth the wind causing such a fuss.
"In this weather?" You ask, pointing out the obvious problem with the literal sea pouring on you. The Princess infront of you however giggled, running over to you.
Her hands gripped your waist, her baby hairs covering her perfect face. Her lips curved into a smile, her eyes a sweet brown. She giggled once again, tilting her head to meet your lips.
You acted quick, Cupping her chilled cheeks and swayed with her. Your lips never left hers, the smell of her was consuming- fresh maple trees, with a hint of strawberries. Her breath lingered with all different types of fruits, most prominent one being raspberries.
The rain some how began to bleed faster, mocking your act of love as thunder stuck behind you. A near by tree was stricken down due to the bolt.
You and Jenna gasp into each others mouths, but that didn't pry you two apart. You carried on to dance, her fingers brushing through your hair.
"Will you love me forever?" The brunette infront of you shouted over the storm that carried on to block at every bad thought.
"Beyound forever."
Your rage seethed through your veins, your anger swolling you whole as you paced back and forth your garden. Marie was sat down on the blanket, nicely placed by Eliza. Your hands clutched unopened letters, tears burned down your cheek.
"My dear, how has your evening been?" Your husand, the love of your life, the father to your child ask. He walked up to you, wearing smart attir as he gripped your jaw; placing a forced kiss opon your lips.
"What are these?" You thrusted the letters into his open hands. He cupped the paper, shock clearly written on his face. He clenched the one letter, ripping it in half. A sudden side to the man you'd married bled through his transparent persona.
"How dare you." The man screamed, his cheeks flaming red. The letters were tucked into his closet, covered in old clothes he no longer wanted to wear.
"How dare I?" You shouted back, howling as the thought of him betraying you was still hot in your brain. Eliza quickly picked up the little girl that was sat on the green grass, walking off with your daughter.
"I am your king, you had no right to accuse me of such things." The man matched your anger, even daring to strike a swelling smack to your cheek. The smack stung, sizzling with heat as he retracked his hand.
"You're measly the man I married, the person I decided to allow to share the same bed as I. You have no rights to struck me, nor call yourself king." You seeth back. You decided to ignore the throbbing pain that ached your cheek. Damien stumbled back, staring at the floor in guilt.
"She is your past." He expressed, his words coming out unsure, they sounded more like an excuse than anything. You gripped your dress, your knuckles turning white. You knew he wasn't acting normally, he was never an aggressive man.
"She is my world. She is the reason I live, she's the poison in my oxygen, she's the ache in my heart. I loved her the moment i met her, I'll love her until the moment I die. She's with me everywhere I go, she's the shadow I chase when im alone. She's my queen, Princess Ortega is a better person than you'll ever be." You screamed, every thought, ever passing momemts; Princess Ortega was always there. She was your everything, and you couldn't bear the thought of someone keeping you away from her.
"She left you." Damien jolted your memory, remembering the night that still jolted you awake in the crack of dawn.
Damien had swept you off your feet, his stupidly dumb green eyes enchanted you to your very soul. Jenna hated him, absolute despised the man to his core. You didnt love him, he was just a friend.
Your pinky fingers were locked, walking around the ball. The close proximity of the two of you made your locked hands evaporate among the silk of your dress. She flashed you a prize winning smile, offering a hushed "you look amazing."
Your foot trembled, pushing you over ever so slightly. Your whole body lunged forward, Jenna went to reach for you but Damien was already there. He brushed your hair out of the way, flashing his stupidly cheesy grin towards you.
"Are you okay princess?" With one glance Princess Ortega had ripped herself away from you and found herself sat in between her own family.
Throughout the ball you offered her small waves, senting your smile her way. She didn't look at you once, she didn't mutter a single word to you that entire night. When Damien had worked up the courage to ask you to dance you immediately said no.
He nodded, his smile falling. Princess ortega watched, then she watched how you grabbing his hand. You pulled him to the center of the room, dancing along with the violen and cello.
Her face twisted, heat pooling in her chest. Her fingers fiddled with the hem of her dress, debating whether to leave.
"Sister, have you decided whether you'll join me?" The older Ortega boy asked, smiling apon his sister. Jenna looked at him confused, unsure of what he was implying.
"My trip to Europe, the invitation has been extending to my favourite sister." The man was met with a swift punch to his shoulder by his youngest sister. Jenna giggled sending one last look your way; You was dancing, freely without any fear. His hands were politely resting on your sides, still offering you his best smile he could muster. You laughed every time he cracked a joke, after Jenna left for Europe without another word, you accidentally fell in love.
-----
Your feet moved faster than your brain, your heart beat raced. Your eyes scattered around the familiar sight, proudly standing infront of you was Ortega manner. Your fist clamped together, knocking formally.
The old man smiled apon seeing you- randy- he offered you into the house. The warmness of a full house washed over your body, you smiled to nothing. The loudness of clattering and someone talking caught your attention, you dart towards the sound assuming it was your princess.
"Princess Y/L/N?" Mrs Ortega stumbled seeing your sudden appearance. You furrow your eyebrows at her sudden attitude, she glared at the floor. Her voice was stuck, her chest tight with the realisation of what her daughter did.
"She didn't tell you?" Your heart stopped, you could have swore you saw the grim reaper himself. Your eyes grew fuzzy as the older women explained everything. Your chest was tight, anxiety filled your heart. Unbeknownst to you, the Ortega family was fully aware of yours and their middle child's affair.
"She left me?" You gasped out, tears leaking from the source of yours eyes. She embraced you, held you as you screamed for your lost love. The news you had begged to share with Jenna died in your mind, becoming a passing thought
She had left, she has left. She was in some third world country saving the poor, of course she was. You gulped down every tear you pleaded to shed. You somehow stumbled to your feet, sending your goodbyes to Mrs Ortaga.
You fumbled with your foot, falling head first. A strong, muscular hand caught you. The man chuckled, the same man you had dance with all night.
"Prince, h-how are you?"  He smiled down at you, lifting you up onto your own feet. You stood awkwardly on the pathway, staring up at the man.
"We must stop meeting like this, Miss Y/L/N." He spoke softly, you nod. If Princess Ortega hadn't have left she would have known about Damien, and how he had agreed to marry you so you and Jenna could forever be together. He shrugged a hand through his hair, awaiting your answer.
"She left." Your heart turned cold. Your eyes no longer felt the need to burn for someone who couldn't even handle one simple dance, you burned for her and she left. His face dropped, riddled with confusion.
"Why? I- I thought she loved you.." He stoked the patch of beard he had under his chin, a puzzled look on his face. You hum, not really caring to waste your breath on someone who clearly didn't care for you.
"I guess she didn't."
"Your highness!" Eliza called out, her hands clutching a bag that you had made a few moments ago. You stormed into your daughters room, collecting all the essentials you'd need to get through the days with a toddle. Marie was none the wiser, happily hung around your neck as you darted around her room.
"Help me, Eliza, I can't stay with that man." You seethed, the memory of you smacking him back and you demanding a separation still hot in your mind. She nodded, stumbling forward in hopes to grap your attention.
"When will you meet her?" Your head whipped towards the question, daggers leaving your eyes and piercing the women infront of you. You stood silent, assuming she had  betrayed you too.
"You knew?"
"I- I, I assume Princess Ortega is back? That's why he was so mad? Or has he always been violent?" You release a shaken sigh, dropping your head. Your daughter began to fuss, demanding to be put down. You was scared, you couldn't stay with Damien but you also couldn't leave your daughter.
"Here." Eliza offered her help, picking up your daughter and began to play dolls with the little girl that resembled you, shockingly.
You nod, everything seeming too fast for your brain to catch on to. Your hands thrashed through Marie's things, your feet trodded across the hall towards your bedroom. You stomed around; gathering clothes, Letters, Information you'd need.
Damien was no where to be found, probably at the better end of a whiskey bottle. You found it easier that way, thanking his alcoholic demands for having such a hold on him.
"May I ask you something?" Eliza sheepishly asked, packing the final bag into the trunk of your carriage.
"Yes?"
There was a pause, an undeniable awkwardness within the cramped space. She bit her lip, nibbling ever so slightly on the skin.
"Is she worth it?"
Not even skipping a beat, not even batting an eyelash you nodded, "Yes."
Jenna was worth every tear you shed, every ache you felt, every smile you held, every laughter that bubbled out of your throat. She was the root to everything in your life, whether that be bad or good. She was always behind everything.
You hadn't read the letters yet. He had torn one, one that you hadn't had the knowledge of reading. You knew, whatever she wrote she wrote it for a reason.
"Goodbye, Queen."
"Mother has written, do you wish to know what for?" Jacob, Jenna's older brother asked whilst walking into the drawing room. Jenna hummed, her hands flipping through different pages of her book.
"Queen Y/L/N, didn't know you was leaving." The boys tone was scolding and accusing. Jenna shrank in on herself, her lip between her teeth.
"She fell out of love." She mumbled into her palm, knowing that was only half true. However it wasnt at all true.
"That's not what our mother declares." Jacob carried on. Jenna didn't give the boy the satisfaction of knowing she was dying to know what their mother had written, word for word.
"She chose him."
"She danced with him, that wasn't her declaring her undying love for that fool." Jacob retorted, throwing the paper towards his younger sister. "Shes gone mad without you."
The carriage ride was exhausting, you dreaded seeing your father. He was a strong man that turned sour with his age, he was mean and wouldn't have even cared if you told him the truth; that your husband turned abusive.
Your foot nervously bounced up and down, debating whether to read the letters, they were hundreds and you needed to read them eventually.
Tears openly flowed out of Princess Ortega's eyes, clutching the letter her mother wrote a few days prior. It had been 3 months since leaving, it was hard not to demand her brother to return home. But she suffered through the pain, hoping eventually she'd find a sense of belong; a sense she'd only even found in the arms of you.
The words bled together, her hands tearing the piece of paper into shreds.
Queen y/l/n is engaged, to be wed next week in the halls of belle. Damien was the man's name, charming, she does seem happy, Jenna-
Jenna couldn't bear to read more, her heart already broke and stomped on atleast 12 times already.
"Y/N, we've missed you." Your mother cooed, holding Marie in her hands. The baby giggled, nibbling on her pacifier. She had been teething terribly bad, to the point of tears each and every night.
"Mother, could I trouble you, I need a piece of paper and pen." Your mother nodded, asking her own maid to fetch the demanded things. You sat yourself down on your desk, the same desk that Princess ortega would write random love poems to you, the same desk were you'd kiss each night before she'd have to leave-
My dearest Jenna,
Loving you was probably the most easiest things I'd ever do in my short liven life. I loved you, I loved you until it psychically hurt. Every moon lit date, every dance among the ocean, every song you declared was ours, I always found myself loving you. But,
My love was always not taken serious by you, the constant recurrence I had to send your way just for us to have a normal day was exhausting. You was mess, a mess that I wanted. I danced with Damien because he looked so sad, I laughed at his joke because I was being polite, I stayed with him all night because we had a plan. I was going to marry him but love you, instead you decided to leave me. You left me, with nothing but empty space. I don't forgive you, I don't hate you either. Your the light in my tunnel, the air in my lungs and most famously; The Ocean to my Moon.
Damien stole your letters, I left him. He knew, I think he knew, I'd always love you no matter what.
I loved you the most when you was dancing with the rain singing without shame, I loved you when you broke down in my arms the day I told you I was marrying that old man. I never hated you, because hate was too close to love. I just stopped everything, I went numb because I'd rather lose myself than live with a life were there was no jenna.
I can only hope that we will meet again, maybe under a moon lit night were we dance once again. I'd like to kiss you before i die, maybe express how much I loved you even though you left. But I won't let myself dream anymore, it's painful. I have a daughter now, Her names Marie. I guess deep down i knew you was always the love of my life, my soul mate. She's named after you because I wanted her to be beautiful, to be strong and a fighter just like the women who was supposed to be her mother. I'll leave my seemingly long letter with that, I hope you get this my princess.
I'll love you beyond forever.
Sincerely, yours Y/N.
Jenna found it oddly surreal walking back into her childhood home. The colours were still a warm green, the lights still hung on the walls. Her younger siblings running freely among the grass outside the manner, her nieces and nephews making baby noises as her older sister chats with their mother.
She walked further into the home, sadness dwelling on her due to the fact no one noticed her appearance; she'd been gone for 4 years. Her feet softly padded into the floor, accompanying her mother as she stood on the lawn.
"Evening, Mother." She greeted the older women, smiling as the sun blared unforgiving at them. It was like the weather was controlled by Yours and Jenna's love, when the Sun was out the two of you couldn't have been further apart, when the rain poured down on the earth the two of you was probably found kissing somewhere no one would found you.
"Jenna!" The women gasped, embracing her daughter into a bone crushing hug. The two shared a few moments together, before the nagging need to find out why her daughter had suddenly came home.
"I love the welcome intrusion, but why are you here Jenna?"
Jenna wrote madly on the pieces of paper infront of her, scribbling down every ounce of love that she felt for you. Her brother watched, a scowl on his face.
"Jenna, what on earth are you doing?" The man asked, walking towards his sister in hopes to read what she was writing. The girl shooked away from him, hissing at the thought anyone but you would read what she needed to say.
"Writing."
Jenna needed to hear of you, she needed to know you was okay and that you still felt atleast something for her. She wrote every pained thought she felt, every sadned question that aired her brain. She knew you was marrying Damien, she knew you wasn't hers anymore. But still, the thought of you forgetting her was enough to drive her into insanity.
Word after word, page turned into pages until she finally had a book.
Jenna stared at her mother's question, she found herself wearing a smile mixed with blush.
"Queen Y/L/N, replied."
————–
Eliza carefully tied the lace on your corset. The annual ball was today, the anniversary of your coronation. You impatiently bounced your left foot, chewing on your nail like you did many years prior. But things were different. Next to you, as beautiful as ever stood your daughter. And there wasn't no Jenna to push away your bad habits.
"I'm dreadfully tired." You mumbled, hoping you could excuse yourself early to the party. Even though you was still well into your youth, days always seemed to drag. Eliza hummed, her hands dragging once up your whole back before leaving the corset with that.
The dress was soon fitted, sliding down your frame. You smiled at yourself, seeing what stood infront of the mirror. You may not have achieved much in your life, but you was sure as hell proud to be able to call Maria your daughter. She was playing quietly in the corner of your bedroom, fiddling with letters Princess Ortega made you when you two were only girls.
"All done, Queen."
—————
As always, your night was dreadfully long. It was brain numbing to be witness of the true mindless People of your country. The Ortega family arrived late, Jenna a no show like the current balls your family had held.
You sometimes caught yourself wondering if Europe was all it seemed to be. Surely it wasn't that interesting to invest years of your life to travel it.
In your pitiful state, you felt the damness of the atmosphere shift; water began to positively pour down into your kingdom, drouding out all thought that casting into your soured mind. Jenna getting lost during the rain, forgetting every pained image you had of her. Your feet dangled off the edge of the hill, below it was a drop worthy enough to kill. You often spent your evenings casted to witness the wildlife that traveled through the vally like state. Along side the hill stood a tree, the same tree that held many feelings in your heart.
Your bear feet had trickles of water droplets falling off them, along with the edge of your jaw and tip of your nose. It was enough to bring a mad person to sanity, the feeling of rain falling onto your tensed shoulders.
Everything was corrupted with the sound of the rain, the weather suddenly growing harsh and unforgiven with each moment you stayed painfully unaware of the brunette who chased down each and every one of your staff in hopes to find your whereabouts.
"Have you seen the Queen?" Jenna breathed out, her pants clouding her speech ever so slightly. The man that cooked you dinner shrugged, not really caring for the women infront of him. A strained groan left the princesses lips, clutching her hands together with a sob. You hadn't realised the time that drifted, it had been two hours since you left your own party.
Jenna left the kitchen, sprinting to your bedroom. Funny enough, almost like time had stopped all together when Jenna entered your bedroom eveything was the same. Everything in the same place, the only different was the sleeping girl that laid in the mist of your pillows and blankets.
Jenna gasped, her heart exploding. She was identical to you when you was a just a child, her hair scattered across the pillow and cheeky plushed.
"Princess Ortega" Eliza bumped chest with the frantic girl infront of her. Jenna was untameble, her eyes wide like a serial killer. She panted, her lungs seizing at the thought of being too late.
"Where- where is she? Where's my Y/N?" Your name rolled off her tongue, like it was meant to be. She wasn't ashamed to show her face anymore, she wasn't paralysed with crippling jealousy like she used to be. She wanted what's rightfully herself, she came for a reason and every moment of her passing years dragged all due to one reason. You was no where to be seen, you became a stranger and she'd be damned if your love story didn't end with the two of you hopefully in love with no fear in your heart and a house fill of laughter.
"Shes- she never told me. She said she's leaving to her safe space." Eliza stuttered, shifting on her feet at the sudden desperation that stormed Jenna's features.
Jenna didn't reply, she hurried off. Her feet slammed, claiming down onto the carpeted wooden floor, she barged past people ignoring their cries of ignorance. They didn't know why princess Ortega was harshly running through the halls, nor why she was in such a panic.
Jenna finally stumbled towards the tree where you and her first kissed. You two was 16, she had finally admit her deepest secret that led to you sharing yours.
"I..I think I'm in love you." Jenna sheepishly admit, her face a blushing mess. The moon lit night did wonders for her beauty, the moon truly reflection the astonishing view she could be. You was so caught up with her freckled nose that you almost forgot to reply.
Your confession was caught in your lips. Jenna was sat infront of you, waiting for an answer. She was smiling, almost like she knew you was desperately in love with her too. It was obvious, the love you two shared wasn't a secret. It was painfully clear to anyone with a sense of mind, no friends long for one another like you and jenna did.
"I know I love you Jenna. There isn't a doubt in my mine, you're my ocean." Confidence washed over you, your chest growing in size with the amount of oxygen you took in as you breathe.
Jenna giggled, her hand dragging closer to your cheek. She cupped your face ever so slightly, placing the other on the floor to stabilise her. She leaned forward, scared to fully commit the sin she wanted to destroy.
"Kiss me."
The way Jenna ran towards the moon lit tree was supernatural, she didn't stop when a seizing pain took over her lower stomach. She treded through the untamed grass, storming faster when she saw the faint sign of someone sitting down by the hill.
"Y/N!" Jenna howled, her words echoing through the air. She shuffled, huffing out in pain when the shadow didn't turn around. Biting down on her lip she ran faster, her thighs burning and the bottom of her dress tearing.
"Y/N!" The grass sqelched below her, the mud splattered up the better half of her legs. She ignored the uncomfortable feeling off the thick muck intruding her skin, knowing you was only a few minutes away.
Just as God frowned down on the two of you, the weather began to grow worse. God upping his game, the rain began to pound, slamming into Jenna's skin leaving harsh marks in result. The rain turned into thick clumps of ice, then a shed of hailstones. A sharp enough peice of ice slashed the cheek of Jenna, she hissed holding the skin as blood began to trickle down her flesh.
"Queen!"
Thunder crashed down on the tree standing right beside you. Your body jolted awake, the lighting scaring the life out of you. Your hand clamped around the fabric around your chest, breathing becoming labored and strained.
"Holy-" Your whole body was forced side ways, your arms swinging ever so slightly. You gasped, someone coming into contact with your face. The strangers hands cupped your cheeks, forcing you to look at them.
Standing infront of you, as beautiful as ever stood your Jenna. She was wearing a shy smile, her hair stuck to her head. The water droplets dribble down her face, leaving her a mess that sent yout into a coma. She was ethereal, extremely elegant.
The years you'd spent apart felt like nothing anymore, like the gap in history was drawn out of proportion and it hadn't been four years but a mear few days. Jenna looked exactly the same, maybe even gain more worshipable freckles that would add to your on going count.
"Princess Ortega-" Your words were muffled, Jenna's lips crashing into yours. The lack of people around left the both of you reckless, a slave to the desire that drilled into your bodies at the lack of being near each other in far too long.
"You once promised me that you'd love me forever." Jenna gasped, the lack of air still evident with her struggle with breathing. Her hand never left your face, determined to keep you as close as possible.
"I believe I said beyond forever." You reminded her, smiling with the same cocky over confident smirk that made Jenna want to rip your head off. Instead of rolling her eyes, slapping your arm or even straight up leaving like she once did after seeing the sight she pulling you closer to her. Her lips crashed into yourself, your hands finally coming to life to hold her face too.
"Do you intend to keep your promise?" Jenna asked, pulling away from your lips. A stern groan left yours, a plead of objection.
"Only if you intend to extend the same sentiment my way."
She smiled, both of you giggling like it was second nature. The weather was yet to seize, only growing more fearful.
"I'll love you until humanity crumbles and the sun explodes into nothing."
The Ocean will always have its Moon. And you will always have your Jenna

Tumblr media
As the days turn into weeks and the weeks turn into months, slowly, the pain subsides.
Your normal? It’s potentially forever gone. It shouldn’t be a surprise, at this point.
Once you’d just been a teenage girl, crazily in love with another girl.
Who turned out to be a serial killer. Who’d somehow turned you into a killer.
Who’d made you cry, and laugh and love harder than you’d ever loved in your entire life.
In the grand scheme of things - the scar on your belly is probably the least of your worries.
But that doesn’t stop you toiling on it.
It always seems to be the way, doesn’t it? Worrying about the things that don’t really matter.
You worry nonetheless.
“It’s pretty,” Tara murmurs in comfort when you’re staring at yourself in the bathroom mirror, shirt lifted slightly, eyebrows pinched in dismay.
It’s not pretty.
It’s wiry and long and stems from the tip of your bellybutton down to your navel.
“It’s hideous.” You say, voice a little fraught.
It’s hideous and permanent.
You’ll never be able to wear a bikini again. You’ll never be able to take your shirt off again without being reminded of it.
Of her.
The woman who had tormented you for weeks.
The woman who you’d tormented for weeks. The woman whose son you’d taken from her. The woman who’d repaid you in mental scars to last a lifetime.
A belly scar to last a lifetime.
“It’s beautiful,” Tara says, pressing her lips to your shoulder, “It means you’re alive.”
She squeezes your hips, then lifts her own shirt.
“And it matches mine,” She says, eyes shimmering, “Matching knife wounds. Like soulmates.”
You snort.
Because of course Tara tries to make stab wounds romantic.
But to her credit - it works.
Your heart sings.
Soulmates.
Because that’s what you are.
“Who needs a wedding ring, right?” You say, biting your lip, insecurities suddenly fading.
Tara entwines your hands, lifts the back of your hand to her lips.
“You do,” Tara says, “And you’ll have one. Soon. I promise.”
You pull back.
“Not before-“
“College,” Tara says, rolling her eyes, “I know, babe.”
You press a lingering kiss to her cheek.
“I just don’t want to be one of those couples who rush into marriage and fall apart the moment they turn twenty-one.”
“That won’t be us,” Tara whines, and then she pouts, “Plenty of high school sweethearts get married right after high school.”
You groan.
“Tara, we talked about this already-“
“I know,” Tara says, voice hasty, “I’m just excited. I want you to be Mrs. Carpenter already.”
“Mrs Carpenter, huh?” You say, ignoring the fluttery rush that blooms through you at the thought, “And what if I want you to take my name?”
Tara cocks a brow and considers this.
“I don’t care, babe, I’ll change my name to garden gnome if you want, as long as I get to be your wife.” She says after a moment.
You smile. Squeeze her hand.
“You’d suit it,” You tease, “But Mrs and Mrs Carpenter has a nice ring to it.”
Tara tilts her head hopefully.
“So, maybe a high school wedding?” She asks, voice sly, “Mrs Carpenter would look good on your college application forms.”
You press a warm kiss to her lips.
“There’s no rush, babe,” You tell her, “And I need to save up. Get you a pretty ring.”
Tara squints.
“I’m proposing first,” She says immediately, “You promised, babe.”
You roll your eyes.
“Yes, you baby, I know.”
Tara tilts her head, seemingly satisfied.
You press a kiss to her lips. She’s cured your insecurity, for now.
But a new feeling gnaws at the bottom of your stomach.
Dread.
As you realize what comes next. You try to keep your voice light. Lighter than the heavy pit at the bottom of your stomach.
“Come on,” You say, trying and failing not to sound anxious, “It’s time for therapy.”
-
Dr Colmann is a five foot woman with long, flowing blonde hair and piercing blue eyes.
Her office is bland. Gray walls. Little decoration.
Like she wants your attention on her.
You’d met her first, a few weeks ago. Like a pterodactyl scouting out a potential nest for her baby.
Your situation is tricky - there’s only so much you can tell her.
And you’re no doctor - but even you know surely it’s impossible to diagnose an illness without knowing all the symptoms.
“I want to get something out of the way,” You’d said after a long moment, clearing your throat.
Dr Colmann had looked over at you, pen tilted and ready to write. With all the intimidation of a woman who was about to change your life.
“I’m aware my girlfriend is…” You had paused, trying to think of the right word, “A little… possessive.”
Dr Colmann said nothing.
“I know that, and that’s why we’re looking for help.” You’d bitten your lip, nervous, “And I’m also sure the first thing you’re going to tell me is to leave her. But that isn’t going to happen. I love her. And she loves me. We’re looking for coping methods. I want to help her feel secure. But I will not break up with her.”
Dr Colmann had just listened.
Her silence, if possible, made you all the more nervous.
“She’s not abusive or anything,” You’d clarified, hastily, “She doesn’t hurt me. She just gets… jealous.”
“And what does she do when she gets jealous?” She’d asked, finally breaking her silence.
“Um-“ You’d said, voice a little high. Memories flashed before you like nightmares and you’d been entirely grateful your thoughts couldn’t be seen.
“She lashes out. Not at me. At other people.”
Dr Colmann scribbled something in her notepad. Long, wiry, black inky marks.
You’d squinted, trying to make up the words, but she’d looked back at you before you’d had the chance.
“Do you have any examples?” Dr Colmann prompted.
You paused.
You had a fair few of those.
None of which you could disclose.
“Little things,” You said, “I used to play soccer. But I had to quit because Tara thought some of the girls might become interested in me.”
You chew your lip.
“And… I was just in the hospital. She got jealous of the nurse.”
“The nurse?”
“She tried to… give me a sponge bath and Tara freaked out.”
Dr Colman stared.
You swallowed. The words out loud somehow seemed even more ridiculous than they are.
“How did she freak out?” Dr Colmann asked.
“She tried to…” You swallowed again, “She didn’t want the nurse to touch me again. Not even to change my bandages.”
Dr Colmann pursed her lips.
“I told her that was stupid,” You’d said, hurriedly, “But when she gets like that, nothing can stop her. She calls it The Rage.”
Dr Colmann tilted her head.
“The Rage?”
You’d nodded.
“Yeah. It’s like… it’s like something takes over her. Like a demon or something. Something she can’t control.”
Dr Colmann had closed her notebook. She’d looked over at you, surveying. You’d blinked back, eyes wide, surely screaming help me, or something to that effect.
Then, she smiled.
“When can I meet her?”
-
You’re no less nervous the second time.
You greet Dr Colmann with a tight smile, draw Tara down into the seat next to you. Your knee bobs up and down, unable to quell the tide of anxiety rising deep within you.
Please, you think, a little desperate, please help her.
As Tara and Dr Colmann exchange pleasantries, you blink. Too many times.
Like you don’t know how this is going to go. The worst case scenario flashes before you: Dr Colmann in a body bag.
Tara in a jail cell.
You in a jail cell.
Never able to touch her, or hold her, or kiss her ever again.
You need therapy, the little voice in your head leers, judgmental, not being with Tara is worse than a woman dying?
“So, Tara,” Dr Colmann says, when you’re all seated. With all the cheeriness of someone who isn’t aware you’re imagining her as a corpse.
“Tell me about The Rage.”
An awkward silence settles over the three of you.
Tara shoots a hesitant look towards you.
You squeeze her hand and nod.
Then, she looks over to Dr Colmann.
“It’s an anger thing,” Tara mumbles, not looking her in the eye, “I’ve seen shrinks before, none of them can fix it.”
Dr Colmann tilts her head.
“And what did these other doctors do?” She asks, “Anger management classes? Medication?”
“Both,” Tara says, “Nothing ever worked.”
Dr Colmann hums.
“I’ve read through your file, Tara,” She says gently, “Fourteen different therapists across the state. That’s a lot of doctors. Especially for such a young girl.”
Tara assesses her. Her face is tight, guarded. Like she’s not sure if she can quite trust her.
Dr Colmann scribbles something in her notepad.
“Lots of kids have problems with anger,” Says Dr Colmann, “But anger is just a symptom, like any other emotion. From what YN has told me, anger isn’t the problem. Sharing is the problem.”
Tara frowns.
“Plenty of children have issues with sharing,” Dr Colmann continues, “Usually, it’s the parents who stamp it out. But not always. I see in your file your sister used to bear the brunt of most of these anger issues.”
Tara folds her arms.
“Not always,” She says.
“But most of the time,” Says Dr Colmann, pointedly. She squints, reading through her notes, “It says here you attacked your sister when you were four years old because she tried to play with one of your Barbie dolls. Then again, later that week for taking a bigger slice of pie.”
“Four year olds are allowed to have boundaries, aren’t they?” Says Tara, defensively, “That Barbie was mine.”
“And YN? She’s yours too?” Asks Dr Colmann, evenly.
Tara blinks.
“She’s my girlfriend.” Tara says, diplomatically. The question is a trap, one she’s determined to avoid.
Dr Colmann tilts her head.
“And you don’t like when other people play with her? Is that right?”
Anger flickers through Tara’s features. You bite your lip, and squeeze her hand. Try to keep her grounded.
“I suppose not.” Says Tara, voice tight.
“YN told me about the nurse,” Dr Colmann says, “And the soccer team. You made her quit? Why?”
Tara looks over to you, a little helpless.
“I didn’t make her quit,” She says, slowly, like she’s being very careful with her words, “I just… suggested it. Strongly.”
Dr Colmann makes a noise of dissatisfaction.
Then returns to madly scribbling on her notepad.
Tara frowns again, looking self-conscious.
Dr Colmann looks up.
“And what if someone on the soccer team had been interested?” Dr Colmann asks, “What would you have done?”
You avert your gaze.
Kill them, is the answer.
It’s already happened.
More than once.
Tara shifts.
“I wouldn’t like it.” Tara says.
“No reasonable person would like that, Tara,” Dr Colmann prods, gently, “But what would you do?”
“I don’t know,” Says Tara, sounding aggravated, “Not let her see them anymore.”
“And do you think that’s an appropriate request?” Dr Colmann asks, “Do you really think you should have control over who your girlfriend associates with?”
Tara narrows her eyes.
“YN would do it for me,” She says, “We’re in a relationship. Relationships are about compromise.”
“That isn’t compromise, Tara,” Dr Colmann says, gently, “That’s you demanding she do something and her complying. Do you not trust her?”
Tara blinks.
She looks over to you, then back to Dr Colmann.
“Of course I do,” She says, voice soft, “It’s other people I don’t trust.”
“And what do you think these other people are going to do?” Dr Colmann asks.
“I don’t know.” Tara says, voice small, as if she’s never really thought that far ahead.
She looks like a little lost puppy. You want to wrap her in your arms and tell her you’ll never talk to anybody else again if that’s what she wants.
You resist.
Healthy wife, happy life, is what you tell yourself instead.
Dr Colmann’s face washes with sympathy.
“Jealousy is pointless, Tara,” Dr Colmann says, voice gentle, “Worrying is pointless. If YN is going to cheat on you, she’ll cheat on you. If she’s going to leave you, she’ll leave you. There’s nothing you - or The Rage can do about it.”
Tara blinks.
“I-“ She says, as if Dr Colmann has just spit in her face “What?”
Dr Colmann sits forward in her seat. Her notebook discarded.
“What you need to do - is trust. Your girlfriend loves you. Clearly. She wouldn’t be here with you if she didn’t.”
Tara frowns.
“You’re afraid of losing her,” Dr Colman says, eyebrows knit, as if Tara is a particularly difficult puzzle she can’t quite get her head around, “But why? We’ve already established she loves you. She wouldn’t be here with you if she didn’t.”
Tara blinks. You soothe a finger across the back of her hand. Resist the urge to press a kiss to her pretty forehead.
You let the doctor do the work.
“Have other people you loved left you, Tara?” Dr Colmann prods, gently.
Tara’s shoulders tense.
Dr Colmann waits a moment.
“Who?” She asks, "Your Mom? Your Dad?”
“Both.” Tara says, voice small, “They both left me.”
Your heart aches.
If you could - you’d sucker punch the two of them right now.
It isn’t an option. Instead - you grip her hand tight, offer her a small smile of encouragement as she speaks.
Tara swallows.
“My Dad tried to fix me,” Tara says, “For years. I was an angry kid. They could never figure out what was wrong with me. Eventually he just… gave up. He walked out on me and My Mom and my sister. Left us, just like that.”
“That must have been very traumatic,” Says Dr Colmann, “How old were you?”
“Thirteen.” Says Tara, “My Mom never left. I mean, she did. She threw herself into work to cope with my Dad leaving. She started going on these long business trips. But she never officially left.”
Dr Colmann offers her a small smile, “And that’s why you get so jealous, is it Tara? You’re afraid YN will leave you? Like your Mom? Like your Dad?”
Tara hesitates.
She looks down at her hands.
“Yes.” She says, after a long moment.
“Baby,” You say, voice hushed. Tara squeezes your fingers.
Dr Colmann hums.
“That makes a lot of sense, Tara,” She says, her voice kind, “That gives us something to work with.”
She closes her notepad, offers the two of you a reassuring smile.
“Your anger - we can work through that. We can figure out some coping methods. But the main problem here isn’t anger, Tara. It’s trust. I know you said you trust YN but you’re still scared. Deep down you’re scared she’ll abandon you, just like your parents did. We need to work through that.”
“Is it something we can fix?” You ask, a tad desperate.
You’d lost count of the amount of times you’d promised Tara you’d never leave her.
And each time it seemed to fall on deaf ears the moment The Rage was invoked.
“We can try,” Dr Colmann says, “I can try. And it’ll take some hard work. But Tara, it’ll only work if you’re open to it. If you’re open to changing. Is that something you can do?”
Tara thinks for a moment.
And then she nods.
“Yeah,” She says, “I want to do it. I want to be different. For you, babe,”
She squeezes your hand. Thinks hard.
“And for me too."
-
You’re silent the entire way home.
Tara too.
She grips your hand so hard you think it might fall off at one point. It’s only when she pulls into the driveway, she speaks.
“I didn’t scare you off, did I?” She asks, chewing her lip as she looks over at you, “With all my… problems.”
“Never, baby,” You say immediately.
You lean over to kiss her cheek. She relaxes.
“I’m going to need a lot of therapy, aren’t I?” She says, sounding worried.
You press another warm kiss to her cheek.
“I’ll be with you the whole way,” You assure, “I'm not going anywhere, Tara.”
You hesitate.
“You know I’m not like your Dad, right?” You say, “Or your Mom. I’m not going to leave you.”
Tara offers you a small smile.
“I know, babe,” She says, “At least in theory, I know.”
You press a kiss to her lips.
“I guess I’ll just have to remind you then,” you say, “Everyday. I love you. You’re stuck with me. I’ll say it until you believe me in theory and in practice.”
Tara rests her forehead against yours.
“Okay,” She says, “And keep saying it after that, okay babe?”
You kiss her.
“Deal.”
-
Your Mom’s still in the hospital.
Her leg had been amputated after the attack, and the procedure hadn’t been easy on her or your Dad. She’d come home after two weeks and then been admitted once more when the wound became infected.
“Are you feeling okay?” You ask her now, chewing your lip, phone pressed to your ear.
Tara finishes up the dishes, setting down the washcloth to nestle in beside you, squeezing your hip comfortingly.
“I’m okay, sweetheart,” She says, “Will you come and visit tomorrow?”
“I’ll be there,” You promise, “Sam is going to pick us up after school.”
“And everything’s alright at the house?” Enquires your Mom.
You were staying at Tara’s place until your parents came back home, a decision that was quickly agreed on, for once.
“Everything’s fine, Mom,” You assure, “Sam’s working now, but she’ll be home in a couple of hours.”
Your Mom hums.
“And Tara’s there with you, isn’t she?” She asks, sounding a little worried, “You’re not alone?”
“Tara’s here,” You say and Tara kisses the back of your neck, “You don’t have to worry, Mom.”
“Is that Tara?” Asks your Dad through the phone, a little gruff, “Can I speak with her?’
“Dad wants to speak to Tara, YN, bye for now,” Says your Mom, “See you tomorrow.”
You barely get out the goodbye before you hear your Dad’s voice once more.
“Tara?” He asks.
“It’s me Dad,” You say, and he makes a noise of vague disappointment.
You roll your eyes.
“We’re fine, thanks for asking.” You say.
“Yes, yes, I heard you speak with Mom,” He assures, “Put Tara on the phone.”
You hand off the phone to your girlfriend and pry yourself out of her grip, busying yourself with playing the leftovers into their containers.
“Hello, Sir,” Says Tara, the way you might speak to the President.
She bobs her head, eyebrows knitting.
“Yes, I did see the 49ers play.”
You huff.
Tara averts her gaze.
“Yes, I did think they played like a bunch of seven year old girls.”
You roll your eyes once more.
Tara’s newfound friendship with your Dad is better than the alternative, at least. You’d lived the alternative.
It hadn’t been much fun.
“We’re okay,” Tara promises, suddenly, “I have every door locked down, alarms set and cameras operating.”
Your Dad murmurs something down the line you can’t hear.
Tara smiles, and then reaches for your hand.
“I’m not letting her out of my sight, Sir, you don’t have to worry,” She says, “I won’t let anyone hurt her. I promise.”
She hangs up not long after.
You should be used to it by now, the flutter in the pit of your stomach every time she gets protective, or calls you hers, but you’re not.
Butterflies cascade through your belly, branching out to the tips of your fingertips where they settle. You curl in around Tara and press your lips to her neck.
She smells good. No perfume, just the tinge of her skin and her coconut body wash.
You squeeze her hips and nip your teeth against the nape of her neck.
“Oh.” Tara sighs as you slip your fingers into the waistband of your jeans. She leans back into your touch, titling your head to capture your lips.
“Really?” She asks, a little excited.
You laugh.
You’d not had sex in a few weeks, hardly in the mood. Your wound aches most days, and the rest are spent really remarkably unsexy, despite Tara’s constant reassurance you’re the most beautiful girl in the world.
She turns in your arms, pressing another kiss to your lips.
“Sam won’t be home for hours,” You murmur against her lips, “Just you and me. The way it should be.”
“Your stomach doesn’t hurt?” She asks, a little soft. Her eyes swim with concern, “We can just watch a movie, if you want?”
You shake your head.
She looks good. Her dark hair pulled back in a ponytail. No makeup, her spill of freckles poignant, her pretty lips pouty and red and kissable.
“I want you, baby,” You murmur, nuzzling your nose to the side of her face, “Do you want me too?”
You don’t have to wait long for a response.
She presses a searing kiss to your lips.
“Do you even have to ask?” She says, biting her lip.
“No,” You smile, “But I want to hear you say it anyway.”
“I want you,” She says, immediately. She’s excited again, you can tell by the way her eyes flicker, “I want you all the time.”
“Come take me then,” You murmur against her mouth.
She doesn’t have to be told twice.
She leads you up the staircase, walking backwards. Her mouth fused to yours, her careful hands roaming every span of skin she can get her hands on.
She helps you onto the bed, far gentler than her usual gig of wild hands and wild lips. Instead, this time she touches you as if you might shatter into a thousand pieces.
You make an annoyed murmur as she pulls your jeans down your legs. It feels like an age, the way she softly untangles the button and the zipper. Her touch is light, so un-Tara.
When she finally pulls your legs from your jeans, you almost cry out of frustration.
“Babe, I’m not going to break.” You tell her, but it falls on deaf ears.
She’s pressing her lips to your thigh, tiny, gentle touches as she pulls your underwear down your legs at a pain-stakingly slow pace.
“Don’t rush me, babe,” She says as you reach down to help her, “And lie back. I don’t want to hurt you.”
“I feel fine,” You say, tilting up to meet her kiss, “Please hurt me.”
Tara huffs, drawing back slightly.
“It’s not fair to say things like that when you know I can’t.” She pouts, “The things I want to do to you will almost certainly rip your stitches.”
Arousal coils deep in your belly.
Then annoyance.
“Now who's not being fair?” It’s your turn to pout.
Tara nudges her lips to your neck.
“I’m going to make love to you, baby-girl,” She promises, her eyes dark, “That’s more than fair.”
You tilt your head up and press a lingering kiss to her lips.
“Besides. If I rip your stitches I think your Dad will have something to say.”
You wrinkle your nose.
“Let’s not talk about my Dad when we’re getting naked, babe,” You suggest.
She hums in agreement.
And then you reach for her shirt.
“Off.”
If she’s going to spend the entire evening getting your underwear down your legs, the least she can do is give you something to look at, you reason.
Your touch is impatient.
You pry off her jeans like there’s a time limit. Strip her of her shirt and her bra until she’s hovering naked above you, making your mouth water.
And suddenly, what little patience you had left is gone.
You rise up, starling her.
“Babe-“ She protests, but you can’t be reasoned with.
You tilt her around, until she’s lying back on the mattress, nudging her bare legs apart with your thighs.
“Too slow, my turn.” You murmur.
Your lips are hungry.
You kiss her, fierce, groaning slightly as your hands get to work. They work down the curve of her hips, to her thighs. You squeeze her, a little rough, and then move your hands to take her nipples between your fingers.
She gasps, her hips involuntarily jerking up towards yours. You detangle yourself from her lips, leaning down to press hot kisses against her neck.
She threads her fingers through your hair, tugging, tugging, as she moves against you. She’s still holding back, being careful not to touch your stomach.
You can tell by the way she’s groaning it’s hard for her.
And so you make it easy.
Your lips move down from her neck to her breasts. You circle each nipple once, then twice, before you’re taking her in your mouth, curling your arms around each of her thighs.
“Baby,” Tara murmurs, “Baby, your stomach-“
You release her nipple with a wet pop and a frown.
“I’m fine, babe.” You say, and it’s true.
It aches, slightly, but it always does nowadays. No matter what you’re doing.
And if it’s her you’re doing, at least the ache is dampened by the forest fire of arousal surging through your veins.
You return to your pilgrimage down her body.
Your lips graze her belly-button, your tongue slips down over the jut of her hips to the crest of her thighs.
She sighs, seemingly satisfied as you slip down further. Moving your body to settle nicely in between her legs.
Then, she tilts her head up, biting her lip.
Her eyes are hesitant, though encompassed with want.
“Tell me if it hurts,” She says, “Tell me and we can stop. Or…re-adjust.”
You nod, impatient.
“Alright babe, I will,” You say, raising an eyebrow, “Can I go down on you now?”
Her cheeks flush red with arousal.
“Please.” She whispers.
She’s beautiful, as ever.
You press your lips against the soft skin of her inner thighs, grazing your lips just gently. You use your tongue to work your way inwards.
Your breath catches in your throat the moment you taste her. Wet, syrupy, bittersweet goodness.
You lick it up, greedy for more. You press your lips to her folds, use your hands to spread her open for you. You lose control of your tongue.
One minute you’re ready to tease, the next, you’ve worked yourself up too much.
Your tongue moves hot across her folds and then down to her entrance. Your top lip brushes her clit and she sings.
A low moan that vibrates through the room.
A moan that indicates it’s been far too long since you’ve touched her like this.
You apologize with your mouth.
Low strokes of your tongue at her entrance. The quiet murmur of your own moan as your tongue moves up to circle her clit.
Lazy, slow, movements.
Then fast.
Like you’re changing your own mind too quickly.
You settle for writing words with your tongue.
babygirl, is what you spell out against her clit.
Your name. Her name. You connect them with a heart.
And then: mine.
Tara lets out a quiet moan as you take her clit between your lips. Sucking gently until her thighs are gripping like iron bars around the side of your head and her nails against your scalp bruise.
You give up on using the alphabet.
You slip two fingers inside her, sighing as she encases you. She’s tight and wet and begging for more.
You give it to her.
Curl your fingers up in just the right way. Lap your tongue over her clit just the way she likes.
And then she’s gasping as she tightens around you. She cries your name in a breathy moan as she cums hard around your fingers and mouth.
It’s always over too quickly, you think briefly as you reluctantly slip out of her. You need to learn patience. You need to learn how to tease.
But there’s something about her, and you don’t know how she does it. You just have to give her what she wants.
She lets out a happy sigh as you climb up her body and press your lips to her forehead.
She’s still a moment, but you know better. She recovers quickly.
In less than a minute she’s shifting.
You groan as your back hits the mattress.
Her hands slip down to your thighs, gripping you like she has an agenda. And she does. You know it by heart.
First, the gentle touch of her lips against your neck.
Then she’s sliding your underwear down your legs.
She kisses your lips, slips her tongue into your mouth for only a moment. And then she’s trailing kisses down your body.
Your chest. Your breasts.
She pays special attention to your nipples. Her eyes locking with yours as she sucks, ever so gently.
Your body feels hot.
You grip her face, holding her in place.
And then she’s nudging out of your grip, dipping down to press her lips to your navel.
She doesn’t kiss your scar, but you can tell she wants to.
She looks up at you, eyes wide and vulnerable as she squeezes your hips.
“You’re beautiful.” She murmurs. She ducks down and presses a kiss to the top of your inner thigh, “You’re perfect. My perfect girl.”
“Tara,” You say, voice a little gravelly, “Baby, please.”
She doesn’t make you wait.
One moment she’s pressing her lips to your thigh. The next, she’s dipping down between your legs. You lean back onto the pillows with a sigh.
Her lips graze.
She kisses your inner thigh.
Drags her tongue over your entrance and you gasp.
Then, her lips are on your clit.
You moan as she snakes a hand around your waist. The other slips between your legs. She teases for only a moment before she’s slipping her fingers inside you. You gasp at the sudden intrusion.
It’s not as though you’re not ready for it.
You’re so wet you’d give her a snorkel if she wasn’t such an experienced sailor.
But she rides your high seas like it’s her full time job.
Lips on your clit, fingers working in and out. She squeezes your hip with her free hand. Her talented mouth is like fire. Dancing around just where you need it most.
You close your eyes and let out a low moan.
She’s being careful.
Gentle.
Loving you like she doesn’t want to hurt you.
You take back the impatience. You take back the need for more, more, more.
Your sweet, loving girlfriend is all you need.
Gentle mouth. Careful tongue.
Her between your legs, working you into oblivion like sex is just a vehicle to express how deeply she loves you.
“Tara.”
You cum with her name on your lips. Her mouth fused around your lips. You cum feeling safe and wanted and needed.
And when she’s done, she climbs back up your body and presses the softest kiss to your lips.
Nestles herself with her head in your chest. Right next to your heartbeat.
Where she should be.
You close your eyes once more.
Thread your fingers through her hair. Press the softest of kisses to her forehead.
And then she looks up at you, her pretty brown eyes shimmering.
“Love you.” She murmurs. She punctuates her words with a kiss.
Your chest is heaving. You allow yourself the moment. Body thrumming with your orgasm, the love of your life pressed tight to your side.
Tara curls into you. She waits a moment, then looks over at you,
“I’m going to be better for you,” She murmurs, “I’ve put you through hell, baby, and I know that. But it all ends now.”
You frown.
“I’m in heaven with you, no matter what you’ve done,” You say, after a quiet moment, “After what we’ve both done. Right or wrong, I love you. And you love me. And that’s all that matters.”
Tara tilts her head to yours.
She takes your lips in a long, searing kiss.
She says what she can’t with words.
You say it too.
And when you pull back, you know she understands.
She’s yours.
And you are undeniably, irrefutably, entirely:
All hers.

Part two was happier :(
Champagne Problems | Jenna Ortega
Warnings: none
Tumblr media
I basically got hate crimed on wattpad for this, so might as well share it <3
Part Two | champagne problems
Tumblr media
Your high heeled shoe collided into the floor, the rain droplets falling onto your face as you darted down the open street. Your heart clenched, aching from lack of love. Your life, your whole world came crashing down the second you saw your beautiful girlfriend kneel down infront of you, popping a question the both of you knew you'd never answer truthfully.
Finally, your body slumped into a train seat, hoping to dream away your recent life. Your heart was grief-stricken, your eyes doleful when you glanced at your open view of the forest infront of you. Your fingers played with the edge of the table, fingers occupied with the hem of the dangling fabric; praying to distract your mind from the chocolate brown eyes you fell in love with, and ultimately broke.
Your bottom lip quivered, eyes trembling with tears; your throat bobbled with tears, gasping as they fell. Your ears were covered, blocking out the white noise that took place outside your booth.
Your headphones were wrapped around your head, pressed to your ears. Music, music was always an escape. Music was a drug, you was a simple slave to any type of music. Your hands finally gave up, leaving the poor table rug; instead, fiddling with the wire of your headphone.
Humming to your self, the music brought some sort of distraction; deteriorating you from the nawaing pain seeping through your mind. The heavy sign leaving your lips caught the attention of the sweet liking women sat next to you. She nudged your shoulder, so you took off your headphones.
"Rough night, dear?" The older women asked, scooting over to the spear seat next to yours. You shuffled back, attempting to sniffle your tearful gasps.
"You could say that-"
Your arms were tightly wrapped around Jenna's body, swaying her in the refrigerator light. You laughed softly, giggling at how Jenna spun herself harder; her hair flicking into your face, turning the mood playful.
Jenna began to laugh, her fingers gently brushing her loose hair out of your face. She smiled when she finally saw your face. She smiled like no one was watching, revelling in the way you looked at her; nothing but love.
"I swear I love you more everyday." The brunette expressed, driving her lips forward and pressing them to yours. You gasped, placing your hands to her cheek; cupping her face as you kissed.
"I'm just so irresistible." You teased, pressing her lips to her nose; loving how it scrunched when you did. She stared at you, lifting herself up on her tip-toes.
"Kiss me!"
Your mind was fogged, plagued with the memories at how Jenna took up most of your younger life. Dating, falling in love with someone at such a young age was always magical. To Jenna's great horror, and your great amusement, you'd always tell people you and Jenna had a Disney love story.
You were 17, jenna was filming in some Disney channel episode in a school you attended. She smiled, you blushed and you two were already in love. Fast forward 3 years, and somehow you were still the same hopelessly in love teenager who couldn't stop her feelings for the pretty famous girl who starred in a film that took place in your school.
But at the end of every sad song, every tragic book; falling in love with someone and being in love with them were different things.
"Some one hurt you that bad?" In any other case you would be uncontrollable, hating every moment of the older women near you; her prying on your tragic story. But since your leg was bouncing, tears rimmed to your eyes; you couldn't care.
"I was proposed to today, my girlfriend asked me earlier-" once again, your mind wasn't set on the train. You was met with the unbearable sound of Jenna's family.
"I have no clue what Jenna's planning, I haven't seen her all day" Your question, your wonder to where your girlfriend was, made her sisters infront of you snicker to themselves; laughing into their champagne glass.
"She'll be here soon, don't worry your little mind." Mia her oldest sister promised, she pressed her body to yours holding you in a hug. Kissing your cheek, before leaving to talk to other members of the family.
Your body darted through different crowds of people. You had to talk to most of Jenna's family, but soon enough your body landed in the corner of the room; tucked away like a dirty lie.
Jenna walked over to the mic in the middle of the room, smiling with her award winning smile. She looked elegant, absolutely flawless. Your heart fluttered, face immediately flushing. Her eyes met yours, her smile etching even wider; her dimples hollowing out, bright white teeth flashing.
"There's my beautiful girl. Come up her, baby." Her hands guided you towards where she was standing. Your body froze, sinking into the floor when everyone in the room shifted their gaze towards you and how you was stuck to the wall like a fly.
You shuffled through the crowd, different members of the groups coo'd, awwing at how Jenna shifted on her feet; antsy for when you was near her.
"There we go." She greeted you, pressing a kiss to your cheek. She offered her hand, helping you get up the stairs. The moment your heel hit the floor, her arm was wrapped around your waist and you was tugged towards her.
"Mother, Father. Throughout my life you've always praised a life, promised me one full of love. Simply, I didnt believe you, not until I met my Y/N. Y/N, you're perfection, simple and easy. The light in the darkness, the rainbow in a storm, the colour when im blind. You're the love of my life, I don't think i'll ever be able to love, or have the capability to even think about loving another person as much as I love you. Famously, the day, not even hours after our first date, the one we're I got a Polaroid of you, I removed my mom's picture from my wallet and changed it to you. I've always had trouble with second guessing myself, but im so sure right now. Im so embarrassing in love with you that i know that this is right."
Your heart stopped. The words she said, the meaningful moments she shared with the crowd, they all built up to something you knew she would eventually work up to doing. Her smile, something you would kill to see, a sight that held a better view than the priceless paintings Jenna forced you to look at on your 5th date.
Your eyes glanced to the floor. Your jaw clenched, clamping down before the tear trickled down your cheek. Her family roared, screaming their adoration of the love you and Jenna shared, their words ringing through your ears. Jenna sighed, tucking her suit pants up before taking a knee.
Your eyes trembled shut, a steady gasp leaving your parted lips. The ocean leaked from your eyes, your teeth taking home in your bottom lip.
"Will you marry me?"
Your eyes rolled back, praying she didn't say those words; that she hadn't just asked something so intimate, so special infront of a crowd, her family of all people.
She smiled through teary eyes, her tears of happiness and the hope of being yours forever. You licked your lip through darkness, a cast of reality dawning on you.
"Jenna-" she looked up at you, her nose scrunched with how hard she was smiling. You noticed her freckles-
Throughout your relationship she was so insecure about her freckles, the way her nose, cheek and some part of her forehead was painted with brown dots; you always thought they were beautiful, more of her to love.
"Well, will you?" Jenna whispered, her eyes darting into the crowd of people, watching how her mom looked at her with sorrow.
"Yes." The words burnt to say, husking through your gritted teeth. Jenna's eyes flooded with relief, a slight nod and a ring was pushed onto your finger.
The crowd clapped, Jenna kissed your cheek and you officially destroyed any party of your mental health.
The music plastered through the room. Jenna's fingers were pressed into your back, your head resting on her shoulder.
"I need to tell you something." You mustered all the might in your system. Jenna pulled away slightly, her thumb rubbing down your cheek, scratching away the tear.
"Whats wrong, love?" She giggled, swaying to the side slightly. She was stil so foolishly in love, already head over heels for the fraud dream she stormed up the moments your lips released the strained, yes.
"I cant marry you."
Jenna stared wide eyes at you, her mouth catching flies. Her face suddenly distressed, baffled at your confession.
"Excuse me?"
Your eyes once again clenched shut, holding in a shaken sigh. You rolled your head to her shoulder; not wanting to cause a scene.
"I love you so much-" you whispered into her ear. She breathed heavy, arms tight around your waist, holding you still.
"But?" She hushed back. Just by the sound of her voice you could tell she was hurting, the way her throat swelled.
"I'm not ready, we're 20 Jenna. We still have the world to explore, we still haven't found ourselves yet. Don't you want to see what your life will turn out like before ending it and getting stuck with me?" There was many things floating through your mind, self doubt, insecurities, self worth. Jenna didn't deserved to be tied down by someone like you, you was a no one and Jenna was everything.
"You think you'd be stuck with me?" Her tone is shake, obviously caught off guard by the sudden realisation that her perfect life was just a fairytale she dreamed up of in her youth.
"You don't- you don't want to marry me?" She all but whimpered, her face red with hurt. Her eyes were tearful, glossy at the sight. She blinked, a tear trickled down her freckled cheek. You wanted to wipe it away, to whisper you was just being stupid and you'd love her until your last breath; but that wasn't your journey in life, you wasn't born to be hers; she wasn't born to be yours.
Your bottom lip trembled, you cursed yourself for having the nerve to cry in a moment like this. This wasn't your time to be emotional, you should be consoling Jenna, not yourself.
Your eyes rolled back before locking shut, an unsteady breath leaving your parted lips. Your jaw went slack, your tongue feeling heavy in your mouth. You had no reasonable excuse per say, you didn't have a good enough reason to not want to marry Jenna.
She was Jenna Ortega for crying out loud; Americans current heart throb, and for some strange and unknown reason, she wanted you.
Her fingers that were wrapped around your waist grew tight; she held on to you just incase you'd disappear, and when your body tugged away from her warm embrace she was right.
Everything was slipping out of her hands, so slowly that she had to watch with glassy eyes.
"I'm so sorry, Jenna." The only think you remember after shamefully muttering your half-hearted goodbyes was your heels slamming into the concrete floor, causing a scene at your own proposal.
"Y/N!" Jenna's broken down voice wept into the air, her disillusioned love screaming in her face; mocking her triumphs of having a life with you. Her tortured frame disappeared into the crowd the further your body traveled through the mist of strangers.
Her mom's voice bled into the air around her, her immediate family swarming her agonised body; leaching onto her sudden drama filled life, prying into her intimate business of her fallen love.
"You would have made such a lovely bride." Jenna's mom cooed into Jenna's ear, holding Jenna as her tearful sobs left her, she gasped on her own mourning full thoughts. Her mom brushed her brown hair, shushing Jenna, rocking her back and forth; cradling her like a screaming baby.
"What a shame she was fucked in the head." Jenna's mom knew she shouldn't have whispered such hateful words, knowing it would infuriate her daughter infront of her; but Natalie would do anything to stop her daughter from hating herself, even if that meant Jenna would hate her own mom for the time being.
"Mom! She's just confused, I sprung too much on her. She- she's Y/N, she's always been my Y/N, and-" Jenna teared herself away from the motherly touch of her mom, staring with a hurtful glare when the older women would spew such nonsense about someone she loved.
"We'll be fine."
You was riddled with shame, contagious of being a monster. How could you stand there and tell someone, someone who you had loved for the better part of your life that you couldn't marry them.
Jenna was perfect, she was the sun to your moon, the sand to your ocean, the sky to your clouds, the night to your stars. She was your everything and within one simple line, one single sentance everything blew up.
You was embarrassed she'd ask you in front of everyone, people you didn't know. That she'd ask you without having the presence of your own family, your own loved ones; that wasn't the whole reason you said no.
How could you amount to anything in a life like she had. She had luxuries, wealth and a last name that bought her any seat. She was miss perfect and you was just some girl she thought about on her days off.
You couldn't, you wouldn't put yourself through her busy scheduled years. It's one thing being a girlfriend to a famous person, it's another being their wife. You would have to live with her, move when she had to travel far away, her family would be yours. All the factors daunted down on you, fried your memory each time you'd thick about it too hard.
Jenna wanted a family, she wanted to be a mom. You didnt.
She would be such a good mom, she would be such a perfect wife; it was a shame you wouldn't be that for her.
"What happened?" The women asked again, hoping to bring some peice of mind to you; wanting to tied the last final puzzle pieces together.
"I left her dancing, I left without giving a reason." You mumbled bitterly out into the open space. Your face was turned towards the window, the mear thought of witnessing someone's reaction to your dirty deed twisted your stomach unpleasantly.
"I hope she won't remember all my champagne problems."
