once upon a dream

“I can’t believe you got this hurt.” Despite her best efforts to not worry him, Christopher only grows more worried at the tone of her voice. How is he supposed to gloss over head trauma? Though, he can’t figure out what else to say, so he lets the silence dwell until his sister is reaching out.

His face must speak for him, though, because as soon as he opens his mouth he’s already being pulled into a hug. “You’re going to drive me crazy. You can’t just force me to hug you, that’s definitely not how you cuddle.” He says, though his point fades as he willingly moves so they are actually cuddling. “You’re lucky that I believed mother when she said that. I think it really works, even now.” Humming for a moment, he continued, “Do you remember when I came back with that nasty infection and a rash after I had been on a trip with father and you helped her take care of me? The rash cleared so quickly and so did the infection, I think I got better so fast because both of you doted on me.” He concluded, smiling because of the memory. “So I’ll play into this, but only because you used that against me and not at all because I care to cuddle you.”

For all his teasing, Gwens knows that her little brother is truly a softie deep inside, especially for her, and just shows it in different ways. She appreciates and loves this side of him for it is what makes Christopher his own unique self -- exactly the one she loves dearly.

“It was an accident so there’s really no one to blame for me getting hurt.” She reminds him, pressing a kiss to his forehead like how she always did when he was little and not almost a whole foot taller than her. The two of them barely fit in the single hospital bed but they make it work just the same similar to the many nights the two of them sneaked into each other’s rooms in the palace to stay up all night cuddling, telling nonsense stories and just hanging out. It reminds Gwen so much of home but having Christopher around surely eases a bit of the homesickness. “Mother almost blew up at father when she saw you; she was so so angry that father had spent nearly three days bribing her with flowers and chocolates.” Recounting the memory makes her laugh and she squeezes him in her arms. “You always give me so much to do as your big sister but I love you anyways.”

from the way the girl was smiling incessantly, mark could almost feel the discomfort radiating from her. he had a way with people, he feels, and it seemed as though it was more so bad than good. which doesn’t really bother him; if this was the way he is, he won’t simply change because others don’t like him. they either do or they don’t; it was as simple as that.

“pleasure to make your acquaintance. don’t be; people don’t even look in my direction most of the time, scared i might turn them to stone or something. so you talking to me is definitely a huge leap for humanity.” he nodded at her words, not exactly caring for what happened, but just wanting to get this little ‘study date’ done and over with. “that sounds awful, i hope you’re feeling better,” which was technically a lie, but he had to show her that he was at least a considerate asshole. “i’m not even sure if that’s true, but whatever floats their boat.” he shrugged.

“i tend to gravitate towards bad boys so this really isn’t anything new. more than anything, i’m just hoping that we can be actual friends after this.” as usual, the smile she sends his way is as sincere as her words. the titles hero or villain and royal or rebel have never really been a factor for the friendships she makes; for gwen, a person’s background or personal beliefs should not stop her from making friends. everyone has different beliefs but it doesn’t mean that there aren’t any common points from which people can bond over.

at his concern, gwen merely shrugs as she flips open her notebook. “it’s water under the bridge now but i guess i’m just pretty overwhelmed with everything that i miss, you know?” she nibbles on her finger and tucks a strand of her behind her ear as she scans her notebook. “so, what you agree to help me out? i suppose i owe you an apology for forcing this upon you. i mean you can be out spending your afternoons on dates with cute girls but here i am taking up your time.”

mark stared at the unbelievable amount of books stacked in a neat pile in front of him. he had been assigned the task of accompanying a fellow classmate in her studies to keep her up to date with the assignments and semester requirements. he looked over them three times already, maling sure they were what they were the correct pages and contents. though one thing in his mind was left uncertain; why him when there were dozens of other students that could take his place.

mark chuckled to himself, thinking about how it might make him a better person. he doubted it at every waking moment. he looked up at the source of the voice that almost startle him, but he remained confined to his seat despite the sudden squirm. “i am. and i’m gonna take a wild guess that you’re gwen then?” he gave her a fake smile, his lips curling up in the slightest.

meeting new people isn’t exactly something new to the princess and most often than not, she conducts herself pretty well during such situations but there’s something about mark than makes gwen feel a little nervous. she tries not to let it get to her as she flashes him another one of her signature eye smiles. “ding ding ding, we have a winner!” she jokes, trying to make a more comfortable atmosphere between them and fervently hoping that it works.

“but yup, that’s me. the one and only gwen. it’s nice to finally meet you. i feel bad that we’re a couple of months into the school year already and yet this is our first conversation.” the pile of books on the side of the table remind her of the real purpose of their meeting and she has to visibly hold back a sigh as she thinks about how much work the two of them have to do. “i was told that you’re really good at crownculus so i’m in good hands working with you. i’m usually on top of all my schoolwork but i just got out of the hospital after recovering from a major accident hence all the backlog.”

she wished she really didn’t have to be sorry about anything but infact, she did have to be–and was actually sorry about a couple of things. such as potentially ruining everyone’s futures, yes just her being in the past, could demolish a couple of things. turns out just one girl could change the world, mostly in a negative way if she’s travelled back in time. “you’re honestly such a sweetheart, what would I do without you” reaching over to give Gwen’s hand a gentle squeeze she walks up and places a hand firmly behind Gwen’s head, her arm coming to coil around Gwen’s waist “ To prevent whiplash and–other drastic things” she explains a tad bit too cheerfully “I’m not going to make any crash jokes because that’s not funny anymore–just what exactly happened Gwen? you’re way better now right?” teagane’s eyes grew determined to not slam the poor girl into a wall or the floor, she had fallen enough times. There was a feeling in her heart that this time, she’d make it smoothly around the campus.

she lets Gwen know before she darts, to her the world had ‘slowed down’ everything was clear and easy to maneuver around. she had kept a solid hold on Gwen as the ‘blur’ of ink and blue darted through all the hallways and corridors and in a flash, the two girls stood in front of their dorm room, Teagane attentively checking on her friend “ How you holding up? If you gotta throw up you need to let me know right now” she giggles and keeps a hold on her for Gwen may be experiencing some dizziness.

it warms gwen’s heart to hear her roommate so concerned about her but she’s honestly feeling so much better so all the worrying is no longer warranted. yes, she got into a really bad accident but she has recovered from it now so there’s no need to treat her so carefully though the princess does appreciate the gesture. “don’t worry about, tea, i’m feeling much much better. i honestly feel as good as new so it’s all good!” poking the other girl’s cheek affectionately, she hopes that her words are reassuring enough because she’s excited to run to their dorm in inhumane speed -- a first experience for her if ever. always wanting to try new things, there’s no way gwen is letting such an opportunity pass and she hopes than teagane lets her partake of the chance. her wish is granted and suddenly the world moves too fast but it’s nothing too scary and nothing she can’t handle. “what are you talking about? i’m having so much fun here!! this is amazing!”

Christopher laughed, “My tutors taught me exactly what they taught you. You don’t make any sense.” He shook his head at her, busying himself with getting comfortable. Though, in his midsts he stopped and pointed at her. “Hey, did they not teach you to love your caring little brother, huh? Is that what you’re admitting?”

After the staring fest is ended with a kick to his thigh, he can’t help but wrinkle his nose at her as swats at the same leg that gave him the playful kick. “Next time, be safer or I’ll end up being like an older brother instead of the little one.” He warned, but was smiling none the less. “Of course I’d be here, where else would I want to spend my limited free time? Plus, I’m off my phone now, leave it be!” He drew out the be, letting it turn into a whine almost. But, even through his teasing and the whine to be left alone, it was clear he wouldn’t have stayed away from her too long. It just wasn’t how they worked. “I can’t remember if you told me when you would be up and at it again. Did you?”

“I got a couple of stitches and there’s still monitoring the head trauma so I guess another two more weeks at the earliest?” She answers with a shrug, trying to act nonchalant about the extent of her injuries because she doesn’t want him to worry. Another moment of silence passes between them but Gwen easily breaks it by holding her arms out for her brother and reaching for him like a baby wanting to be carried would.

Christopher looks at her weirdly and she knows he’s trying to weigh his options but before he can completely refuse her, she decides for him and pulls him onto a hug. “You can be taller and bigger than me but you’re always going to be my baby. And since I’m also currently the patient here, I am demanding some cuddles with you right now. Remember how mother always told us that the best medicine in the world is love? I’m definitely using that on you now.” She proclaims playfully, leaving him with no room for argument.

ezio’s heart lightens up when he sees gwen’s mood elevating. better than a darker place for sure. the mutant smiles, glad that he was able to cheer her up to the best of his ability.

he blushes before chuckling under his breath. turning to see her bright smile, “now that’s more like it! look at that smile. oh i can just marvel at it like the finest jewels in the world.” he purrs at his friend affectionately. staring at the card in her hands, it was one of the things he did for the people he loved. gwen was surely valued in his eyes, its why the playing card of her eternal beauty is in her hands. “of course! from my own heart and soul.” he laughs with her, “chere, you do look like you’re a goddess. which is exactly what the card is portraying you. they don’t call you beauty just ‘cause.” smirking at her.

#p;pennyforyourthoughts #eaxezio

“now you’re clearly just buttering me up.” she exclaims, wrinkling her nose at him as if she doesn’t feel exceptionally flattered by his compliments. as she smiles and laughs along with him, she feels her mood lifting up completely and the heaviness in her heart dissipating little by little. the feeling of being happy (though not completely) feels like a much needed breath of fresh air after days of sadness and loneliness. she eyes the masterpiece with fondness and total affection now that she has realized why he has given it to her -- it’s an extremely thoughtful gift and the fact that she hadn’t expected it at all makes it even more special. “it really is a work of art even though i’m pretty sure i don’t look this beautiful but thank you anyway. it’s one of the best gifts i’ve ever received.”

it’s only the first day since she has been back from school and already gwen is swamped with all the schoolwork and responsibilities she needs to catch up with. two weeks now seems to be so much longer than it really is with all the work that she has to get done. yes, she admittedly enjoyed the short and unexpected break her accident has given her but a small part of her wishes that she came back to school sooner if only to lessen her workload.

“hey, you must be mark. sorry, i’m late.” she slides onto the cafeteria bench slightly panting from all the running around she has been doing all day but still doesn’t forget to flash a bright smile to the person waiting for her. though the haven’t talked before, he is a familiar face seeing as they take the same classes together. “i was told that you’ll be helping me out with crownculus.”

Accident

“Don’t push yourself, your brain needs a break.” She advised, lightly messing the others already insane bed-head. “Besides, it wasn’t anything worth remembering.” It was for Gwen’s sake that she didn’t remember the Erik run in, or the girls remarks or even her own mistake. Sometimes things don’t always need to be remembered, some things were better left forgotten. “hey now, don’t steal my title of ‘most hated’ along with ‘most loved’ those took ages to win.” She teased right back, noticing the other wasn’t really keen on jokes today. “They don’t hate you, perky president. Everyone, especially around here, loves a fallen hero…I guess they wanted it to not only be metaphorical.”

“A month at worst if you try to push it, but it should only be a week or so.” She explained, shivering at the weird thought of being the doctors office. Even at the hospital she felt out of place, an immortal among the ill, the dying, and the already dead. Upon hearing the others words pulled her out of her own mind, glancing over and sighing at the other. “I always get what I want, but I don’t even know what I want…if it’s any condolence.” Pulling some junk food from her bag, she piled it on the table before smiling. “From Kay, he said that he would come visit but he hates hospitals and doesn’t want whatever you have.” She teased, trying to take her mind off her destiny.

Gwen knows that she should be thankful that nothing more serious happened to her since so many others lie dying while others are desperately wishing for better health in the rooms next to hers. It’s an extremely humbling thought and also one that puts her feelings into perspective. Just because she’s suffering from a broken heart, it doesn’t mean she can host a pity party for herself when she clearly still has so many reasons to be thankful.

“Ugh, it’s going to be terrible catching up with everything I’m going to miss in school.” She complains with a wrinkle of her nose. “You have to promise me that you’ll sneak in food for me. I feel like I’ll get even more sick just eating hospital food.” This time, she’s clearly grinning as she speaks, her mood clearly lifted. She tries not to dwell on any more negative thoughts and pushes a certain blonde dark fairy out of her mind too. It’s obvious that Ophelia is trying very hard to lift her spirits so the least Gwen can do is not act like such a pain in the butt. She eyes the packets of chips and cookies with much excitement, realizing belatedly how hungry she really is. “He knows already? That was fast but please tell him I said thanks. I always knew he could be sweet if he wanted to.”

Straining his neck to look back at the bedridden girl, he mirrored her pout. “If you were more fun to visit, I wouldn’t care more about what other people are doing online, ever think of that one?” Despite his words, he was already standing up to make his way to her. “I have no love for my big sister, but if you move your feet so I can sit down on something softer than that couch, I might find it in my heart.”

It was only teasing, by now they were both used to it, and if Christopher were honest there was no doubt he would rather spend time with his sister than scroll on his phone endlessly. Especially after how worried he had been after first hearing about the injury, so her request for attention is an open door for their banter, but in the end, he always gives in. It helps to remember that the roles are often switched, and she’s the one spoiling him.

“You always find it in your heart to love your big sister. Didn’t your tutors teach you any better?” As the big sister, Gwen nagging at Christopher usually happens by default. Everyone knows how much she loves her little brother, it’s nearly impossible for her to say no to her little prince, and how she takes every chance there is to spoil him but just like any big sister, she wants the best for him all the time and won’t hesitate to keep him in check.

Despite their exchange of words, nothing changes the fact that they are siblings who often express their love through teasing. They stare at each for a good few seconds before Gwen playfully kicks his thigh once he settles down on her bed. She smiles at him, her eyes shining with pure affection for her little brother, as she scoots to make more room for him. “I’m sorry for making you worry. But I’m really glad you’re here, I hope you know that. It means a lot...even if you were on your phone most of the time.”

Hospital stays are extremely boring, that much Gwen has concluded, and she doesn’t understand how a person is supposed to get better while being surrounded by all this gloom and seriousness. It’s only been a few days since she began her stay after the cheer practice accident but she’s already counting down the days to her release. Honestly, she feels fine and has said so so many times but apparently head traumas are really serious injuries.

A number of schoolmates have visited her and those have been the better days spent in the hospital. She misses her friends and misses school; she misses the hustle and bustle of school life because all she ever does in the hospital is lay down and rest. Gwen longs for some form or entertainment.

“Are you just going to look through your phone all day? What’s the point of visiting me then?” She asks with a huff, pouting at the tall figure desperately trying to fit their long legs on the sofa by the window. “You’ve come all the day here so why don’t you be a dear and give your big sister some love instead of just sitting there?”

Accident

“Oh, good. You’re awake.” Ophelia whispered to herself as she walked into the room to find sleeping beauties daughter wide awake. Before the blonde girl could say anything else, Ophelia slid the tray of food in front of her and handed her water bottle with a straw. “Drink up, you are severely dehydrated and it’s super gross to see that drip.” She pointed to the iv in her arm that lead to a translucent liquid inside the baggy that was hanging off a hook like pole.

“You fell, partially my fault but mostly those bitch ass underclassmen who will feel my fury when we get back to school.” She explained, already starting to answer the questions she knew she was going to ask. “We came to the hospital because you were bleeding out and you were going to die. Thankfully, they were able to stop the bleeding so you are fine.” After a beat, she shook her head slowly. “You shouldn’t go back to cheerleading for at least a few weeks, this wasn’t just a concussion, Gwen. It was head trauma.”

Standing up, Ophelia moved the other’s hair out of her face gently. “No one is stopping you from coming to practice but for the rest of the day, you should take it easy.” She whispered before indicated to the food, “human hospitals are shitty, but you should eat up. You’ve been sleeping for awhile, it was as if you were practicing for the real thing.” She joked softly wanting to cheer the other up.

It’s only when she tries to open her mouth and talk does Gwen realize how thirsty she is and swallowing feels like somebody has poured a tub of sand down her throat. She doesn’t hesitate to take the proffered bottle of water and immediately takes long gulps from it with the aid of the straw. It brings her immediate relief, thankfully, but actually does very little to take away the pounding of her head.

“I barely remember anything. Everything is so fuzzy.” She complains to the other, making a face of displeasure when she tries to make sense of what happened before she woke up in the hospital. Gwen knows she should feel some kind of emotion, possibly anger, for what had happened to her but no such feeling ever comes -- instead, she just feels extremely tired and sleepy (more so than usual). “It was that bad, huh? I didn’t realize everyone else on the team hated me that much. People always like to me, it seems.” She jokes but the smile never really reaches her eyes.

“How long do I have to stay here for since it’s a head trauma? Did the doctors say anything?” She asks, looking at the tray of food with mild interest. Ophelia is right, the hospital food looks so unappetizing that Gwen wonders if she can get away with not having to touch it until eventually deciding that she’ll try eating later. “A part of me wished that this accident will begin my destiny instead of how it’s really supposed to go, you know? But I never get what I want.”

although ezio knows that it’s all up to gwen to heal her heart, he won’t be abandoning her like those so called people she had just mentioned. what kind of a friend would be so petty to the most fairest person at eah? the mutant smiles as he pats her shoulder, her head still on his shoulder.

“haha. i’m always grateful for you, belle. it’s what friends are for!” smiling brightly at her, which he never really does around others when he arrived at eah. cheeks rosy as she poked him. “oh. i’ve been meaning to give you this for a while.” he spoke up with a sincere tone, taking his other free hand and waving it aimlessly. a playing card appeared in his hand, handing it to her. the card displayed a beautiful portrait of gwen. “here. just thought you need a little something for yourself, a little reminder that you’re beautiful, inside and outside. and whoever doesn’t appreciate you, is missing out.” winking at her playfully.

#p;pennyforyourthoughts #eaxezio

the healing process will not be easy, that much gwen knows for sure, but after having this conversation with ezio, she feels a little more reassured that she’ll be able to get through with it. she has felt so alone these last couple of days now more so with erik and her no longer together so hearing his reassurance has given her a tad bit more courage.

feeling extremely grateful, she pulls back and pecks her friend’s cheek. being sad is not an excuse for her to stop being herself so there shouldn’t be any reason to stop her from showing affection for someone she truly appreciates. she’s still smiling when ezio hands her the small playing card. a little confused at first, her expression soon blossoms into absolute delight when she turns the card over and sees the beautiful picture. “did you make this?” she asks, clearly in awe. “it’s so beautiful! are you sure this is really me. i don’t think i look like this.” she laughs.

Teagane attempts a few takedowns, almst always did her feet slide out from under her, this short ranged battle against goons was not going well till it all went down and she got herself into a headlock.

And very much like it’s in the movies, the ‘cavalry’ arrived. A single-woman army, the girl with enough power to hae a student bed for mercy, leaving the life of wrongdoings forever. Campus police, as Teagane fondly refered to them. She looked to Gwen with an apology in her eyes, it did suck having powers yet being a weakling. She gasps for air when the beefy arm preing at her throat finally moves off. In a flash she grabs for her books bag and notebook, the trail of pink and blue sizzled its way to Gwen’s side, glaring holes at the boys that were backing up in somewhat disappointment.

“I’m so sorry” she finally breathes when the boys are out of sight and turns to Gwen guiltily “ I wish things were different–but Im so glad you came when you did– all my research is in here..all the answers I managed to gather” she fondly caresses at her notebook and quickly shoves it down in the safety of her bag. “If you want, as payback, I can help you make a quick round of the campus, see if there’s trouble else where. This way we can head back to the dorm faster…” she laughs sheepishly, gaze averting “ unless..you’re afraid we’d crash–I would totally understand I mean I’m a mess.” a shrug and she carefully takes off her glasses,noticing a dent in the frame she sighs softly. Not like she needed them, she simply wanted her disguise to be in top shape. She wanted to ask how her younger self, Stephanie, was doing. For obvious reasons Teagane couldn’t provide a helping hand and she surely remembered being a lost dweeb in the early years. Yet she didn’t want to seem like she was taking advantage of Gwen’s position in school. Most importantly her younger self had to go through all the experiences in store for her, any ‘help’ or ‘support’ could vary the time line.

“You don’t have to be sorry about anything.” As her fairy godmothers always tell her, good deeds should be done out of love and compassion and never in exchange for anything. The princess has always remembered and heeded her godmothers words so this time isn’t any different. Saving Teagane is something she really wanted to do out of concern for her roommate’s well being and seeing that the other is safe and well is already enough compensation for having to face the bullies.

The suggestion makes her laugh and honestly, she’s quite intrigued about the extent of the other’s abilities. She knows that the reason why Teagane is hiding her true identity is because she ran so fast that she crossed back in time but Gwen has never seen the girl make actual use of her power. Biting her lip, she ponders on the pros and cons of having Teagane use her powers to get them to dorm faster until ultimately deciding it’s worth the shot. “I guess I’ll never know if you’d crash us until I try it.” She admits with a grin. “So, how about that ride?”
