After reading the latest chapter and all the theories afterwards I came up with this.
MC's name: Lucy
Kamilah x MC
Words: 1148
Lucy felt terrible as she walked back to Takeshi's place. A shiver went down her spine as the thought of her latest discovery starts to settle in.
No matter what scenario Kano and her went through. In all of them she would lose her friends or they were losing her.
Feeling very uncomfortable Lucy stroked her arms. A tear rolled down her cheek.
How was she able to safe them? How could anyone expect her to sacrifice her friends? And Kamilah... What about Kamilah? She wanted to be with her, wanted to live a happy life with her.
More and more tears dropped as reality hit her.
‘Fuck’, Lucy thought, ‘Fuck everyone and everything!’
It wasn’t fair. Is it too much to ask for a happy life? Couldn’t she just wake up in Kamilah’s arms every day? Going to work work with Adrian and having fun nights with Lily or visiting Jax? Was it really too much?
Anger grew inside of her mixing up with the sadness and hurt she felt deep in her heart.
By the time Lucy reached Takeshi’s place her body was shaking. Her trembling hand lingered on the handle and her sobs filled silence around her.
How was she supposed to tell them? How could she explain to her friends that stopping Rheya meant for them to die?
Big hot tears clouded her sight and rolled down her cheeks.
She wanted to wipe them away but instead her hand stayed there trembling in front of her eyes. Suddenly her knees started shaking as well and her legs felt weak.
Lucy sank down sitting on the ground.
The others felt her presence and heard her sobs immediately.
Adrian opened the door and was a little surprised but worried to find his assistant and friend on the floor crying violently.
“Lucy?”, he said and knelt down to put a comforting hand on her shoulder.
Lucy looked up at him and seeing his concerned face made her feelings even worse. But she was also relieved to see him. It made her feel comfortable to have her friend near her.
Only with an eye blink of hesitation Lucy threw her arms around his neck and cried in his shoulder.
A little overwhelmed he gently stroked her back and looked back to the others.
Kamilah looked very concerned and Adrian saw that she wanted to pull lucy into her arms and comfort her even if she wouldn’t admit it.
Jax looked just as concerned and ready to crush someones face if he had to.
Lily was the only one that walked up to them clearly wanting to comfort her best friend.
“Lu, what happened?”, she asked.
The bloodkeeper let go of Adrian and looked at her best friend with reddened eyes. She took a deep breath to stop crying for the moment to brace herself for saying goodbye to her friends.
Eventually Lucy rised up to walk over to Kamilah, her love which she still hasn’t confessed to her.
“I’ll tell you... Just give me a second.”, Lucy said.
Adrian closed the door as Lucy wrapped her arms around Kamilahs neck now. But a little less hysteric as before.
She needed her right now. She needed to feel her warmth and Kamilah was happy to provide it for her. The older vampire put her arms around Lucy’s waist and held her close.
Kamilah gently stroked Lucy’s back and waited patiently for her to tell them what happened.
The others sat down and waited as well. Eventually Lucy decided to sit down as well and so they did. She never let go of Kamilah’s hand.
Lucy took a deep breath before talking.
“I... Kano and I used our psychic abilities to... to play out some scenarios of how the fight with Rheya might proceed and end.”, Lucy started to explain what caused her breakdown.
“I guess they didn’t end so well.”, Jax said and Lucy nodded.
“We win. We defeated her in all of them but... But not without some of us dying.”; Lucy blurted out with tears rolling down her cheeks again.
“Everytime you all died or some of you and if you survived... then I died. No matter what happened... I don’t want to lose you. I can’t...”, Lucy cried and leaned into Kamilah who put her arm around her shoulders to pull her into a hug again.
Lily joined them. She wanted to comfort her best friend as well and sat down on Lucy’s other side trying to be there for her.
Kamilah wasn’t sure what so say. She wanted to tell her that she would die for her if it meant saving the world and her. But she knew it wouldn’t help Lucy to calm down right now.
Helplessly she looked at Adrian who sat opposite from them. He was just about to say something when Jax already spoke up.
“It were just visions right? They don’t have to become reality right?”
“The night before Rheya’s party I had a dream about her covered in blood. It turned out to be true as well.”, Lucy answered.
“Maybe but you didn’t do anything to prevent it from happening right? This time we could do something. Also we won’t leave your side until the end, until Rheya is truely defeated. No matter what happens we will go through it together as a team, a family even and we will pay the price that’s necessary to succeed if we have to.”, Adrian said.
“I promised to protect you. I will fight alongside you and keep that promise. I won’t let anything hurt you. You’re very important to me.”, Kamilah finally spoke up and kissed Lucy’s forehead.
The bloodkeeper looked up at her and smiled lightly. Her soft side always helped her to calm down and to feel better. It’s one of the things she loved most about Kamilah.
“You’re my best friend and we promised to go through everything together. No matter what happens i’ll be there for you and we will kick Rheyas ass. hell yeah, I’ll make sure of it!”, Lily added and nudged her friend slightly.
Lucy smiled more and wiped away the tears.
“You’re right. I’m sorry I... You’re right we will do this together and after everything that happened I want to believe we can find a solution and make it together. I love you guys.”, she said.
“We love you too.”, Lily said squeezing her best friend.
“But I love you the most.”, Kamilah whispered right into her ear giving her a soft kiss on the cheek.
Lucy smiled and turned her head around so she could kiss Kamilah on the lips. She didn’t care about the others being around them. This was what really took the fear out of her for a moment, what made her feel a lot better and now she knew that they could overcome this new challenge together.
Let me know what you think. It’s the first time I wrote a “oneshot”. I hope you like it :).
