So this is my first attempt at a Young Justice fanfic. The words in bold are important, and you will find out why once you read the whole story. It may be fairly cheesy, but I hope that you enjoy my angsty romance one shot of SuperMartian.
"You left me no choice M'gaan!" Connor screamed at his ex-girlfriend. He tried his best to hold his tears
and she was succumbed to the regret that filled her body. He added, "How could you mentally violate
me like that?" She tried to breathe, but finally caught herself. Her voice was scratchy but her eyes dried.
"We were so happy together. I couldn't stand the idea of you being mad at me. I guess I got so familiar,
used to the way I made you smile, that seeing you frown broke my heart." M'gaan replied as she began
to cry once more. The two had broken up harshly, and it was apparent that they were meant to be, to
be a couple once more. The rift between them had grown more and more vast and the time spent
together seemed to be increasingly insignificant.
Everyday Connor saw her with her new boyfriend; his heart ripped into pieces, and could not be put
together. For years they were so happy, and it seemed as though they would be together forever,
always. But now, the two stood in an empty room, having a heart to heart that was just plain awkward.
"I don't know if I can forgive you M'gaan. You meant so much to me and you've taken so much away, I
really don't know how we can make this work again, if we could ever work again. But, just know that I
feel terrible for breaking up with you. I really do, but you need to learn about what you're doing!"
"That is the problem," she began to cry, "I don't know what I'm doing Connor! I'm so lost and helpless,
I'm so sorry but I need you to show me…please Conner." Her arguments appeared to fall on deaf ears
losing this argument with the boy she first fell in love with. "I love you Connor, I always have, and it's all
my fault that we're not together, but I need help. I want to be with you! I really do, but it seems like my
best isn't good enough. I'm my own worst enemy. I need you to help me, maybe not as a boyfriend, but
friend?" Her eyes glimmered with innocence and sincerity.
"I…I want to help you M'gaan. But I'm afraid to get close to you now. I'm afraid that my heart won't,
can't take being around you anymore. It hurts, I never knew love could hurt this much. I was led to
believe that love was a superficial emotion, but Cadmus taught me wrong.
This broke Miss Martian's heart. She felt rejection and shame filled her body. She trembled and she
could barely stand. She fell to her knees, and buried her hands in her face. It seemed like her desire to
be with Superboy was fading away slowly. She couldn't understand her change, but she knew that it's
the change that is responsible for his feelings. He wants her to be the old M'gaan, and for her torture to
end.
It pained him to see her like this. He wondered what had made her change inside. It wasn't that her
looks changed, but something internally, mentally, had flipped a switch. Miss Martian became as scary
as Psimon psychically. She was down a dark path, and it seemed that Superboy was helpless to help,
though he wanted to with all his heart. He watched her cry, then stepped over to her and said to her, "
you're not alone M'gaan. You have Lagoon Boy. Go to him." He didn't want to say that, but he knew
letting her go would be the only way that the two could function on a team. He started to walk away, to
go leave her alone, but as he stepped halfway through the door way she called out to him.
"And if I don't want him," she barked. He turned to look at her face, reflecting tears. He wanted to stay,
if she wanted him to. He turned; shocked that she would say something like that. She continued, "
It's…it's you I want Connor. When I'm with La'gaan, I don't feel the same as I felt with you. Us felt so
real together. Like we were meant to be. I knew there was something when I first saw you. I was shy,
well not too shy, but I wanted to show you that I liked you from the start. I care so much about you, and
I need you in my life. Can't you see that Connor! La'gaan just isn't you and I just try to pretend that I
don't care anymore that you broke up with me. But who am I kidding," she scoffed, and wiped the tears.
"Want to know something Connor? I didn't talk to anyone the day you broke up with me. I simply went
to my room, locked the door, and cried…for hours. I cried so much because I had to, but just couldn't
know why you broke up with me that day. I know now, and I'm so sorry. You mean so much to me…"
"Don't do this to yourself M'gaan. Don't do this to me too. I told you why I did what I did," he started to
speak, interrupting her heartfelt speech. He walked close to her, knelt in front of her and continued,
"I…I know how I confronted you wasn't the easiest of terms, and the break up wasn't easy either, but
know that you really gave me no choice." He stood up and walked away from her. She felt so helpless,
just completely feeble and limp. His words were poisonous to her Martian ears, but she understood
what he had said, and somehow understood his exact reasoning. M'gaan was alone and she thought,
'you're right Connor. I'm still so sorry. I regret everything.' She could only voice thoughts, and it was hard
saying the exact words to him. She quickly stood up, and chased him. She saw him at the end of the dark hall.
"Don't walk away from me! Please Connor! I am really being honest with you, and I know you want to
tell me off, and you have every right to. I deserve it. I was a terrible girlfriend, and you were so great to
me that it was unjust of what I did. I don't know why I keep manipulating people, it comes naturally
cause maybe of who I am, but I don't want to believe it. I'm changing into something and this change,
it…it's really scary," she confessed shouting down the long hall of Mount Justice. Her tear filled gaze
hurts him, but he can't help but notice that they're the eyes he admired so much. He walked to her.
"Don't worry M'gaan," he said pulling her into a tight hug. She buried her head in his chest, unable to
speak, but she was content. He wrapped his arms securely around her petite frame saying softly to her,
"I know you're sorry. I'm sorry too. I wish we could turn back time, and fix this whole mess, but all I
know is that you need help. I'm here for you, like I've always been. Things have not been, well aren't
what they should be nowadays." She was silent in his arms, and he gently began to stroke her red hair,
"you're okay M'gaan, you always were." She was crying, and it felt so good for these feelings to be out.
Thinking only seemed to create more internal tension, but vocalization relieved their turbulent minds.
"I am so sorry Connor," she whimpered. This moment share between them seemed as if both teens
don't care about their past. This reconciliation is what mattered, and both were so happy. They just
need each other, and that's how it always has been. And being together in this hallway was bliss, "and
your hugs are really the greatest hugs I've gotten from anyone Connor," she mumbled. It seemed his
reasons to break up with her were foolish. It seemed stupid, but it wasn't stupid at all.
"Don't forget to wake up Connor," she whispered leaning up to his lips, gently kissing them. He sat up,
'tell me that wasn't a dream,' he thought to himself. He looked around; he was in his bed, alone. 'Why
me…why do I have to deal with this! That dream was so…beautiful. If only it were real…if only it was, just
cause it was so vivid.' He rubbed his eyes then looked in his room. Empty. His heart panged, dreaming
hurts, because they remind him of what he wants, what he can't have, what he can't say.
Alright so I think I'm starting a new style where I use song lyrics to format my story. The lyrics used for this song is from the beautiful ballad "Don't Speak" by No Doubt. I love that song, and if you don't know it, go listen to it. If you enjoy The Legend of Korra go read my stories! And if you liked this one, please review, and I may write more! - Fire Bender
