Disclaimer: As stated in the previous chapter, I do not own The Fairly Odd Parents.
Author's Notes: The second installment in my Cosmo/Wanda short stories. This story will be based on the Season 4 episode "Just the Two of Us" including dialog/summation of the episode as a set up. I apologize now if this seems too much like the actual episode. This story is rated K.
You Don't Trust Me?
Timmy was on the ice rink and had just gotten ignored by Trixie again, his friend Chester rubbing it in his face, in a sense. The tone of Chester's voice wasn't taunting or mean, just factual because they were friends. Timmy rolled his hands into fists, glaring at the crowd of boys surrounding his long-time crush. "That's it!" he shouted. "I wish I was the only boy in school," he said firmly.
"Careful with that wish, sport. Being alone with someone for a long time can get annoying if it's not the right person," Wanda replied, surreptitiously pointing to Cosmo, mostly joking.
Cosmo had been staring at Timmy but then looked over at his wife blankly. Then he began to look worried. "What are you trying to say?" he asked, then taking on a dramatic air. "Are you leaving me? I thought you loved me!" the fairy cried aloud, clinging to his wife. Wanda in turn frowned in annoyance, raised her arm and granted the wish. When Chester, A.J., and all of the other recognizable boys from Dimmsdale Elementary disappeared from the rink (and the rest of the town), Timmy started to approach Trixie again. A few feet before he got there a French boy slid in front of him and courted the girl.
Timmy grumbled under his breath as Wanda floated over to her charge, Cosmo still attached. "You should have been more specific," she chided lightly.
"Fine," the ten year old sighed. "I wish I was the last boy on Earth."
Wanda looked down and to the right. "Do you mind?" she asked her husband, her tone of voice annoyed.
"Sorry," he said immediately, pulling away from her. He watched as the pink-haired woman granted the wish. This time the godparents witnessed the Yugopotamian prince, Mark intervening before Timmy got within six feet of Trixie.
"OH give me a break!" he cried out, head flopping backwards on his neck to stare at the ceiling for a moment or two. "How 'bout I wish Trixie and I were the only two humans and/or intelligent lifeforms on Earth BESIDES my Fairy God Parents and Trixie didn't question why?" he wished in one big breath.
"Now you're being specific!" Wanda exclaimed, pointing at the boy.
"I can be specific too," Cosmo said indignantly but then paused. "About some things…" he trailed off, silence filling the room for a moment before the couple granted the wish. It was a short while later, after raiding the mall that Wanda and Cosmo made themselves known to Timmy again, appearing as hamburg patties on the grill he was using.
Wanda, ever the rational, thinking-ahead fairy she was, shared her opinion on the wish. "Well sport, what do you say you wish everything back the way it was before you-know-who gets a little you-know-what?" she asked, referencing Trixie.
"You know who?" Cosmo questioned, gaining the gaze of his wife. "You're talking about me, aren't you?" he asked, once again dramatic. He was now glaring at her. "Why do you hate me?" This time, Wanda glared back at him, eyes opening fully as Timmy used the spatula to flip his godfather over. Timmy thought that the wish was one of his best yet and ignored what his godmother had to say, going off to spend time with his love.
It was about six hours later when Timmy met up with Wanda again. "I've gotta unwish this wish!" he cried, finally seeing what Trixie was like without all the constant attention from guys she received, now craving it all from Timmy.
"Good idea," Wanda agreed, about to happily grant his wish, but then a jealous Cosmo showed up.
"Oh, so you're with HIM again?" he asked, moving closer and holding his wife away from Timmy as he said "She's mine pal! Back off punk!" before poofing away. Timmy was once again on his own. He did his best trying to avoid Trixie but it was difficult. He rolled into one of the more open aisles as Wanda appeared.
"Timmy, you need to wish fast because—" She was unable to finish the sentence, or grant an unspoken wish, because her husband had poofed there.
"Timmy, Timmy, Timmy. What about MY needs?" he yelled clinging to the woman before poofing away again. "We're in the book section. Timmy would never look here!" he claimed, looking around suspiciously.
"Cosmo stop!" Wanda spoke sternly pushing herself away from the man. "I've been with you for more than 10,000 years. Don't you think that if I wanted to leave, I'd have left by now?" she asked, trying to reason with him. If this didn't work she didn't know what she could do, especially with enough time left to get back to their godchild and save him.
"Maybe…" he agreed sheepishly looking away slightly. He didn't like admitting yes or no, so he almost always answered in the neutral, somewhat safe ground of 'maybe'.
"Oh I love you, you idiot. Now give me a hug!" Wanda said going to him and squeezing him. Cosmo had once again shifted moods and began to pretend like she was hugging too tightly and that he was choking, hence his face turning blue.
"Can't…break—free. Suffocating." he said through gasps of air, trying to break free of her embrace. "I need my space." When she finally did he began to bite at his fingernails. "Is this what it's like for Timmy? Ooh I gotta unwish this wish!" he said before disappearing to help the child. Wanda rolled her eyes and sighed overly loud before following suit.
"Hi Timmy!" Cosmo exclaimed, despite the serious mess surrounding his godchild in a sandwich store. "Woah, talk about your messy break-ups"
"Quick! Unwish the wish!" Wanda said, arms spreading as Cosmo flinched away from her.
He wasn't really terrified of her, but he was wondering how long he could keep up the charade. Perhaps he could earn himself an apology gift later for acting this way. "Quit following me!" He said, pulling an angry face. His green eyes went past his pink-haired wife and widened exponentially. Pointing over her left shoulder, Cosmo screamed as the end of a helicopter headed their way. Wanda pulled her husband out of the way just in time as the helicopter lodged itself into the counter and slowly made its way down to try to cut Timmy in half.
"I wish all the people on Earth were back! And by people I mean people AND aliens! And I wish Trixie didn't remember any of this!" Timmy yelled out hastily as the top spike of hair got skimmed off by the helicopter tail.
Wanda didn't know why he couldn't make the wish while rolling out of the destructive path of Trixie, but granted the wish with Cosmo before their godson got hurt. Everything was soon back to normal and Timmy and his friends were back in Chemistry class. Timmy sat between Chester and A.J. rejoicing in the fact that he was surrounded by people again. But mostly that he wasn't being chased by the prettiest girl in school anymore.
Cosmo and Wanda watched the scene unfold and she smiled shaking her head. "Aw, poor Timmy. Some day he'll figure out that you have to find someone he has the right chemistry with. Get it Cosmo?" She asked, looking at him, obviously implying their long-lasting relationship and how they were comfortable with each other but not bored.
Cosmo glared at her. "Stop breathing my air!" he yelled before trying to naw off the arm she held. Wanda has the urge to tell him to stop with the act but instead decided that a physical response would be best, so she pulled him closer and leaned in to plant a kiss on his lips.
"Will you stop it now? I thought we trusted each other" she whispered, her face still close enough that their noses were touching.
"Uh…maybe?" he asked, looking down and to the left. Of course he trusted her. He just got…confused sometimes. "Can you kiss me again?" he asked innocently.
Wanda laughed lightly. "You know the answer to that Cosmo," she said, watching as his eyes met hers again before he kissed her, grinning like a fool.
