The Shattered Bond

Chapter 3: Things have Changed
Pov: Cosmo and Wanda


PoV: Wanda

I positioned myself in front of the mirror and pulled open the drawer to reveal various brands of makeup. Looking into the mirror I carefully applied the glittering eyeshadow and the black eyeliner. After that, I layered on some mascara and finished with lipstick the color of pomegranate seeds. I licked my bottom lips giving it a wet shine.

"Wanda, get me a beer!" Wandissimo shouted from the living room.

Sighing I slowly stood up and made my way into the kitchen. Opening the fridge, I pulled out a can from the very back and closed the fridge.

"Here you go honey," I said handing him his beer. Then with one swift motion, he ripped it from my hands.

*SssKa*

Taking a seat next to him I waited for him to finish taking a drink as to not anger him any further.

"I got new makeup." He peers my way, face resolutely unimpressed.

"Why should I care?" He stated coldly.

"What are you looking at? Don't you have some dishes to be doing?" He questions and takes another sip of his beer, clearly annoyed by my presence.

"Why do you hate me so much?" I ask, tears starting to build in my eyes. He looks over at me, with that same threatening glance he gives when he is about to hit me. With a swift movement, he reaches over and slaps me in the face hard enough to knock me to the ground.

Getting up from the ground I rub my face gently over the spot where he hit me. Letting the tears fall I quickly ran past him and into my room. Slamming the door and locking it, I turn around and ran towards my bed when my leg gets caught on the dresser causing me to trip and fall onto the ground. Under the dresser, I see something that was long forgotten.

The book was old and heavy, the leather felt soft and delicate as I ran my fingers over the faded blue bindings. Carefully I opened the cover and was greeted to a photo as old as the book itself. The photo was of me and Cosmo on our wedding day. We were so happy, a giant smile plastered on our faces as we held each other in our arms. Oh, how I wished I could relive that day all over again.

I smiled as I flipped the page reliving every moment contained in the old photo book. Finally, I flipped the last page and my heart melted. On a single page was a giant picture of me, Cosmo, and Timmy, arms encased around each other and at the bottom in bold lettering was the single phrase "Forever a Family!".

PoV: Cosmo

Taking one last sip of my coffee I dumped the rest into the sink. Deciding it would be best to clean it later, I placed the cup into the dishwasher. Hearing the sound of the toaster popping up I picked up the pop tarts as I floated past the toaster and into the hallway to retrieve my wand. "Password please" the machine responded at the sense of my touch.

"Lambchop," I said as clearly as possible.

"Password accepted." The machine responded, letting the door swing open.

"Hopefully, Timmy is all ready to go," I said to myself as I raised my wand.

Once I arrived in Timmy's room, I found him sitting on the bed waiting for me.

"There you are Cosmo! I thought you would never show up!" He said smiling up at me.

"Woke up a little late," I said "but, I made you breakfast" I handed him the pop tart.

"Thanks, Cosmo I knew I could count on you!" He said taking a big bite.

Finishing up our pop tarts I tuned myself into a pen and place myself on a strap over Timmy's backpack. Nodding down at me and smiling we went down the stairs and out the front door onto the sidewalk. Just barely making it to the bus as the last kids stepped on, Timmy entered the bus and walked to the back before taking a seat next to his best friends Chester and AJ.

Silently, I sat on Timmy's backpack just listening into their conversation. They talked about the new Crash Nebula episode that aired last night, what their mom packed them for lunch, Chip Skylark's new album My Shiny Teeth and Me, and various other stuff. Coming to a stop they glanced out the window and sighed. We had finally arrived at Timmy's school. Getting off the bus Timmy and his friends slowly walked up to the school and entered.

"Here we go again, another boring day of school" Chester sighed as they walked down the crowded hallways of the school.

"I know right! Let's just get it over with" Timmy replied.

Suddenly Timmy came to a halt. He leaned forward and brought his hands to his cheeks, his face melting into his hands as he stared off into the distance with a grin.

"So, Timmy did you study for the math test?" AJ asked.

"Timmy!" He said snapping his fingers in front of his best friend trying to gain his attention.

"Huh?" Timmy responded "Yeah, I did actually" He said taking his eyes of Trixie Tang.

Entering the classroom, he sat down in his assigned seat.

"I will leave you to your test" I said "Plus, I have some things I want to do around the house anyways," I exclaimed.

"That's fine, I guess I'll see you after school?" Timmy asked writing his name on the paper.

"Of course, Sport!" I said with a smile.

"Do good for me, okay?"

With that being said I raised my wand and soon found myself floating just above Timmy's bed.

Looking around the room I could see that things were a mess and it needed to be cleaned. I could just poof it clean, but I decided to clean it manually to keep myself occupied.

A few hours later the peace is shattered by a child, running, screaming with delight. "Cosmo! Cosmo" the boy chanted.

Poofing from the castle and into is room he greeted me with a giant smile, jumping up and down, he pulled me into a hug. "Wow, what's going on Sport?" I asked trying to figure out his source of enthusiasm. "Check this out!" he said reaching into his backpack and retrieving a paper from within. Handing me the paper I skimmed over it till I finally realized what it was. Then I saw it, my eyes widening.

At the top of his paper was a GIANT A+!

"Timmy, that's amazing!" I exclaimed shocked.

He looked at me and smiled "Well, I can't take all the credit" He said "In between your encouragement, and AJ tutoring me after class".

"I'm just so proud of you!" I responded, giving him a high five. "How about we go out and celebrate?"

"Oh, can we go to that one place you're always talking about?" Timmy asked.

"You mean the Fairy World Diner? Sure!"
