Hey Princess
A Sisters Grimm Fan Fiction
Chapter 9

Sabrina Grimm was about to allow herself to enjoy the kiss and actually kiss him back, but then she remembered her anger at how many times she'd wished for this within the part year and a half and her anger just grew stronger. She pushed Puck back and crossed her arms, glaring at him.

"Aw, Grimm, don't be like that. I had to leave. Do you really think I'd leave you on my own accord? Can you ever remember a time when I did that? I'm pretty sure I remember giving up an entire kingdom just to follow you back to Ferryport Landing," Puck reasoned. He leaned closer to her and whispered softly. "And I'm pretty sure I was trapped there after I'd been set free." Puck said in a low whisper. "So, let's be fair, alright?" Puck smiled, leaning back on the bed.

Sabrina knew she was being unfair. His note had explained what was going on, in his own Puck-like way. But she'd missed him and it had been a long time. She'd had no contact from him and her parents-even her sister-were hiding information about him from her. It was like everybody was hoping she'd just forget about Faerie and the war between its ex-queen and the two feuding princes. Yeah, right-like that was possible? All she'd wanted was for Puck to come back and tell her everything. He had always been the only person to always treat her like an adult. He talked to her like she was a fully grown, completely responsible, young woman. And she loved that about him, just as she loved everything else about him. And he had come back for her. The problem was...it was just a little too late. Two years? She was being fair when she said a year and a half. In two weeks it would be two years. And she hadn't just been left by the boy she loved. She'd then had to dodge her way out of sketchy situations at school upon his appearance. She'd had to lie about why he'd stopped showing up, at least until enough Forgetful Dust had been found to be splattered on the school, causing all of the faculty and students to forget about the gorgeous and talented Robin Goodfellow.

But not Sabrina. There was no way she could forget. There had been a gapping hole in her heart because of his absence and it was only just now starting to be healed because of his reappearance. How could she be so foolish at to have become so reliant on one person? She was supposed to be smart, brave...a Grimm-an independent woman. Yet, here she was, madly in love with some boy who didn't even care about her enough to follow through on his promises made in a note almost two years ago. And he hadn't ever bothered to attempt to get in contact with her. That was her biggest problem with this entire situation. If he'd at least been trying to let her know something about what was going on, she'd be a lot more forgiving. But he hadn't. He'd even convinced her family to lie for her and that just angered her even more. He should know that Sabrina hated being lied to almost as much as she hated being treated like a child, and he'd done both of those, crushing her heart as he tore a hole into the remaining pieces.

"Why'd you do it? You promised you'd tell me when you came back, and here you are. So why'd you do it," She whispered, crossing her arms over her chest and looking away from him to hide the pain on her face.

"I really hurt you, didn't I?" Puck whispered. "Oh, 'Brina," He sighed, reaching out and pulling her towards him in a tight embrace. "Sabrina, my mother was going on a rampage. I needed to try and calm her down. I didn't want you to get hurt. And I knew that it would take me awhile to fix everything in Faerie. I just never thought it would take two years...but, Sabrina, Titania's dead..."Puck said softly, whispering his words into her hair.

"Your-oh, Puck, I'm so-"

"Don't say you're sorry," Puck said. "Because you don't have to be and you shouldn't be. But, Sabrina, Moth killed her, and this time...well, as the king of Faerie, I got to decide her punishment. I had her...exicuted," Puck said breathlessly. He put air quotes around the word king.

"You did? Wait...I thought Mustardseed took over as-"

"I came back," Puck said simply.

"But he'd already be-"

"No, Sabrina, he'd been crowned by the people. But the kingdom saw him as a temporary. I was the true king and that was the only one they'd answer to. Faerie is based solely on magic and it only understands taking its next heir in the bloodline. That's me, and that's the only way it would recognize a new king. So, let's see...you left and it took me about a good month to calm my mother down. Two more just to get her to believe that nothing was going on between you and I. In the fourth month, Moth murdered her the same way she murdered my father and attempted to murder you. She was arrested and convicted in the fifth month," He said thoughtfully.

"And as for months six through eighteen?" Sabrina asked bitterly.

"I'm getting there!" He said defensively. "Anyways, in the six month I was crowned king. I had to stay in the kingdom for three months to get a handle for things and answer to my people. It was boring and awful, but I had to. So that brings us to month ten, correct?" he asked. Sabrina nodded, rolling her eyes at how Edward-Cullen-y he had suddenly started to sound. "That was when your parents came and told me how terribly you were doing. My initial plan had been to come see you at this point, but then I realized what my absence was doing to you and I realized that I wasn't sure what was going to come up as king within the next few months. So I decided I'd give it a year before coming to find you," He explained. "Well, I was right-something came up. Faerie started to have a few problems accepting me as the king without a queen, so I had to try and figure something out with that. Meaning I had to change the law and that takes about six months to do and I need to whole council to vote on it. Meaning I need Mustardseed to help me be king," Puck sighed.

"That's still four months of you-"

"Sabrina Grimm, if you're going to just assume I have a reason for every month without you, you're wrong. But I wasn't staying away for my own health, either. I was dying inside every day that I went without seeing you and you don't even care about me. Do you know how I felt? And I was always there. I was watching over you from the one year mark. Sabrina, I would never completely abondon you. Even if you told me to get lost and meant it one hundred percent, I would still be watching over you, because that's what I'm here for! To make sure you're safe because I love you. Do you understand?" Puck snapped at her.

And Sabrina didn't answer him. Instead, she leaned up and kissed him.
