A.N: Hi all, sorry I haven't updated in a while…again. College life is busy and I'm job hunting at the same time. Hope you enjoy the chapter.
For the nth time in the day, there was another dead silence. Timmy stood by the front door in confusion and worry, whilst his godparents looked like they were regretful. Obviously something terrible has happened…but he wasn't too sure if he wanted to hear their problem or not, it might make him upset too. In fact, he knew it would, he could tell by how his fairies looked.
Cosmo and Wandas' faces were bright red, streaked with old and new tears and their eyes looked like they had dried up from too much crying. Wanda also had dark streaks down her cheeks from her makeup running, but that was the last thing on her mind. Timmy also noticed a hand-print on Cosmos' left cheek…did he get into a fight? Well he was about to find out.
After about 2 minutes of a long pause, young Timmy broke the silence.
"Why have you been crying?" Timmy asked.
Cosmo went to talk, but Wanda got there first, flying into the air.
"Look sport…we really don't want you to get upset, but Cosmo and I…are…"
Timmy also put a sad expression on his face, with a slight addition of fear too.
"Are what?" He asked whimpering.
Cosmo sighed and shut his eyes, he hated seeing his godchild upset.
"Broke up…" He finished Wandas' sentence in a dark voice. "We aren't together anymore."
Timmy widened his eyes, and felt like his heart was going to snap in two and melt away. His godparents were broken up? There had to be a good reason why. He actually clutched his chest too, rubbing his heart area, it was too unbelievable.
"W-what? But why?" He stuttered.
Wanda looked down at Cosmo, but all she saw was the look of fear again. 'I guess it's down to me to explain as always.' She thought in irritation. Sometimes she wished Cosmo would grow a pair and sort things out for himself someday. She let out a long sigh, and then spoke.
"Okay, I'll tell you why. You see-"
"No." Cosmo interrupted Wanda, which caused her to glance back to him. He still kept his eyes shut.
"Let me tell him, after all, it is my fault that we're in this stupid situation."
Wanda widened her eyes, yes it was his fault but she never expected him to take courage for his own actions. 'He better explain it correctly too' she thought.…and then she folded her arms.
"Fine, go ahead and tell him." She said plainly, still keeping her view on her ex.
Cosmo let out a deep sigh, and clenched his hands into fists. His knuckles went white from the hard grip but he didn't care. Too much frustration built up in his head as he thought how Timmy would feel when the truth was out, maybe he would think he was sick…twisted…heartless. However he felt, he pretty had nothing much in life now.
"Well you can at least look him in the eye 'cause apparently you're really brave (!)" Wanda said sarcastically, still keeping her arms folded.
The green haired fairy felt another painful headache coming on, eventually; he opened his green orbs and stared into his godchild's blue ones. His headache got worse as Timmy looked at him with sadness, the emotion that Cosmo hated the most.
"Cosmo?" Timmy whimpered again, sounding like he was about to cry. "Tell me, please?"
His voice sounded unbelievably quiet and high pitched, but the truth had to come out.
"I've." He paused, then carried on. "…had an affair." Cosmo said, still keeping eye-contact, waiting for the worst moment of the day, to see his godchild crushed. But he widened his eyes slightly as Timmy raised an eyebrow, his sad face didn't change to confusion straight away.
"What's an affair?" He asked.
Wanda looked at Timmy, butting in their conversation.
"It's when someone in a marriage or relationship is unfaithful to their wife or husband. They go with another person and partake in the same activities they do with their spouse." Wanda said sternly, and then glared back at Cosmo. "So in other words, Cosmo has cheated on me with someone else."
"Alright don't rub it in." Cosmo said simply, rubbing his temple whilst still looking at Timmy. "I'm so sorry Timmy."
Timmy was still a bit confused, he wasn't too sure on how cheating worked. 'That explains the hand print on Cosmos' face at least…Wandas' obviously hit him.' He thought. Maybe it was the same feeling he got when he saw Trixie with another guy, or the same feeling he got when he wanted to tell Tootie that he didn't love her. It is a bad feeling, but he might be wrong. Was it worse or not?
"So, when you say cheated…you mean you are in love with someone else?"
Cosmo let another tear slide down his cheek.
"Well…you could say that, yeah. But you wouldn't understand Timmy…you've never been in love before. You've 'crushed' on girls but that's it, love is much more than a crush you know."
Wanda on the other hand softened her expression…she already knew that Cosmo was in love with his new partner, but she didn't know how he really felt. Her definition of love was getting butterflies in your stomach when you saw someone, maybe Cosmo thought more than that. She landed back on the ground and got in front of the broken fairy, letting her arms rest by her sides.
"Okay, so what's your definition of love Cosmo? Tell us."
Said fairy wiped his eyes and looked at Wanda, she looked like she was intrigued by his feelings…he wasn't too intuitive on explaining things perfectly, so he put his heart in his words and told her.
"I think…when you see someone…and…you get that fluttery feeling inside you. That's called a crush. But…once you actually start a life with them…you feel so much more than that. Every kiss or hug they give to you, you wish they would never stop, you crave like you want to give them the same feeling they make you feel. Then inside…the passion grows stronger as the relationship goes on, that's when you realize that they are your life, and you think that you can't breathe without them by your side, holding you at night. Each sense…the look on their face, in their eyes…and their scent, how soft their skin feels on your fingertips. The experience never leaves me. Even when they're away from me, but I know I'm going to see them again, I miss them. So…that's love in my words."
Cosmo finished his heartwarming speech with a long sigh, and then kept his focus on Timmy and Wanda.
Wanda had a look of regret, and Timmy had a look of amazement.
"Well, when we were married, did you ever feel like that…with me?" Wanda asked.
"You know I did, you were my rose Wanda, that's why I married you." Cosmo then shifted his gaze to Timmy. "And you know Timmy that I love you too. Obviously not like I loved Wanda, but in a 'dad' way if you know what I mean.
Timmy did something he felt like he hadn't done in a long time…smiled.
Cosmo also smiled for the first time in hours. But Wanda didn't, she still looked worried. That made Timmy's smile go away.
"Wanda? What's wrong?" The boy asked.
The pink haired fairy made eye contact with her godchild again…and braced herself for the worst.
"Sport, Cosmo cheating isn't the shocking part."
Cosmo could see where this was going, he stood up and grabbed Wandas' shoulder.
"Wanda no! He can't find out!" He shouted, but Wanda grabbed his hand and squeezed it, not hard enough to hurt him, but hard enough to give a warning.
"He's bound to ask Cosmo! Let the truth out!"
Cosmo snatched his hand away.
"I can't! It's too horrible Wanda I just can't!" He shed a fresh load of tears down both eyes.
Timmy felt scared again. But was slightly suspicious of who Cosmos' mystery person was. He deserved to know…so he stood up.
"Guys! No more yelling! Please!" Timmy yelled, "The last thing I want is both of you to fight again! So just stop it!" His sentence made both his godparents look at him. But he focused on Cosmo.
The young boy calmed down and exhaled slowly.
"Look…why is this so bad for you Cosmo? If you say you love her like you described before…then I'm bound to be okay with it." He said.
Cosmo re-closed his eyes.
"Timmy, if you knew who they were, you would hate me even more."
"I wont Cosmo…I wouldn't dream of hating you."
Cosmo kept his eyes shut.
"Well…I guess it's safe to say that…I'm in love with another man, not a woman."
"…Oh…so…are you…?"
"Gay? Yes."
Timmy was surprised at his statement, not too surprised…as Cosmo did over-exaggerate his feminine side when he dressed up as girls which gave away a big hint that he might be homosexual, or bi at least, but again…when you love someone it doesn't matter.
"Why is that bad? You love who you want…I'm still not gonna hate you."
"Oh you will Timmy…once he says who his mystery lover is, you'll regret knowing him." Wanda said.
Timmy flashed a glare at Wanda.
"Oh would I? Cosmo is my godfather, my idol! He may have cheated on you and the family but I wont think differently of him in any way!" He shouted at his fairy godmother. "You might hate him but I definitely don't!"
Wanda looked offended, and Cosmo opened his eyes.
"Really?" Cosmo asked. "Even if it was anybody."
"Yeah…even if I hated the bones of the guy you love, I'll still accept you…although there is one question: you aren't in love with Wandas' ex-boyfriend right?" Timmy joked. Cosmo laughed.
"No, not Juandissimo." He replied giggling.
"And you aren't in love with a pixie right?" Timmy joked again, which made Cosmo laugh even more.
"No, not a pixie." He wiped his eyes.
Wanda gripped her wand in irritation, then interrupted their conversation for the 2nd time.
"And you aren't in love with an Anti-Fairy right?" Wanda said sternly.
"…"
Cosmo certainly didn't laugh at that remark.
A.N: Wow, sorry Wanda fans, but I like to make her mean sometimes. Another cliffhanger as I like to make you all suffer! Mwahahahaaa!
Only joking :P
Hope you liked it.
