She's going down
Chapter XXVI: No failure possible
"Okay, I know what to do. Musa; call Riven, Stella, you call Brandon, we'll need them." I enumerate. "Tecna, you can ask Timmy to work with us on a plan. How late is it?"
"3 minutes to 11 and 38 seconds." Tecna replies. Everyone looks at me expectantly.
"Well then, let's go to bed." I say cheerily.
"WHAT?!"
"You heard me, come on, get out of my room" I say laughing and I push them out. I shut the door. Finally. I walk to my bathroom, brush my teeth, wash my face and change into a loose sleeping dress. I lay in my canopy, staring thru the thin sheets at the ceiling. And then the thoughts start to pour into my head, thousands of them. Not relaxing. Like, why am I doing this for him? I realize now that I haven't forgiven him yet, so will I ever? I mean, he said he loved me, that's true; but still… Let's hope time mends all wounds. Time? Oh that's okay, I have plenty of that! I'll just have to try harder to forgive him. Wrong. Forgiveness… it'll show. I'll have to wait. But what if I can't stop waiting.

I wake up, after my extremely pleasant night of brooding, and look at my alarm clock: 11.10 am. Nice. But now it's time to get up. The sooner this is over, the better. I jump out of my bed (clearly not; I drag myself out of it) and look thru my window. Oh no, not no!
"Joaquin, what the hell are you doing here?" I turn around, angrily. Sigh. I feel tired again.
"Behind you" he says and spins me around, causing me to stand very close to him.
"Seriously" I say, not moving an inch.
"Nympha, this time I came to see you. I'm leaving."
"Great. Go" I say abruptly
"Oh come on, I had to say goodbye, you're…" he sighs "You're Nympha." How poetic, he wants me because he names differently.
"The name is Bloom" I say, contradicting that name for the first time.
"Off course" he reacts. Annoying person! "So, I came to ask you a favor"
"Me?" I repeat, checking if I understood him "Huh, that's weird."
"Come with me." he blabs. This is getting even stranger; Joaquin never blurts something out and did he just ask me to…?
"Oh come on!" I exclaim "Do you really think I want to come with you after all the damage you've caused?!" I ask angrily.
"The damage Marisol cause" he corrects
"No" I say, piercing my finger into his chest "You!" he grabs my hand.
"Nympha, I want you, can't you see that?" oh great.
"The only thing you want you, is yourself" I push him off "Go to your slutty sister"
"If that's your answer, then there no other way" he say. Uh oh.
"Bloom Magic Winx!" I react.
"Good reflexes" he says impressed "That's not gonna help you, quite the contrary actually." What is he up to? Whatever it is, it can't be good. I throw a fireball at him that he easily blocks.
"Barrier" he says and a dark curtain appears in front of him. Damned, I can't get through that kind of magic with my positive energy.
"I speak to thee, I beseech thee. Lead the people, they need your guidance. Dark will be light, light will be dark. Show them the way! In aeternum! Finite!" he yells and I see a big purple cloud flying towards me. God, that is one hell of a reversing spell.
"Shield" I quickly react but I already feel the dark magic pushing through the fire. But wait a second, if that spell makes me evil, it would make him… good. I don't have much time, I have to try this.
"REVERSO!" I shout and luckily the dark cloud turns from purple to orange and flies through Joaquin's barrier in his chest. Strike! I walk towards him, carefully.
"Bloom?" he asks "Oh God I am so sorry!" he exclaims with an unsteady voice and starts to cry. The spell definitely worked. Brilliant! I'm good! Let's test him!
"Do you know what you did to me?"
"I am so sorry, I don't know why I did that! I didn't mean to, I didn't want to" he says, sobbing "I never meant to break you guys up" he looks at me sadly. "He loves you, you know."
"But, you love me too, don't you?" I ask, not-understanding what he means
"Yeah, but you didn't love me." he explains. Oh right. I can't deny that. I adored him, that's true. But did I love him? He knows the answer.
"It's hard to love him" I reply
"Yes. But you can't imagine what it would be like if you didn't."
"I don't know if I can…"
"Look Bloom" he interrupts "I know what he did; Marisol was so happy and dumb that she told me and for one tiny second I thought I stood a chance, but the other minute…" he sighs.
"What?" I ask curiously
"I realized you were going to hurt Mari. Badly." He says. I chuckle, but I get serious again.
"Still…"
"He didn't mean to hurt you Bloom, he didn't really cheat on you either, though he probably feels it that way."
"But…" I try to interrupt him.
"Just a second since you don't seem to understand this." He looks at me. "He made a mistake. A big one. But guess what Bloom, we're human. And you know what even makes us more human? The ability to forgive. Bloom, people all over the world screw up every day and the beauty of it, is the forgiveness part. Isn't that beautiful? Look when you realize the beauty of that, you'll forgive him. I know you want toforgive him, that's good. Now do it." He ends. Wow. What a speech. Reversed Joaquin is like a sensitive gay friend! I want one!
"And please, please get rid of Mari. She's getting really annoying. Just give her someone rich to fuck her and she'll leave." Oh not so sensitive.
"No worries, I already have a master plan" I say, smiling mysteriously.

"Everybody ready?" I ask nervously
"Bloom, she's coming" Flora lets me know quietly. I look at Brandon and Riven, who look extremely uncomfortable with the Eraklyon soldier's uniforms. Plus, we kinda changed their appearances so they would look older and more … guard-like.
"Hello Marisol" I say, as she enters the ballroom.
"Marisol Marcella Fuentes?" Tecna asks, dressed as a lawyer of the Court of Eraklyon.
"Yes, me" she says confused
"You've been charged with assault on the Royal family of Eraklyon on the penalty of death" Oh my, she plays this so good!
"What? Wait no!" she yells "Let me explain!"
"We don't need any explanations Ms Fuentes" Tecna replies coldly "Your other option is to enter a convent
"What?" she exclaims flustered. Ooh, too difficult word. "But I really don't fit in a…"
"You're not that fat Ms Fuentes" Tecna reacts calmly
"But, I don't accept this , I want to defend myself" she panics. Suddenly the door makes a noise and opens, revealing a person we didn't really need right now.
"Sky!" Marisol exclaims happily and relieved. Shame, really. He walks past her, comes standing next to me.
"Sky?" she repeats, more in an questioning way. "What did I do?"
"Don't you know?" I ask, not understanding how someone can be this stupid!
"You lied to me Marisol" Sky says
"But? What?"
"You're not pregnant" I help her
"Yes I am!" she persists. We glare at her until she realizes this is a hopeless situation, well at least for her.
"How did you know?" she asks
"We have our ways" Sky says mysteriously. We know she's not because she's as dumb as a post, duh!
"So Mari, what's your choice?" I ask, trying to end this once and for all.
"Sky!" she says, walking towards him.
"Flames" I wave my hand in front of her, creating a curtain of licking flames. I look at Sky.
"I don't think she got it, you are definitely not a choice"
"Let me thru!"she yells like a madman. With the minimal amount of magic she has, she comes through the barrier. She's standing in front of me seethingly. I look down, into her eyes, and say slowly and calmly
"You have no idea who you're messing with"
"You arrogant bitch" she says "Magic…"
"Sphere of fire!" I quickly react so she caught in an orb of fire. "Don't try to get out, you can't" I say simply, moving my finger to the left, right, left, right… so the orb moves too, shaking Marisol. I raise my arms, lifting the orb in the air.
"First of all, no on calls me an arrogant bitch" I say loudly, pushing her against the ceiling.
"Secondly, you have no idea who you're messing with" I repeat my previous threat. I wave my hands to the right, causing her to collide with the wall. I prefer to call it reunite with the wall, it sounds better. I lift myself in the air.
"Did you really think you stood a chance against me? Mari, you're stupid, you always will be and I am so glad I am rid of you." I finish, opening a portal.
"Say goodbye to Marisol everyone!" I shout fake-cheerily and throw her into the portal. I get back on the floor and look around.
"Hey? Where is everyone?"
"Hm, they probably thought you could handle it yourself" Sky answers. "Well…" he starts, pulling me close to him. "I have a problem now, you banished my dance partner for the Alfea Summer Party."
"Really?" I ask, as his face comes close "I think I have a solution to that problem"
"Really?"
"Definitely" I say as he closes the last bit of space between us. He embraces me and kisses me as if this is our first kiss again. Sigh. It's been too long. Right, I forgot something!
"Hey!" I say , pulling apart "You cheated on me!"
"Huh?" he asks confused. I slap him in the face.
"Okay, I'm okay now" I say, kissing him again. And that's the way we do that.
I still think I'm right, about the whole 'dancing alone' thing. Maybe it's better to dance alone, but it sure is a lot more fun with the two of us
Epilogue
"Welcome Ladies and Gentlemen, to the Alfea Summer Party!" Stella yells thru the microphone."And now, the moment, you've all been waiting for, Prince Sky of Eraklyon, is going to dance" I hear some screaming
"Yes, yes he is. Yet we should be sad too, 'cause his dance partner, Marisol Fuentes couldn't make it. Oh, let's grieve for a moment" she waits one second and starts again
"But better news, his new dance partner is royal, better and a lot hotter:" I can help but chuckle. I am feeling nervous but then I realize who's standing next to me. He quietly slips his hand into mine and gives me a smile. "…Princess Bloom of Sparx!" Stella yells excitedly. I hear a loud applause and we get on stage.

"That was amazing!" Sky says, still dazed.
"I know!" I nod. "How late is it?" I ask nervously
"9 pm." I look at him
"I'm going to be late!" I yell anxiously.
"No worries, I already called a ship" Sky says soothingly
"Okay, God thank you" I kiss him quickly on the lips "Let's go" I say, taking his hand. I am so nervous. I mean, seriously this is big. I ordered the soldiers to pick up my friends, but I totally forgot myself! Luckily Sky thinks of that. Yeah, we really complete each other. I get out of the ship with a stupid smirk on my face.
"Hurry!" a maid yells as I walk into the palace. Correction, run. I know, don't yell at me!
5 minutes later the ceremony starts, it doesn't take very long but I experience that differently. I can't wait to go to the ballroom. Then I realize something scary.
When those doors open, I will be Queen Bloom of Sparx.
