Helloooo! Sorry, for blowing up your mail yesterday, three chapters is a record for me, I just really enjoy writing this. That and I want as much out before Tuesday, when I start classes, because when classes start...I have zero time to myself. Therefore I have no time for fanfiction. It's truly saddening for me.
Outfits are the same as the last chapter since it's just a continuation.
Also, I have decided to ultimately write shorter chapters for the rest of the story. This is not only easier for me, but I know shorter chapters tend to be an easier read. Besides, we could have days like yesterday if I go with shorter chapters and that's always awesome, right? It also helps draw the story out so that this doesn't end too soon.
Also, I just bought the latest wave of Descendants books and one of those is Audrey's Diary. I feel like I hit the lottery with this as it's perfect for this fic!
This chapter has the Audrey/Heidi we have all been waiting for, or at least I have been waiting for, and I hope I don't disappoint!
I don't own Descendants, just little ol' Heidi.
Audrey sat on her bed, drawing a picture of a certain goddess who up and disappeared on her six months ago in her diary.
Like, seriously, who does that?
Still, she missed her quips and her stupid philosophy that she always had armed and ready. In fact, she missed her so much she began dating Chad...because she was lonely.
Yet, that only made her think of the bluenette even more. She remembered how Heidi once said she'd rebound with an idiot.
Turns out Chad was the idiot.
Everytime she was with him she only felt worse. Why? She had no idea. So she didn't bother to spend much time with him and him being the idiot he is, he never even bothered to call or text her.
Does this guy know how to keep a girlfriend?
The answer is obviously no and she was so close to dumping him.
The idea, admittingly, scared her as she would be lonely once more. At least with Chad she was annoyed, at least she felt an emotion that wasn't sadness or the feeling of emptiness.
A knock on the door interrupted her thoughts, causing her to close her journal and get up.
Who's bothering me?
As soon as the door opened, her breath caught in her throat at the sight of the person standing there.
It was none other than the missing goddess herself.
"Hello princess."
Audrey just stared at her...until she fainted.
Heidi barely caught her, bewilderment in her eyes as she looked at the princess, "Audrey?"
The princess didn't respond, clearly unconscious, and Heidi shrugged before picking up the girl and entering the dorm room.
She closed the door with her shoulder and sat the princess down on her bed, "Nice to see you haven't redecorated, keeps me sane." She said aloud, placing her hands on her hips, "Gods know I need my sanity."
Heidi summoned Kirby to her and sat on the other bed, "Now Kirby, you must behave. That is the princess I was telling you about. The light sleeper but apparently the deaf unconscious person." The dog whined softly, "Yes, that's good. Actually, just keep quiet. She looks like she's waking up."
Audrey sat up, looking around, "Heidi, three headed dog." She paused before her eyes went wide, "Heidi?! What...How did you...What is that?"
"Hey." She said softly, putting Kirby on the bed with a stern look, and she walked over, "I fixed the Underworld, that's how I'm here." She chuckled, looking back at Kirby, who was struggling to stay still, "That is Kirby, he was born from one of Cerberus's litters. He was the runt and I am raising him myself since he isn't receiving enough care from Cerberus." She took a seat next to Audrey, "I understand this must be very shocking."
"Understatement of the century." Audrey said, looking at the dog for a few more seconds before looking at the goddess, "Do you know that it's been six months?"
Heidi chuckled, "Yep, though, it's been six years for me down in the Underworld. Hurts my head to think about it."
"That's crazy...and I thought six months were horrible, I can't imagine six years in such a place." Audrey said, shaking her head.
Heidi sighed at that, "I try not to think about it."
"That bad?" Audrey asked, raising an eyebrow as Heidi placed her hand on top of hers.
"Dreadful." She muttered, glancing away as images of the place came to mind.
Heidi subconsciously interlocked her fingers with the other girls, causing Audrey's eyes to dart down at the action as a blush appeared on her face.
What the...This feeling, I haven't felt it since Ben...
Heidi looked at her and chuckled, "So, who's the lucky guy that's had the princess for six months?"
"Lucky guy?" She knows! "Uh…" She looked away, the blush only growing under the goddess' intense gaze.
"Come on, you can tell me. I'm your trusty love guru, remember?"
That doesn't help…
"It's...Chad." Audrey said, giving up on hiding it from her as she looked back at the goddess.
Heidi blinked before enveloping her in a hug, surprising the princess who was now as red as a tomato.
Why am I feeling like this? Heidi is...Heidi. Yet, here I am blushing and wishing to just hug her forever.
Do I like Heidi? No...That can't be right.
Audrey was thankful she got over her habit of saying her thoughts aloud, she couldn't live if she said her current thoughts with the goddess in the room. She could only imagine what the goddess would do, she'd be so embarrassed and Heidi wouldn't think it's right!
Heidi pulled away from the hug, "I shouldn't have left the way I did, I figured that out soon after I did it." She said, still holding the princess's hand, "I'm so sorry, Audrey."
Audrey's eyes were wide, "I-It's okay, Heidi." Ugh, get ahold of yourself!
Heidi shook her head, "No, it wasn't. My selfishness took over me and I didn't want to feel sad. I should have just sucked it up and said goodbye." A small smile appeared on her face, "I got you something to say I'm sorry." A necklace appeared in her hands, "I uh, know you like pink and well-"
Audrey looked at the necklace, No she didn't…
The goddess chuckled, "-The Underworld has access to lots of rare gems, the kind you can't really find up here, so I made this. I also made a crown, earrings, and a bracelet…I think the demons I talked to said the purple ones are purple diamonds, the pink ones are pink diamonds, there are quite a few white diamonds and apparently the big one is a white opal." She explained, looking at the necklace with a tilt of the head.
Oh. My. God.
Heidi shrugged, "Here, lemme put it on you." She climbed behind her and put it on the princess with practiced ease. "There."
The bluenette guided her to her mirror, "Is it too much? I was hoping that the pink and the purple didn't make it too gaudy, but I still wanted it-"
"It's beautiful…" She said softly, "Heidi, this-this is crazy, do you have any idea how much this must be worth?" She asked, turning around to look at the smiling goddess.
"I ignored that part, the demons looked quite shocked though, so I guess it must be quite a bit." Heidi answered with a shrug, clearly not bothered by it. She summoned a bracelet and a pair of earrings, "Here, put these on. The earrings are white opals and the bracelet is fire opals with some diamonds on it."
Audrey did so, not without giving Heidi a startled look. This isn't just a gift...This is so much more.
She turned around and quietly gasped. Sure she was a princess, but she truly felt like one now. "Heidi, I-" She faced the goddess, and began to say something.
Until Heidi shut her up via finger to her lips.
"Shhh…" Heidi smiled widely, "I hope this suffices as an apology for my selfishness and how long I took."
Audrey quickly nodded, looking at the finger that was still on her lips as her cheeks burned bright. She's doing it on purpose now!
"Now, I believe you need to go break up with an idiot." Heidi said, removing her finger as the princess blinked.
"Finally." She said with a relieved sigh, "I didn't know how much longer I could put up with him."
The goddess chuckled, "Shall I escort you, princess?"
Audrey smirked, "You shall."
