Catra pov.

Finally we ended up with Prime Hordian, Adora is alive and everyone is happy with the beloved ones aside, that's what matters, Scorpia forgive me after so many things I did to her, she's always had a good heart so kind.

I see around me and I feel that I'm not fitting here, I don't deserve this... I remember in Etheria's heart when Adora and I show our love for each other and that kiss wow, it took me to the heaven I was really happy, but I know all of this it's an illusion, she doesn't love me like I do, she doesn't need me as I do, she doesn't crave me as I do for her, that's why now I'm leaving... I will leave all this behind, she deserves something better, she will have all kind of proposals, so she will never be alone, even if it hurts I have to let her go and I... well I think I'll start all again and try to redo everything I've done, what I destroyed or tried to do... to redeemed myself. That's why… goodbye Adora, I will never forget you but I really hope you forget me, I know you can do it, it'll not be complicated for you.

I seen her afar with a sad smile and a stab in my heart as I pick up my backpack to disappear along with Melog in the forest full of magic and life for our victory, or rather her victory.

End Pov.

Adora was happy for the victory her friends hugged her, praised her but if they won it was because they were united and especially she was able to achieve all of it because of Catra, remembering her kiss brought a sweet smile and feeling a tingle in her abdomen and chest.

Everyone was very tired as she was, she wanted to go to rest and could only fall asleep with Catra by her side, hugging her or at least be near her, now they're a couple, ¿aren't they?, she search around her and didn't catch any sight of the brunette, she looked for her everywhere, at first she thought she was hidden out there as she sometimes liked to be in solitude, but the more time passed the more worry and anxiety arise inside her, it wasn't until she arrived at the hidden camp that she saw a small note in her sleeping bag, with tremblingly hands she open the thin paper, and in an instant paled. "Thank you for everything, be happy Adora you deserve it. With love Catra" tears began to fall on her cheeks and a sharp pain felt in her chest of what before she felt warmth, ¿why couldn't she have a break?, ¿is it that she could never have what she wanted?, ¿was her love not enough?, ¿does she not deserve to be loved?... Catra…

-Adora ¿are you... all right?" asked Glimmer worriedly, Bow was by her side.

-She left...- said Adora in a slow whisper, they immediately understood who had left, the only thing they could do to comfort their friend is being for her.

-We'll find her don't worry.- Bow said with his typical warmth in his voice, though not very convinced of achieving it.

Four months later.

Adora had not gotten any clue from where Catra could be, there was no day that she stopped thinking about her, her voice, her beautiful eyes, her closeness, her smell, in the comfort of her company. She was tired, she hasn't been able to sleep well and it's starting to put bills on her body and She-ra's efficiency.

Her friends were worried if she was not trying to track down Catra she was overexerting herself in rebuilding the villages so as not to think about her. Recently she had unstransformed while she was carrying something extremely heavy luckily Huntara was by her side to prevent her from seriously injury, although her arm suffered a fracture but it would have been much worse if weren't for the leader of the Crimson Desert, Glimmer was so much worried that she sent her to rest all week, however she was always be chased by those heterochromatic eyes moving away from her.

Every day she got weaker is as if she rejected to be She-ra, or she no longer wanted to have her. She remembered how they slowly got closer and closer, it all started after Catra's chip was removed from Mara's ship.

Flashback:

Pov Adora.

I can't believe that She-ra has appeared again when I feel that someone I care is in danger I begin to feel her power as before. My thoughts went to Catra the way she asked me to stay when Entrapta took away her chip, the softness of her hand when she grabbed me, my heart was racing and happy that she asked me to be next to her, to let me hug her, I had missed her so much.

I was on my way to the room where Glimmer, Bow and I slept, when I noticed that Catra was sitting leaning on the wall, hugging herself, she looked asleep, I approached to see her, she looked tired but still charming, she had dark circles under her beautiful eyes, she looked thinner, for a moment I hesitated but carried her in my arms to take her to what was once my room, I laid her down and covered her with a blanket when I was ready to leave I felt her gently grab my hand.

-Don't go away, don't leave.- she asked without opening her eyes, it made me think she was asleep, until I felt a stronger grip. -Please.- I was doubtful, since I rescued her I'd wanted to always be with her like the old days in the Horde, but the fear of rejection prevented me from doing to what my heart called to do, I began to lie next to her without touching her, although I was dying to hug her, to cradle her head in my chest.

She began to drop small tears it broke my heart to see her like this, from an imposing warrior to an emotionally undone, I come near until I hugged her she stiff for a moment, I was preparing to receive a push or a punch but surprisingly she turned to hide her head in my chest, her hands grabbed my blouse with force so I can't get any far of her, her tail began to tangle in my leg, my heart was beating so much in my chest and a slight blush appeared my face, with a smile I hugged her firmer calming her slight and contained sobs until finally a cute purr confirmed that she was asleep and comfortable, slowly taking myself to a gentle sleep.

Since that event I always slept with her curled up in my chest while I hugged her, those nights were the most soothing that I had for a long time and there is that I realized that I wanted to have her in my arms forever.

End of flashback

Adora at the memory only felt more anger to not have Catra by her side, an emptiness and sadness lodged in her heart, she tried to push those thoughts away, but it was difficult for her when her arm was still immobilized by the fracture stoking those feelings inside her.

Now they were going to a small village that she'd never know that existed near Plumeria, the leader of that town began to show great talents in support of the reconstructions, providing materials that were not so easy to get, supplies and tools, with their support the rebuild was extremely faster of what would have taken, so now they were about to arrive to give diplomatic thanks with Glimmer and the other princesses, there will be dinners and political dialogues as always.

When they arrived they saw that it was a pleasing and charismatic town, there were not many people but you could feel the warmth of its people.

Seeing them arrive a young woman ran to receive them -Welcome princesses, my name is Hana.- She said happily with warmth, offered them a drink and a half-time that they gladly accepted. – In a moment you will be with our leader, Amara's waiting for you with great emotion.- Hana began to look at all the princesses. -¿Isn't She-ra with you? Our leader wanted to give her a special thanks for saving all Etheria.- an awkward silence was received, the young woman didn't know that Adora was She-ra and that lately she hasn't been able to transform or lasted very little time in She-ra state.

-¿What are you talking about', she is She-ra.- Entrapta said, pointing to Adora.

-This is Adora and she can transform into She-ra.- Bow said cheerfully, cutting off the awkward moment.

-Oohh, well, ¿could I ask you for a favor?- Hanna asked with bright eyes. – It's… that the children would like to see She-ra, they have always dreamed of that, even they have toys and also the truth is that everyone would like to see her.- The young woman asked with shyness.

-No, she can't, for a couple of months, when Catra abandoned her there was a powerful emotional conflict that now she repels the power of hmmmmp.- Glimmer put a hand in Entrapta's mouth,

There was another awkward silence until Perfuma intervened – I'm sorry, but Adora is extremely tired, the rebuilding of the villages have not been easy Hana.

-Ohhh of course I'm sorry. I shouldn't have bothered with all that. – The young woman said with regret.

-Nothing happens Hana, ¿why don't you show us the place?- Perfuma asked distracting Hana from Adora who feels so bad to no fulfill the expectations.

They began to walk through the town Hana showing everything, it was very beautiful, until they reached where the community center was, and where the leader Amara will be, and there were many party tables, drinks and delicious food.

Slowly all the villagers began to arrive celebrating the princesses and She-ra, for a moment Adora relaxed a little and began to eat and talk to people. Until the leader Amara appeared in an imposing tall woman who has seen the years in her eyes, her pose as if she were a lost warrior queen.

-Welcome princesses.- there was a silence in the community center.- we are honored to be here sharing our food, I hope our support has been of great help for the rebuild.

-You have been very helpful, thanks for everything and the support you bring to all of our kingdoms.- Glimmer said with praise.

-It has not been anything in fact I will introduce you the one that has organized and made everything possible with a great leadership skill is my right hand Catra.- ¿Catra?, Adora was shocked when she heard the name at the same time that a blindfolded Catra and next to her a loving Melog enter in the middle of the community center with some cheerful companions thinking that it would be a great surprise for the right hand of the leader, all the princesses were petrified.

Catra without knowing that she was in front of several people, they took off her bandage in her eyes and everyone began to applause her, shouting her name, Catra smiled with a blush on her cheeks until she saw Glimmer, then the other princesses until they got to set their eyes on Adora and her beautiful blue eyes. She was in shock she couldn't believe she was watching her again, she didn't know what to do her heart beats really fast in her chest, her legs were shaking, she couldn't take her gaze off Adora it was as if a magnetism prevented her from looking away, suddenly she started to slowly back up until she started running out of the community center, her instinct told her to not look back, to run away as quickly as possible from there.

Adora began to run after her at full speed now she will not escape.

Catra tried to make herself invisible with Melog but was knocked down by an enraged Adora.

-¡I catch you, this time you won't run away from me, Catra!, you will have to face me, you will not escape from me.- Said Adora on the verge of tears as she grabbed her with her good arm with force that will bruise by her waist.

Catra with fear tried to remove the embrace but it was impossible so she sighed and gave up the resistance, now she would have to talk about what always avoid, preparing for the hurting confessions, just to imagine it, it create an ache in her chest, she knew that sooner or later she would have to do it, but when she saw Adora she realized that she would never be fully prepared to face her, her body lay limp without any resistance but Adora's grip did not cease her strength, clinging to her body, Catra felt the trembling body on top of her, small sobs were present.

- ¿Why?... you left... ¿why?... I love you... - Adora said between sobs while clinging to the waist of the brunette.

Catra was heartbroken to hear her lament, so instinctively, slowly began to hug her while letting her cry in her chest soaking her classic red shirt, little by little she began to loosen her grip slowly.

The princesses went out to see if everything was okay when they saw them hugging they calmed down and left them in privacy.

After a few moments the sunset appeared in the sky, Adora calmed down, it seemed that she was soon going to fall asleep on top of the brunette, so Catra wanted to get up again making Adora return to her iron grip in her waist. -Adora, we have to get up, the sun is setting and we will have cold.

-No, I won't let you go again.- Adora said stubbornly but tiredly.

-I won't run away.- Catra said in a whisper.

-¿Promise?- Adora said the phrase they used since they were little to calm down.

-I promise.- With reluctance Adora get up slowly, she was so comfortable on top of Catra, she really needed her, when she got up she took Catra's hand she needed any contact that would give her the certainty that she would not leave her side again, her red and watery blue eyes fell on Catra, although she looked tired there was always beauty in them. -Come to my house- Catra said with a sigh leading the way.

-¡Catra!- Hana ran towards them.

-Sorry Hana could you tell Amara that I'm sorry for not attending the banquet, I have business to do.- Catra said still holding Adora's hand.

-Ooh.. ¡Of course!- said Hanna nervously because of the tension of the environment watching them holding hands.

They walked quietly until they reached a small hut, upon entering there was only one bed, a desk, a bathroom, a small kitchen and a small bed for Melog, it was small but cozy.

-You need to rest Adora.- Catra said looking at Adora with concerned.

-I don't want to rest, I want answers Catra.- Adora said a little annoyed although fatigue invaded her body, because she had not been able to rest properly for a long time, on the other hand she did not want to sleep and then wake up to realize that it had been a dream and lost Catra again.

-We will talk later, I promise, I will be here when you wake up, but now you need to rest.- Catra said in a soft tone trying to convince her, could not help but feel worried about Adora's condition, she saw her arm immobilized, her dark circles, and her lack of weight. -Sleep in my bed, I'll sleep on the couch.

-Sleep with me.- Adora asked with pleading eyes without letting go of her hand. -Please...- ¿How could Catra say no to that request?

-Okay...-Said Catra with a racing heart, they are going to share the bed as they did before and that made her feel emotional without wanting it.

-¿W-will you have some sleeping cloths to lend me?- Catra knew that Adora brought clothes to sleep but her suitcase had left her outside and surely she didn't want Catra to go and leave her alone. Catra nodded and began to look among her things for something that would fit Adora, finally she found a large blouse with some shorts that would surely fit her, she handed them to her and in front of her she began to undress. Catra felt her heart beat as she slowly saw the exposed skin and a blush fell on her cheeks as she turned around.

– ¿Could you help me please?- asked Adora and with an immobilized arm she couldn't maneuver her clothes well.

Catra turned to see that her white shirt was stuck in her immobilized arm and her neck leaving Adora's whitish abdomen exposed, although she's lost weight she could still see the defined abs and strong arms, Catra gulped and helped to remove her shirt and put on her sleeping clothes, she almost fainted when she also asked for help with the shorts her face so near in Adora's crotch. Once finish she also changed in the sleeping cloths.

Adora lay in the bed making an invitation to Catra to join, the last one went to the foot of the bed to lie down, which was stopped the blonde.

-Next to me Catra, please.- Catra obeyed with her red face she lay next to Adora turning her back. It was a temptation, the want for her it's too much, to feel her, kiss her, fall totally into her arms, despite the time away from her, she still felt that love so strong and magnetized that left her helpless.

On the other hand Adora observed Catra's back, her small fur she had, her tail that without the consent of the owner caressed her, her smell, she came closer to hug her was uncomfortable because of the injured arm she had but this would be worth it, touching Catra would be worth enduring any pain.

Catra feeling the little hug stiffed more than she was, she did not know if she could sleep today with all these emotions that at every moment threatened her with getting out of control.

Adora grabbed her and turned her over so that she would face to face with her, admiring the face of the brunette touching her lips, her cheeks, her nose, seeing those beautiful eyes.

Catra had to hold back as much as she could so as not to throw herself into kissing Adora senseless and lose all the progress. She had to let her go.

But Adora had her own plans so she just began to kiss Catra's lips slowly, both felt an electric current through their bodies, they were carried away by the tender but deep kisses they made. On the one hand Catra thought that she would only live the present only for tonight and on the other Adora wanted to show her love so that the brunette would never leave her side again.

Each time the kisses became deeper when they separated and looked at each other neither of them took the courage to speak, they decided that their feelings would be expressed by theirs bodies, so they searched again for another kisses, they began to caresses, faces, cheeks, necks, all skin that will possible to touch.

Adora wanted more she was burning so without thinking about the pain and discomfort of her arm began to climb on top of Catra's body pushing her in the bed as her kisses grow in level of cadency, their tongues caress each other incessantly, their hips swayed rubbing their pleasure point, their breaths became agitated, the blonde was in nirvana she never wanted to stop, when she felt a sharp pain in her arm making her separate from her actions with a moan.

-¿Are you okay?- asked Catra worriedly trying to push her to lie next to her so to not cause more pain in Adora.

Adora resisted the push without saying a word only looking at her. –Adora…, you are hurting yourself like this, come lie next to me I will be on top.- Catra said to try to convince her.

Adora seeing that Catra was still willing to continue with the make out session, began to roll over next to her, to feel that slowly Catra was getting on top of her, her legs intertwining, her hips sticking intimately, with her healthy arm she grabbed the brunette by the waist and rub her body more firmly the gasps of pleasure began to echoed in the room.

They saw each other, love, acceptance, desire was in their eyes, Catra cradled the cheeks of the blonde with her warm and soft hands, approaching to start again those deep kisses of before. Their hands traveled through their bodies again.

Adora ventured to go further and start touching under the clothes the entire length of the smooth back of the brunette, Catra answered by get a feeling of Adora's abs, she always have dreamed about how would it be the sensations of them to her warm palms.

Their hips swayed more quickly wanting to have more friction, sounds of creaking from the bed, groans, sighs and wet kisses filled the room, overwhelming heat pearling their skin of sweat. Without proposing it by the simple incessant rubbing they felt the increase of fire and pressure in their abdomen to then ended with a sweet released with a sonorous moans silenced in their mouths, feeling a pleasure to travel throughout their body ending in the union of their hips where firm and desperate movements prolonged their pleasure, coming down from their top they kissed slowly with a smile on their faces, falling asleep in each other arms.

Only for today, Catra think.

I deserve your love thought Adora.

When at last their eyes closed, with their hearts united reciting a hope that tomorrow perhaps the love they had will triumph and then they would never be separated again.
