Heartache
Part 4 - Reconciliation
Jasmine...
The name ran through his head over and over again. How beautiful it was...how beautiful SHE was. How could he have ever done such a thing to her? Not too long after she cursed at him, she was running down the palace corridors; opposite his direction. But where was he to go? She apparently still hated him and he didn't blame her for it. What had happened should have never happened at all. But as he stood there between now darkening palace pillars, his mind began to wander. Back to his earlier teen years is where it stopped.
*flashback*
Sharah... Ahhhhh Sharah...his first love. She was a beautiful maiden - a street mouse, and one of his best friends as a child. As the two grew up together and matured, they began to become fond of one another. And eventually they were a couple. They spent all their time together out on the streets. She was a cute girl - dark complexion, a little longer than shoulder length hair, green eyes, and dressed to impress...well he thought anyway, in her baggy white pants, green sash and yellow top.
Their romance grew more and more and when Aladdin and Sharah were both around fifteen, their longings for each other were more passionate. One beautiful night, in Aladdin's old hovel closer to the outer part of Agrabah, the two were kissing and since they were both so in love, they decided to make love. It was incredible, and for both of them, their first time ever.
Aladdin thought they'd be together forever. One time, as they were playing on the roof tops, Aladdin fell and ripped his pants. Sharah ran to him and quickly ripped her top apart, preparing a patch. She sewed it as best she could. He hugged her and to him that was the sweetest thing someone has ever done for him. He truly loved Sharah.
But one morning, Aladdin awoke and she wasn't next to him. He searched everywhere and asked everyone if they had seen her. The night approached quickly and she was no where to be found. He never saw her again. The only thing he had to remind himself of her was the yellow patch on his pants.
Aladdin had many girlfriends after that, but Sharah was truly his real love.
Then, there was Joely. Joely - who dressed like the princess. She wore her hair the same way (with a pink veil though), and had a little outfit just like the Princesses... only it was reds and pinks. Aladdin was captivated by her.
§Author's Note: I dreamed up Joely from the Aladdin movie - next time you watch it, pay close attention in Aladdin's first song "One Jump". The one in the red who majorly flirts with him is her.§
They had a lot in common and were a couple for a little while. They made love occasionally, but Joely's mother didn't like Aladdin. Not too long after they got together, the mother made Joely leave Aladdin. As much as she hated it, she had to obey her mother's rules. They were still good friends afterwards, and Aladdin had a few girlfriends after her.
At last he met Jasmine. Who knew a street rat could marry a Princess!? He remembers the first time he saw her face so clearly... she looked beautiful - her brown eyes, her black silken hair, her cute nose... everything about her he adored. But his relationship with Jasmine was different from all his others. It was just the fact that they were together, that he could hug her and call her his own, that made it so great. After about 2 and a half years (such a wait!), the Sultan agreed to their marriage. And once the two were wed, Aladdin finally took the Princess to the "royal" bed.
Such a happy life was theirs... (of course it was) they had six children - all fraternal twins - three heirs to the throne and three gorgeous princesses. They lived together in absolute harmony - (well, until the last bunch was born anyway) and enjoyed every moment together.
*end flashback*
So what DID happen? What went wrong? Aladdin stood there in silence, his feet starting to grow cold on the tiled floor. A guard came towards him.
"Sultan Aladdin, please follow me," the guard said, and began to head toward the royal bedroom. Aladdin quietly followed, still partially consumed in his own thoughts.
"My king, the queen wishes to speak to you," and he slowly opened the door. Aladdin stepped right in with no hesitation.
Jasmine looked up at him and the guard closed the door behind Aladdin. The room smelled of sweet candles which were lit around the room. Jasmine sat on the edge of her side of the bed in her cute lavendar gown. She then stood up and placed the nail file she was holding on her bureau. She turned to him and slightly smiled. She was always such a forgiving person.
"Aladdin, as much as I want to say I'm sorry for earlier, I can't bring myself to do it unless you apologize first..." she paused and looked down at her slippered feet. "After all," she said, her eyes still focused toward the carpet, "your doing was worse than mine..."
Aladdin smiled. He wanted to go up and hug her. He slowly headed toward her. She was so kind for just accepting him back like this and...
Wait - what was he doing. He can't accept it.
"Jasmine..." he at last spoke. She looked right into his big worried eyes, with a little water in her own. "I - I can't... This is so nice of you to do this but you're so wrong!" he exclaimed. Her eyebrows rose. "Do you believe what I've done to you? I've - I've...arrrrrrrgh!" he grunted. "I don't deserve you, Jasmine!" he completed, frustrated.
Jasmine slightly smiled. She knew he understood his actions. His head was down with one hand rubbing his neck - as always when he was nervous.
"The worst part of it all," he started again, "is that I don't even know why it happened... I can't... figure it out..."
"Well if you can't figure it out, how am I supposed to?!" Jasmine reacted. "Aladdin, I know that what you did was wrong, and I'm glad to know that you realize that, but I'm willing to pass it by!"
"How can you say that?" he questioned. "After all the...the HELL I put you through, how can you say that?!?!" he yelled. Jasmine put her finger to her mouth.
"Shhhhh, Aladdin. Listen, I've been a princess all my life. Good things have happened, yes, but for the most part my life has been such a hardship. Not to brag, but why bad things happen to good people I shall never know. The only way I've come this far, is because I've learned to put it all behind me. You can't let the past live your future, Aladdin. I'm not going to let it ruin mine. Now I need you to do the same thing."
Aladdin stared at her in such awe and love. Jasmine was truly a beautiful person, inside and out. How she still had such a big heart was beyond his comprehension. He smiled, and she smiled back.
"So, what will it be, Aladdin? Are you willing to leave the past behind and join me in the future?"
