That one person who enters your life out of nowhere and suddenly means the world to you

"What are you drawing there, baby sister?"

Amity jumped out of her seat and spun around to see her sister standing above her, her trademark cheeky smile plastered on her face.

"Emira!? What are you doing in my room!?"

"Is it so wrong for me to check in on my favorite sister every now and then? I just wanted to see what you were up to…" Emira trailed innocently.

"I've just been studying," Amity replied.

"Oh reeeeally? Y'know I've noticed that you've been acting pretty differently since Grom. You've been holding yourself up in your room, more than usual. Which is saying a lot."

Amity crossed her arms irritably. "I've just had a lot on my mind, that's all."

"It wouldn't have anything to do with what you were just drawing... would it?" Emira asked, her smile now an amused smirk.

Amity's eyes widened. "I don't know what you're talking about."

The younger Blight could hear just how bad of a liar she is.

"C'mon, you know I'm gonna get my hands on it eventually so you might as well just let me see it now," Emira said with an extended hand.

Amity quickly weighed her options. She could easily burn her little project but it had taken so much of her time, meaning hours of her life would all be for nothing. Amity also doubted she'd be able to redraw the scene as well as she did, since Grom had only happened a few days prior. There were so many tiny details that she felt were too important to forget and she didn't want to forget a single thing. Now knowing she couldn't burn her drawing she tried staring down her older sibling but it was no use, there was practically nothing that she could do that would scare away her sister. Sighing in defeat Amity reached behind her, gently picking up her drawing and slowly handing it to the older Blight.

Emira took her sister's work and studied it. It was a rather well done picture of her little sister and a certain special someone. The crescent moon was shining brightly behind them as the pair held each other with smiles on their faces. The attention to detail on Amity and the rest of the surrounding environment was lacking. However the girl in her arms somehow seemed too complete, as if the girl was the main illustration and everything else was the background.

This girl was none other than Luz Noceda.

"Please don't tell anyone," Amity whispered.

Emira looked up to see the artist looking down at her feet. The piece of paper in her hands suddenly felt heavy, now knowing just how much this drawing meant to her little sister.

"Amity, do you like Luz?"

"Can you please just give it back already!"

Emira relented and gave back the picture to which Amity stared helplessly at her drawing, her secret now revealed. The two stood in silence for about a minute before the older Blight spoke again.

"You should tell her."

Amity looked down at her feet. "I... I can't."

"Why not," Emira asked with a small smile, trying to lighten the mood.

"I'm scared."

Emira's eyes widened. Out of all the things that she thought Amity would say, that was probably the last thing she thought she'd hear. Her sister was never scared, she would always accept any challenge that came her way no matter how impossible it seemed.

Even during Grom, when Amity came and asked for her and Edric's help, she just assumed that Amity only gave Luz the title of Grom queen because she wanted to help Luz prove to herself that she wasn't fragile. That her younger sister gave up the potential glory to her friend just to help her see that despite being human, Luz could be a true witch. She'd never have thought Amity would ever actually be scared of something, let alone too scared to face it.

"Amity-"

"I'm scared because I don't think I'm good enough for her. She's... strong, capable, fearless, determined, she's everything that I could ever hope to be."

Amity held up her drawing and stared at her drawing of Luz, once again thinking of just how perfect her beautiful smile is.

Emira took a step forward, put both her hands on her sister's shoulders and gave her a reassuring smile. "I know you can do it. You're Amity Blight: Hexside Academy's top student and protégé of Lilith Clawthorne, the leader of the Emperor's Coven! And I know Edric and I don't say this enough... but you're also an amazing sister for constantly putting up with the Mischievous Blight Twins."

Amity gave a small smile in response, but it quickly returned to its saddened state. "Thank you, but she doesn't like me that way."

"That's what everyone thinks when they hide their feelings from someone they like. Aside from your titles and personal achievements, and this isn't the sister in me talking, I think you're a great person. Also, you and Luz would look absolutely adorable together!"

Amity lowered her head in defeat, "She only likes boys."

"Are you sure," Emira questioned. In the Boiling Isles it was normal for the same sex to be in a relationship, but she didn't know how things were on Earth.

Amity nodded her head solemnly, "Luz once told me about how she met this dreamy boy while she was on one of her little adventures and how she thought they apparently had a connection. It turned out that he was just an illusion, but still, she never mentioned having a… close connection with another girl. Even during our Azura book club meetings she only talks about the guys. And... when she told me that she would go to Grom with me she said "That's what friends do"'.

With each word Emira could hear how heartbroken her sister was, but now she could also see how much she was hurting. Her baby sister was crying.

"She'll only ever see me as a friend. That's all I'll ever be to her. Even though I want us to be so much more, even though she means everything to me, I'll only ever be just a friend."

"Amity-"

"Stop!" Amity shouted, causing Emira to let go and take a step back. "Just leave me alone, please?"

Emira wanted to help, but at the same time she didn't want to leave her sister alone with her feelings of self doubt and grief. It was her turn to sigh in defeat.

"Ok, I'll go," Emira said as she headed for the bedroom door, stepping out into the hallway with the door handle in hand. "But you should tell her how you feel. Bottling up your emotions is only going to hurt you more, and you never know... she might be feeling the same way about you."

Before finally closing the door Emira said one last thing, "You really should confess to her, before someone else does."

Author's Note

I LOVE this ship, they're absolutely adorable with each other and it's awesome to see Disney showing some love for the LGBTQ+ community!

Fun Fact: Alex Hirsch planned to include queer characters in Gravity Falls, another amazing show, but Disney told him no. Oh how things have changed… FOR THE BETTER! I'm not queer but I do support it, if you don't… then why are you even reading lol

I haven't really seen a lot of multi-chapter stories in The Owl House, I'm sure that's going to be changing soon enough, so I'm more than happy to spend time contributing to this fandom. I mean COME ON Lumity is absolutely adorable! This story has been pre-written so I will be posting a new chapter every day.

Since The Owl House is still in its first season, with a new episode currently being shown on Disney every Saturday, this story only has character knowledge that has been expressed up to Enchanting Grom Fright. That being said I have done my absolute best to keep the characters from being OOC as possible so that it not only feels like a possible episode, but also because I don't want this story to be completely invalidated later on.

Essentially, I don't want things that are important to this story to be addressed later on in the series to be wrong and then the future reader will go, "Hey! That's wrong! According to episode XX [insert character] wouldn't [insert action]!" And while I could just say, "Look at the URL!" I legitimately want all this to be something that COULD have happened.

I hope you all enjoy the rest of this story! REVIEW when you can and tell me what you think!
