AN: soooo it's taken a long time for me to update because I've had exams and crap like that going on…the holiday season is usually very busy for me. But I'm back with the last part of my story. Hope you enjoy!
…Oh by the way this one Helen's POV
I gasped. Did he really? No, there is not way that those words came out of his mouth. I drop his hand. "Will are you sure this is not the medication talking? They have you on excessively strong medication, I can come back later, and we can discuss this at a later time." Way to go Helen, just deflect like you always do. Would it be so bad to let yourself be in love once again? You love him, so why would you say something like that? Oh yeah it's because he just got into a serious accident and doesn't know what he's talking about.
Will looks at me like I have grown a second head. "Helen, I am being myself here. I didn't even know that I was on medication until you said something. You don't need to come back, we talk about this right now." He picks up my hand again and waits for me to say something.
"Will, I…" I sigh and wait for the words that I have buried for so long to come back to life. "When I saved you all those years ago, it was strictly for selfish purposes. I had intended to bring you under my wing, but what I never counted on was that I would become taken with you like I have. It is strange in a sense that a companion was something that I never figured I would crave again, until you showed up into my life. You have brought me so much light that I am no longer the bitter immortal that I once was." Feeling a little weak physically I sit on the bed with Will, giving me a better view to gauge his reaction, as well as providing me with a bit of support. "When Ashley died, I for sure thought that I would follow her. But something stopped those thoughts almost as soon as they came up. You were there to comfort me, to keep me sane, to let me cry and reminisce in the good times that I had with Ashley. It was you that kept me ground to this life. Instead of following my daughter to the grave, I stayed for you…"
"You stayed for me? Helen, if you ever considered THAT as an option, why didn't you tell me? I would've been there for you." Will wiped away a stray tear and his hand remained on my cheek.
I placed my hand on top of his. "I could never ask that of you Will."
Will chuckles. "When you love someone, truly love someone, they don't have to ask you to do something. You gain another sense for that person. I have become so in tune with you Helen, that if you would have gave me some inclination, you would have been my priority."
I hush him. "You got to finish what you said, so can you offer me the same courtesy?" He nods. "Right, I stayed for you. It was hard at first, but I now realize that it was the right decision. You have showed me that even though love has never been a part of my life, you accept what I do and would even put yourself in front of anything for me. Will you truly are my other half, and I would not be in my right mind, if I said that I didn't love you…" I stop and collect my thoughts before I place my heart on the line for this incredible man right in front of me.
"Because the truth is, the day that you started working for me, was the day I realized that I love you. And I still do. I love you Will, more than you know." I bend to meet his soft lips, in the gentlest yet passionate kiss I have had.
I hear a clearing of the throat behind me. I break away from Will and turn to see Kate and Henry standing in the door way with an amused look on their faces. Henry laughs.
"We can come back if you want Magnus." Henry says after he calmed down from his laughing fit. Kate just stood next to him still amused and looking quite unsure about what she needs to say.
I shake my head. "No you can stay. We are okay now, right will?"
Will nods and squeezes my hand. "We are more than okay. Everything from this point on will be perfect." He smiles up at me, and then begins asking Henry about what happened. For some reason, regardless of the place that this has occurred in, I realize that I have finally gotten my happily ever after, the perfect ending to my fairy tale. And maybe I will take Ashley up on her opinion and offer Will the Source blood, but there is still time for the future, for now I'll enjoy my fairy tale.
AN: And now it is complete! Drop me a line and let me know what you think. [:
