Chapter 12

Opening the door Layla could see Helia sitting in one of the chairs on the other side of the room. She looked to her left to see that the girls were sitting in the chairs next to the door.

"Can I go and see Flora now?" Helia asked when he noticed Layla.

"Not right now," Layla replied, "She and Roxy are sleeping."

"I don't care I am going to see Flora now." Helia yelled as he stood up.

"Calm down Helia." Bloom said.

"Calm down! Calm down!" Helia yelled, "It's because of you that she had to go through with that!"

"Helia she volunteered to do this." Stella replied.

"No," Helia yelled as he shook his head, "You girls had to have tricked her into doing this."

"Helia," Layla said.

"I don't want to listen to you," Helia yelled, "I just want to get to Flora and get her away from all of you before you make her do something that she would never do again." He pushed past Layla and started to open the doorway was met with Faragonda's firm face. She stood protectively in the doorway with her arms crossed and an un-amused expression on her face.

"I think its time you left."

"Why should I?" He asked, defensively, testing her patience.

"Because if you don't I'll have you forcefully removed. I have two students who are trying to rest inside and neither of them needs you at the moment."

"Flora does, she's lost her mind!"

"No she hasn't, she made a decision, one that you will learn about at the appropriate time which isn't now." Conceding defeat he turned away and started down the hallway in a huff, the girls worried at his sudden change of attitude.

"So how are Flora and Roxy?" Stella asked as she turned to look at Layla.

"Everything seems to have worked," Layla replied, "And I have never seen either of them with bigger smiles on their faces."

Faragonda closed the door before turning and walking to the resting fairies. "Flora," she whispered softly, waking her.

"I'm sorry dear but we need to test whether it worked."

Flora nodded before carefully moving away from Roxy with a loving gaze, she proceeded to get herself dressed and paused at the door, knowing the girls would want to ask questions the moment she stepped outside.

"How is Roxy?" Tecna asked.

"I was able to give her the antidote," Flora replied, "Hopefully at the right time."

"Sure sounded like you were having a good time in there," Musa commented causing Flora's cheeks to turn a light shade of red.

"Come on girl details!" Stella blurted out.

"Stella!" The girls all yelled at once when they saw the shade of red on Flora's cheeks deepen.

"Like you girls weren't wondering yourself." Stella said as she looked at the other girls.

"It…it…it was amazing," Flora replied, "Helia never made me feel that way."

The girls eyes widened in shock at what Flora had just said.

"I…I have had dreams of doing that since we met Roxy." Flora continued, "And it was better then I could ever have imagined."

"You-you what!" Stella shrieked, mouth agape in shock.

"But…I thought you were…you know," Bloom started, picking her words carefully. "Straight?"

"I have never had these types of feelings before girls." Flora explained, "I just felt some kind of deep connection as soon as I saw Roxy, something in the bottom of my heart just told me that I loved her. I just never realized till now how much until now."

Flora's cheeks reddened slightly when the doors opened and the girls all turned to see Ms. Faragonda with a less then happy expression on her face. The heat in her cheeks vanished and her eyes, which were full of love, were now full of worry.

"Ms. Faragonda?" Flora asked. "How is she?" Musa added.

"It's not good girls, I'm afraid that the Spiffy added an extra strain to the muscles in her heart. Being so overtly excited made her hearts rhythm change and work overtime to try and defeat the drug," She paused, looking from student to student. "Roxy's heart is failing her."

"But-but how?" Layla asked when Flora ran past the headmistress and to Roxy's side with tears in her eyes. The others followed as Flora kissed the top of Roxy's head and held her hand tight.

"But…how, there must be something we can do!" she sobbed. "There is," Faragonda replied, turning to Musa.

"You mean," Musa said when she looked at the headmistresses face.

Ms. Faragonda nodded her head to Musa's inquiry.

"But why are you asking me?" Musa asked.

"She listed you as a contact in cases like this."

"Wait…what are you talking about?" Flora asked, confused.

"Galatea, she has given me the right to decide if she donates an organ after her death." Musa replied.

"Tests have shown that she is almost a perfect match for Roxy." Ms. Faragonda said.

"Please Musa you have to allow them to do this." Flora pleaded.

"Why should I?" Musa yelled, "It's her fault that Galatea is dead."

"Yes it is but I'm sure that Galatea would want Roxy to live," Faragonda added, hoping that Musa would make the right decision.

"I-" she paused, looking to the animal fairy and then to Flora's tear filled eyes. "I don't know.

"Please, Musa," Flora sobbed, "Galatea sacrificed herself to save Roxy, letting her die makes all of her efforts in vain."

"Okay," she whispered, lifting her gazed to Faragonda's. "Save Roxy, it's what she would have wanted." Flora ran from her side and took Musa into an embrace. "Thank you."

After watching Roxy be taken off to the operating room Flora walked outside to get some fresh air. Ending up in the courtyard Flora walked over and sat down on one of the benches and looking toward the ground, her heart felt like it was being ripped out of her body not knowing if Roxy was going to be okay.

On top of her nervousness over Roxy's health Flora was still wondering what Helia would think when he found out about what had happened. As she looked up she could see Helia walking toward her. As he approached she could see anger in him that she had never seen before.

Helia paced before her, hands on his hips, facing away as she looked to the ground, wondering what to say to him. "Helia I-"

"How could you!" He turned. "How could you do that to me?"

"To you!" Flora screamed. "I didn't do anything to you; I did it to save Roxy!"

"Why?"

"What do you mean why?" Someone had to do it! To save her!"

"Why?" Flora stopped; she had never heard him this rough before, this angry before.

"Did you honestly expect me to just stand back and let her die? When I had a chance to help save her life?" He didn't answer, and instead looked away. "Sweetie."

"No," he shook his head. "Don't you ever call me that, do you have any idea how much you hurt me, when I found out that…you…and she were…"

"I know it must have hurt," Flora replied. "But you know that I've always been brought up with a kind hearted love for all creatures great and small."

"And female," he replied, making Flora scowl.

"Don't give me that."

"How can't I?" He snapped. "What you just did with Roxy, how you felt with her, that makes everything that we had a lie."

"No it doesn't!"

"Yes it does! I saw it in your eyes… you've changed Flora. You look at her the same way that you used to look at me. Were over."

"Helia how could you say that?" Flora asked as she stood up.

"I said that we're over." Helia yelled as he turned to look at Flora, "Go back to your bitch!"

The sound of Flora's hand striking against Helia's cheek echoed through the courtyard. He watched as Flora ran inside the hospital with tears flowing from her eyes as he raised his hand to the red mark on the side of his face.

Running through the hallways Flora made her way up to room that the girls were sitting in. She burst into the room and wiped at the tears in her eyes. "Hey, Flora what happened?" Bloom asked, bringing the nature fairy into a hug as she hiccupped the story into her ear.

"Its okay, Flo," Musa reassured. "Helia's just confused, that's all." In true honesty they all were.

"He disrespected Roxy; I've never seen him like that before." She stepped backwards from Bloom and fell to her side slightly making Layla react and catch her before she fell.

"Flora, you need to get some rest."

"No, I need to be here when Roxy gets back."

"You're exhausted," Stella sighed, leading the nature fairy over to a bench chair and helping her lie down. "How about you just rest here for a while and we'll wake you up the moment that Roxy comes back. Okay?"

"Okay," Flora sighed, her eyes closing immediately. "The poor thing, she's exhausted," Tecna sighed.

The dream that Flora had was of her and Roxy having a picnic all alone together. She could tell that they were having a great time by the smile on Roxy's face. A shadow appeared behind Roxy and wrapped itself around her body. As Flora tried to save Roxy she turned her head to see Helia standing near her, she called out to him to save Roxy but he turned around and walked away.

Flora opened her eyes and sat up breathing hard with sweat beading on the brow of her head. She turned to see Layla and Bloom leaning against one another in chairs asleep, turning her head she could see that Stella and Tecna had fallen asleep in a different set of chairs and Musa was sleeping on a second bench chair.

Ms. Faragonda exited the door to see Flora looking startled. "Flora, are you alright?"

"Yes," she replied. "Just a bad dream, how's Roxy?"

"They're finishing the surgery now, no complications thus far, but they want to keep her for a week or so to make sure."

"But she's okay?"

"Yeah," Ms. Faragonda smiled. "She's going to make a full recovery."

Flora felt like a weight had been lifted off of her. She was so happy that Roxy was going to pull through everything that the Trix had put her through.

"Can I go see her?" Flora asked.

"She will not be awake."

"That's fine," Flora replied, "I just wanted to see for myself that she is fine."

"Okay follow me."

One week later the girls found themselves standing at their friend's tombstone, placing white roses over the coffins black lid. "Galatea was a kind and honest fairy," Musa started to read. "She was loyal and devoted her life to making music and making people happy. And today we celebrate the life that she lived." She looked to her page, the quiver in her voice inaudible. "Galatea was my friend, we grew up together at the palace and grew apart at times, but we always managed to find each other again, and her ability to heal and forgive others was always incredibly strong."

"I envied that ability, but believe that even though she may be gone she has taught us valuable lessons about life, forgiveness and sacrifice. Thank you for everything, may you rest in peace." Roxy carefully stood from her wheelchair and placed a hand against the coffin as the rest of the attendants left. "Are you okay?" Flora asked, slipping a hand around her waist to steady her. "Yeah I'm fine," Roxy smiled sadly, "It's just that I owe her my life, quite literally."

"And I owe her mine too," Flora smiled, giving Roxy a peck on the cheek. "Come on we better get you back to the hospital to rest."

Helia stood at a nearby tree as everyone passed. "Man you coming?" Brandon asked. "No I'll see you at the wake later," he explained before Stella and Brandon left. He saw the two fairies talking about something and, when Flora's arm slipped around her waist he felt sick to the stomach with a mixture of jealous rage and hatred at the same time. Turning away as she kissed Roxy's cheek, which sent another dagger flying into Helia's heart, he started for his hover bike but stopped suddenly when he heard his phone beginning to ring.

Roxy was nervous as she approached the gate to her house, she felt hot and cold at the same time, and her hands shook uncontrollably.

"It will be okay," Flora explained, taking her hand into her own and giving it a reassuring squeeze when they saw Artu playing in the yard with Morgana.

"Roxy!" She yelled, rushing forwards to take her daughter into a hug. "Where have you been? Your father and I have been worried sick." Pain shot through Roxy's chest and Morgana noticed it immediately. "What's wrong sweetie?"

"It's a long story."

"From the looks on your faces I can tell." Morgana said as she looked at the two fairies, "Let's go inside so you can tell me everything."

"Oh dear!" Morgana sighed, after hearing their tale, minus a few chosen details. "But you are okay now, aren't you?"

"Yes mom, I'm fine…but there's something that we didn't tell you about how we removed the Spiffy from my body."

"You used the antidote, what's there to know?" Morgana asked, noticing Roxy's eyes divert to Flora's, seeking reassurance. "Flora…she saved my life and…Mom…I'm in love with her."

Morgana wasn't sure how to react; she had never thought Roxy was that way inclined.

"I…" Roxy stumbled, seeing her mother's expression change. "I…"

"Roxy its okay, calm down," Flora hushed, rubbing circles on her back.

"Mom, say something."

"I'm not sure what to say," she admitted and tears slowly leaked from the corner of Roxy's eyes making Flora take her girlfriend into a warm embrace. "It's okay…shh, it's okay." She whispered.

"I love you, Roxy," Morgana explained.

The animal fairy lifted her head and wiped a stray tear from her eye. "All I want is the best for you and for you to find happiness. And…If you've found that with Flora who I can see clearly cares a lot about you, then who am I to judge." Roxy's face beamed with a smile as she rushed out of her seat and gave her mother a massive hug.

"Thank you mom."

Just as Roxy released her mother from the massive hug the front door of the house opened. "Roxy!" Klaus said when he noticed Roxy.

"Hi dad," Roxy replied as she looked at her father.

"Where have you been?" Klaus asked as he walked quickly toward his daughter. "You just disappeared after leaving the bar one night."

"Klaus," Morgana said causing her husband to look at her, "You'll need to sit down there is a lot for her to explain."

Klaus nodded his head and took a seat next to Morgana. After listening to what Roxy had to tell him Klaus turned to look at Flora.

"How could you girls let this happen to my daughter?" He yelled at Flora.

"I'm sorry if there was anything that we could have done to not let that happen to Roxy then we would have." Flora replied.

"I don't care," Klaus said with a raised voice, "I don't want her talking to any of you."

"Dad!" Roxy yelled.

"It's because of them that you were almost killed." Klaus said as he turned his vision toward Roxy.

"I want you home, right now, and you're to never see them again!"

"No!" Roxy refused, standing to her feet. "No I'm not going to leave Flora and the others!"

"Yes you are! Roxy this is for your own good!"

"Klaus don't you think you're being a little harsh?" Morgana asked, hoping to calm him down.

"No!" He yelled. "How can you just sit there and take all of this in? And you!" He snapped, pointing his finger directly at Flora who stood next to Roxy holding her hand firmly. "You dare to call her your friend! When you can't even protect her!"

"Dad stop it! Don't blame Flora; she's the one who saved my life! And…and I'll never leave her!"

"Why the hell not?" Klaus barked, stepping closer toward the two.

"Because I love her!" Roxy screamed, tears drying on her cheeks.

Klaus stood back for a second and started to laugh. "Roxy you can't be serious."

"I am!" She stood firm. "Flora is the best thing that's ever happened to me, she and I love one another and I don't care what you say or demand I'm never leaving her."

"Can't you even hear yourself? What happened to my daughter, the one who used to follow what her mother and father said, huh? Where did she go?"

"She's right here," Flora replied, wrapping an arm around Roxy's waist protectively. "This is your daughter."

"You have no say in this. Roxy come home and back to normality."

"No!" Roxy yelled. "I'm not going to let you protect me anymore dad, I can look after myself."

"Good, then if you can do that so well you can turn around, walk out that door and never come back."

"Klaus!" Morgana shrieked, standing to her feet though he raised a hand into the air. "If Roxy really wants to show how independent she is, then she doesn't need us. Go, you and all of your friends are no longer welcome in this house."

"D-Dad," Roxy stuttered.

"Don't 'dad' me…only my daughter gets to call me that and right now…I don't have one."

New tears fell from her eyes as Flora helped her to the door where she gave a sad smile to her mother before leaving their lives forever.

"How do you feel snookums?" Stella asked, seeing Brandon cradle his arm over his ribs while resting on his crutches.

"It's tender but not too bad, baby," he smiled when she shrieked and practically face-planted into a stores glass shop front.

"Bloom, I'm glad that I found you, I wanted to ask you where Sky was." Bloom couldn't help but see the bulging baby belly her nemesis harbored.

"He's dead." She sighed.

Mitzi's eyes widened in shock from what Bloom had just said. She was surprised that she could sound so cold toward anyone. As she stood there world around her began to spin and she started to fall forward. Reacting quickly Bloom caught her so she would not fall to the ground.

"What do you want Mitzi," Bloom asked, getting to the point.

"I…wanted to talk to him, to explain something."

"Well he's dead so that can't happen," Bloom snarled. Mitzi still didn't reply. "I…uh…can we talk, Bloom?"

"If we have to," she rolled her eyes before Mitzi walked to a nearby bench and took a seat, resting her aching feet.

"I'm not going to waste anymore of your time, Bloom so I'll just come out and say it." She looked up, protectively covering her baby with her arms. "My baby…it's not Sky's."

"What the fuck did you just say?" Bloom asked as she looked at Mitzi.

"I said that Sky is not the father." Mitzi replied as she looked to the floor of the mall, "I had gone to a party and ran into my ex Troy. During that party he ended up getting me drunk and then raped me." Tears began to flow from Mitzi's eyes as she looked up at Bloom.

"After waking up with his arms around me with both of us naked I gathered my clothing then noticed that I had been violated. I got a test as fast as I could and found out that I was carrying his child." Bloom could hear the girl sitting before her sobbing as she continued. "I went to that bar just to figure out what to do with the baby. I was even thinking that it might be better just to end everything."

"While I was at the bar I saw that Sky was there. I then had an idea when I saw what type of mind set that he was in. I got myself and him drunk." A small smile appeared on her lips, "You know he really could not hold his liquor."

"Yeah I know that." Bloom replied as she glared at Mitzi.

"When we were both drunk the bartender would not let me go home alone. He told Sky to make sure that I made it home in one piece, it was late at night and I was all alone. When we arrived back at my home I asked him to come in. He tried to tell me that he needed to get home, but I would not take no for an answer."

"After a little time I finally was able to get him to come inside when I fell forward and he caught me. He took me up to my bedroom and I seduced him and we had sex. After that point in time I began to tell people that he was the father of my unborn child."

"YOU BITCH!" Bloom yelled, grabbing Mitzi by the collar as Stella raced to her side, Brandon not far behind.

"Bloom, what's going on?" Brandon asked, trying to pull her away.

"You, because of you Sky is dead!" Bloom yelled.

"What do you mean Bloom?" Stella asked.

"This fucking bitch lied about Sky being the father of her child," Bloom replied as she let go of Mitzi's collar, "If she had never done that then Roxy and I would have never been on the beach where we were attacked by the Trix, Galatea would still be alive and so would Sky."

"What is she talking about?" Mitzi asked naively causing Bloom to charge. Luckily Brandon, in spite of the pain shooting through his ribs, managed to grab her from behind and lifted her away in an attempt to stop her from doing something she would regret later.

Stella walked to the young woman with hatred burning in her eyes. "I…I don't know what I'm supposed to do to make everything right again?" Mitzi asked and Stella smirked.

"You want to help?" She nodded.

"Bloom!" She called, making her break from Brandon's grasp. "I have an idea."

Bloom stopped beside Stella as the Sun fairy whispered her idea into Bloom's ear. A large smile grew on Bloom's face as she listened to her friend.

The two girls raised their hands toward Mitzi. "Then you can forget," Stella replied, her hands beginning to glow. "You can forget about us, you can forget about the specialists and you can forget about Bloom."

Roxy lifted her face from Flora's shoulder before placing a hand to her cheek. "I'm so lucky to have you," she smiled and Flora did the same before leaning in for a peck on the lips. "It will be okay," Flora reassured, taking Roxy's hand into her own. "We'll get through this together. Your dad will come around eventually; it will just take some time."

"Hey love birds," Musa joked, approaching with Tecna by her side as they took a seat on the soft grass by their friends in Gardenia Park.

"Hi." Roxy replied.

"Flora mentioned that your visit didn't go as planned," Tecna announced and Roxy nodded. "Yeah but it will be okay."

"Hey girls!" Layla smiled, running from across the street to meet them. "Where are Bloom and Stella?"

"They should be here soon," Flora explained when she saw them walking their way. "Oh, look there they are. Bloom! Stella!" she waved.

The others turned to see Bloom and Stella entering the park, Flora remembered that Stella had told her when she had called that they had a run in with Mitzi and that something had happened.

When Bloom saw Roxy's face she ran over and dropped to her knees next to her friend, "What happened?"

"My…my…fath." Roxy chocked out as tears began to flow from her eyes again.

"Girls Roxy will be staying with us for a while." Flora said as she wrapped her arm around Roxy's shoulders.

"What?" Layla asked, "Why will she be staying with us?"

"Her father threw her out of the house." Flora replied as she squeezed Roxy's shoulders comfortingly before turning to look at Stella, "You said that you two had some news."

"Yeah," Stella said. "While we were at the mall we ran into Mitzi. She ended up telling Bloom that Sky was not the father of her child."

"What!" Musa yelled.

"She told me that she was raped by an ex-boyfriend. And that she was already pregnant with her child when she had sex with Sky." Bloom replied.

"So because of her I went through that living hell!" Roxy yelled.

"I'm sorry but yes." Bloom said with a saddened voice.

"I…I can never forgive her." Roxy replied.

"No but if it was not for her lie then we would have never told each other that we loved one another." Flora said as she squeezed Roxy's shoulders.

"So what did you do to her?" Layla asked, "You had to be pissed at what she had told you."

"Yes I was," Bloom replied, "I had thought about burning her to ashes right then and there, but the plan that Stella had come up with was much better."

"What plan?" Tecna asked.

"We erased her memories of all of us; she will never remember any of us or the boys again." Stella replied, "If we ever run into her then it will be like meeting her for the first time."

"Not that we want to do that in a hurry!" Musa laughed earning smiles from the others.

"It's for the best," Flora agreed.

"What are we going to do now?" Roxy asked and Stella smiled.

"Go back to our boring everyday lives obviously!" Stella joked.

A nervous look appeared on the young animal fairies face as she listened. Bloom placed a hand on Roxy's should and smiled at her friend.

"Are you okay?" Bloom asked.

"I…I just don't think that I can go back to Alfea right now." Roxy answered.

"Don't worry Roxy," Tecna said, "I'm sure that we can set something up with Ms. Faragonda."

Bloom placed a hand on Roxy's shoulder causing the animal fairy to look up at her smiling friend, "As long as we stick together then what could possibly go wrong?"

A small smile appeared on Roxy's face.

Sitting on the edge of his bed Helia reached over and grabbed his phone off of the dresser nearby. Flipping the phone open he clicked down until he reached the message that he was looking for.

'I know how you can get Flora back.' He read before clicking on the reply.

'Tell me.' Helia typed into the phone.

Dropping his hands down he waited for a reply. After the beeping sound he lifted the phone up and read the message. A small smile appeared on his face before he closed the phone. After standing to his feet he placed the phone into his pocket before walking toward the door.

Helia exited the dorm running into Riven knocking him off of his feet. The magenta haired Specialist looked up at his friend.

"Where are you going in such a hurry?" Riven asked.

"To make everything the way it should be."
