I may have a problem. I just LOVE diving into character's heads; I seriously believe I was like a psychologist in my former life xD

Anyways, if you're wondering, yes, I'm alive. School's made it hard to write, but I appreciate you guys bearing with me. I was originally going to make this a one-shot, but I decided to put it in this collection. Anyways, I loved this scene, and I hope you enjoy my interpretation of it! :)

Seventh Installment: Season 4 Episode 20: A Girl's Sacrifice

Emma's thoughts as she says her goodbyes to Andi, Diego, the Panthers, and Daniel (in spirit) and prepares for her future with Jax.

Emma's POV

I was awaiting Andi's arrival. It's her big day, her first day at W.I.T.s Academy. I looked through the window and smiled as I saw her coming in.

"Hey Em! Are you ready?" she asked while putting her toolbox on my couch. I looked at her, astonished.

"Me? Are you ready?"

"Oh, I'm all packed up! I got my tools, my PX 90 DVD, my homemade guardian's belt, everything I need." She was all smiles, and I could see her anxiousness in her eyes; I swear they were doing back-flips.

I smirked at her. "Not everything."

"What I miss?" she asked, confused. I turned around and grabbed the Hex who was sitting on the table.

Her expression changed. "Emma, no." she started to say.

"It's just a loan. Take good care of him. Gonna need its help to run the realm."

Andi looked at me as though she was about to burst into tears. It made my eyes water too. My best friend is leaving today; it had sunken in.

"Take good care of yourself," I said, my voice cracking. "I'm gonna need you too."

Andi hugged me, and I hugged her back; I loved her like a sister, and I didn't want her to go, but it was the right thing to do; she deserved it.

After we separated, she gathered her things, and we walked to Iridium High together. Little did Andi know there was a surprise waiting for her.

When we got there, Jax, Diego, and the Panthers were waiting, all smiling at her.

"What are you guys doing here?" she asked them.

"We couldn't let you go without saying goodbye," Diego said.

"And making sure you're really leaving," Maddie added. Typical Maddie.

Jax stepped up. "Take care of my sister."

This made Andi make a face of disgust. "Ugh, I forgot she's gonna be there." Jax saw straight through her act, and they gave each other an embrace. I looked at them with all smiles; it was nice to finally see them getting along.

Next, the Panthers walked up to Andi with a bag.

"It's a care package" Katie explained while Sophie handed it to her.

"Even though it's in a bag," Sophie added.

Andi opened it and saw it was a picture of Diego and the Panthers, in a frame.

I was surprised to see Andi actually smile at it, instead of looking at it as if it was diseased. But I admit, I thought it was very thoughtful of them.

"That way you'll never forget the Panthers," Katie said, also on the verge of tears.

"And me," Diego called from afar.

"Like she said, the Panthers!" Sophie exclaimed. Andi put it back in the bag and smiled.

"I don't think I'll ever forget the Panthers."

She put it down to hug Diego and patted him on the back.

After they pulled away, he said, "You're the best." She smiled and replied with, "You are. I hope you go out there and find a million kanays...and a new girlfriend" she then coughed to cover it up. Maddie, as usual, rolled her eyes and pursed her lips.

Andi then smiled and chuckled. "I'm kidding."

"Funny," Maddie said jokingly. "Just be sure not to destroy the academy, okay?"

Andi's smile widened as she said, "Get in here!" and she and Maddie hugged. This was nice to see. Even though they weren't the best of friends, they cared enough that they would miss each other.

Maddie then began to fan back her tears. "Oh, I can't cry; my makeup!" she whimpered, and Diego comforted her.

I then turned to face her. "Ready to go?"

She nodded, and we made our way to the entrance of the magic realm.

As soon as it opened, Gigi ran towards us, with her camera in hand.

"Whoa! What is that?! A nuclear reactor? Right in the hallway?!" she then gasps. "Is the radiation safe?" We all internally groaned, having to again make sure Gigi does not expose magic.

"I got this," Maddie assured, and cast yet another memory wiping spell on her.

Diego sighed. "I wish you wouldn't do that all the time."

"Relax, she'll be fine," Maddie said as they walked away to put Gigi somewhere where she can't remember what she saw.

My attention turned back to Andi. "Remember, I'm here for anything you need."

"I know," she said with a smile.

"Are you nervous? Afraid?"

She thought about it for a minute, then said, "NO! W.I.T.s Academy, here I come!" She took Hex from me and ran into the entrance.

"Remember to concentrate on where you want to go!" I called after her.

Jax walked toward me, chuckling. "I don't think she heard you; that landing's gonna hurt." He laughed again, while made me grin in return, and he pulled me in for an embrace.

Maddie came back with Diego, hand in hand. "Well, we're off too."

Jax and I pulled away to face then, his hand firmly in mine. "Off to where?" I asked her.

"To find more kanays," he said excitedly. "I know that they're out there. Look." he pulls out a stone with a spider on it. "Even found my first clue." Jax and I exchanged looks, happy for him. "It's from the Everglades."

"Who gave that to you?" Katie asked while looking at it closely. Everyone looked puzzled, but I bowed my head and held back my smile; I know exactly who gave it to Diego.

"It's weird actually, I don't know." And with that, he and the Panthers waved goodbye and walked off, and Jax and I were left in the hallway alone.

He turned to look at me, with a hopeful smile. I returned it, still fighting back tears.

"I feel like a part of our lives is ending," I admitted.

"That's true-" he agreed, looking down for a split second before his eyes were once again set on mine. "But it's also a new beginning."

I bit back a smile, knowing he was right. A tear fell in the process. "What do you think it will be like?"

"I'm not sure," he admitted. He then took both of my hands and I felt his deep chocolate brown eyes pierce into mine. "But I do know one thing: as long as we have each other, we'll be okay."

I knew he was right, even though I was in pain at that moment. I just said goodbye to two important people in my life: Daniel and Andi. They were the first two people I met when I moved to Miami, and I thought I could never imagine a life without them, but I let them go. Both were happier going their separate ways. Daniel in the Everglades and Andi training to be my guardian. Daniel had everything he wanted: his family, his life, and his girlfriend, who I realized is not so bad of a person. I'll see Andi again, but I probably won't see Daniel for a while, and for the first time, I was okay with that. I realized that I can't have everything altered to my liking and that I have to think of the other person.

This is something I will keep in mind when it is my time to run and protect the entire Magic Realm, and Jax will be with me every step of the way. He's changed into such a caring and supportive person and boyfriend, I couldn't ask for anything better than that.

I smiled and looked at him, loving how hopeful and safe he made me feel. He gave my hands a light squeeze before cupping my face and giving me the passionate and comforting kiss I needed to move on with my life. I felt myself crying in the middle of it, but his soft thumbs pushed away my tears, helping me focus on savoring the pleasure of his lips on mine.

I was a little afraid of what lied ahead, but I knew that with Jax with me, I could conquer anything that comes my way. This is one of the reasons I loved him; hopefully one day I'll be brave enough to admit it. I believe that's the Jax effect. His heavily-attractive Australian accent sometimes made it hard to think straight. I didn't find it fair, but I realized it's something I have to live with. He's my leather and I'm his glitter, and I considered that combination beautiful.

dreamingatmidnight: LOL ik. I love Jax a bit too much. And I get what you mean about writing couples that are goals xD
