The Queen and Her King

A Chance

Brielle POV

I wish I could stay in Harry's comfortable arms forever. He's just so warm and gives the best hugs, but there is one big issue with that. While we are currently hugging Audrey is practically screaming to our right, throwing an absolute tantrum. I peered out from Harry's grasp and narrowed my eyes at her,

"What are you crying about?"

I said with mild disgust. I mean come on, out of all the people here that should be having an emotional breakdown right now she is on the bottom of that list. Audrey looked at me with a fit of fiery anger that I thought would go away with the scepter,

"Don't you get it?! I just wanted a h-happy ending! I w-want Ben! I want a c-crown! I want to b-be happy!"

She shouted, but I understood all of that. I guess I should narrow down my question. I sadly had to untangle myself from my fiancé's arms and walked over to Audrey's bedside. She looked at me and sniffled for a moment with a pouty bottom lip and everything,

"How were you trying to get your happy ending?"

I softly spoke. Audrey sighed as Queen Leah handed her a tissue which she promptly dabbed her eyes with. Harry walked my way and stood by my side,

"I-I wanted to get rid of t-the VKs that ruined my h-happy ending. Then I wanted to make everyone forget they ever existed... I k-knew I could do it because I t-tricked Chad into thinking I spelled you to like h-him..."

She giggled some before it promptly melted into crying again. But I was too busy being in shock... if she hadn't lost I could've... forgotten my Harry? She couldn't have made me, no way in hell... I can't imagine it. How miserable would I have been... I can't imagine my life without Harry. I like to believe that it would be harder than simply erasing my memory, what about the pictures? The gifts? The pendant around my neck... I had to have remembered him with all of that if my memory was wiped right? I don't know... but the thought is beyond chilling for me. I looked up at Harry and wrapped my arms around his torso and just squeezed a little,

"... but... I-I had just g-gotten enough p-power to do so and h-had just turned t-the main group to stone... I was g-going to take down my first VK on his own... the first o-one that messed with my happy ending... Harry, s-so I caught Brielle as bait for h-him and I k-knew he would die for her... b-but Brielle... you d-decided to j-jump in the way and r-ruin all of it!"

I just stared at her for a moment or two before slowly backing away and tugging Harry along with me. FG sensed my uneasiness it seemed and took over for me and began very harshly scolding Audrey for her actions while Harry and I stood on the other side of the room. Harry peered down at me as I began to feel really emotional.

The thought of the possibility of me forgetting Harry was really really really scary for me. I remember how sadly miserable I was, he brought a sort of happiness and a light into my life that I never thought I would get. So I shamelessly clung to Harry and felt myself beginning to shiver,

"Bonnie lass? What is it darlin'? What's got ya shivering?"

Harry softly whispered to me as he kept one arm around me and gently tipped my chin up with his other hand to look at him. I looked at him, now with a genuine look of fear in my eyes,

"I-I don't like t-thinking about l-losing my m-memory of you... I-I w-would be m-miserable"

I whispered, but Harry being his wonderfully amazing self only softened more and leaned down to press his forehead against mine,

"Hey, love nothin' like that is gonna happen alright? No one, and I mean no one, is ever gonna take me away from ya, nothing, no magic or spell or even a curse would ever keep me away from ya for long yeh? Even if she had... erased me from yer memory ya know what I would have done?"
