chapter twenty one - no.

"Mina!" You whispered through her door.
The two of you hadn't talked since the morning after your argument and it was driving you insane. All you wanted was to tell her that you'd made it, and apologize for your little quarrel.
"Y/n?"
"Yeah, it's me."
The door opened to reveal a disarranged Wilhemina.
"Mina? Are you alright?"
"I- uhm-." Her voice cracked.
The Sanctuary, she didn't make it. That was the only thing that could've done this to her.
"No." You muttered.
She silently nodded and opened the door more, motioning for you to come in.
"Mina." You broke the silence that had been surrounding the two of you for the past minutes.
"I'm not going to the Sanctuary y/n."
"Then I'm not going."
"You made it?" She turned to face you.
You looked down at your hands.
"It doesn't matter, I'm not going."
"Please y/n, I don't have energy to argue with you."
"I don't want to argue either."
"Then lay with me?" She leaned back into her bed and made room for you.
You crawled over her and rested your head on her chest, and her fingers immediately began to run through your hair.
"I'm sorry Mina."
"For what?"
"Arguing the other day. And that you didn't make it." The last sentence came out of your mouth quieter than the first.
"Don't apologize." She whispered.
"I love you."
"I love you too." She kissed your forehead.
You couldn't help the tears escaping your eyes, and Mina noticed.
"What's wrong?"
"I don't want to leave you." Your voice trembled as the words left your mouth.
"Oh my sweet girl, I don't want you to leave either." She sighed. "But you have to."
"Why?"
"Because you deserve a chance at a good life. You've gone through so much and I want it to change for you."
"I don't want that without you there."
"I know, but I can't do anything but let you go."
You sighed in defeat and took her free hand into yours.
"But while we're still together, I'm going to hold you and love you and spend every last minute with you."
"Wilhemina Venable, you've gone soft."
"I have not."
You giggled at her.
"Alright fine, but only for you."
You wanted to enjoy this moment in her arms more than anything, but you couldn't sit and pretend nothing was wrong while knowing that you would be
leaving her.
