"Oh my goodness, it looks amazing!" Nikki said as she looked at the finished bakery.
"It looks so much better than I thought" Keisha said as she sat on some cobblestone. "So can I sell potatos here or?" Nikki and I laughed,
"Yes you can" Nikki said,
"Yes" Keisha's fists flew into the air, "I'm gonna make all the stonks"
"Aren't you supposed to be meeting up with Tommy for a date" I teased,
"It's not a date" Keisha defended,
"Uh huh" I said with a grin.
"It's not... we're just hanging out" she said with a pout.
"Ok, ok" I laughed.
"But yes.... So I'm gonna go" she said awkwardly and left.
"She likes him doesn't she?" Nikki asked and I nodded.
"Now, we have a bakery to stock" I said and we headed inside. Soon we had half of the shelves covered in sweet and savory treats.

We were sat down waiting for the next batch to be done when we heard Tommy shouting. Nikki and I looked at each other and shook our heads with a smile before Tommy came into view... holding what looked to be a fairly wounded Keisha.
"It wasn't my fault" Tommy said as he walked up to us.
"Bring her inside" Nikki said opening the door.
"What happened?" I asked.
"A creeper snuck up on us" Tommy said and set Keisha down on the table. She winced as she was laid down.
"You need to be more careful" Nikki said as she looked for something to help.
"It came out of nowhere" Tommy said as I went to help Nikki look,
"I don't have anything" Nikki said as Tommy squealed. I looked over to see Keisha laid limp on the table.
"What do we do, what do we do, what do we do?" Tommy started panicking, "Wilburs going to kill me!"
"Is she still breathing?" Nikki asked.
"A little" Tommy replied. I walked over, it was an accident so this should be fine right? I placed my hand on one of her wounds and took a breath. "What are you doing!?" Tommy asked.
"Just shut up for a minute" I said.
"But-" Tommy started.
"I'm going to help" I said trying to remember the words.
"How's that helping?" Tommy asked with wide eyes.
"Are you going shut up or get out?" I asked.
"I'll be quiet" he said.
"Ok.. uhm Flower gleam and glow"

Keisha sat up as Tommy started to panic.
"What the hell?" Tommy shouted,
"How are you feeling?" I asked ignoring Tommy.
"I feel fine" she said looking over herself, "What happened?"
"Kiara's fucking magic!" Tommy shouted.
"Please calm down Tommy" I said.
"How long have you been able to do this?" Nikki asked.
"For a long time, but I've only known for a little while" I said.
"Do you know how much money we could make?" Tommy said going into business mode. "We could build a hospital and then, because people get hurt all of the time-"
"No" I said.
"What?" Tommy asked confused.
"There's very few people that know about it and I'd rather keep it that way" I said.
"Wait does Wilbur know?" Tommy asked. I shook my head. "If Wilbur Doesn't know then who does?"
"Dream and his friends" I said.
"DREAM KNOWS AND NOT WILBUR?"
"Dream was the one who showed me I can do it. He knew longer than I did" I said.
"How the hell does that work?" Keisha asked.
"Because when I was dying he saved me a little too well" I said.
"Right" Keisha nodded.
"It's hard to explain and I don't completely get it myself" I said.
"Well either way, we are relieved that Keisha is ok" Nikki said and I nodded.

*********************

"What did I just hear from Tommy?" Wilbur asked walking inside. I let out a sigh as I turned around.
"What did you hear?" I asked.
"Apparently my girlfriend can heal people" he said looking at me. I gave him a weak smile. "Is it true?"
"Yeah" I said being honest with him as I looked down at the ground, my tail flicking back and forth.
"Why didn't you tell me?" He asked walking over and grabbing my hands gently.
"I'm already weird enough" I said with a small laugh. One of his hands left mine and instead went to my cheek gently making me look up at him.
"You aren't weird at all to me" he said with a warm smile. "And this gift you have isn't something to be ashamed about. It's amazing, think of all the amazing things you could do, all the people you could help"
"Yeah" I said with a half smile.
"I won't talk about it if you don't want me to, but just know I don't love you any less because of it" he leaned in, "and I can't possibly love you more" he pressed a kiss to my cheek. I smiled burying my face into his chest hugging him.
"Thank you" I said.
"There's no need to thank me" he said rubbing my back.
"I love you too by the way" I said and he laughed.
"I hope so" he laughed.
