The Spirit Princess {A Lloyd x Reader} || OLD

True Potential

It's time for training and we're getting started

It's on, you know

And we wanna see you whip and shout it

We rock

You roll

They say go slow

And everything just stands so still

We say go, go

We're ready for the fight

We know the drill

It seems so long ago

"This part is— okay, listen."

"Okay, here it comes."

They say go slow!

And everything just stands so still!

(*dies of laughter*)

We say go, go!

The ninja were celebrating the defeat of the Sons of Garmadon and baby Wu dances around happily. Misako laughs, looking at Wu.

"That must be a strange sight— to see someone you've known for so long suddenly look so young." Pixal assumes.

"He always had a young soul. At least he's happy." Misako explains.

...jump and do it again

Pixal turns around to look at Lloyd and I turn away before she could see me peeking at her. I was on a seat somewhere else.

"I want you to feel the emptiness that I feel..."

Harumi's words were looping in my head as I sigh. What if I already felt it?

"Not everyone is happy." Pixal says. I slowly get up and push myself over to Lloyd. I grab a drink from Darreth, and sit down next to Lloyd quietly.

"...hi.." I start to say, taking a small sip of the boba. I catch eye contact with Misako, who smiles at me.

"Hey.." Lloyd responds, turning away from me.

"Can I...show you something?" I take Lloyd's hand after he nods and drag him to another room. Luckily, the others didn't notice, so they wouldn't go crazy when they find out I held his hand.

Lloyd sits down as I shut the door. "So...what did you want to talk about?"

"Harumi."

"What do you mean?" He turns his head towards me cutely. Y/N, this isn't the time to think about your enormous crush on Lloyd that you avoided because of Harumi! Just..breath.

I slowly exhale. "Don't tell anyone about this conversation. Promise?"

"Promise."

I sit down next to him and start breaking down. "It's all my fault..!"

My hands were covering my face, elbows touching my knees, as Lloyd softly rubs my back.

"Whatever you did, it wasn't your fault. And I know it." He whispered.

"How do you know? I killed my own parents..! They crashed because of me.." I sob, now my arms wrapped around my legs and head buried in my knees. Lloyd continued soothing me.

"Why do you think it's your fault? Don't put the burden on your own shoulders, it'll only make things worse." Lloyd says.

"But...I..."

"No but's." Lloyd said a bit sternly. "It wasn't your fault. Your parents loved you before they died, and that's what matters."

I exhale, my head slowly goes up and I wipe my tears. "You're right. I thought I was the one that was going to comfort you though."
