my father's sidekick..(henry hart x fem oc)

the girl i once loved.

+henry's pov+

she stands before me, locking eyes with me.

"willow, this isn't you."

she picks me up with her telekinesis.

"I AM NOT WILLOW!" she screams, her voice now a low growl.

"yes you are, your name is willow manchester, you're a superhero." i say, determined to save her.

her eyes turn from her usual beautiful green to a deep blue. "I AM NOT A FUCKING SUPERHERO" her voice is unrecognisable.

the girl i once loved was holding me in the air, crushing my bones.

"please rose." i say

her eyes go back to their usual colour and she drops me, she falls backwards for a second, almost snapping out of her trance.

i reach for the book that's on the floor.

before i can grab it, she fires bolts at me, knocking me backwards.

she pulls her hands to her side and lifts into the air, the two houses beside us lift off the ground.

with a flick of her wrist, the houses and the people in them are crushed.

"come on, we're hitting swellview bank." she says, then a black smokey cloud forms and she's gone.

but what she doesn't know is, she left the book.

+

after robbing swellview bank, we destroyed the mayor's house, then we stole 2 cars, then we stole the identities of two swellview citizens.

"minyak is a pussy." rick says.

"true." minyak had backed out after i set those houses on fire.

"i like you better this way." rick says.

"me too." my hair fades to blue and
my recently short hair becomes long again.

+

i'm once again faced with henry.

"this is it willow, i need you back." he says.

he tears out the pages of the book, releasing me of this curse.

as i stand, realisation hits.

"what have i done.." i drop to my knees and sob.

+ henry's pov +

as me and ray comfort her, we realise rick is still stood by us.

he pulls out a dagger and walks towards willow.

"traitor." he says before plunging the knife into her stomach.

a soft gasp escapes her mouth as she falls, now laying on her back, deep red blood spilling from her mouth and stomach.

ray beats rick nearly half to death as i hold her hand, telling her it's all going to be ok.

it's not.

i can see the light fading from her deep green eyes as tears fall down her face.

"henry i don't wanna go." she says, blood sputtering from her mouth to my face.

"you're gonna be ok rose."

"i love you." she says

ray joins me at her side, stroking her beautiful hair and sobbing profusely.

"dad?" she gasps

"shh willow, it's gonna be okay."

she nods in agreement and her eyes flutter shut, her head dropping.

ray picks up her lifeless body, tears still flowing and carries he back to the man cave.

+
as i step into her room, her scent hits me.

i drop to the floor, kicking and screaming.

my hands and face are still covered in her blood.

i gather strength and sit in the shower, cold water washing away all that was left of her.

i slip into her bed, my tears drip on her pillow, where her head once rested.

she always slept on the right side.
the lights had to be on.
her phone had to be charging.
she had to kiss me goodnight.
she had to have her clothes for the next day lay out.
her scars had to be covered.
she had to talk whilst falling asleep.

for a moment i thought i saw her, laying there. but no.

she's not been gone long, but i miss her.

i miss her smile
her laugh
the way she slept
her hair
her eyes
her personality
her interest in animals

now when i think of her hair, i think of the blood that covered it

now when i think of her eyes, i think of the light leaving them

now when i think of the way she slept, i see her lifeless body

now when i think of her interest in animals, i see her puppy, waiting for her at the door.

now when i think about her personality, i think of the moment before i lost her.
