pov: a wishing well

a/n: you asked to continue and i will

------

"how am i suppose to let you go? when you were the one who stopped all my wounds from bleeding, my love" lesso softly spoke as she sat beside your grave while brushing her fingers across the engagement ring on her finger. She sighed, "i miss you, y/n. why did you have to leave me?" she let the tears fall.

She wiped it off, "you know..." she tried to talk to you, "f/n is such a bitch. she had the audacity to think she could treat me better than you. you may be gone but i'm forever yours"

She said her goodbye before rising up and walking back towards her room. As soon as she reached, she dropped into her bed with her back facing it. She couldn't bother to take off her clothes. She was about to just fall asleep when she heard a knock on the door.

She groaned as she stood up. "what do you want?!" she said in annoyance as she opened the door, to reveal clarissa. "what do you want, Clarissa?"

"I'm here to check up on you"

"for what?" lesso raised an eyebrow.

"I saw you at y/n's grave earlier. I know how much you're hurting. You're hurting more than us. Is there anything that I can do to help?"

"if you can bring y/n back to life, which I don't think you can, then no, there's nothing you can do" Lesso spoke so fast.

"what if i told you there was actually a way?"

"what do you mean there is a way. no magic in this world can bring back the dead" lesso was getting more annoyed at this point. it was as if she was about to explode like a grenade.

"but it's risky" Clarissa gave an unsure look.

"if its risky, why are you telling me this?"

"seeing how you're hurt, and knowing you, you probably would do it..."

Lesso's eyes looked down as she thought about it for a second before looking back at clarissa, "tell me" Lesso wasn't thinking straight. She just wanted to hold you back into her arms.

"follow me"

As Lesso followed Clarissa, "this is unusual of you to do this. doing something you shouldn't be doing"

"to be honest, if she wasn't yours, i would have done it. i want my friend back" Clarissa explained but lesso didn't bother to react as she continued following her.

As they reached to where clarissa wanted to bring her, "a well?" lesso furrowed her eyebrows.

"this is the wishing well. it was locked away for centuries due to an incident"

"what incident?"

"someone wished for something and it turned out really bad. you can't undo what you've wished for. some say it's a blessing, some say its a curse.   i guess it really depends on what you wish for"

"have you tried wishing for anything?"

"no, im afraid. i dont want to risk anything"

"and you think I would?"

"I dont know, you're a Never. You Nevers are always so reckless"

"oh wow" Lesso said sarcastically and yet so offended. Lesso looked back at the well as she thought, "is this really worth it? should i just go for it?"

"ugh, fuck it" she thought to herself. she look at clarissa, "what am I suppose to do?"

"throw a coin and wish for something"
