My Fault

(Bruno's pov)

I was sitting in the kitchen, drinking some water after a long afternoon in my vision cave.

I had a few visions I had to do for customers and decided to do them while Y/n was in town with Julieta. My gorgeous wife constantly worries about me when I have visions. She's the only one to understand how they can affect me.

These visions weren't too bad, though. They were all positive, which was strange.

That's never happened before. I typically have at least one bad vision when I have to do more than two...

I stood up as I suddenly felt the building pressure in my head, an involuntary vision was coming on.

I rushed frantically to my sandy room, just in time. The sand was swirling around me, before I even had the chance to sit down. Images began to form right in front of me.

An outraged man stalking through the streets of Encanto. Julieta and Y/n passing out food to injured villagers. The man yelling furiously while raising a gun. Y/n laying in Julieta's arms, bleeding heavily from her chest. Someone working to extract the bullet.

The vision plate landed softly in my anxious hands as the sand fell and the winds calmed.

The vision plate showed Y/n in my arms, tears flowing down my eyes. Julieta is crying silently behind me.

I look at the clothing Y/n is wearing, and realize it's the dress she was wearing when she left.

This is about to happen, and I rush out of my tower. I run as fast as my feet will allow, hoping to reach my beloved wife in time.

I'm halfway to the town square when I hear screams. I push myself harder, before the sound of a gunshot rings through the air.

I continue to run, but it's too late. Pepa meets me as we skid to a stop at the scene.

I pull Y/n out of my sister's grasp, clutching her to me. I beg her to stay, even though I know that she can't hear me.

I failed to protect her, and now we will never get the chance to fulfill our dreams. I won't be able to hear her musical voice again. I won't feel her loving embrace, or her soft lips on mine. We would never get to start the family we had talked about. I won't ever get to lie in bed with her or wake up to her smile.

I will be all alone, forever. I could never love another person like I loved her.

"Julieta... What, what happened?" I asked, my voice trembling.

"That man came over, yelling about how you had a vision of his wife dying, and she died. Saying that you killed his wife with your vision, so he was going to do the same. He wanted you to feel what he did, so he killed Y/n."

It was my fault? My visions are the reason my beautiful Y/n was dead?

I really am bad luck. My power truly is a curse.

I pulled my wife's body closer and screamed my anguish to the world.

I'm startled suddenly, as I feel someone shaking me. I jolt upright, breathing heavily.

I notice the sudden darkness and frantically look around. Calming slightly as I realize that it was just a dream. I jump when I feel a warm hand on my back.

I turn to see Y/n, gazing at me worriedly. I pulled her into my arms suddenly, tears falling from my eyes. I take in the sound of her heartbeat, allowing the sound to calm me further.

"Was it a nightmare, mi amor?" She asked, rubbing my back as she hugged me. I nodded, telling her about the dream. She lifted my head from her chest, giving me a gentle smile.

"I'm not going anywhere mi corazon."

"It felt so real, though. The vision could really happen, and that terrifies me."

"Shh...it was just a bad dream. Just a dream okay? None of it was real."

She laid back down, bringing me with her. Laying my head on her chest again, she pulled our blankets back up from where they fell.

She started singing softly, and I smiled sleepily, closing my eyes.

I cuddled into the love of my life, allowing her heartbeat and her voice to lull me back to sleep.

"Sleep well, amor. I will still be here when you wake up."
