Dragon Flame connection (Bloom x Valtor)

Together at last

It's been ten years since Bloom and the Winx fought for Valtor's freedom from the Omega dimension—ten years since he served his sentence in the Fortress of Light. Bloom ensured she would keep in contact with Valtor, but unfortunately, she only got to visit him once a year. Even then, it was a hard battle to see him since no one was supposed to get visitors there.

Valtor helped Bloom out so much even while he was locked away. He gave tips and advice on how to defeat the wizards of the black circle and other foes Bloom and the Winx had to face.

Now, Bloom's standing anxiously outside the courthouse of the supreme fairies and wizards, waiting for Valtor to be released.

"I don't think I've ever seen you so nervous Bloom and we've had to fight a lot of scary creatures." Stella chuckles, placing a comforting hand on Bloom's shoulder.

The fire fairy turns to look at her long term best friend, the princess of Solaria. The other Winx, unfortunately, couldn't make it because they're all busy and Valtor finally being released came out of the blue. Stella was the only one who could drop everything and be by Bloom's side.

"Thanks for being her Stel. I can't imagine being her alone. I think I'd explode into fairy dust from anxiety. I can't believe he's finally being let out. We can finally be together." Bloom's voice cracks as tears well in her eyes.

"Hey, no water works! This is supposed to be a happy event. Do you think your precious Valtor will be happy to see you cry Bloom?" Stella chuckles, taking a handkerchief out and handing it to her friend.

"Haha, I suppose you're right Stella."

"When am I ever wrong." Stella proclaims proudly, turning her nose upwards. Before Bloom can reply Stella quickly whips her head to look back her friend, sticking her index finger into Blooms face. "And don't answer that. It was a rhetorical statement."

"HAHAHA! Thanks Stella, you really know how to cheer me up." Bloom giggles at Stella's antics before embracing her golden haired friend.

"I know, I'm the best." Stella states before retuning Bloom's hug. "Now, Valtor should be released any second now so I'll give you two some privacy. Then I should be allowed to meet him properly without it being a life or death kind of situation. I need to get to know the man who has my bestie here completely smitten." 

Bloom doesn't get the chance to ask Stella to stay since the moment she starts walking away a bright light starts to form as a portal opens next to the courthouse.

Bloom can feel her nerves return at full force, her hearts beating faster than her wings can flap at full speed.

Valtor steps out with two guards, he's smiling and looking directly at Bloom the moment he steps through.

"Alright mister Valtor. You've finished serving your time here at the Fortress of light. You're now a model citizen and can be let back into society. Don't make us regret letting you leave earlier than  you should have." The head guard states, unlocking the handcuffs and letting Valtor go.

The two men then walk back into the portal and the bight light closes.

"Hey." Bloom breathes out those words under her breath, unsure of what to say. Right now she feels utterly tongue tied.

"My dear firefly, it feels like forever since I last got to lay my eyes on such beauty." Valtor says, taking a step towards Bloom and gently caressing her face with his gloved hand.

Bloom feels a blush creep up on her face at his smooth talking as she smiles up at him. She wants nothing more then to jump at him and kiss him on his lips but he suddenly takes a step back from her, leaving her confused.

"I know what you were expecting but that isn't going to happen yet my princess. I want to have the chance to court your properly. I want to win your heart all over again in a more traditional manner." Valtor says grabbing Bloom's hand and lifting it to his face, he then presses a gentle kiss to her knuckles while maintaining eye contact. "Would you make this wizard the happiest man in the world and go on a date with him?"

Bloom can't help but chuckle at Valtor being cute like this. She never expected this from him but couldn't be happier with his approach to their relationship.

"I would love to go on a date with you Valtor but Stella wanted to get to meet you first and-"

"Oh come on Bloom! Of course you should say yes! I can get to know him later." Stella scoffs from an unknown location.

Bloom looks around the area but doesn't see her blonde energetic friend until she looks up.

"Hey." Stella waves, looking down from the roof of the courthouse in her fairy form.

"Stella, were you spying on us?" Bloom questions, placing her hands on her hips.

"Duh." Stella replies as if that's the normal course of action.

Bloom can't help the chuckle that slips by her lips as she shakes her head at her friend.

Oh what am I going to do with her. Bloom thinks to herself, mentally facepalming.

"Go have fun on your date, we'll catch up with the other Winx. Cya." Stella says, blowing a kiss before flying away.

"You're friends truly are something else." Valtor states, watching Stella fly away before directing his attention back to Bloom.

"Yeah, but they're the best friends I could ever ask for. Just like how you're the best guy I could ever ask for. Let's go on that date." Bloom can't help the smile forming on her face, she feels on cloud nine to finally be reunited with her other flame.

"Shall we get going on our date then?" Valtor asks, extending his hand to the dragon fire fairy.

"We shall." Bloom replies, intertwining her fingers with Valtor, not to her surprise his hands are the perfect fit around her own.

"Before that, may I steal a kiss from you, princess?"

"Of course." Bloom 

Bloom takes a step towards the dark wizard and stands on her toes. Valtor snakes his hand around Bloom's waist and pulls her closer to him, leaning down to her height.

Valtor gently pressed his lips against Bloom's with the gentleness one would expect from someone cleaning the finest crystals. His warm mouth softly pushes against Bloom's, like an experienced dancer guiding Bloom in a slow waltz.

Bloom wraps her arms around Valtor's neck, pulling him closer to her. She's lost in the sweet embrace of his mouth on hers, lost in his scent and touch. All she wants is for this moment to last forever. Finally, all of her hard work and patience is bearing fruit.

 The two break apart as Bloom gazes into Valtor's slender eyes.

"Let's get going on our date princess." Valtor states, lacing his fingers with Bloom's as he starts walking.

Bloom doesn't respond, instead choosing to follow him in silence as they walk wherever their hears choose to take them.

The End
