Jax's queen

Here we go. Finally, after so many days (like, 3) I have updated. Enjoy!

Jax and I are walking down the hallway when a thought pops up in my mind.

"Hey Jax," I start. He turns towards me.

"What's up?" He asks.

"So, like, I read your homework," I tell him, "like, after you disappeared during the war, and it said at the end that you had a queen in mind. Who was that queen?" He stares at me.

"Uh, um, I uh, have to go do something," he stammers. Then, he runs off. I'm so confused. Did I say something? Wait, is he mad at me?

"There we go again," I mutter to myself, "messing things up as usual." I shake my head, and walk towards my next class.

-----Time skip (of like 2 days)-----

I sigh as I head back to my dorm. I have time before my next class, which sadly, gives me time to think. Jax has been ignoring me for 2 days. I've totally screwed things up, I just know it. But what am I to do? It could've been anything I said that day or before that or all week! I can't with myself sometimes. 

I reach my dorm and push open the door. I immediately go to my desk and start writing with the secret message pen we all got last semester.

Dear Jax,

I'm really sorry about whatever I did to make you mad. I really didn't mean to do it. Please talk to me. I can't even put it in words how much I'm sorry. It hurts not to talk to you, and I miss you. I don't know what I did, but I hope you don't hate me forever. I hope you'll forgive me.

Love,

Gilly

I sigh and put down the pen. Now next time Jax uses his, he'll see the message. If he ever uses it at all. If only life was simpler and you knew when you screwed up big time. I walk towards history class and hope that Jax will be there. At history class, I wave at Maxine and Kayla, since they slept over at AG's pop-up castle last night. I finish saying hi all my friends- except for Jax because he isn't there- just as Professor Sebastian walks in.

"Good morning Class," he greets us.

"Good morning," we all reply unanimously. By the end of class, I'm really worried. Where is Jax? He's never late to class, much less skips it. As soon as we're done, I burst through the door towards Jax's dorm. I need to know if he's sick or something.

"Jax?" I call through the door when I get there. I hear a thud, followed by a, "Come in." I walk in to find Jax trying to lift a suitcase onto his bed.

"Where are you going?" I ask him.

"Royal Manor," he replies, still trying to lift up the suitcase. I help him put it on his bed, then turn to him.

"Have you used your secret message pen today?" I inquire. He shakes his head. I stand there for a few more seconds, and Jax shifts his weight from one foot to another.

"Well," he says finally, "Do you wanna maybe leave now?"

Jax's P.O.V.

I know as soon as it's out of my mouth that it was the wrong thing to say. Gilly looks hurt.

"Yeah," she mumbles turning around, "I'll just leave now." Grimm, I'm so stupid. Honestly, I could've said anything else. But I said that sentence at the wrong place at the wrong time. It's such a mean thing to say, considering the fact that I haven't spoken to her in 2 days. I just can't face her, for the fear that she might ask me again. I think back to what she said, and realize that she mentioned our SMP's (secret message pens). I quickly find a piece of paper and start writing. The message appears.

Dear Jax,

I'm really sorry about whatever I did to make you mad. I really didn't mean to do it. Please talk to me. I can't even put it in words how much I'm sorry. It hurts not to talk to you, and I miss you. I don't know what I did, but I hope you don't hate me forever. I hope you'll forgive me.

Love,

Gilly

I feel horrible. I've made her think that it's her fault I'm not talking to her, even though it's my idiot of a self's fault. I have to go find her. I get up, and walk to the only place I can think of her going.

Gilly's P.O.V.

Father used to say that self-pity was a weakness. But I can't help it right now. Jax hates me and there's nothing I can do about it. It's all my fault. Ugh, what is wrong with me?

Gilly, Gilly, Gilly. Pathetic as always.

Shut up, mind. I'm not pathetic

Really. Because right now, you're sitting in a garden by yourself, moping about your friend hating you. Get a life.

I shake my head, and the thoughts disappear. Suddenly, I hear footsteps behind me.

"Gilly, I'm so sorry," I hear a familiar voice say. I stand up, and the source wraps its arms around me. I turn around, a bit confused.

"Jax? I thought you were mad at me," I whisper into his ear

"I could never be mad at you Gilly," he whispers back, still hugging me. I hug him back, and all my worries melt away.

"I'm sorry," he tells me again, "the thing is, after you asked me who my queen was, I got a bit embarrassed and then I left and I felt really bad but I couldn't bring myself to say sorry and I just couldn't tell you because it is you and oh my goblins I just told you and I-" I cut him off with a kiss.

Jax's P.O.V.

I rant on and on until Gilly kisses me. It's the sweetest thing ever. I pull her face closer, kissing her back. She deepens it and I put my arms around her waist. Too soon, we pull away.

"So," I hesitate, "you're my queen, to answer your question." She laughs her beautiful laugh.

"I figured," She smiles. Gilly is my queen, and she always will be. I'm glad of that.

I guess I'll just need is a girlfriend.

And maybe, just maybe, I already have one in mind.

Y'all I needed to go back to the last book to find the exact line so I could replicate it. Anyway, I hope you guys enjoyed this story.

Byeeeee! <3
