Her head hurt,everything felt out of wack.

"Powder." A familiar voice called soothing the pain and bringing her world to focus.

She turned to the voice and there was the smiling face of her lover y/n.

The sweet smell of vanilla with a tinge of honey wafted into her nose.

"Everything alright?" He looked at her with worry.

Her voice caught in her throat,her hands shook,tears began to run down her face.

She jumped into his arms and began to wail with emotion so visceral her throat hurt.

She tried her hardest to form words to speak but nothing but a broken sob would come out.

Powder placed her hands on his cheeks and rubbed them lovingly as she stared at that worried face.

Those eyes that only ever showed her the deepest of love.

Y/n pulled her into an embrace and lifted her up.

She hadn't realized it but they were at the last drop surrounded by family and friends.

He apologized for her and let vander know he'd be by later to check in as the man had a disturbed  look on his face.

Y/n walked her home in his arms the woman had yet to stop sobbing.

Even when they walked in and he'd sat on the bed she clung to him her crying finally reduced to sniffing and erratic huffs of breath.

Y/n ran a hand through her shoulder length hair and kissed her forehead. "Talk to me." He punctuated his words by holding her tighter to his chest.

Powder who finally had enough breath to talk let it all out,her voice hoarse and shaky. "It's been so hard..." she said softly fighting back tears.

"I-I thought you were dead for two years,worst point in my life by the way. She tried to force a laugh "i couldn't eat or sleep properly I didn't even have the energy to even get up and wash my own ass." Her voice was becoming wobbly.

She talked in a low tone this particular subject cutting deep "I-i lost our..." she let the sentence die unable to finish it.

She started again slowly "Then I found out you were alive and I did everything I could,everything to find you." Her voice was slowly becoming more unsteady.

"And now I just...I just don't know what to do,I need you here...so bad." Her cries started up again.

He rubbed her back "it's okay to feel lost even I was countless times." He made her look up at him wiping the tears from her cheeks.

"I'm nothing special but you are." He kissed her cheek affectionately.

"If I could do it then you can do it a hundred times better."

The way he said it so full of confidence,without even a shred of doubt in her made her heart thump.

But she still doubted herself.

Could she really save him?,how would she get home?,where did she even start?,she had no plan whatsoever.

Y/n again kissed her.

"Tu Omnia." After he said that she held him as tight as she could taking in as much of his warmth as possible she knew this was the end.

"I'll find you,I promise." She choked out

Y/n chuckled as his body slowly faded from her grasp. "I know you will."

His disembodied voice rang out around her as he completely disappeared from her grasp leaving behind only beautiful purple particles."Time to wake up now my love."
