This GL (girl love) fanfic is a story continuation of a korean drama The King's Affection. I was saddened by the ending of this show because I wanted our beloved precious queen to have an happy ending. And I wanted to bend the story in a way I could...
My vision is blurred out, has everything that happened.. is it a bad dream, I like to wake up now. This place is too scary for me to stay. "Jeon-ha.." my feeble voice echoed on to me as I see my dearest king holding my hand half dozed out sitting right next to me. "my queen, you're awake" a concerned voice and caring eyes looking back at me. "I'm okay, I feel better" I get up to sit but my body doesn't support my decision well. She kindly helped me sit up, there's no one in the room, it's just us.. i don't know what has happened or what's real and what's not anymore..
She hugged me to lay my head on her chest, her hug is so sincere and her body feels like home "I now know what queen mother has said is true" the signs where always there, I thought that was a dream, i can stay in her warmth "I was happy to be just near you as your wife and for a while it felt good that you are mine but deep down..., ... deep down I always knew you never belonged to me, maybe this is another brutal reminder" I couldn't hold back, I cried as my tears came out without a fight. She hugged me again, this time, with more compassion and love "I'm yours" Just two words from her flaring my emotions through the roof once again.
POV: King Hwi
Why did I say that, well, it's not something I want to blur out but saying that now seem disingenuous. Do i even mean it.. I think i do.. I can't see the queen suffer any longer for me but why this keep happening. I truly wish either my cousin or the tutor here so I can have some focus to make sense of it all. "Jeon-ha, you don't have to say anything to comfort me that you don't mean it, as queen mother said, we have to be mature about this, I'm ready to play any part" my queen, her voice is so stern, very mature like when she refused to confront me about my relationship with the tutor for the first time but always ready to do anything that's necessary for me. I'm unable to say with conviction again that i'm hers. How can i prove it to her when all i gave her is pain.
The court lady & eunuch Hong enters "my king, the guard and your cousin has safely arrived at the palace and need your presence" perfect timing how can i leave my queen like this then a gentle feeble voice creeks through. "i'm better now, you may go my king. that is important" her sweet voice making another sacrifice for me like always. "i will be back as soon as i can my queen" leaving her was painful.

Seeing her cousin and the guard made hwi very happy "i'm glad you made it alive cousin" she gives him big warm hug which he still seems to be weak to entertain. "have a seat, i'm really thankful for you" she looked at her personal guard who's still standing a far. her cousin opens up "i'm sorry I'm unable to help find the tutor after our separation my king" He says abruptly thinking king hwi still in love with him, well, even if the love changes she still cares about him, specially now. "you don't have to worry that now cousin, rest well and get your health upto speed because i have many things i need to share with you" he smiles and leaves along with the personal guard. He leaned on to him as they walked away.
Queens Chamber:

The second day followed with the same distance from the queen but today king hwi cannot take it anymore. she ordered the servants to remove the other bed. When the queen retaliates she held her just like their first meet "it's true i know how to keep my composure but I'm going through so many emotion right-now, I want my wife, my companion to be there with me like you have always done." she moves both her hands to pull her in closer "right now I'm missing you, terribly, I'm pregnant and i don't know who to turn to, I'm still ignoring queen mothers request to visit her, I'm unable to focus with everyone seems to..." she stops and looks at her queen "from the moment you entered my life, you have always been the constant, please don't change now" king hwi pours her heart into it.
Queen ha kyung hugs her back unexpectedly, maybe it's this vulnerability she's looking for all along from her king? or maybe this open and longing from her king is what she craved for, maybe it's that her jeon-ha finally wanted her, no, chose her to be the support system. "my father was elated when he heard the news, he sent me everything I could think of for a pregnant woman, looking at all that i wanted to share them with you, be happy for you, tell you how joyful i'm that finally you could have an heir to the thrown" she moves away to look at the queens face with love "from you... which makes it legitimate than the one that could come from me" she tears up a little.
"Don't wash your hands off me my queen, you can't go away that easy... i'm terrified.. I don't think i can do this without you. after this two days of separation i don't think i want to do this without you" even with those words, she wipes her queens tears. "what happens to us when the tutor arrives" the queen was straightforward and asked something she bottled up for so long. "separation from you for this two days seemed insane enough.. I don't think I have it in me to bond with your child then to be separated later. I love you, I could've stayed away from you and lived happy but now i don't think i can survive being away from you or your child. it's better to stay away from the beginning" her tears fall again, it's only been few days and queen has fallen for the child just as hard as for her king.
".....you're the one who's here now" a direct voice came over from king hwi, "I always have love for the tutor, I will not deny that but everything i'm going through right now is with you, no matter what the future holds you will always be a part of this child, a part of me... .. even if you and i deny it, history has already been written, you're with my child, this child, that cannot be changed" King hwi was rewarded with another hug for everything right she's saying today.
Now they both have to face the queen mother.
