Turbulent Magma

Chapter 21: The End, as well as the Beginning

(Maxie's POV)

I sat there, holding Winona tight, afraid of what Wallace might do.

He walked over to us, and gently took Winona from to me. "Winona, what are you doing?"

She blushed. "W-Wallace... I can explain!"

He sighed. "Please, just answer me."

I saw tears come to her eyes. "Wallace... Do... Do you promise to hear me out?"

He nodded, wiping the tears from her eyes. "Of course, Winona. I always promise to hear you out."

She sniffed. "Y-you see, I... I still like Maxie, and he does too... And we..."

Wallace brushed some hair from her face, keeping his tone calm. "Winona... You know I only want what's best for you, but this is different."

Winona sniffed, and looked over at me.

"Winona, you do what you think is best. Stay with Wallace if you think that's the best. But if you do, we can still be friends."

Wallace sighed. "Winona, if you don't want to be with me anymore, I understand. The truth is, I... I too think I've found someone else."

She sniffed. "Wh-who?"

He sighed and stroked her hair. "A lovely Lucario Pokéhuman by the name of Lauren."

(Time skip about an hour)

Wallace had left, and we somehow peacefully agreed that we were done.

I was on the couch, shuffling Maxie. I kissed his cheek. "I love you so much, Maxie."

He smiled, and kissed me back. "I love you too, Winona."

(A/N: This is the end of Turbulent Magma! I am making a sequel to this. It will be called Magma Catching Fire)
