An Ageless Love (Maui x Tamatoa Fanfic)

Breaking Her Heart

Breaking Her Heart

Chapter 2

Maui's POV

Five days later...

  I've done more thinking these past few days than I have in my three thousand years of life, but finally I've come to a conclusion... or in other words... the truth. I love Moana but I'm no longer in love with her. I don't know what or why my feelings for her have disappeared. I care about Moana so much and I know she's going to hate me after I break her heart. I'm going to lose my best friend... 

   I wander around Montonui trying to find Moana. Of all places, I find her gardening by her parents' hut. I stand over her and silently watch how she effortless plants flower after flower. When she's done, I make myself known by clearing my throat. Moana jumps slightly but relaxes when she sees that it's just me. "Oh hey Maui, you startled me." I laugh nervously. "Sorry Moana. I know you're busy gardening but do you think you could take a break for a bit?" Moana's face lights up causing the pit in my stomach to become even larger. The poor girl doesn't even know the half of what I'm about to tell her. "I'd love a break. I've been gardening around different huts for several hours." I nod and lead her down to the shore. I'd normally take her to that cave she loves, but I don't want to tarnish that for her. I figured that the shore is private but at the same time doesn't hold too much significance to be tarnished. 

   Moana stands close to me and I gently push her away. "Moana, you're going to want to sit for this." She gives me a questioning look but does as I say. "Moana... for a couple of months I've been really out of it mentally as I'm sure that you're aware of." She nods hesitantly. I take a shaky breath and continue. "Well the truth is..." I hang my head down in shame. "The truth is I've fallen out of love with you... I'm so sorry Moana." I can hear the evident cracking of Moana's voice. "W-what do you mean y-you've fallen out of love with me?" I try to get myself to look at Moana but I just can't. "I've just lost feelings Moana. It happens sometimes." Moana uses two fingers to cup my face and get me to look at her. When my eyes met hers, I'm face to face with pure heartbreak and sadness. Tears streak her pretty face and my heart crumbles. 

   This is all my fault, I did this to her. She bursts into tears and me being the idiot that I am, I don't even bother to hold her as she cries. I simply sit next to her until she lets it all out. 

An hour later...

  Moana is all cried out for the looks of it so I feel confident enough to move closer to her. "Moana... please don't cry anymore. It breaks my heart and makes me sad to see you in so much pain." She looks at me with pure disgust and I mentally slap myself. How can I be so stupid and say such a thing? I just broke her heart and ended our one year relationship and probably our friendship as well. Moana moves closer to me, raises her hand, and slaps me right across the face. Normally I'd flip shit at the person for doing so, but I deserve it. Plus, if it makes Moana feel better, by all means let her slap the hell out of me. 

   Moana slaps me a few more times before putting hands down to her sides. I put a hand to my cheek and immediately feel a painful burning sensation. That's going to leave a mark. "Hey Maui?" A lump forms in my throat. "Y-yes Moana?" She looks at me stone cold. I've never seen Moana give an icy stare before. I swear if looks could kill, hers right now definitely would kill me. "I hate you. With ever cell in my body, I truly hate you Maui. I regret you coming to my life and ruining me. I also wish I had never fallen in love with you. You're a monster." 

    Moana storms off leaving me absolutely stunned and devastated. For the first time in ages, I crumple to the ground in a ball and cry.
