Ten years later💗
Jenna's P.O.V
'Ella! Come here sweetie! Who's a good girl! You are! That's right monkey. Ok, let's plop you in this bath. It's like the sea! You're secret part of the sea! Shhhh! Don't tell anyone else!' My daughter Ella grinned as I chased her down the hallway, and she ended up in a big bear hug.
It had been ten years since I had been in the coma, and they were certainly the best years of my life. After 3 years of procedures, a year ago we finally adopted Ella, the most beautiful, brilliant and utterly stunning toddler. It had been long, but I would have gone through it a hundred times to get my baby. Being a mum was the best thing that ever happened to me. A child is learning their personality through what you tell them! I am shaping a life and I couldn't be prouder of how it's turning out.
'Sweetie, I'll handle it' I heard a voice from the doorway. There stood the best human that life could offer. The beautiful, fantastic, smart, sassy, funny and gosh I could go for years! It was the very own Billie Eilish. My wife. I cannot begin to express my love towards Billie, so I'll save you the monologue and get on. Me and Billie got married straight after I turned 23. Although everyone said we didn't know what we needed, and we were only high school lovers, we made our way through it. We got married in a little chapel next to the coast. As the sun set, we exchanged vows that I hope to never break. Then we adopted Ella, and the final piece of the puzzle clicked into place. I was a fashion designer; my dream job, and Billie has become famous thanks to her songs. We were living in a dream, permanently on cloud 9.
As I tucked Ella into bed, me and Billie took turns kissing her forehead and then headed to our room. Billie lay down on our bed, and gestured for me to join her. Pushing her hair out of her eyes, I felt Billie's firm hands on my back, and we stayed there for a while. I finally spoke up, 'I love you Bil,'
Billie's P.O.V
Putting my finger against her lips, I muttered, 'I love you more than you can say. Every time I look at you, it's like looking at paradise itself. You never will understand how much I adore, look up to and am proud of you. Jenna, you will always be my forever.'
Closing her eyes, Jenna softly placed her lips on mine, and continued to gently slide her hand across my cheek. I loved this girl more than the world. As long as we had each other, we could get through everything. Slowly, I pulled my lips from her's and said 'I wrote you a song,' Seeing her eyes light up in joy, I picked up my guitar and started to sing.
I wanna be alone
Alone with you - does that make sense?
I wanna steal your soul
And hide you in my treasure chest
I don't know what to do
To do with your kiss on my neck
I don't know what feels true
But this feels right so stay a sec
Yeah, you feel right so stay a sec
And let me crawl inside your veins
I'll build a wall, give you a ball and chain
It's not like me to be so mean
You're all I wanted
Just let me hold you
Like a hostage
Gold on your fingertips
Fingertips against my cheek
Gold leaf across your lips
Kiss me until I can't speak
Gold chain beneath your shirt
The shirt that you let me wear home
Gold's fake and real love hurts
And nothing hurts when I'm alone
When you're with me and we're alone
And let me crawl inside your veins
I'll build a wall, give you a ball and chain
It's not like me to be so mean
You're all I wanted
Just let me hold you
Hold you
Like a hostage
Like a hostage
Jenna's P.O.V
By the time Billie had finished, we were both in tears, and rocking each other in our arms. Suddenly, I heard the twist of a door handle and Ella stood outside our room.
'Mummy? Are you ok?' She questioned. In answer to that, I got up and carried her to our embrace. We all lay there in silence, our love filling up the space words would not go. In the end, I couldn't tell who's legs and arms were who's. It was a mess. A beautiful mess.
The end.
