Forget Me, Sinbad [Magi: Sinbad x Reader]

Found

Ducking and weaving through the jungle, you managed to keep up a good pace despite your fatigue. The adrenaline in your body wasn't letting you down in that instant, and both Alibaba and Morgiana had noticed; they had a hell of a time keeping up with your pace at first, afterall.

You hesitated, nearly stumbling over a hidden root on the forest floor. Luckily Alibaba was at your side to catch you from falling forward. You couldn't hide the agony you were feeling, for the pain killer concoction Yamraiha gave you didn't work when you purposefully strained yourself, you found out.

"You sure you want to keep going?" Alibaba asked hesitantly.

"Yes!" you blurted through gritted teeth, wincing as you spoke.

"Alright then," Alibaba treated you as if you were his new Captain, following your direct order the best he could. You put an arm up on his shoulder, aiding your movability.

Morgiana made her way to your other side for your other arm to have something to prop on as well. The three of you call out Zarah's name, hoping she would listen eventually and come running to your safety, so that you can go back to the beach and rest.

Sinbad was getting bored on that Magic Carpet. Aladdin and Zarah were just talking and talking for what felt like eons— but it was closer to 20 minutes.

"What's a Magi?" Zarah asked, blinking her eyes innocently.

It was another question: Children absolutely love tirlessly asking questions, often hardly acknowledging follow ups to questions they just previously asked. Sinbad sighed as he hid his face in his palm.

"That's a great question, let me explain-" Aladdin was suddenly cut of as Sinbad touched his arm.

"Do you hear that?" Sinbad spoke in a hush, letting the other two listen as well. As Sinbad's ears were perked, he felt his heart skip a beat when he realized what it was "Y/N?"

Sure enough, all three of you heard Zarah's name being called from down below.

Zarah's eyes lit up "Y/N!" and she quickly snuck around the carpet and vined her way down the tree.

On the ground, she saw you, only to stop in her tracks when she noticed the two people holding you at your sides. Tears began to form in her eyes as she looked on at your limp figure being carried over the underbrush.

"Y/N!" Zarah rushed to you, growing two small trees at your sides that'd hold you up instead, pushing Alibaba and Morgiana away in the process.

Zarah hugs your waist, hiding her face in your clothes "Everyone go away and leave her alone!"

"Zarah, please," you winced "you're hugging too tight".

Zarah's eyes widened and she wuickly let go, stepping back. She looked up at you, noting gour tired eyes.

"I-I'm sorry...," Zarah murmered apologetically.

"Are you okay?" You asked with a strain to your voice "You're not overwhelmed or scared, are you?"

Zarah shook her head.

Aladdin and Sinbad soon swooped down from above, leaping from the carpet and planting their feet firmly on the ground infront of you. As Sinbad got a closer look at you, his face went completely pale.

Aladdin, seeing the look on Sinbad's face, along with your condition, approached Zarah before anyone else made a move first.

"Zarah, would it be alright if we help Y/N back to the beach? We promise that she will be safe in our hands," Aladdin asked, putting his most ernest and soothing voice on.

Zarah didn't respond, and she pushed past Aladdin and hugged you gently, sobbing into you once more.

Sinbad couldn't help but step towards you as well. He had just felt his heart break when he first saw you in the state you were in.

Zarah didn't miss his movement in the corner of her eye, getting ready to turn her head and growl at him to stay away. But, when she did turn, the sight of tears falling from Sinbad's eyes made her stop. Confused, Zarah remained frozen as she watched him get closer and closer. Eventually she released her tender hold, and stepped away.

Sinbad was now face to face with you, but you were too worse for wear to even aknowledge it. The color from your face was faded, and your eyes were heavy. You put so much focus on the pain you felt in your body that you were nearly no longer in the waking world. Gingerly, Sinbad cupped your head in his hands, touching your soft skin as he made himself learn that this was not just a terrible, terrible dream. In his strong arms, he scooped you up, wrapping your arms around his neck as he held you up from your bottom; your legs wrapped limply around his torso. He carried you that way until you reached the beach again, Zarah, Aladdin, Morgiana and Alibaba not far behind.

Sinbad walked you to your shack alone, only to gently lay you down on your cot on the floor. As he stood up, he saw your eyes were wide open, staring at him from below. The stern expression on your face startling him.

"Why are you here, Sinbad?" you asked in a monotone voice.

That was the first time Sinbad had heard your voice in over half a year, and he felt a reminding twinge in the back of his head of how he felt about you since then.

Sinbad's expression turns sour and he rolled his eyes to himself "Tsk".

"Did you stalk me? I thought I made myself clear on what I wanted," you continued grilling him with no emotion in your tone.

"Y/N" he clenched his teeth together.

"I'm finally living my life, so why can't you move on and live yours already?"

"I'm not having this discussion right now," Sinbad turned and opened the door to leave, putting his back to you "you need to get better".

The door firmly shut behind him, a knot twisting in your gut.

That was way too harsh of me. I love him, and yet-

Although you were exhausted and pained the whole time, you were conscious when Sinbad picked you up and carried you. You loved feeling his body heat up against yours, it was like it was helping take the pain away, both in your body and mind.

Your heart was beating faster the more you thought of Sinbad, and you found it best for you to stop that and get some rest.
