Warning ⚠️mentions of drowning⚠️

It was currently night time. I flopped onto my bed, thinking about what happened at the waterfall. It was nice.
But what if I made a mistake trusting him with that place? Anyone can turn on you. Even the cutest dorks.

"She admitted it."

"When will you get out of my mind?!"

"Only when you finally confess to Varian sweetie."

"Do you guys ever get bored in my mind?"

"Nah."

"It's just that...ok I'll admit it, Varian's cute."

"What about him specifically?"

"Well, he's smart. He knows everything about science and alchemy. He's sweet. He always cheers me up, does good deeds for Corona, and always helps out someone when he has the chance."

""Go on.."

"I could get lost in Varian's eyes. They remind me of blue flames. His hair is so fluffy. And he's such a dork. He's so adorkable. Whenever he just does something on accident and just laughs about it is..." I sighed.

"And all you have to do...is say you like him."

"But what if he doesn't like me back?"

"We're actually being honest this time, I'm 99% sure he does."

"Well then, I'll just have to see." I say, having a determined look on my face.

"See about what?" Someone answered. I jumped back, and  saw Eugene in the doorway.

"Nothing, nothing at all. Just wanted to see how good the cookies are here in the castle."I stammered. I'm screwed. Eugene gave me a stare.

"Y/n m/n l/n."

"I will not leave this room until you tell me what's going on." Eugene crosses his arms and didn't break eye contact with me. I had to give in.

"I like somebody and I want to ask him out and I'm nervous to, ok now you can leave my room! Bye!" I tried pushing my brother out the door, but he didn't budge.

"That's what you were talking about?!" He chuckled, " Dandelion, it's ok with me, why are you afraid?" I twiddled my thumbs. I thought that he would make fun of me.

"Listen kid, all you need to do is take him somewhere where you two can be easily distracted. When you two are just sitting down alone, just pop la question."

I smiled, "Thank you Eugene. It means a lot."

"Hey, who is the lucky guy anyways? I don't know your type."

I hesitated. Should I really tell him? He would be the first person to know. I've heard stories that he has told secrets too many times. I hope I'm making the right choice.

"It's Varian."

His eyes widened. "OHH I KNEW IT! BLONDIE GUESS WHAT?!" Eugene yelled as he sprinted out the room. That was probably a bad choice. I sat up on my bed. Let's just hope that half of Corona doesn't know in at least five hours.

I found a dress in my closet that looked pretty. It had a red corset and a knee length skirt with a petticoat underneath.I look at myself in the mirror. I look great! I twirled, letting the dress whirl around. I turn my head, hearing a knock at the door. I open the door and see a happy brunette.

"Hey Raps."

"Hi Y/n! Ok, so I heard that you're going to tell Varian that you like him and I am so excited. That's the perfect dress, but it needs something." She sure talked really fast when she was excited. Rapunzel handed me some earrings and some cool black shoes with black laces. I wonder who invented these shoes, I've never seen them before. Probably Feldspar.I was surprised. For someone who doesn't wear shoes, she does have good taste in them. I slipped them on, putting on the earrings afterwards. Now I looked great.

I ran into the castle kitchen and asked if I could have two ham sandwiches. Surprisingly, there were already made. Either they are used to me getting sandwiches or Rapunzel had something to do with this. Either way, thank goodness that it didn't take long. I asked if I could take Maximus to Old Corona. Thankfully, I could.

I was riding on Max to Old Corona to ask Varian to hang out. He gave me his address last time we hanged out. Just a couple houses down...234, 236...aha. House 238. I got off Max and got an apple out of my backpack. I grabbed a green apple and put it in Max's mouth. He neighed in pleasure. I walked to Varian's door and knocked. God, I'm nervous. I saw the door swing open and saw Varian's father.

"Hey Quirin. How's your day going? I've heard so much about you." I exclaim. The guy just gave me a weird look. Oh right, he doesn't know who I am.

"Sorry. I'm Y/n, sister of Eugene and a friend of Varian." I'm now more nervous, this guy looks like he would throw me against a wall and then stab me. He frowns at me. Fuck, he's going to kill me.

"Varian! Do you know of anyone named Y/n?" Quirin yelled inside of his house. I saw Varian run over. It looked like he had a fashion show before he got here. He wore khakis and some boots with a blue jacket that brung out his eyes. He took the hair out of his eyes and greeted me.

"Hey Varian! I uh..needed to ask you something. Would you possibly like to explore the place you showed me the other day? I think you would enjoy it, and I've heard that there are flowers to use for alchemy. I think they're called moon flowers." Oh god, what is Quirin going to say...

"Varian, you may go with her if this isn't a date." Varian's father said while doing a face palm back into the house.

I flushed. "Heh...date pshh- your dad doesn't know what he's talking about." I scratched my neck.

Once we arrived, I showed Varian the bridge by the waterfall.

"And here we are. You didn't think that there was only a waterfall, didn't you?" I yelled, as I heard my voice echo. Varian stood there in shock with his jaw dropped to the floor, looking at the beauty of the water glistening in the moonlight with some pretty flowers.

"Come on, let's cross the bridge." I start stepping on the old bridge. Geez, I have a gut feeling that somethings wrong.

"Y/n, are you sure about this?"

"I'm positive Varian don't you worry, everything will be perfectl-" I heard something crack underneath me. Soon, I felt nothing under my feet. I yelp and grab a bar from the bridge. My body swings around in the air.

"Y/n! Grab onto my hand!" I reach for Varian's hand with my free hand. He tries pulling me up, but it's no use.

"Nothing will happen to you, don't worry Y/n. You will be ok, I promise you." Varian spoke with his calming voice. I hope I remember how to swim. The winds get stronger by the second, but it doesn't help my sweaty palms. I start losing my grip on Varian's hand and the bridge.

"Varian, I'm going to fall into the water." I say, my voice trembling with fear.

"I won't let you drown if you slip." Varian's voice soothed me, but it didn't help for long. My hands slipped. I fell with my dress flowing into the cold air. The next thing I felt was a slap on my back, feeling the ice cold water all around me.
