Onceler X Fem!reader Oneshots!

Onceler x suicidal! reader (Part 4 FINALE)

[Everything deserves a happy ending, and today I thought that I will give you comrades one!]
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

No one's POV

It's been decades since your death, and let me tell you, the Onceler never forgave himself. He never met another woman, was never interested in finding another one, he just wanted you back. He sat alone in his cottage, regretting everything he had done, he wish he could turn back time, but that was impossible. Everyday he stared at the word the Lorax had left him, "Unless" thinking about what it meant. And today, he saw the opportunity to make a change...

Onceler's POV

Recently, this boy has been visiting me to know about trees, why? I don't know, maybe it's a girl. I would do anything for the woman who I love, anything to get her back... it's been many years, living with regret, boiling with guilt, drowning in loneliness.

"Hellooo? You there?" Ted shouted from outside, I snapped out of my thoughts and looked through the wooden planks which boarded the window.
"Ah your back! Watcha got there?" I asked, wedging my arms through the planks to motion to him. He lifted up a bag full of marshmallows!

I could've squeeled like a little girl, that's if I wasn't old, had weak lungs and a raspy voice. I brought down the whisper-ma-phone, which he poured the marshmallows into. I slurped it all up and chewed, Ted stared in awe and laughed. I finished eating
"Thank you Ted! Now, where did I lead up to... Ah yes!-"

Flashback

It was a few days after (y/n)'s funeral, my mind was fuzzed and I couldn't get any work done. Knowing that I didn't have the woman I love next to me made my heart rip itself into a billion pieces, especially since that her death was all my fault.

I slammed my head onto my desk in anger as my mind tortured itself with memory's of her, they kept on coming and coming and COMING! My hands pulled at my hair as tears flowed down my eyes
"Please.. stop it! BRING HER BACK PLEASE!" A puddle of tears formed on my desk.

My eyes widened as I heard a knock at my door, I rubbed my puffy eyes with my green gloved hands
"Give me a second!" I hollered as I tried to sort myself out. After a few seconds of heavy breathing and mental preparation, I called the person in. My control freak mother walked in with a smile on her face

"Hello Oncie! So... Business has been a little slow recently, and since you ran out of the very important meeting" I rolled my eyes at the way she emphasized 'VeRy iMpOrTaNt' "they pushed back the date due to circumstances. Do you think you can... You know..." I gave her a stern look, waiting to hear what she had to say.
"Forget about (y/n)?"

My eye twitched and anger erupted from me, I shot up and glared at her
"What the fuck do you mean? Do you not understand?! I LOST THE WOMAN I LOVED, MUM! I DON'T CARE ABOUT THIS BUSINESS ANYMORE. I. WANT. HER. NOTHING ELSE!" My breathing was heaving, my fingers digging into my desk so I can control myself

She gulped
"Yes, I- I know! But, she's gone! She's out of your way, you can get so much done! You don't have to waste money on her pointless med-"
"SHE WAS NEVER IN MY WAY, I DIDN'T WANT TO STOP PAYING FOR SOMETHING SHE DESPERATELY NEEDED, BUT SOMEONE WOULDN'T GET OFF MY BACK! NOW. GET. OUT." I growled, she gave me an offended look and turned around, leaving my office.
