Candyman x reader (part 6)

You hated to part with Daniel but someone might've seen you if you wouldn't. Before you left, you were slowly pulled into his chest. You felt safe, loved and protected in his arms. Your heart beat increased as always and you didn't want to leave him. But alas, you had to...

You and Betty grabbed the plates, locked the slave house and with a good feeling, went home. On the way, Betty gently bumped her hip to yours. It got your attention and you turned to her.
"So?"
"So..?"
"So who are the red cheeks for?" Betty grinned, really wanting all the information. You chuckled quietly.
"Noone..."
"Oh (Y/n) please... I need to know..." Betty pouted in a needy tone. She sounded like a child. She kind of reminded you of Misha.
"For... for Daniel..." You quietly admited, looking behind you to the slave house. Betty let out a louder gasp, with a smile.
"My lady! How outrageous!" She teased you.
"Stooop!" You giggled, opening the door to your house, and holding it open for your friend.
As soon as she came in, the smile on her lips disapeared.

"What're you doing" A deeper voice came from up the stairs. It was one of the slavers that usualy rode around the cotton fields, yelling at slaves. Betty was imidiately in distress.
"I-I-I-" She struggled to let out any kind of sentence. She was obviously not good at lying.
"We were outside. Getting rid of the leftovers." You stepped foward, sounding sharp.
"The damn monkeys are supposed to take care of that. Not you lady" The slaver said, imidiately making you feel more steam come up in your chest.
"What's your name." You ordered, more than asked.
"Quinn" The slaver answered. He still sounded pretty rough and tough but you weren't gonna let that get in your way.
"Well, Quinn, I feel like I can do whatever the hell I want. Because at the end of the day, this is my house and I am the ruler here." You swiftly aproached the slaver, seeing him put his foot back.
"So... Get. Out. Of. My. Home." You pointed to the door, still holding one of the metal plates in your hand.
"Whatever missy..." The slaver murmured and walked towards the door, hitting his shoulder on Betty.
As soon as the door shut behind him, you exhaled.
"God... I felt like such a brat..." You admitted, turning to Betty.
"You may have felt like it, but you defenetly said the right thing! If I can be so bold..." Betty lowered her gaze a little, with a smile.
"Let's just go put theese in the kitchen and wash them..." You smiled.

Betty insisted on washing the dishes all alone but you refused. You at least came to a compromise. Betty washed and you dried and put to their cubboards.
"So... (Y/n)..." Betty started as she washed yet another plate.
"Hm?"
"Tell me about Daniel..." Betty pleaded, making puppy eyes. You chuckled as you set a plate into the cubby.
"There's... well actualy there's a lot to tell" You smiled.
"He's... He's just great. I love how much attention he gives me and... his calming, sweet voice always says a kind word..." You cleaned one part of a plate unknowingly.
"His hold is like an angel's..." You held your warm cheek, hearing betty giggle at you.
"It's so sweet seeing you two finnaly together" She smiled.
"Finnaly?" You turned to her, curiosity in your face.
"Well yes of course, Daniel has been in love with you for quite a while... the one's that knew were mostly hoping for you to work out" Betty explained, handing you a washed plate. "I was of course, one of those who were, and still are, worried..." She said, stoping the water.
"Why are you worried?" You asked as your friend walked to your side.
"Well... you and... and Daniel... It's um... how to say this..." Betty was a little frustrated, trying to find the correct explanation.
"You two are not... usual..." She turned to you in the end. Usual? What did she mean?
"Y'know... a black man... a white woman... It's not really... It" She explained further.
"I am just worried one of you will get hurt badly..." She finnished.
"Don't worry... nothing will happen... I promise" You smiled at Betty, reasuringly.
"I hope you are right..." She said.

You two said your good nights and went to bed.
You of course returned the keys to your father's bed table before you went.
As soon as you fell onto your bed you were asleep. You didn't dream much. It was mostly barren. Untill... you heard a deep, echo-y voice in the back of your head...
"Wake up." It ordered strongly.
Almost at the snap of a branch, your eyes shot open. The outside was shining yellow, and you heard some... voices. Some yells.
You felt like you knew this from somewhere. You threw the blankets off of you and trotted over to the window. All you could see was a small bunch of people, running to the right, past the giant apple tree.
You felt the need to join in. To find out what was happening. You very quickly threw on the clothes you had on last night and ran out, full speed.

The bunch of people were after something, and you had to know. For some reason you worried...
You ran quickly, seeing the bunch far away, next to golden fields of hay. You heard screaming and shouting come from their group. Soon, a loud scream echoed all over the fields, making you hold your head as it gave you a terrible headache. You almost felt like your head was going to explode, untill the scream was replaced with evil laughter and cackles. As soon as you felt better, you ran towards them.
You aproached them and pushed them out of the way. You saw poor Daniel, laying on the ground with his shirt off, covered in blood and... honey? You heard a couple of voices laugh at the nickname "Candyman".
Your arm got grabed by somebody. When you turned you could see the cackling slaver Quinn. You relized it all.
He must've seen you and Betty.
Seen you and Daniel.
You yelled out, not even being sure what you were yelling at this point, you felt like it was all happening in slow motion, making you loose your mind. You ramed your arm out of Quinn's grip and punched him in the stomach, making your quick way to Daniel.
You got on your knees, not even caring if the angry bees around would sting you. As much as Daniel's eyes were filled with fear, pain and sadness, he seemed to be comforted with seeing you.
"I'm sorry... I am so sorry..." You held his hand, seeing as the other one has been brutaly cut off.
"Daniel I am so sorry for what happened to you..." Tears of pure pain went down your cheeks as you squeezed his hand tight. Daniel gave you a sadened nod before bitterly turning towards his slavers.
"Curse you... curse you all to hell. You are all but mere tyrants that will get what they deserve. You will be in pain!" He spat the venomous words, looking at every single one of them.

He laid his head back, looking at you one last time, before his soul left his body...

You screamed out in pain one last time before you woke up with salty tears rolling down your cheeks.
You were on a carpeted floor.
In your home.
Your real home.
Your room.
Your heart was beating dangerously fast, and your breathing was crazy too.
"That was what happened. Do you remember now? Dearest?" A deep voice asked from above. You got up into a sit and looked behind yourself, seeing Daniel in the flesh.
He was dressed in a deep blue coat, that had fur round the shoulders and sleeves. Bees were flying all around him. You speedily got up and looked around, trying to find out if you were actualy in your room.
"You, are another re-incarnation of my beloved. And I finaly got around to you..." He said calmly, aproaching you. You should be frightened, but you weren't... you felt...
Sympathy.
He lift his right hand to your face, and it tugged with you a little. It wasn't a hand. A hook. A hook instead of a hand. The hook gently slid on your cheek. You instictively grabbed his left hand, your eyes filling with tears again.
"I am still... so sorry... for what happened to you Daniel..." You sniffed.
"My beloved... we can finnaly be together... if you wish it..." Daniel said, sliding the hook down your cheek gently.
"I wish it, my love..." You said, before tightly hugging your love. You felt his arms wrap around you once again.
That loving, safe, protective feeling returned, making you feel so at ease.
"I love you..." The Candyman quietly hummed...

You opened up your eyes and saw... yellow...
You were somewhere yellow.
You noticed you had an old dress on again. Looking around a little, you saw a small field. A small yellow field and... someone holding you.
"I love you..." He said, a smile in his voice.
"D...Daniel?" You asked carefuly.
"Yes?" The voice returned, looking back down at you. You looked up at him, imidiately getting a smile on your lips.
"I love you too"
