A Thorn in My Side(The Owl House Oc Story)

Family Drama

Rosie's POV

"RENAE! Listen please! Don't make any rash decisions! Me and Roxie can't be without you!" I said giving my wife a kiss on the cheek.

The healer pushed the hair out of my face. "Hey... It's okay. I'll be fine. You're dad won't let me do anything stupid." She said giving me a kiss.

Roxie ran over, "you're not leaving again are you!" Her yellow and purple eyes sparked with worry.

Renae bent down and ruffled Roxie's hair. "I'll be back... I always come back."

Roxie didn't meet Renae's eyes. "Okay..." she met Renae's eyes, "I love you Momma."

Renae chuckled, "love you too Squirt." She stood up and pulled me into a kiss. "And I love you."

"Rosie.... Rosie!"

I jerked awake. I looked over to Riña. The maid was holding a broom. "Rosie. It's time to get up. Breakfast is ready."

I groaned and covered my head with the blanket. "Yeah but I'm not.... Let me sleeeppppp!" I whined, rolling over on my side. "You ruined my dream."

"Did it have Renae in it?" She asked, a hint of mischief in her voice.

I shot up and glared at her, "n-no!" I snapped, heat rising to my cheeks.

"Sure. Anyways your parents request you be there for breakfast." She said and started towards the door.

I watched her leave, a low sigh escaped me. "I bet if I go in there no one but Caroline will be there.." I through the blanket off and made my way to the closet. I picked out a white t-shirt and some blue Jean shorts. I walked to my bathroom and took a quick shower. I got changed into my clothes then fixed my hair in a messy bun. My hair was damp but honestly I didn't care.

I stepped out of my room. The floor was freezing compared to my carpet. I went back in my room and slipped on my slippers. Now I started through the halls and down the stairs. I made my way to the dinning room. I could see the cook placing food on the table. I pulled a chair out and sat down. I was alone at the big table... Mom, dad, not even Caroline was here. I let out a sigh and picked out my food.

Caroline entered the dining room and glanced around, "where's mom and dad?"

I shrugged, "no clue." I started eating my food. The food was delicious as always. But mom and dad were missing.... Like always.

I looked up and could see mom walking in and settling down across from me. "Morning kids." She chuckled nervously.

I narrowed my eyes, "what's wrong."

Mom blinked at me, "what do you mean?"

"You almost never chuckle like that.. What's going on." Caroline snapped narrowing her eyes.

Mom took in a deep breath, "well I have three announcements.. The first one relates to Rosalina. Second relates to you Caroline. And the last one relates to both of you." She paused, "Well. After the rain stops, we're going to go meet Renae's parents.. Ive already talked to them. And maybe. We can go ahead and get the marriage together."

I perked up, "really! So I wouldn't have to wait two years?"

Mom nodded, "it's a possibility. It just all depends on what her parents thinks. They might want to wait." She said.

I smiled, "I hope they don't."

Mom raised an eyebrow, "what was that?"

My cheeks lit up, "Nothing!" I squeaked.

Mom chuckled and turned to Caroline. "Caroline. We have a arranged marriage for you..."

Caroline's orange eyes met Mom's, "WHAT!" She stood up, "YOU SAID I WOULDN'T HAVE TO SINCE ROSALINA WAS GETTING ONE!" She snapped.

I shrunk back in my chair. Now I just wanted Renae by my side.

Mom flinched, she opened her mouth to explain before dad came in. "Yes, but Renae isn't like us."

I shot a look at my dad. I started to argue before he cut me off, "Let me finish. She isn't a upper citizen like us. She's a powerful healer. And I have no regrets letting her be with you." His gaze softened, "but you understand what I mean right?"

I nodded, "yea.. I get what you mean." I said leaning back to my chair.

"THAT DOESNT EXPLAIN WHY I HAVE TO GET MARRIED!" Caroline growled.

Mom made her way over to me and stood beside me.

Dad narrowed his purple eyes, "Caroline this is up to you."

"ROSALINA GOT TO CHOOSE WHY CAN I!" She snarled.

"That wasn't Rosalina's choice, it was Renae's." Dad argued.

Mom tapped my shoulder, "go to your room." She said quietly.

I gave a nod and started towards the stairs. I flinched hearing the crashing of glass. I rushed up the stairs and slipped in my room shutting the door behind me. I leaned against the door and let out a sigh. I pulled out my scroll and messaged Renae, "hey.. We need to talk."
