Finally. The last chap. Mostly serious but a little comedy with Beezy in it. I'm gonna shut up so I can write the story now.
Jimmy sat next to Heloise's bed as she laid unconscious. She had passed out in his arms just when everything looked like it was going to be ok. He took her back to her house just as Lucius arrived to find out where the Shadow leech had went. Lucius was disappointed that the monster was no longer causing misery and had failed to notice Jimmy carrying Heloise away.
Heloise was laying under the covers of her bed with her arms on top of the blanket, her hair was still loose and spread out as she laid. The only way to tell that she was still alive was the fact that her chest still rose with her breathing. Jimmy held one of her hands in his own and looked at her with tears in his eyes. It broke his heart to see her like this.
Suddenly a shadow appeared behind Jimmy...
"Yo Jimmy!"
Beezy's voice rang out and started the blonde boy. He looked back in surprise to his demon friend. "Beezy?! What the heck man?!" Jimmy looked at him but still held onto Heloise's hand. "Are you done watching Heloise sleep yet? You said we would play later and it's later!" Beezy complained.
"Sorry Beez, but I can't leave. I have to stay and make sure Heloise is ok." Jimmy explained "But you've been sitting here for 4 days!" Beezy yelled dramatically. "It's only been 2 hours." Jimmy told him. "Eh. Same difference. She'll be fine." Beezy told his best friend. Suddenly Beezy's phone rang and he answered it "Yo." on the other end Samy was looking frantic. "Beezy you gotta come over quick! Your new pet Grugly Has been hit by a truck!" Samy yelled. "He'll be fine" "He's dead Beezy." "He'll be fine." and with that, Beezy turned off his phone and began walking out. "Later Jimmy." Jimmy just watched him go as he tried to understand what just happened.
Jimmy turned his attention back to the girl laying before him. As another tear escaped his eyes he whispered " Heloise...please wake up soon."
Heloise slowly opened her eyes as she felt a warm light approach her. "Huh?" she mumbled. She began to sit up slowly and looked around. Where was she?
Her surroundings were a faint pinkish color with gold light shining down in little patches. She noticed that she was sitting on some sort of pink cloud like substance. "What happened? Where am I?" she asked herself
"Your in the dreamworld."
Heloise whipped her head around looking for the source of the voice. It was gentle yet firm and sounded warm. "Who's there?" she questioned out loud. She noticed a silhouette walking torwards her through the cloudy stuff. The silouette began to step into the light as it spoke "Oh Heloise, I was really hoping you would remember the voice of your own mother."
The figure stepped into the light to reveal herself as Heather, Heloise's mother.
Heloise's eyes widened as she sat there in disbelief. "...m...mom...?" she choked out. Heather smiled at her and said "It's been a long time hasn't it my little Hely." Heloise rose to her feet and ran over to her mother and gave her a hug. Tears of joy began to fill her eyes but did not fall from her eyes. She couldnt believe what she was seeing.
"Mom, is it really you?! I thought you had died!" Heloise told her. Heather wrapped her arms around her daughter and said "I'm sorry Heloise. But I did die." Heloise then shot her eyes open and asked "Then...does that mean I'm-" "No Heloise, you are still alive." Heather answered. "This is a world within your dreams. After you broke free of that shadow leech, your energy was depleted and you passed out. I was able to break away from the afterlife to talk to you for a bit. It seems that you finally remembered who you are." Heather explained. "I've watched you for all this time Heloise. I was only never able to talk to you because you sealed away your memories. But because you have regained them, I was able to see you once more."
Heloise looked to the ground in shame "Then you must know what I've become now huh?" Heather lifted her chin up and said "It is alright. Just because your a evil scientist that causes pain to others. Doesn't mean you don't have a good heart." Heloise looked at her with confusion at that "Um mom. I torture people for fun! How can I still have a good heart?" "Because you still believe in things such as love and one possesses traits such as those, then one can never truly be evil." Heather explained.
Heloise thought for a moment then asked "Mom, I just need to know something. Why did you die to save me?" Heather embraced her daughter once more. "I did it because I love you. What that witch said about no one loving you was a big fat lie. There are people who love you." she stopped for a moment as she faintly heard Jimmy's voice calling for Heloise in the distance. "And right now, there's someone who loves you waiting for you to wake up." Heather spoke. Heloise looked in surprise and whispered "Jimmy!" "He's waiting for you Heloise, go."
Heloise turned to her mother "Will I ever see you again?" "Only time will tell. Just remember, I will always be watching you. And I will always be in your heart." Heather smiled and the two shared one last embrace before Heloise felt a light pulling her away.
Back in Heloise's room, Heloise began to stir. Jimmy looked at her and a gentle smile appeared on his face. Heloise opened her eyes to see Jimmy looking down at her with a loving smile "Heloise! Your awake!" he said happily.
Heloise gave him a small smile and playfully asked "What'd I miss?" she lifted herself up and sat upright instead of laying down. "Well Lucy came by looking for the monster and Beezy stopped by. Nothing much." he answered "Heloise, are you ok?" his voice filled with concern. "Yeah, I just used up my energy and blacked out for a bit. I'm ok now." she reassured him. Jimmy let out a sigh of relief then continued "You really scared me Heloise. For a second I thought you were dead!" he admitted "Come on Jimmy, it'll take more than a giant evil monster to kill me." she paused for a moment "But...thanks for worrying..." blush spread over both of theyre faces.
After a moment of silence, Jimmy finally spoke up. "So Heloise. How did you get inside that creature in the first place?" Heloise's face fell and she turned her head away from him. She gripped the blanket on her bed and said quietly "She tricked me. She said she would tell me my past, and she did. But she also told me lies and told me that I was unloved and hated." Jimmy looked at her for a moment before wrapping his arms around her. "Well she did lie. Because I love you. And that will never change." Jimmy said sincerely. Heloise returned the hug and said "I know that now Jimmy, and...I love you too." she admitted.
Jimmy smiled and hugged her tighter. "Heloise, I want you to know that even if you feel alone...or think that everything is hopeless...just remember that I will always be there for you. I'm sorry it took me so long to realize my feelings, and I'm sorry that I caused you pain in the past because of my obliviousness. But now I'm here for you, and I always will be." Heloise felt tears of joy returned to her eyes. "Man Jimmy, why did you have to make me cry again? It's gonna ruin my image." she said as she cuddled up to his chest. Jimmy ran his hand through her hair as she laid on his chest.
A few minutes of silence passed until Jimmy and Heloise let go of each other and looked into each others eyes. The two began leaning forward and closed their eyes.
And then they're lips touched in their first kiss.
It was soft and sweet, but filled with love. The kiss lasted for a minute until both pulled away. Heloise wrapped her arms around his neck and said "Do you have any idea how long I've waited to do that?" "I do now." he smiled. Heloise then rested her head on Jimmy's lap. She sighed softly and Jimmy put his hand on her head and ran his fingers through her hair.
A few minutes later and Jimmy hears her breathing deeply. He looks and see's her asleep on his lap. "She just woke up and now she's back to sleep again." he chuckled to himself. He bent over and gave her a soft kiss on the forehead. "Sleep tight Heloise."
And that my friends is the end of the story. I already have a small one shot sequel to this. But it would just be about Jimmy and Heloise's first date.
Also for anyone who's wondering. I imagine Heather being voiced by Nicole Oliver and sounding like Princess Celestia from My Little Pony. (Fun fact, Heloise is voiced by Princess Luna)
So I hoped you all liked this story. See u all l8tr
