Stay (To Break My Curse)

Summary:

Lockwood is convinced he’s cursed to be alone… until he meets Lucy.

Written for Locklyle Week 2024, Day 6: Cursed/charmed

Notes:

I am so sorry, I somehow completely forgot about Locklyle Week (guess I was too busy) and so I decided to write a drabble instead to still post it before midnight (where I live, at least).

Work Text:

Lockwood was cursed; everyone left him in the end. His family, Gravedigger Sykes and his agency, were all proof of that. He'd almost been too scared to make his own agency fearing it would be ruined too.

Until he met Lucy.

She'd changed everything. She was amazing, and he cared about her so much. Every day he worried that she would leave, proving he was still cursed, yet every day he couldn't help but love her even more, daring to think that maybe she was a blessing to counteract the curse.

Thinking maybe, she'd be the one who finally stayed.
