“Mom! Dad! I need your help!”
Was the first thing the pink and green fairy godparents quickly jumped into was protective parent mode, thinking that their dear Poof was in some sort of trouble. They quickly dropped what they were doing and made their way to their son, who looked like he’s having a mental breakdown at the front door.
“What’s wrong sweetheart!? Did something terrible happen to you!?” yelled Wanda.
“Did you break your spine!? Did the sun explode!? Did the burger place cancel the Tuesday specials!?” Cosmo gasped, grabbing the young man’s suspenders “Please don’t tell me they canceled the Tuesday specials!!”
“No dad” Poof said as he pushed away his father, he fixed his hair and clothes, “This is more about me! I- I think I like someone! And it’s scaring me!!” He cried.
Cosmo and Wanda just looked at each other with confusion.
“You… like someone? But isn’t that great? My little boy is in love!” Wanda gushed.
“Yeah! What’s wrong with love!?” Cosmo agreed.
“Honey, is it a boy? Is that what this is about? You have nothing to worry about dear, I mean just look at your father and I” she pulled Cosmo close, “Me and your father both don’t care whether we’re attracted to men or women!”
“Oh… wow, okay… wait how did you know it was a boy? Never mind, that’s not why I’m freaking out about it! It’s about who it is!”
“Oh? Well who is it? He can’t be that bad! The fairies we meet are always a hundred percent nice” Wanda asked.
“Because he isn’t a fairy!” Their son cried.
“Oh really? What type is he? A garden gnome? A leprechaun? An Elf?” Cosmo paused for a bit before his face paled, “Is it a P-Pixie!!??”
“WHAT!?” Wanda yelled, looking at her son with shock.
Poof winced, “N-no but c-close…”
The couple looked at eachother with horrified expressions.
“An Anti-fairy!!??” Yelled Wanda.
“Santa claus!?”
The two just looked at the green fairy, it took him a second to figure out what his wife said and retracted his words.
“Uh, I mean! An Anti Fairy!!??”
“Yes…” the purple fairy said with his head lowered.
Wanda looked at him with sympathy, “Oh sweetie, there’s no need to be ashamed. Yeah, it’s surprising all right but it’s not your fault you fell for someone of that type of magical creature. Who is it anyway?”
“It’s the anti-fairy I meet as a baby”
Why didn’t he just say his name? Well, that’s easy, he’s embarrassed as hell to even tell his parents directly.
Cosmo and Wanda just hung their mouths open, “HUH!?? HIM!? FOOP!!??”
“Wow, I never saw that coming,” Cosmo said.
“Foop? The same baby that tried to kill you when he was first born? The one that tried to destroy the world? That Foop?”
“Yes! And I think he feels the same way, maybe? I don’t know! That’s why I need your help!”
Wanda was just too stunned to speak, this was all just too much to process.
Cosmo looked like his last two brain cells were trying to connect with one another.
“What do you mean he feels the same way?” Wanda assured her husband and son to the couch, feeling that Poof might be uncomfortable letting out his feelings on the hard cold floor.
“Well… a few weeks ago he suddenly came to me out of nowhere and gave me a bouquet of flowers. After that I’ve been getting some gifts from a “secret admirer”, sometimes something cute like chocolate and stuff toys, but then sometimes it’s dangerous weapons or dead birds”
“Aw how romantic” Cosmo coots, “I remember the time when I gifted your mother a dead bird!”
“I’d rather not remember that” the woman sighed at the unpleasant memory, “Well, at least he isn’t going out to destroy you like before. I’m surprised he just suddenly liked you, not that it’s a bad thing! You're our handsome boy after all!”
“Mooom!” Poof whined.
“But still, he always acted like he hated you for what we could remember. It’s been years since we saw him in person, I hope he changes his ways by now.”
“I have a question, has there ever been a case where a fairy and an Anti-fairy date? Like at all?” Cosmo wondered.
“Hey, you're right!” Wanda slapped her face in shock, “Like can they even get registered to get married? Is that even possible!? Does anything in da rules say anything about that?”
“Can an Anti fairy and a fairy even have kids? Does the woman or man get pregnant in a heterosexual fairy - anti fairy relationship? Does that mean it’s possible for a male fairy - anti fairy relationship to have their own hybrid fairy baby? Does that-” Cosmo babbeld.
“GUYS!!” Poof waved his hands like a mad man with his face flushed, “I just told you two that I’m starting to develop feelings for an anti fairy! And you all are already talking about marriage and kids!?!?”
“Oh calm down son, we were just asking questions we never had the answer to. Plus it never hurts to prepare early!”
Wanda pulled Cosmo aside and hugged her son, “Oh Poof, if you truly like him then you should go for it. Though I am worried, anti fairies are known to be conniving and tricksters, not to mention evil! I don’t want you to get hurt”
“Yeah! If he ever hurt you in any way I’ll make sure he will pay! I learned karate!” Cosmo said as he tried to karate chop the air, only for him to somehow chop his own back.
“OUCH!!… Did I mention I'm still a yellow belt?” He said as he stumbled to the ground with an ‘oof’.
Wanda helped Cosmo back up, the purple fairy sighed.
“It’s okay guys, I can handle myself if things go that way. Um, can I be excused to my room?”
“Eh, go ahead dear, I’m about to help your dad rearrange his back anyway”
Poor hurriedly went to his room, once he got there he grabbed his fairy phone and texted his best friend on what happened.
*Poof!*: Hey u there?
Goldilocks: No im asleep
*Poof!*: Oh come on pls it’s urgent!
Goldilocks: I was just joking, what’s up?
*Poof!*: I told my parents about Foop, they freaked out a bit but were totally supportive.
Goldilocks: Ok that’s good, are you finally gonna give him an answer? I swear he’s going to drill holes in the back of my head with his constant glaring. Like he thinks we were still dating or something LOL! We were literally babies during that time.
*Poof!*: yeah maybe this week, he likes me and I’m starting to like him, so I’ll say yes! despite half of his gifts to me literally being hazardous I think it’s very sweet of him. Besides he a-
Goldilocks: don’t say it
*Poof!*: bad boy!!
Goldilocks: oh my god
Goldilocks: You need to raise your standards Poof, he literally looks the lapis lazuli square block in minecraft
*Poof!*: shut
Goldilocks: no
*Poof!*: >:(
Goldilocks: It’s true tho
Goldilocks: oops gtg, my mom is calling me.
*Poof!*: ok talk to you later
Poof sighed once more as he placed his phone on his night stand. The sound of his father’s cries and back cracks and his mother’s yells sounds like dinner would take a while.
He sighed as he looked at a specific name in his phone contacts. Foop gave him his number, making up a ridiculous excuse on why he gave his number to his “arch nemesis”, saying that it would benefit an evil plan or whatever. But he’s certain it is for him to get in contact with him.
He smiled at the profile picture Foop put, it was him doing his signature evil smile while holding his morning star wand in his hand. The teen fairy giggled, he looks stupid, but he also looks cute.
He can’t wait until next week comes
——
A week later, at the Park
“How do I look?” Poof said with worry, he tried fixing every wrinkle in clothes.
“You look fine stupid, just go up there and talk to him” Goldie huffed, pointing up a hill where a singular tree is placed. In front of it was Foop, holding a bouquet of blue flowers poorly disguised behind his back.
“Ugh, I’m just so nervous!” His hands shook, “What if I make a fool of myself?”
“So? I’m pretty sure that is one of the things he likes about you. Just go!” Goldie assured.
Poof took a look up the hill and sighed, he puffed up his chest and nodded. He shakily walked towards the anti fairy, each time he would turn his head around to see his friend, who just gives him a thumbs up. He stops as soon as he makes it on top, facing his ex-nemesis, or at least a nemesis on Foop's part.
The blue anti fairy spotted him and nervously greeted him.
“Why hello my love! I mean! Hello my enemy! I mean! Hello my good man, I mean!- GAHHH!!!”
The fairy giggled, “Hello to you too, what did you want to talk about?”
Foop blinked, then got flushed, “Oh! Um… yes! Haha…” he showed the flowers to the other man and leaned them towards Poof, “GO OUT WITH ME OR I'LL DESTROY YOU! *ahem* pretty please?”
Poof side eye at Goldie, who just slapped her hand on her forehead and mouthed out ‘good luck with him, you're gonna need it’ or something similar.
Well, that was certainly a confession… but he did admire his courage, that's for sure.
Though he already made up his mind.
“Sure” he grabbed the flowers, “I will love to go out with you”
“PLEASE I BEG- wait what? You said yes?” Foop mouth hung wide open, he then started to jump up and down like a little kid, “YES! HAHAHA!! YES YES YES!!”
The other male fairy didn’t have time to react as he was suddenly pulled into a kiss. The purple haired fairy could barely hear the clapping and whistling from Goldie or the screams of an old man say to get a room, his wide eyes staring at the other man, who has his eyes shut tightly that it might fall off. His movements were also sloppy and he was hugging him painfully tight, it was clear that Foop did in fact rehearse this, but actually never did it before to another person.
But-
It was still a special moment for him, for both of them.
His eyes slowly closed, enjoying the kiss, his first kiss believe it or not.
Maybe this might not be a bad idea.
——
It’s been a week since the two magical fae’s started dating, they started small at first, going on dates and holding hands, maybe some kisses then and there but nothing to major. Goldie keeps insisting to introduce Foop to his parents because he’s old enough to not hide a lover from his family and his parents already make it clear that they would support him.
After a few days Poof finally cracked and agreed to show him to his parents. Thank goodness the anti fairy’s parents don't give two shits on who their son dates, he is a hundred percent certain his heart would not handle that.
So he dragged Foop to his house in fairy world, he didn’t want to at first but he convinced him.
Now here they were, Foop was sitting at the dinner table looking like an innocent child, both Cosmo and Wanda looked at him with disbelief, and Poof was right next to his parents pointing at his boyfriend.
“So, Mom, Dad, this is my boyfriend Foop! We started dating a week ago and we thought it was time to tell you guys!”
“Oh, uh” Wanda put up a nervous smile, “That… great! I’m so happy for you Poof”
She looked at her husband, seeing that he hadn't said anything, “Honey…?”
Cosmo snapped back to reality, he smiled at his wife before bringing his attention back to the new couple, “That’s great! I’m so happy for you, my little Poofy!” He paused for a moment, “Can I… speak to Foop for a moment? Alone?”
Both Wanda and Poof looked at him for a while, then at each other. Foop just shrugged and got up from his seat.
“Dad, what are you gonna say to him?” Poof grabs his father’s arm. Sure his dad might be an airhead most of the time but he’s still worried about what he could say to Foop.
“Nothing much son, just a few words”
Poof let him go and Foop followed Cosmo to the living room. The young fairy looked at his mother with worry.
“Mom…”
“Don’t worry sweetheart, I’m sure they’re just having a man to man talk, that’s all” she ruffled his hair to calm him down.
In the living room Cosmo had stopped walking, facing away from Foop. The anti fairy was in no means scared of his boyfriend’s father, like, isn’t he his own father’s more smarter and evil version or something?
“I’m just gonna go straight to the point” Cosmo began, surprising Foop as that’s the first time in his life to hear the idiot talk in a very serious tone.
“You better treat my son right, no physical or emotional abuse, no cheating, nada! If you ever hurt him in any way I will personally hunt you down and kill you in the most gruesome way possible!” He said with a dark tone.
His body cartoonishly got bigger, making Foop small in comparison. He nodded rapidly, scared out of his mind.
“Good!” Cosmo happily cheered, doing a one eighty and entering back the dining area. Foop shortly followed, looking scared shitless.
Poof got up from his seat and his father took a seat next to his wife. He hugged his boyfriend’s arm, he could feel his arm being stiff as a board.
“Babe? Are you ok?”
Foop just blinked before assuring his boyfriend that he was all right. They all ate, but just with a bit of tension in the air.
——-
“Honey?”
“Yes dear?” Cosmo said as he was reading an upside down newspaper on the couch, his wife right next to him.
“Don’t you think Poof’s getting a… little rebellious?”
“Why do you think that?”
“Well…” Wanda paused to look at the window, seeing her son slip through his bedroom window and jumping into his boyfriend’s arm. They share a kiss and drive off on a motorcycle.
“For starters he just sneaked out the window to go do whatever with his boyfriend” she pointed out, “He doesn’t even need to sneak out! He could just tell us and we will say yes, unless they’re going somewhere they’re not supposed to of course!”
“Oh just let him, you remember the time when either of us snuck out of our houses to be with each other”
“That’s because your mom and my dad didn’t approve of us being with each other! Oh I’m just worried about our little boy…”
Cosmo wrapped an arm around his wife, “Oh don’t worry, if Foop even dare to do something that could impact our son, he got one thing coming to him”
The female fairy chuckled, “Well, you can count me in” they first bumped.
They decided to wait until their son came back home, though when he did come back, it was already past eleven at night and Cosmo was already asleep next to Wanda.
“Now where were you, mister?” Wanda scuffed, she nudged her husband awake.
Poof was suddenly surprised by the sound of his mom’s voice as he turned on the light, but he calmed down, “Oh, well sorry I didn’t tell you guys before but me and Foop went out to see a movie, then we ate at some restaurant.”
“Uh huh” Wanda said sarcastically, “We saw you leave at around six, doing the math you should have been home by nine!”
The purple haired fairy just scoffed, “Okay fine, after we finished eating we went to his place.”
“And doing what?” Wanda raised a brow.
“Oh my god mom” Poof groaned, “We were just watching another movie and feel asleep, hence why I came home late, nothing else happened”
“Uh huh, sure” now it was Cosmo’s turn to be sarcastic, “Son I think it’s time for us to have a talk about the Birds and The Bee Gees-”
“Daaaddd!” The younger fairy whined, “No I don't, plus I’m already grown for that as we have a fairy health class in school. I promise I’m being careful just in case your crazy theories are correct.” He stood up, “I’m going to bed, goodnight guys”
“Okay, goodnight sweetheart…” Wanda waved him goodbye as he went into his room.
“What? Too far?” Cosmo asked, earning a frown from Wanda.
———
“Foop, where are you taking me?” The older male asked his boyfriend, being blindfolded, because his partner wanted to surprise him with something.
“Just wait a few more seconds till we are there!” The anti fairy assured.
Twenty seconds later, Poof felt himself stopped as Foop stopped him from going further. He felt the blindfold being removed and the light sting his eyes for a bit, but after a few seconds his vision cleared and his heart skipped a beat.
In front of him, was the sight of the entire city of Dimmsdale up on a hill. Foop apparently dragged him through a magical portal to earth and ended up here in the city where he grew up in.
In the city where he had the best years in his life.
That’s also where he met his current boyfriend.
“Aww babe!” The fairy eyes sparkled as his partner smirked in pride, “The view here is beautiful! This place… is very important to me”
“Yeah I know, this is also the place where we first met, when I tried to kill you… hehe” he laughed nervously, “Anyway, I figure we can enjoy our time here while eating!” He raised his morning star and magically a picnic table appeared, with the picnic cloth and the basket of food. It seems like it’s kind of late for a picnic but it does seem nice to eat while seeing the beautiful night view.
And that’s what they did, they ate, they talked, they played some games (which might or might not include magic for the fun of it), and other fun things, currently they are stargazing.
“Hey Foop?” The fairy asked, his head not moving from chest as they were laying down.
“Hm?”
“Would it be silly if I tried wearing punk clothes?”
The anti fairy head jerked up, “You serious!?”
“It’s just a thought dummy, if I actually did then I'll be bound to give my parents a heart attack. So, what do you think? Will I look cute or silly?”
“I think you will look the cutest” He kissed his forehead, “I would love to see you in that kind of outfit, it could be our couple thing or something” he laughed.
“Or we can dress up like that in the upcoming fairy con!” They both laughed.
“Well? Is that a yes?” Poof tease.
“Am I even allowed to attend?”
“Of course! Any magical creature can attend! That of course if you behave” he booped his nose playfully.
“Can’t promise you that Cotton puff” the anti fairy winked as he hugged his boyfriend tight.
They stayed like that for the rest of the night until Foop needed to take Poof home, enjoying the view of both the stars and the view.
They wish they could stay like that forever.
———
“Mom!! Have you seen my flower!?”
“Here it is!”
“Dad! Where is my tie!?”
“Oops! I think I forgot it in the dryer, don’t worry Dad will make a new one!” Cosmo said as he waved his wand, only to give his son a snake for a tie. It took him a few tries before getting it right.
Yep, today was his prom day and the old teen is just about to have an aneurysm because his special day has been disastrous so far, he could only hope by the time Foop arrives.
“Ow! Mom! You burned me” Poof said as he fidgeted on his seat, his mom behind him doing his hair with a curler.
“Oops! Sorry about that honey” she said as she finished the last touches, “All done!”
Poof smiled and looked at himself in the mirror, he looked good! Gorgeous even!
Foop would definitely like it.
“Oh my god!” He could hear his dad's whimpering voice from the bathroom door, “I remember me and your Mother’s prom night, it all went well until I accidentally drove our car into the school’s flagpole. But we did have our slow dance at the nurses office!” He gushed.
The purple haired man rolled his eyes playfully as he exited the bathroom, he looked at his watch, right on the dot. He have his suit, face, and hair fixed and it’s just about time for Foop to arrive-
*BEEP!!!*
Well, that didn’t take long.
“He’s here! Oh my god he’s here!” He started to panic, he took a deep breath, “Okay, calm down calm down..”
He went to open the door and was greeted by his partner, who just wore a suit similar to his,“Hey! Are you ready to go?”
The anti fairy nodded and they both walked to the limousine, which was probably stolen.
“Hold on a minute, muchachos!” Cosmo yelled, “You’re not going anywhere” he pulled a camera from his who-knows-where, “Picture time!”
Poof groaned as he grabbed his boyfriend by the hand and positioned himself by the limo, “Let’s just take the stupid picture and leave, they won’t leave us alone until we do”
The anti fairy shrugged as he pulled him closer, with his hand on the other’s waist. Once Cosmo and Wanda were satisfied they gave them a tearful goodbye and went back inside, the couple entered the possibly stolen vehicle and sat down, getting themselves comfortable.
“So, where just gonna hang out with Goldie and Sammy, Dance a little, eat, and go to your house?” Poof asked.
“You know it babe” he winked, “I’ll make sure to make this night the best day of your life”
They giggled as the limo drove away.
———
“Say cheese!!” Cosmo and Wanda said in unison.
The two boys smiled awkwardly at the camera in front of them, behind them was the high school they just graduated from.
“Oh I’m so proud of you two! What are you gonna do now?” Wanda asked.
“Well, I can either go to Fairy World university and pick a major or I can get a job at the school of dentistry that the tooth fairy offers me” He then looked at Foop, “He told me he would not further in education as he’s still thinking on what he will do” he sneakers.
“Oh that’s okay Foop, look at me, I never went to college and I turned out great!” Comos said in glee, making Foop raise a brow.
Wanda rolled her eyes playfully as she spotted two familiar silhouettes, “Hey, isn’t that your friend over there?”
They both turned around to be greeted with the sight of Goldie and Sammy waved at them. They waved the older couple off and went to their friends.
“Hey! So graduation am I right?” Goldie teased, “ah fun memories we had, I remember when me and Sammy took beats on which one of you will confess first, Foop of course did and I got my fifty fairy bucks!”
“Yeah, I basically gave away my whole allowance that day” Sammy grumbled.
“Oh don’t be such a sore loser” She rolled her eyes with a smile, “Anyway, graduation party at Sammy’s house, you all in?”
The young couple agreed while Sammy was just dumbfounded, “What!? Ugh fine, but you guys better not trash my place! My parents would absolutely kill me!”
As the group of friends were laughing and having fun, Cosmo and Wanda looked at them with a smile. They are so proud of their son, despite him being the only fairy baby born in a thousand years he already made friends with other magical creatures! He also managed to soften and eventually stole the heart of the ruthless boy that used to hate him since birth.
They’re so happy for him, things are going good so far.
Oh how they wish things stayed that way.
———
A full year has passed and nothing much has changed, there were some surprising events then and there but life goes as usual. Poof had decided to take a gap year so he
The fairy parents were doing their usual things as their son once again was hanging out with his boyfriend. Though one evening Poof just suddenly entered the house, surprising his parents because he just went out twenty minutes ago, he stormed into his room without saying anything or sparing a glance.
Both parents just looked at eachother.
“What… was that about?”
“I don’t know, he looked upset” the pink haired fairy flew to her son’s door, “Let’s check up on him”
The green haired fairy nodded and followed his wife. Wanda was the first one that knocked at the bedroom door.
“Poof…? Honey, is everything okay?”
Nothing could be heard beyond the door.
“Son? We’re kinda getting worried, do you need anything? Some space? Just say the word” Cosmo said.
Both of them froze when they heard crying. Wanda felt her heart drop, she hadn’t heard her son cry that hard since the day when… Timmy grew up, where they all had to say goodbye before Jorgen wiped his memory of ever meeting them.
“H-He…” The young fairy’s voice croaked out behind the door, “He broke up with me!”
Both of the older fairies gasped at the sudden outburst.
“I-It all happened so fast, we were just cuddling on his couch, he then suddenly asked me if I would like to join him in taking over fairy world! I obviously said no and we started arguing, soon he dropped the bomb that we are through! ” He sobbed, “I thought he changed! I mean he is an anti fairy sure but it could have worked! I loved him, I really did…”
“Oh sweetheart” The female fairy said in sympathy, “We’ll give you some space until you’re ready, if you need anything then don’t hesitate to call out to us”
Before they turned around however, they heard a soft ‘click’ and the door creaked open, obviously magic was used as there were sparkles surrounding the doorknob.
“You can come in…” he sniffed.
Both of them didn’t waste a second to barge in and hug their son, who was flopped in bed face down. They both went to his side and comforted him with a big group hug.
It made Poof feel a little better, but the heaviness in his heart didn’t go away.
———
“Is everything packed?”
“Yep! I got our towels, toothpaste, and shampoo!”
“Cosmo! That’s our bathroom stuff! Where’s our clothes!?”
“Oh! Uh… I forgot”
“Well… now that I think about it, I think I forgot to pack our winter gear” she lightly giggled, she waved her wand and immediately their clothes and things were flying to their two big suitcases. Once they were done they looked over at their son on the couch, who was eating ice cream watching Tv, not paying attention as his parents were getting ready for their ten thousand year vacation.
Cosmo and Wanda suggested that Poof should take a year gap as maybe going from high school to even more school after a very painful breakup isn’t the best idea. At first the young fairy couldn’t even leave his room unless he went to the bathroom, after a while he started to come out more and talk to his parents and his equally sympathetic two friends. Right now he isn’t completely healed but he’s getting there.
“Hey honey? You know we’re going away for a pretty long time, like who knows when we’re getting back! Are you sure you don’t want to come with us? It might help you get over him” Wanda said with a scowl, “You can leave at any time in the trip, since you’re an adult now you can do whatever you want. You have freedom now Poof, and we'll support you no matter what life path you choose”
Poof just looked at him with a tired smile, he’s always been tired these days, “No but thanks guys, I want some time to myself and make my own decisions soon after I’m in a good headspace. Besides you guys seem to be better off enjoying your retirement alone, I love my brother but he sure was a handful”
“You got that right, but no matter how much of a handful he is, we still love him, we love both of you” Wanda smiled in nostalgia.
The young fairy nodded in agreement and continued “Plus I’m feeling a lot better, once grandpa found out about the breakup he messed up Foop real good” he giggled, “Never mess with a mob’s family”
“Anyway, I think the fairy bus is coming!” He pointed to the window, where a stop sign was right across from their house and the bus was floating to it.
“Oh we’re gonna be late!” Cosmo screamed, but not before hugging his son one last time, “oh I’m gonna miss you!!” His eyes started to water.
Wanda started to tear up as well, “Oh I’m gonna miss my baby too!” she hugged her son as well.
“Yeah yeah” Poof hugged his parents tight, “Come on guys the bus is almost here”
They all separated and said their last goodbyes. Poof is happy that his parents are finally taking their well deserved break and a retirement after being godparents for who knows how long.
He can take as long as he wants, but it wouldn’t hurt to start planning for his future early now that a relationship isn’t holding him back.
———
Some years later
Poof, now named Peri, was now doing good in life. After some time to himself he decided to just go into fairy godparent academy and just get into the family business. Sure he could have been a dentist or he could have been a fairy doctor, but the thought of being a godparent just felt right to him. Who knows, maybe he’ll get a super cool godkid like his big brother.
Oh how wrong he was.
His first godkid, Dev Dimmadome was…. How could he say it nicely? Quite the trouble maker. Now don't get him wrong, he feels really bad for the kid as he has one of the most shittiest father’s out there and he does care for him, but he just couldn’t bear it any longer. It was one thing for Dev to dislike him and ignore him, but enjoying the presence of the man who broke his heart more than his own definitely hurts. All because he didn’t want to break any of the da rules so he couldn’t be taken away from Dev, who clearly needed someone in his life that actually cares for him.
Yeah he almost died that day, magical backup can actually be deadly and kill a fairy godparent, who would have thought? Dev couldn’t know that as he wasn’t told about it prior to the attack on fairy world, but Irep did.
He tried to kill him.
It didn’t matter if he was also at risk of dying, he wanted to end him and the people he loves. He also almost killed his parents, something that would definitely make Peri out for blood if Jorgen didn’t step in.
That's all he ever wanted huh? To destroy him, that is all he ever wanted ever since he was born. Did he ever love him? Was the time they spent together even real?
Was he stupid to think that a fairy and anti fairy could work?
Maybe it’s possible, just not with them.
A knock on the door made Peri jolt his head from his pillow, it wasn’t from his bedroom door but the apartment entrance. He waited a few moments for one of his parents to answer since he’s not in the mood to do it himself.
He heard footsteps walking toward the door, most likely it was his father. He opened the door, and he fell out of his bed after unexpectedly hearing a very loud bang.
“The hell??”
He got up and only opened his door a bit to hear what the hell was going on. Through the small gap he could make out his father’s voice along with his mothers and… a third voice?
“WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING HERE!? GET OUT OF MY HOUSE!”
“Honey please!”
“H-hold on n-now…!”
Peri’s eyes widened, that voice, is he…!?
“YOU THINK I WOULD LET YOU IN AFTER WHAT YOU DID TO MY SON!? YOU MANAGED TO ESCAPE MY GRASP LAST TIME BECAUSE BIG DADDY HANDLED YOU, BUT IF YOU DON’T LEAVE RIGHT NOW I'M GONNA-!!!”
“Cosmo!!” Peri could hear his mother struggling to possibly keep his dad from tearing the anti fairy apart. “Dear please calm down, you’ll alert the neighbors!”
Her voice then shifted into a more dark tone, “You young man better leave!”
There was a slight pause before the door closed, the footsteps then made its way towards his parents room.
Peri guessed that Wanda took Cosmo to their room for him to cool off. He thought to himself, why the hell did Irep show up? To make fun of him? To taunt him even more? He already lost the battle of one of his stupid attempts at taking over fairy world, does he really want his ass kicked again?
Peri quietly left his room and tiptoed to his parents bedroom. He heard talking behind the door as he moved closer, he leaned in the door to hear clearly.
“… how dare he come to this house and ask to see him after everything he put him through? He dumped him over his stupid evil plans, took his job from him and made his godchild turn against him, he almost killed him which was a stupid thing to do considering he’s his anti fairy counterpart!”
A slight sniff was heard, sounding like his dad was crying.
“When I held him in my arms when I thought he was dying, all I could think about was the first time I held him in my arms after I gave birth to him. I didn’t want to lose our son Wanda, not in the hands of his bastard of an ex and his OWN godkid”
“Oh honey, me too” Wanda sniffed as she hugged her husband.
Sensing that his parents were done talking, he quietly tiptoed back to his room.
It was nighttime when Peri quietly left his room and to the door, sure he really didn’t need to sneak off when he could just magically teleport but he figured it might make too much noise and wake up his parents.
As soon as he was in the halls of the apartment he raised his wand to poof himself out of Dimmadelphia and went to the last place where he truly felt happy.
Dimmsdale.
The place that always had a place in his heart, the last time he was here was when his ex surprised him during one of their dates. He teleported exactly where Irep had taken him back when they were younger, as much as an ass he is, it was sweet of him to do that for him as prior to the date, he was nervous on coming back here in fear that he would get sad and depressed.
After the break up, he started to come here more often to relax and clear his mind. At times, he does get sad, not because of his memories with his parents and god brother but with…
Peri shook his head. Nope, not crying again, he had enough of crying.
…
Ok he lied.
He could help but to let out some tears, he doesn’t want to feel bad over some stupid breakup over some stupid boy, but that same boy was his whole world since forever.
The young purple haired fairy gently sat down in the grass. His hands brushed over the green grass, as if by instinct he would feel the fabric of a picnic blanket.
He sighed as he retracted his hands and stared at the bright city ahead of him, beautiful as always. Maybe soon he can move here someday, maybe find a cute fairy from fairy world, or maybe even a pixie, or maybe a-
His ears perked up as he heard a rustling noise coming from a nearby bush. Thinking it was some type of earth wildlife like a bear or moose, he hastily got up and shot up his wand.
Only for Irep to walk out behind the bush with his hands up.
Peri’s eyes widened, “Wha-!? What the hell are you doing here? Did you follow me?” He angrily said.
“I mean, yeah? I tried going to your house to talk to you but your dad answered…”
“Oh and why do you think I would want to talk to you?” Peri sneered as he kept his wand in place.
“Oh come on babe” peri let out a growl, “Cotton puff” another growl.
Irep sighed as he moved a bit closer, Peri tensed.
“Look I just wanted to say I’m sorry for … well everything”
“Oh so now you wanna apologize after things didn’t go your way? After you almost killed my parents, took my godchild, and almost killed me! You think I would just forgive you after everything!!??” Peri yelled.
“Your right,” Irep replied, looking down “Back then, Anti fairy world was pissed at me that I was doing anything “evil” anymore and blah blah blah, all because I was dating you! They threatened me that if I didn't cause enough mischief or evil I would be kicked out of anti fairy world! At the time the only logical thing to resolve that issue was for you to join me at the dark side, I- I was stupid to think you would actually say yes…”
“Is that all you have to say?” Peri huffed, turning around to face the view.
Irep felt his ears droop, he looked at the ground in shame, “I’m… sorry”
Peri looked down, his eyes frowned.
“…”
They both stayed silent, Peri hoped that Irep would just leave him alone, he doesn’t want to be dealing with this shit right now. He heard a long sigh behind him before he heard a *poof* sound. Turning back around, he saw that Irep was gone.
He sighed as he sat back down, a tear rolled down his cheek as he stared forward.
Maybe in another world, they could be happy together.
