My World(s)? She-ra Fanfic AdoraxReader And A Certain Kitty

98- Save Our Human

Adora's PoV

"So?.... You really have never been outside of the Fright Zone before?.... like never?" (AC/N) asks with curiosity. Picking up a cook from the plate we sneaked from the kitchen. This became our night routine, we would go to the kitchen and take something to eat and then smuggled it into her room and sit down on her balcony to talk almost all night

I knew this meant a lot to her, we had been through a lot the last couple months after I joined the rebellion and just to have some time where we could, you know, be ourselves without any pressure or expectations was everything we needed, especially me

I mean, yeah! I was a rebellion fighter now but I could still feel the people looking at me, waiting for me to sell them to the Horde, waiting for me to betray them. Sure! Everybody LOVES She-ra but never trusted Adora... Only Glimmer and Bow did, and of course (AC/N).... Especially (AC/N). She never, not once, doubted me or thought I was bad and that was all I needed to get through the day. She believed in me and I couldn't find the words to explain to her how much it meant to me

Just knowing she trusted me, Adora me, was enough to get me going and for that I'm going to be grateful for the rest of my life. I promised myself I would always be here, on this balcony whenever she needed to talk or just sit down and relax; and to be honest it was always a real joy spending time with her

"No... We weren't allow to leave the perimeters..." I say, also getting a cooking. Looking up at her leaning on the bastulers of the balcony and me on the wall in front, the plate with delicious sweets in the middle

"....They said it was dangerous, deadly creatures in the Whispering Woods and...." I stop as I realized what I was going to say next. I felt embarrassed so I look down at cookie and play with it

".....Blood thirsty princesses" I whisper embarrassed. I thought this would get a sad reaction from her but it didn't, instead she laughs amusingly and it was such a beautiful genuine laugh

"Well, at least they were right about the dangerous creatures...." she playfully teases which makes me look back at her and I couldn't help but blush at the soft smile she was giving me

"....Because damn it! we've fought like 10 already and you've been here not more than a couple of months" she giggles at her own joke. This made me laugh with her till this well known guilty feeling hits back

"I should've known...." I breathe out, painfully looking away and playing with my fingers, returning the cookie to the plate

"...They were lying in my face and I.." I continue but when her hands gently took mine, brushing her thumb over my knuckles

"Hey, it's not your fault, you were just a kid. Non of this is on you" she sweetly whispers as she fixes herself right in front of me, giving me a gentle tight reassuring grip

"But it is! I am...." I stop before correcting myself

"....I was part of them, I followed their rules. I was going to attack Thaymor, that was going to be MY first mission as Force Captain!" I was drowning in my guilt. I really hate this feeling, this hopelessness and manipulation. I hated the way they lied to me my whole life. It made me feel weak and pathetic. The fact that I didn't realize it sooner, I was right there, I should've known

"Adora....." (AC/N)'s gentle and worry voice gets me out of my thoughts

"....Don't beat yourself with what could've happened because it didn't...." her finger sweetly caress my knuckles again

".....You never went on that mission and you never attacked Thaymor...." she remarks with a soft small smile

"....And as for the following their rules...." she looks deep into my eyes before continuing
