Chapter Text
The week was an eventful one.
The glares that she didn't know she was receiving stopped, and many offered their sympathies about what Boscha did.
Boscha, she has never hated someone as much as she hates her.
She celebrated when the news came out. Boscha has been expelled from Hexside.
Expelling a student is something that Principal Bump will try his dam hardest to avoid. As expelling not only means that the student has no school, the student has no track, and therefore is not going to join any coven, and unless you are as skilled as Eda, that won't end well for you. That being said, Principal Bump really had no other choice on the matter. Boscha took it too far this time.
Usually Amity would be horrified, but if it was any other student, not the one that poisoned her.
But of Boscha thinks that all she has to face is that, she is in for a rude surprise. Her parents are already working on pressing charges. Her mother is happy that she finally got to shut up Boscha's mother, honestly if she hates her so much, why did she made them friends ?
In fact, Em and Ed told their parents a little lie, that Luz was the one that found out of the potion and got the cure to them. Mostly because she said their reputation and helped them defeat Boscha's families, Luz go their parent's approval. Something she never expected but was overjoyed.
That's if she can actually be with her.
Em and Luz still talked a lot, but as friends, her sister told her clearly, she has to take this chance.
There is no more backing out. She has to confess, and she will.
If she gets rejected then so be it, but if she manages to get her, then she'll be the happiest in the world.
So when school ended on Friday, she knew what she had to do.
Luz hated being on a cast, but it was her own dam fault.
She got curious and disobeyed Eda's instructions, and it got her foot broken.
There is something ironic, but she can't put her foot on that. Non pun intended.
Well, she has all of the time in the world to think about it, this cast is not going off, no adventures in the weekend.
"Yo kid, it's me, can I come in ?"
"Yes Eda."
Eda came in her room.
"Hey."
"Hey."
"So, listen kid, I have been meaning to talk to you, how are you doing with the whole Amity potion thing."
"I'm fine. I do wonder how she is handling it."
"They said she was pissed and shaken when she got out of the potion. She punched Boscha in the face."
"I kinda want to do that."
"I got a call from Bumpy, she got expelled. And man even I didn't get expelled. Although the kid most be panicking, being expelled in here, it's not good at all."
"Why is it so bad, I bet that is not like in the human world."
"Simple. If you aren't in school, you aren't in a track, and if you aren't in a track, you won't join a coven, and if you don't join a coven, and aren't as awesome as me, then you get petrified."
"Oh."
Part of Luz did feel sorry for Boscha, she can't imagine what she must be thinking. But the other part, she felt that she really deserved that.
"But that's enough about the actual prick, she won't be bothering you anymore. What we need to talk is about the other, the one that was a victim all the time."
"Amity ?"
"Yes. She's on her way right now, to clear the air with you and just....try to fix what Boscha broke."
"Amity......is coming here ?"
"It's your choice to see her. I can tell her to come another day."
"No....let her come in, I want to talk to her."
"Ok Kid. And Luz ?"
"Yes ?"
"I know it's going to be hard, she can't be blamed for what happened all this months, but it was still her face and it hurts. But Kid, you two had something beautiful, if you think you have to let it go, then do it, but my advice, don't ended it."
Amity walked to the Owl House feeling the weight of the world in her shoulders. Well she is carrying the weight of HER world.
She has to try to fix this. In the end it's Luz's decision, but she is going to try.
She took a breath when she saw the Owl House. Here it goes.
She walked to the door and saw the bird.
"Hey Amity !"
"Hey...Hooty, is Luz ...can you ask her if I can ?"
"Oh your sister and Eda letted her know you were coming, come in."
What Amity didn't see was the three eyes following her.
Something that Hooty did see.
Amity greeted Eda and King, and the former pointed her to Luz's room.
"She's waiting for you."
After what seemed an eternity, she was in front of Luz's door.
"Come on Blight, no more backing down."
She knocked the door.
"Luz....it's me, can I come in ?"
"Yeah, come in."
Boscha tried sneaking into the Owl House.
She had to stop that reunion, if Amity and Luz reunite, there is no stopping them from getting together.
"Ok think Boscha, you only have two days before they send you to the reformation center, you are no longer in Hexide, what can I do to stop them from getting together."
She had lost everything already, she lost her status, her friends, the respect of her parents, her school, and even her track. And if she doesn't act, she can loose Amity as well.
Well she kinda already did. There is no way that Amity will go with her unless there is a miracle, but maybe she can open old wounds so that Luz rejects her. She's desperate and she knows it.
"Hello !"
"Ah !"
She turned around to come face to face with Hooty.
"What are you......hey wait a second, you are the one that hurt Luz !"
"I...I....!"
" I can't let this go ! It's revenge time Hoot Hoot !"
With that Hooty trapped Boscha with his body.
"Hey let go off me you bird !"
"And I am going to have my revenge by singing a song that my good friend Spinel thought me."
With that Hooty started playing with Boscha, her magic useless against him.
"That's right I heard the story over and over again, Gee, it's swell to finally meet her other friends !"
Amity entered Luz's room and saw her. The girl of her dreams, looking at her.
"Hey."
"Hey."
"Long time no see I guess. Since that potion took your will."
"Yes, there is a reason why they are illegal after all."
"I see why now."
Awkward silence filled the room.
"Ironic is it ?"
"What ?"
"First you were with the broken foot, and now I am." Luz said.
"Well, if you put it that way, it's kinda ironic I guess."
"Yeah."
Ok, no more denying or waiting. Do it now Blight.
"Luz I am SO sorry."
"Amity, none of that was your fault."
"But it was my face, and I was the stupid one that believed that Boscha really wanted to make amends. I messed up so badly and I hurt you, I hurt my best friend, the one I care so much for, and I didn't even know it, I am so sorry Luz, you have no idea."
Luz carefully got up from her bed, and gave Amity a hug.
"It's ok. It did hurt, but I know it's not your fault, it's all in Boscha. It wasn't you."
Amity held her tighter as she cried, and Luz couldn't help but cry too.
Both girls remained like that for 20 minutes.
"Ok, I think that's enough tears, and I can't stand up for long, can you help me to bed ?"
"Oh sure. Since when do you have a bed ?"
"Eda bought it to me shortly after the potion thing, she didn't want me to sleep in the floor anymore."
"That's good."
Amity gently helped Luz in her bed.
"Thanks."
"It's nothing....so we are cool now ?"
"Yeah, I am not going to end our friendship because if something that Boscha did."
"Friends......Luz there is something else."
"What ?"
"I don't...I mean I want......You remember my note for Grom ?"
"Oh yeah, you never told me who you were going to ask out."
"I taped it back together, and I want you to read it."
"Wait Amity you don't have to tell me, I was messing with you."
"No no, I want you to read it."
Amity gave Luz the note, the latter's eyes opened in shock.
"You wanted to ask me !"
"I did, and I still would want to, if Grom was right now. "
"What ?"
"I love being friends with you Luz, but the truth is, I want to be more ! I see you and you are beautiful, both in the outside, and specially on the inside. You did things for me no one else has done. You cared to know the true Amity Blight and helped me remain that person, and I can't be more grateful. Ever since you showed up my life has been improving more and more. You got threw my parents somehow, and convinced them to allow me, and Ed and Em, to choose our own friends. You got me my best friend, other than you, back. You got me to not only leave that group of jerks behind, but, except for the obvious one, you got them to change too and become genuinely nice and friendly. The list could go on and on and on, there is so much I want to say....but I can say it in one sentence. I love you Luz, I really do."
Luz sat there shocked.
"But who I am kidding, why would you want to...."
Luz interrupted her by kissing her, something she returned as soon as she could.
It lasted for two minutes, the best two minutes in Amity's life.
"I love you too Amity."
"Really ?"
"Yeah, that's why it hurt so much, because for a long time I wanted this ! Or the reason while Em and I, no offense to her, she's great, couldn't make it serious. Because my heart wanted only you."
"Oh, so Luz....will you, you know, be my girlfriend ?"
"Por supuesto que si sere tu novia querida."
"I didn't understand."
"I sad that of course I'll be your girlfriend sweetie."
Amity blushed madly.
"I...."
"AAAAAAAH !"
They turned to the window and saw Hooty "playing" with Boscha. Eda and King laughing.
"Oh, that's right, I heard the story over and over again
Gee, it's swell to finally beat her other friends
Oh, that's right, I heard the story, don't really like how it ends
Gee, it's swell to finally beat her HOOT ! " Hooty sang.
"Hahahahaha, that's so funny." Eda laughed.
"Hey, leave some for me Hooty !" King yelled.
Luz and Amity looked at each other.
And started laughing.
"HAHAHAHAHAHA !"
Their hands didn't let go of one another during that time.
1 month after Amity confessed, things were finally back to good.
Amity was unbanned from the Grudgby games, and made it up to Luz by not only inviting her to all of them, but buying all of the food that she wanted. They saw Willow finally play in her first official games, and boy did she nailed it.
Seeing Hooty playing with Boscha was the last time they saw her. Her parents sent her to the Reformation Center, and fled to another area of the Isles to avoid more humiliation. No one knew how she was doing in that place, or what her now trashed future holds, and no one really cared. Most of the school, both students and teachers, were glad that the big bully is gone. Mrs. Blight was so happy with her rival gone, that she told Amity that she could marry Luz no matter what, when the time came. That was scary, but also relieving at the same time.
Despite now dating Amity, Luz kept her very close friendship with Emira. There is no denying that the elder Blight girl was a big help in the potion nightmare. They still hunged out, and Amity tried to keep her jealousy at bay. But that feeling soon left when Emira met Viney, and fell hard for her. Now Emira has another girlfriend, and there is no more jealousy.
Amity and Luz were close as ever, and the Blight girl refused to take risks when it came to her girlfriend. Even joining her and Eda in, dangerous but extremely fun adventures.
Boscha tried ruining everyone's happiness for her own, but in the end she just ruined hers. But she did succeed in one thing. She wanted Amity to be happy.
And with Luz at her side, Amity is the happiest she has ever been.
