A/N: This suddenly came to me as I was trying to sleep, so I decided to write it down. The song by Katy Perry helped put me in the mood too.
Miranda was sitting in her study room looking over The Book when she realized the room’s temperature had chilled considerably. Her breaths came out in puffs of warm air and she could feel the hair on her back stand. She knew her lover had come to visit her.
“You’re here…” Miranda whispered out in a voice that was hoarse with emotion.
“Well, you know what day today is…”
The voice that had always haunted her dreams answered her.
The voice of the only women she had fallen in love with.
The voice of the person she missed terribly.
The rich voice that could always warm her heart.
The voice that was now only a distant memory.
In front of Miranda stood Andrea Sach as she last saw her, wearing a green turtle neck sweater with a leather jacket and a black pair of Levi’s jeans.
‘I’ve missed you, so, so much. I can never forgive myself for what happened.”
Andrea smiled sadly at the older woman and walked towards Miranda. When she was within an arms width away from her lover, she stopped. Miranda had to stop herself from reaching out to hold Andrea, she wanted to feel the younger woman again but she knew it wasn’t possible.
“What happened what not your fault. You know that.”
“If only I looked across the road before I left you, this wouldn’t have happened…”
“You never could take your eyes off me…” Andrea teased softly.
Miranda could not hold back the sob that had threatened to spill out of her; neither could she stop the tears that were freely flowing down her cheeks.
“God, Andrea…”
“I just want you to be happy Miranda. “
“How can I? When you’re not by my side? I love you Andrea and I miss you so much.”
Andrea shook her head as she smiled sadly at her lover’s confession.
“If I had to do this again, you know I would. I love you too Mira.”
The two women gazed into each other’s eyes, seeing the love that they had for each other shinning brightly.
The moment was broken when there were noises coming from the main door. Two shrilly voices called out for their mother and a harassed voice telling them off.
“The twins are home and calling for you Miranda.”
“Can’t you stay a bit longer, they miss you too…”
“My time here is short, I’ve got to go. I’m sorry.”
Andrea bent down and gave a quick kiss to Miranda’s lips. Miranda could swear she felt the warmth of the lips she sorely missed. When she looked back up to Andrea’s face, she beamed the love she saw there.
“I’ll try to be back next year.”
“I can’t wait till then.”
“Live for me Miranda. “
“I will. I’ll dedicate every day for you.”
Andrea walked out the room and disappeared in a shimmer of light just as the twins entered the room followed by Emily carrying two bags full of candy. The twins noticed the streaks of tears and stopped in their tracks.
“She just left.”
Miranda smiled as tears flowed down her cheeks. The twins ran up to her and enveloped her in a warm hug.
If any of the paparazzi saw this they would be stunned, who knew the Ice Queen had a heart? Miranda Priestly had never shed a tear since the death of her lover a year ago and continuing her work as the fashion queen as usual.
10 years later…
Miranda awoke from her slumber when she felt a kiss on her forehead. She smiled brightly when she realized who had kissed her.
“Hey there sleepyhead.”
“Andrea…” Her voice was husky from sleep.
“Did you have any good dreams?”
“I did. I was remembering the day you confessed your love for me, you were rambling.”
Andrea blushed as she remembered her former self.
“I was very nervous; you were staring so intently at me.”
Miranda smiled as she took in the face of the women she loved and caressed Andrea’s cheeks with her fingers.
“I waited so long to touch you again.”
“Here I am, welcome home.”
“I’m home.”
Miranda kissed Andrea passionately as she envelopes her in a tight embrace.
“I’ll never leave you again.”
