A Jetra (MJesse X Petra) oneshot cabin scene requested by DaphneBoyden

Jesse's POV

Petra and I entered the cabin and, straightaway, we saw three colored beds, bookshelves, an armor stand, and three item frames below three banners. Immediately, I gravitated over to the bookshelves.

"Remember I used to read all time? Now I barely do."

"Things change." Petra responded back simply as I went over to the armor stand that looked like it had been used as a practice dummy.

"It's like the one we used to have... back at the treehouse. Until someone... you... broke it."

"Uh huh." Petra whispered before starting to sob softly, so I turned to face her.

"Petra? What's wrong?" I asked worriedly.

"N-nothing I was just thinking about this story...about.. puppies it's a really sad story."

"Come on Petra... I know you're lying, what's really wrong?"

"Fine, it's not about puppies... Doesn't this remind you of our friends? We used to hang out in that treehouse all the time, but now we barely talk or see each other and I'm just... left alone again.. Didn't take long for the New Order of the Stone to fall apart did it?" Petra admitted sadly.

"Petra.." I started until she cut me off saying,

"Whatever I know this isn't important right now, let's just find that weapon and get out." Petra responded bluntly before turning to observe the beds and banners and I gazed at her sadly.

"They really cared about each other. Fred wrote that Romeo just wanted to keep them together, more than anything. Isn't that what I've been doing, especially to you? I don't want to cross that line." Petra told me as we finished reading Fred's journal which had contained the "weapon": #potato451.

"You're nothing like the Admin, don't compare yourself to him." I responded while patting her shoulder a little, but she pulled away.

"Even he didn't start out like that it just got... bad." Petra whispered sadly as she went over to the window and gazed out of it.

"I've been thinking a lot about what you said... adventuring is what I'm good at it's who I am, not in Beacontown, but I don't want to leave if it means... losing you..." Petra rubbed the back of her neck nervously as she continued,

"You mean a lot to me, more than anyone else you've been there for me and... *sigh* you're my best friend, Jesse..." I walked up to Petra and said softly,

"We're a team, if you think you're place is out there then so is mine, right next to you..." she sobbed a little before whispering,

"Thank you..." and pulled me into a hug where I said,

"I always knew you were a big ol' softie."

"Ha ha, you never be able to prove it though."

"We'll see." I grinned as I gave her a kiss on the cheek and she kissed me back as we walked out of the cabin, hands holding to go stop Romeo with Fred's weapon.
