Romancing the Princess of Hearts || Chapter 1: Same Old Feeling

Chapter 2 ->

Pairing: Bridget (Descendants) X Reader

Summary: Ever since you’ve been transferred to The Merlin Academy you’ve had a crush on the Princess of Wonderland herself, who you quickly became best friends with.

Of course, she doesn’t know and you weren’t brave enough to tell her either… but how much time could you keep such feelings to yourself?

Word count: 1856

Warnings: None, just straight up fluff!!! (Bc I live laugh love it)

You were walking around the courtyard of the Merlin Academy, accompanied by your two best friends Bridget and Ella, enjoying the day by chatting with them.

“Alright guys, I need to go now. I did promise that ‘charming’ guy that I was going to help him out with his homework.” Ella said reluctantly, rolling her eyes as if to emphasize her annoyance.

“If by ‘homework’ you mean subtly flirting with one another, then go ahead my dearest friend.” You teased and after seeing Ella’s face reddened you burst out laughing, Bridget joining in.

“We do not–”

“Don’t you dare keep him waiting, El! Go on now!” Bridget commented, waving her hand in a dismissive gesture while sporting a grin of her own, earning a glare from the blue haired.

“So, so, serious… what do you think Charming will say when he sees you like that?” You couldn’t help but annoy her once again. After all, her flustering (to comments about the guy she has absolutely zero feelings for) and a certain princess’s laugh were worth it.

“I’m so done with you two– you especially, Y/n.” Ella remarked, pointing a finger at you. “I’ll see you later!” She said, leaving both you and Bridget on your own.

You were about to make a retort, when you heard from your side that someone cleared their throat.

“So, Y/n, I’ve been wondering… Castlecoming is only a few days away, isn’t it amazing?!” Bridget exclaimed, her face brighting with happiness as a beaming smile broke onto her soft face.

“This will be my first time attending it since I’ve been transferred here, so I’m very curious to see it with my very own eyes.” You teased, to which Bridget blushed slightly. After all, both Bridget and Ella (Bridget mostly) have been talking nonstop about how wonderful and how big of an event this one was. “I still don’t have a date though.”

“Me neither.” Bridget declared with a small frown. “That makes me think however, would you… would you want to go with… me?” She asked, hopeful, though her expressive brown eyes were giving away her own nervousness.

“Are you serious, B?”

“I have never been more serious in my life!” She uttered out, and you couldn’t believe just how adorable she was being.

“Of course! I’d love to go with you!”

“Wonderful!” She said as she wrapped her arms around you in a tight hug, to which you of course returned. “If it means anything…” she pulled out, but still having you by arm’s length. “I–I have been wanting to ask you for quite some time now.”

“And… why’s that?” You asked, looking as her cheeks turned red once more, biting her lower lip.

“I…” Bridget stammered.

“You…?” You tried to get her to answer when suddenly, a distant voice hit your ears. You looked around yourself discreetly, noticing that it was just you and your best friend, surely it was a product of your imagination.

“I love you!” Bridget blurted out, shutting her eyes tightly as if to protect herself from the inevitable rejection that would be coming from you. Or so she thought.

“Y/n.” The voice spoke once more, this time, you could catch it was calling out to you.

You decided to ignore it however, because for sure you couldn’t believe that finally, finally it was happening. Bridget, the princess of Wonderland, who you had have a crush on since your firsts days in the Academy has just told you she loves you! You even thought she was very brave (more than you at least) in choosing to express her feelings.

Truly a dream come true.

Your hands found their ways to Bridget’s cheeks, cupping her dearly face gently. “Could you open your eyes for me, B?”

Reluctantly, Bridget opened them up, her own hands coming up to her face to be atop yours. “Yes…?”

“I… love you too, Bridget.” Your smile reached your ears, noticing the way her face lightened up, it gave you courage to continue. “I have been… for quite some time, actually.”

“Y/n?” That voice. Again. Although this time, you could recognize its sweet yet worrying tone. And wait, were you shaking?

No, you wouldn’t let anyone or anything take away what you have been waiting for as long as you have. Even if this ‘voice’ had a certain resemblance.

“Are you okay, cupcake?” Bridget asked in a worrisome way, lowering both your hands down, still holding them tightly.

“Cupcake?” You blushed at the sudden use of the nickname. Weird. You’ve never heard her call anyone anything like that.

“Perhaps I have the recipe to make you feel better.” She smiled shyly.

“Recipe?”

Bridget smiled once more, before slowly, almost carefully, leaning into you. Her eyes shutting down as the proximity between you kept closing in.

No way this was happening, no way! Bridget not only asked you to be her date to Castlecoming, but has also confessed her love for you and now she wanted to kiss you? In the same day? There’s no way you could be this lucky.

There’s no way this is real.

“Y/n!”

Your eyes opened up quickly, perhaps too quickly as now the brightness of the room hit you hard. The hands that were positioned on your shoulders letting go.

“Finally! Oh, are you alright? I’ve never seen you sleep so soundly!” A sweet-toned worriedly voice asked. Except, this was not any sweet-toned voice this was the voice.

“Bridget?!” Your brain finally was starting to wake up as you took a look around your surroundings in a still somewhat sleepy state and sure enough, you were in your room, in your bed and no one other than the Princess of Wonderland herself was hovering over you. But what was Bridget doing here? “W–What are you doing here? And how did you get in? You’ve seen me sleep before?!”

The pink voluminous haired girl’s cheeks reddened at your questions, before standing up to give you some space. “W–Well… we are supposed to go together to professor Merlin’s class, but you weren’t answering the door!” She defended herself with a pout. It was true though, since both you, her and Ella got to share this class together, you decided to just go together as a group. “I was worried sick about you!” She confessed, her words coming out of her mouth in a concerned manner.

But then again, why was Bridget alone waiting for you? If Ella wasn’t here could that mean that…

“Wait… are we… are we running late?!” You cried out, choosing to ignore, or rather said, save her last few words to dwell on another time.

── ⋆⋅ ♡ ⋅⋆ ──

After a few more minutes of you changing into whatever clothes you could find (though Bridget still called your outfit cute), you both finally set off to class.

And it just so happens that Bridget couldn’t keep her hands—or rather said arms to herself as she had to link it with yours. Not that it bothered you in any way, but rather that after growing a massive crush on her and having such a dream, it made you blush.

The classroom door slammed open.

“Oh, fantastic! I was beginning to think you were not going to show up Bridget, Y/n.” Professor Merlin said, turning around from whatever it was that he was doing, smiling kindly. Inevitably, this made you both the center of attention to the rest of the class.

Gods, why did teachers always have to call out their students like that?

An embarrassing blush made its way to your face yet again. What a way to start the day.

Looking to the side of the classroom you spotted Ella sitting with no one other than Prince Charming himself. You made a quick mental note to bother her about it once class ended.

“Good morning, professor!” Bridget greeted, her own cheeks slightly taking in color, quickly moving to the closest desk with you in tow.

“Alright class, now that we’re all here, we can continue on where we left off last week…” Professor Merlin continued on, talking about this certain potion that you really should have paid more attention to.

“Y/n, could you pass me the griffin claw, please? I’ve got to stir this up.” Bridget asked, pointing to it with a smile. Right, thankfully she was here.

You watched as she started to stir the ingredients in the cauldron, and you rapidly grabbed a flask to throw into the mix too.

You gave a quick glance to the girl at your side. “So… are you going to tell me how in the name of Merlin did you break into my room?” You questioned.

“I didn’t break into your room!” Bridget whispered-yelled, but upon seeing your smirk, she knew you weren’t mad at her for it. With a small smile, she looked down as she continued stirring the potion. “And as I already told you, you weren’t answering. I knocked three times even.”

“Hmm…” You squinted your eyes looking at her with a fake suspicion look. “And am I supposed to take that as an answer?”

“Why, of course!” She smiled widely in an innocent manner.

“Sure, sure, keep evading the question all you want but I will find out about it, princess.”

“It was for your own good. Oh! That makes me wonder, were you having a dream– or was it a nightmare? That’s why you couldn’t wake up, right? Were you having a sleep paralysis?!” Bridget rambled on, her face taking in a worried expression.

A sudden ‘shh!’ could be heard from the front as you both turned to look at Professor Merlin giving you a warning look. Or as ‘warning’ as he could, given that he wasn’t that much of a serious teacher and he knew you both were good students.

“What? No, Gods, no.” You laughed slightly at her implications. “Don’t worry about it, B. It was nothing like that.”

Bridget sighed, content to know that at least you weren’t in a bad situation. “So, it was a dream.” She summarized, glancing at your form from the corner of her eyes.

You stayed silent for a few seconds, debating on how much you were going to tell her, because surely you wouldn’t lie to her. Bridget took the opportunity to add a few more ingredients into the cauldron.

“Maybe.”

Is it considered a lie if you’re giving a half averting answer?

“Who’s evading the question now, hmm?” The pink haired smirked.

And Gods, how that smirk made your already fast beating heart want to get out of your ribcage and shout to the entire world how much you loved her.

If only.

Already lost in the beauty of your friend, you failed to notice how one pair of eyes seemed to be looking at you both, rolling her eyes at your– as she had properly phrased it– obvious love-struck staring.

And failed to notice your dear professor coming up.

“We’re done, professor!” Bridget said, loudly enough for you to take in your surroundings. You blinked a few times, looking at your professor with a smile of your own.

A/N: SOOO I wasn’t planning on watching the movie in the first place, but my fyp started flooding with Bridget edits and I fell in love and here we are! 👹👹 her and redcharming saved that movie frfr

I posted the first 2 chapters on ao3 with my user LostInCrushes and I thought why not post it here too? So here we are! I’ll post chapter 2 tomorrow to have it on my tumbrl as well and also I’m working on part 3 right now! Which will most likely be the longest chapter (for now at least) and that’s why it’s taking me the longest to set up SO I APOLOGIZE 😭😭

English is not my first language so feel free to correct any mistake or give me a piece of advice or criticism on my writing style!

Thank you so much for reading!!! 🩷🩷🩷

Romancing the Princess of Hearts || Chapter 2: A Truth Of A Kind

<- Chapter 1 Chapter 3 ->

Pairing: Bridget (Descendants) X Reader

Summary: Ever since you’ve been transferred to The Merlin Academy you’ve had a crush on the Princess of Wonderland herself, who you quickly became best friends with.

Of course, she doesn’t know and you weren’t brave enough to tell her either… but how much time could you keep such feelings to yourself?

Word count: 2446

Warnings: None again but fluff!!!

After one hour of Professor Merlin grading everyone’s job, (to which you and Bridget got an ‘A’) you were finally set free. Not before tidying up your desk, of course.

When both you and Bridget were finished, a sudden sound from the back of the class caught your ears. You took the opportunity to look behind you and saw exactly what you were hoping for: Ella giggling at something Charming was saying just a few feet away, close to the classroom’s door.

“Hey, B.” You nudged her softly, a teasing smile on your face as Bridget’s curious eyes settled on you before following the direction of what caught your attention. “Are you seeing what I’m seeing?” You whispered.

“No. Way.” Bridget gasped, a hand coming up to her mouth to shield her snicker, the sound blessing your ears.

You continued watching (spying) on for a few more seconds, before deciding to break up the party. You grabbed Bridget’s hand, totally missing out on how her cheeks darkened at the unexpected contact, but she nonetheless, took advantage of it and intertwined your hand with hers and so, you headed out to your friend.

“I’ll see you later then,” you barely heard Charming saying, just as he was leaving. He saw you both however and waved his hand is a friendly manner, to which you waved back.

Ella looked behind herself, to see both her best friends that she kind of expected would still be lingering in the classroom. “Well, well… look who finally decided to show up to class.” She said with a small teasing smile, purposefully starting the conversation to try and not make it about what she was thinking you might turn it into.

Although, upon seeing both of your smiles, she realized she never stood a chance.

“And look who finally decided to start flirting back to the prince!” You exclaimed, holding out your other hand up for Bridget to high five, to which she did with a grin.

“You must tell us what was making you so giddy!” The pink haired followed you up, bitting her bottom lip to try and hide her beaming smile, failing to do so. She was happy after all that her very first friend was finally opening up to no one other than a prince. And a charming one. “Oh, I’m so happy for you, El! It was about time, really.”

“Please let us be your bridesmaids at the wedding.” You said in mocked excitement.

“Are you guys done?” Ella questioned, trying her best to look irritated but the slight red tint in her cheeks gave her away.

She started walking away, out of the classroom, knowing you both were going to follow. You briefly looked at Bridget with a teasing smirk, she returning one with a scrunch of her nose (which totally did not made your insides falter for a second) and follow, you did.

“So… do you want to talk about it?” Bridget asked with a hopeful smile, positioning herself at Ella’s right side, while you went to her left.

“There’s nothing to talk about.” Ella said, seemingly disinterested. She expected a quick retort coming from both her friends, but instead she was met with silence. She glanced to both her sides and caught you and Bridget looking at her with knowing smiles. She sighed. “Perhaps he… might have asked me to go to… Castlecoming with him.”

Ella’s mind was rushing through all the different scenarios of how her best friends’ reaction could be upon hearing such news, like hearing both your loudest screams and never ending teasing, but she was not prepared however, when both you and Bridget decided to engulf her in the biggest hug possible, accompanied with spins and mini jumps of happiness.

You were certain your little act was attracting attention, but you didn’t care. One of your best friends was going to go the most important event in the school with a prince!

Ella however, did care. “Okay, okay!” She giggled, finally managing to get you to somewhat calm down.

“Oh, I’m so happy for you, Ella!” Bridget exclaimed with the biggest smile on her face, hugging her best friend once more– though a shorter hug this time.

“I still can’t believe you even told us!” You said, giving your friend a genuine smile. You were happy for her, especially because of her original desire to not assist the event in the first place. “So, all it took for you to want to go is for your dearest prince to finally, properly ask?”

Ella wasted no time. “Perhaps you could properly ask to your dearest princess, too!” Ella retorted, feigning innocence.

“Princess?” Bridget questioned a bit dumbfounded.

You completely played it off though (or in Ella’s eyes tried) by laughing at her comment. “Oh, El, you’re so funny, truly the funniest person I know.”

On the inside however, you wanted to drown in the Enchanted Lake and might as well bring Ella too. Not being dramatic at all.

“That’s why we’re friends, Y/n!” She exclaimed, continuing with her innocent act. “Oh that reminds me, weren’t you going to bake some special cupcakes today, B?” Ella looked at her friend with a knowing look.

The pink haired princess blushed slightly at her implications, truly catching her off guard, but still smiled. You noticed though that it wasn’t as genuine. “Y–You’re right! I need to go!” She stammered, before doing a curtsy and running down the Merlin Academy halls.

You looked at Bridget’s departing figure with slight concern, you’ll ask if she’s okay later on.

After she was out of your sight, however, you turned to your remaining friend, annoyed. “You completely outed me, Ella!” You said in exasperation.

Ella was the only person who was aware of your crush on the Princess of Wonderland, at least the only one you told about it. Her knowing was both a blessing, since you could talk to someone about it and a curse, because sometimes she’d say or do something with the hopes of making you both realize how you truly felt about each other. Truly, she didn’t have any ill intentions and in her defense, you especially, liked to tease her with her unofficial crush.

Ella grabbed your hands and gave them a squeeze. “If anything I’m helping you, Y/n.” Ella smiled an apologetic smile. “You see, as someone once told me, ‘only staring will get you nowhere’.” She uttered the words you once told her.

“That was different. It was so obvious that you and Charming liked each other, everyone in the school knew!” You defended yourself. “Now she’s going to think I want to go to Castlecoming with someone else.” You sighed and looked down at your joined hands.

Ella squeezed them once more, making you look up at her to find a knowing look plastered on her features. “And what makes you think it’s not obvious that you and Bridget like one another?” You were about to protest, saying something along the lines that Bridget did not like you like that, but your blue haired friend beat you to it. “Besides, this could be a good opportunity to ask her. You saw how she reacted, doesn’t that give you any ideas?” She questioned.

“You have to be mad if you think that that means she likes me back.” You chortled. “Wait– did you unintentionally confess to me that you like Prince Charming?”

“I mean… he is nice.”

“And gorgeous.” You added with a small teasing smirk. You both laughed it off as you continued walking. “You know, both you and him appeared in my dream this morning– well you mentioned him, but still.”

“So that’s why you didn’t wake up? Must have been a hell of a dream if it kept you on bed for so long.” She teased.

“Pfft, It wasn’t that long! Also, Bridget woke me up– and by the way, were you with her?”

“What makes you ask?”

“Somehow she opened my door. The thing is, I can’t see her invading someone’s privacy in that way, she’s a goody-two-shoes basically. And, she didn’t want to tell me how she did it.”

“Well…”

─── ⋆⋅ ♡ ⋅⋆ ───

The Princess of Wonderland and her friend Ella were walking down the hallway of the Merlin Academy, said princess smiling in anticipation as they reached the numbered door belonging to their friend’s bedroom.

She knocked. “Y/n! We’re here!” She said, already picturing your sleepy but adorable face you oh so wore in the mornings.

She waited for a few seconds, but found herself surprised when no sound came from the insides of the room. Absolutely nothing.

She knocked once more. “Y/n! It’s me and El! Are you awake?” She questioned once more, only to be left to silence again.

Bridget decided to knock one last time. “Y/n? Are you alright?” She asked a little louder.

This time, Ella banged on the door, for the sake of the rest of the students not as loudly as she would have wanted, seeing as Bridget’s soft knocks were not helping. “Y/n!” She said, looking with caution at the still unopened door.

Ella stopped and thought for a moment. It was a strange occurrence, to say the least. After all, you never made them wait this long. And the fact that not even a muffled ‘I’m coming’ or anything regarding the fact that you were there, safe and sane, was enough to make the blue haired concerned. Were you even in the room?

“Ella, do you think something happened to her?!” Bridget exclaimed, looking at her friend with worried eyes. “She never takes this much time, something must have happened!” She gasped, covering her mouth with her hands.

“B, for all we know she could be perfectly fine, sleeping.” She replied, trying to calm her nervous friend. Bridget was right though.

“I’m going to get a professor.”

But before the pink haired princess could get away, Ella grabbed her wrist to keep her in place. Bridget looked at her with a surprised look.

“We’re going to waste time.” Ella said and immediately got an idea and set herself to work, kneeling in front of the door. “I’ll open it.”

“What? B–But we’d be intruding, Ella! I don’t want to break a basic school policy.” She bit her lip in a worrisome manner.

“Any professor would be intruding if they do it too.” Ella said, rummaging through her dress pockets.

“But they are allowed to! Especially in these kind of situations!”

“Well what is more important then, knowing that Y/n is fine or just a school rule?” She retorted, finally having found what she had been looking for. A hairpin.

“Y/n, of course! But–“

“I’ll be the one doing it, not you. So if anyone asks, you just don’t say anything, alright?”

Bridget exhaled, defeated. “Alright. Thank you, El.”

“No worries.” She was quick to put the hairpin in the key way and with practiced movements managed to open it with a ‘click’. “She would have done the same, anyways.” She added, standing up.

And with that Bridget couldn’t agree more. She was truly happy and felt undeserving of having not only one but two amazing best friends. Even if she had hopes that a certain one would become more than just friends.

The thought quickly made her blush and she shook her head to compose herself.

“How did you do that?” Bridget asked in slight amazement.

“How do you think I manage to live with my step-mother and sisters?” Ella replied with a cheeky smile, to which Bridget hummed in a share sentiment.

They looked at each other briefly before Ella opened the door slowly, in opposition to Bridget’s complaints, just in case someone else was in there.

They were relieved to find however, just you in your bed.

Bridget was quick to leave her friend’s side to go to yours, placing two of her fingers to the side of your exposed neck. “She’s alive!” She whispered, a smile plastering her soft features. “Oh, I’m so glad.” She breathed out, looking over your relaxed face with a tender look.

Ella looked at her friends with a knowing look from a distance. She wondered what would be the look on your face if you knew that Bridget was looming very closely in front of you. Perhaps your cheeks would match hers.

“You can go El, we’ll catch up in a minute.” Bridget said in a low voice, nodding her head with a grin at Ella’s unsure expression.

“Alright, don’t take too long.” She replied back in the same tone. “If sleeping beauty doesn’t wake up, perhaps a kiss could do the trick.” She couldn’t help but tease her friend, also knowing of her crush on you.

Bridget looked at her with a reddish face, her mouth agape as she tried to think of a comeback, yet came with none. She was truly rendered speechless.

Ella took the opportunity to make leave, leaving both her friends alone. She knew you were in good hands.

─── ⋆⋅ ♡ ⋅⋆ ───

Ella tried not to laugh at your disbelieved face, although she did omit a few things that might have happened, shortening her side of the story, but was content with herself that you seemed to have your mind set on one thing and one thing only.

“Wow.”

Because certainly you could believe that Ella was the one to open your room’s door but for Bridget to somewhat agree to it? Truly, you didn’t know she had it in her.

“Exactly.”

“Honestly, I can’t believe it.”

“I guess she really wanted to make sure you were okay, how important must you be to her.” She joked light-heartedly.

Though if you asked her, she wouldn’t be so sure if she was joking herself. She knew after all of Bridget’ soft spot for you that seemed to be getting softer every passing day.

“Ha-ha-ha.” You looked at her with your most serious face, to which in response, she slapped your shoulder lightly with a chuckle.

“Now that you know the truth, I will ask you to not say anything to her on your way to her.”

“My way to her?”

“Duh, she might need help with her cupcakes.”

“And you’re not coming with me because…?”

“Well, I… need to look for a dress.”

“Oh, but of course! Don’t let me keep you waiting… Ella Charming.” You said playfully, to which she grabbed your shoulders to turn you around (and also as a way to keep her darkened cheeks hidden) and push you with not much strength, making you laugh at her antics.

“You better not keep your date waiting.”

Wait, date?
