Choices
Title: Choices
Pairing: Bianca x Reader
Word Count: 1099
Y/n knew what the cars parked on the street were for. She had recently moved back to her home village in Italy afer running away nearly 20 years ago. Bianca had been the Don's right hand woman, which should have painted a large target on her back, but Y/n knew better than to expect her to be dead.
The Don cared for Bianca better than he had some of his blood. He treated Bianca like his daughter, and for a time, that had been extended to Y/n. She hadn't waited around the village to see what would happen to her after their breakup. More important people had been knocked off for less, and Y/n wasn't going to take those chances.
"Wait outside," Y/n heard Bianca say through the door. It was always cracked or partially open, but when Bianca entered Y/n's store, she shut it completely. The two women stood alone in the establishment staring each other down in silence for several minutes before Y/n spoke up.
"What the hell do you think you are doing here? I have a strict no mafia policy," Y/n told her. Bianca wouldn't have taken such hostility from just anybody, but she believed it was warranted for Y/n. Y/n could have pulled a gun on her, and Bianca wouldn't have put up a fight.
"It's been a long time," Bianca said.
"Not long enough," Y/n scoffed. Bianca crossed her arms over her chest as she stared at Y/n. It had been two decades since their falling out, but nobody had ever held a grudge like Y/n. Bianca cautiously took a step towards the counter that Y/n was standing behind. "Why have you come here, Bianca?"
"Because I wanted to see you. I wanted to make sure that you've been good to yourself in the ways that I wasn't. I've missed you, Y/n." It was rare for Bianca to put her heart on the line like that with any amount of honesty behind it, but Y/n knew that Bianca wasn't trying to pull anything. Still, it was hard to even begin to think about forgiving her. Bianca had made her choice, and Y/n wasn't it.
"I took some time away, but I think I started to undo the harm you had caused," Y/n told her. Bianca's face fell for a moment, but she was quick to hide it.
"You have always been a little cruel," Bianca noted.
"I didn't say that to be mean. I never said or did anything like that to you, and you're a goddamn liar if you say otherwise." Y/n took a step back to try and cool off, but it was difficult with Bianca standing right across from her. Bianca had always been a very heated topic for Y/n, even before they had broken up. Back then, however, all of Y/n's intensity had been her desire and passion for the woman burning hot.
"I know. I made a choice that I am still paying for. If you only let me say one more thing, let it be that it wasn't worth losing you," Bianca said. Y/n clenched her jaw as Bianca's words hit her like a punch to the gut. Twenty years Y/n had waited to hear Bianca say that, but it didn't feel nearly as good as she had hoped it would.
"Get out. Get out!" Y/n shouted. Bianca flinched and complied with Y/n's order. Y/n sat down on the stool behind the counter as she tried to calm her heart. It felt worse to be alone with her feelings and newfound knowledge than it had to be there with Bianca. Y/n grit her teeth and tried to move on, but Bianca's words echoed in the back of her head for weeks with no end in sight.
Y/n felt like she was losing the last shreds of her sanity. It was not an easy decision to go see Bianca after everything, but it was a choice that Y/n felt she had to make. She needed to forgive Bianca and accept whatever that meant for them moving forward. From what Y/n had heard, Bianca had never really even tried to settle down after Y/n left. There had been a good line of lovers that would leave Bianca's little guest house at the villa over the years, but nobody ever stayed more than a couple of nights.
"It's been a long time since I've been here," Y/n said as she walked around the villa with Bianca. The woman had been in the vineyard where the grapes were being harvested. Y/n had been surprised when Bianca welcomed her presence with open arms, especially after how hostile Y/n had been earlier.
"Things have changed for the better. Kristen is a great leader," Bianca said. Their conversation felt safe and casual, but all wrong to Y/n. "I am surprised that you've come all this way. I thought you'd never come back here after what happened."
"You made your own choice that day like I have made a choice today. Bianca, I have spent too long being angry with you for that, and I am done. It's exhausting, and I'd just like to live the rest of my life in peace. So, I came here today to tell you that you are forgiven," Y/n said. Bianca clutched her chest as she looked at Y/n. It was surprising to say the very least.
"Thank you for your forgiveness. I know that wasn't easy for you, and I want you to know that I still hold love for you. I will always hold a special place in my heart for you. You are the first person outside of my family that I have ever truly loved," Bianca admitted. It was the only thing that Y/n had wanted to hear for years. She was overcome with emotions and her next actions were rash to say the least. Y/n stopped walking and turned to grab the collar of Bianca's shirt. Bianca knew what she was going for immediately and pressed forward to close the distance between the two of them.
"This doesn't mean that you are back in my good graces," Y/n said as she broke the kiss. Bianca nodded as she leaned in for another kiss, which Y/n happily granted her.
"I will do everything I can to earn your love back," Bianca promised Y/n.
