Something To Say
Pearl Fey/Trucy Wright
Fluff, Coming Out Story. Trucy POV
“You guys haven’t told Mr. Wright!?”
I can’t blame Athena for being surprised. Pearly and I have told almost everyone. Athena knows, Maya knows, Apollo knows, even Edgeworth and Klavier know about it. I never told Daddy though.
“No,” clarified Pearly, sinking into the couch and biting her nail “we haven’t told Mr. Nick. Trucy doesn’t want to…”
“Is it because he was so anxious over what happened with Ben?” asked Athena. I winced a little hearing that name. I want to forgive Ben for what he did, but I still have trouble looking past him breaking my heart like that…
“I think he’ll be fine,” Athena said, “besides, he knows and trusts Pearly! Wouldn’t he be excited to hear about you two dating?”
“I thought about that but…” To be honest, I don’t know why I want to hide my relationship with Pearly from Daddy. I don’t know how he’d react. He always gets scared whenever I crush on boys, and he was especially overprotective with Ben, but I don’t know how he’d react to me with a girl. Let alone one he’s known since she was 8. I didn’t want to worry him about me being in another relationship, so I just asked Pearly and everyone else not to tell him.
Suddenly, I heard the door open, and in walked Daddy. He looked kind of stressed.
“Mr. Wright! How did the case go?” asked Athena.
“Went well, got the verdict. It was really tough though.” he said, setting his suitcase down and rubbing the bridge of his nose. I stood up and took a deep breath.
“Daddy… we have something to say.”
“We?” Daddy asked. Pearly stood up and stood beside me.
“Yes. W-we do…” she held my shaky, cold hand. The feeling of her warm, controlled hand gently wrapping around mine helped me relax a little bit, but I was still incredibly nervous. Even more so when Daddy noticed it and his expression change.
“Um… Pearly and I… we’re dating…”
I braced myself for his response. I couldn’t even look at him. I was too scared…
… I heard a sigh of relief?
I opened my eyes and saw Daddy smiling.
“Thank goodness… That’s fantastic Trucy!”
“Wh-what??” Pearl seemed just as surprised as I was.
“Pearls, there isn’t anyone I trust with Trucy more than you. I’m relieved you two are together!”
“S-so you aren’t mad?” I asked.
“Of course not!” he said.
“Magnifique,” Athena chimed in, “we should go out and celebrate! Checks on me!” She was out the door before we know it.
“Hahaha. Come along girls!” Daddy gestured us to the door, walking out.
“I’m so glad Mr. Nick approves of us dating.” remarked Pearly.
“I am too,” I replied, “I was so worried he’d have a problem with it!”
“Well, shall we go?” my amazing girlfriend asked. I gave her a quick kiss on the cheek.
