Title: Honesty Rating: PG Length: 135 Competitor: Baird Round/Fight: 1/D Summary: Their mutual affection is a bit of a surprise.
“Why are you here every day?” he asks, when he finds her in the infirmary again. Life on the front has quieted since the cease fire, but there is still work to be done for the men who have long-term effects from battle.
“I like to watch you work, your grace.”
He smiles, his vanity appeased. Is it wrong to be flattered that such a vibrant girl is interested in his work?
“It’s more than that,” she says, her voice low. “Being with you… lightens my heart.”
Her tone surprises him, and he looks up to see her direct gaze. Her expression is vulnerable, and he realizes that she has put her heart on the line and has shown her true feelings.
“The feeling,” he replies, a new realization dawning on him, “is completely mutual.”
