Genie and Hao’s expressions shifted to shocked as Genie asked; “What? No you didn’t-”

“Aye, I did.. When I got’em in the side, I made one of his broken ribs puncture his heart. Ima lucky it didna go through the third layer.. I still had a buncha reconstructin’ ta do on him...I hurt him bad, Genie...I dinna think he’s gonna forgive me..”

Genie instantly wrapped his arms around her as her broken words turned into restrained sobs. The young couple were both angry at themselves instead of each other, which Hao found strange. But Genie smiled to himself at the realization..

‘I guess I won’t have to bow down to Peggy just yet.. As long as they’re not mad at each other, there’s hope..’

As Genie pulled away from the hug, he stared at Skye as he said; “It has been known for years by anyone who looks at you two that you love each other. And I think that you understand the darkness that resides within him better than any of us. He needs to know that now..”

Understanding his meaning, Skye gave Genie a final squeeze, then took off to find her husband. Hao walked over to his master as he watched Skye speed away, a mix of happiness and despondency on his face as she faded. As Hao stopped by his side, Genie sighed before saying; “Do not say it.”

“I won’t say say anything...Do you love her?”

“What happened to not saying anything?” Genie asked with heavy sarcasm.

.....

“I’m not saying, I’m asking. Do you love her?”

Genie stared at the darkened doorway as he replied; “Enough to want her to be happy.”

Hao nodded; “Then it is a pure love, and I shall not speak on it again. But I will ask a final question: does she know that you love her as you do?”

“It makes no difference. I know where her heart lies, and I accept it. Tidas is a good man-”

“Whom just tried to kill his wife,” Hao interjected.

Genie let a grumble escape before answering; “You know that it’s not that simple.”

“I know, I know. It’s just very strange to see you want something for yourself, for Once, and yet you do nothing to obtain in. Especially when you have a very promising opportunity in front of you-”

“That just goes to show how little you know about those two,” Genie’s tone was a bit harsh to start, but he’d softened once he saw Hao tense; “Honestly? I doubt that there is any force, either here or anywhere else, that could separate their hearts. If I’m being completely honest: they were made for each other. Like two halves of a whole.”

Hao stayed silent after that, prompting Genie to comfort him; “Do not worry for your master so. I am more than content with my life. Come! I have not eaten nearly enough today, and I plan to take advantage of Peggy’s cooking while she’s here.”

************

Tidas had stopped off in the kitchens before heading back to their room. He had grabbed a rather large bottle of sake, startling the cooks running about and doing their daily tasks. By the time Skye had gotten there, over half of the bottle was already gone.

He had stripped off his training clothes, and sat down on the edge of the bed, next to his nightstand. He set the bottle down just to pick it back up again with a huff, and pulled out the cork. After he drank down a quarter or so of the sweet, yet strong brew, he threw a pair of loose-fitted sleep pants on. Just in case Peggy popped in.

As soon as Skye saw the bottle, she scoffed, walked over, and took it out of his hand. She could clearly see that he’d been sitting on the edge of the bed, sulking in the darkened room while silently drinking. Only the light from a single candle was casting a large, lumbering shadow against the wall when she’d finally gotten her husband’s attention.

He slurred as he argued about her taking it, but Skye didn’t say a single word. She just sat down next to him, and took a long pull from the bottle herself, which immediately shut him up. After well over ten minutes of sitting quietly together, Skye was the first to speak..

“Ima so sorry that I almost killed ya.. Please dinna be mad with me..”

As a large pang hit his heart, Tidas stared at her wide-eyed; “Mad at you? How could I? -It’s me that You should be mad at.. I tried to kill you!”

“...Then doesn’t that just make us even? I tried ta kill ya first.”

Tidas’ face twisted with irritation; “You weren’t going to kill me. I had plenty of time to heal myself.. But I.....I really was going to kill you, Skye.. How can you stand to be in the same room with me right now?!”

Anger was beginning to cloud Tidas’ already hazy mind when he felt two soft, gentle hands on the sides of his face. Skye had gotten up, and was currently making him look into her eyes. It took Tidas by surprise, so he tried to yank himself away, but Skye wasn’t budging.

Holding him in place, Skye took on an almost motherly tone as she chided him; “Tidas MacArthur, you stop wit yer nonsense right now! Yer me husband, and the love of me life. I’ll always want ta be around you. Even when Ima furious wit’cha, I still want ya near me. So stop wit this bullshit pity party, and show me how much ya love me.”

Tidas stared into his wife’s eyes, and saw nothing but worry and affection for him reflected back. He thought that she would hate him, or at the least, be afraid of him. If not for Genie’s magic and Hao’s quick reflexes, then Tidas would’ve ended her life, but it didn’t seem to matter at all to her that he was capable of it.

At the thought, another wave of guilt and pain washed over Tidas, and he yanked his head away while saying; “I don’t deserve you..”

Skye straightened up and looked down at him with growing irritation; “How do ya not-ya know what? Screw this!”

The next thing Tidas knew, he was on his backside with his wife sitting on top of him. The bottle had dropped, and was slowly leaking, but it didn’t matter to them at all. All that did was that moment..

In the gentle light cast by the fading candle, Tidas saw the unshed tears and desperation in his wife’s eyes as she screamed at him; “Do ya hate me, husband? Is that why yer torturin’ me so?”

Tidas narrowed his eyes; “Don’t be ridiculous. Of course I don’t-”

“Then why are ya sayin’ such things?! All it does is worry and scare me, and ya ken it! Do ya think I Wanted ya ta leave earlier?! Or do ya think I wanted ya ta take me in yer arms, and tell me that ya love me?! That everything was alright, and that ya di-didna hate me fer hurtin’ ya?!”

Skye had sobbed towards the end of her rant, which made Tidas tap into his magic as he sat up. After burning away the rest of the effects of the alcohol and hugging his wife, he leaned back slightly, and said; “I could never, and will never hate you Skye..”

“I love you more than anything in this world. I’m so sorry that you had to feel like that.. I saw your face, and I thought that you were scared of me.”

Leaning back slightly, Skye locked eyes with her husband as they kept their arms around each other; “I could never be scared of you, Tidas. I love you wit everything I am, and that’s never gonna change. Ya say that ya were gonna kill me, but I dinna believe that. I think that if it came down to it, you woulda stopped on yer own.”

Tidas scoffed sardonically as he flopped back on the bed; “Then you have an unrealistic amount of truth in me..”

Skye dragged her hand up his bare chest as she replied; “I think that ya need ta be more realistic about yer capabilities..”

Stopping her hand at his cheek, Skye gently cupped it as she added; “Yer the most trustworthy person I know, and the person that I love most in this world.. I Know ya would’ve stopped, and you’ll never convince me otherwise.”

The pure conviction in her expression made Tidas’ heart leap. He couldn’t wrap his head around the amount of faith that she had in him, and it tugged at his heart.. ‘I can’t explain my faith in her, either.. So I guess we’re both hopeless..’

Tidas propped himself up on his elbow, and reached for his wife’s cheek. She let her arm fall away from his as she leaned into his hand, and took in a breath of relief. The gesture was mundane, but in that moment; Skye was absolutely beautiful to him.

The gentle light made her hair shimmer, and the way that her body slightly slumped to the side highlighted her curves. She was beautiful inside and out, and she loved him with her entire being. As a huge wave of affection began to wash over Tidas, Skye turned to him with the sweetest smile he’d ever seen, and said; “I’ll always trust you wit me life, husband, because without you: I dinna have one.. You are my life.”

Tidas couldn’t hold himself back after that. He sat up and kissed his wife until she was gasping for breath. Once her lips had been thoroughly covered, he moved to her neck and collarbone. Whispering how much he loved her as he did so.

Skye felt like the temperature in the room had shot up twenty degrees in the matter of seconds, so she felt relieved when her husband practically ripped off her shirt. He picked up where he’d left off on her collarbone, and continued downward until he’d reached her valley.

Skye’s skin practically sizzled under her husband’s tender and assiduous attentions. He tenderly worshipped and teased her breasts, then he began to play with her nipples. By the time Tidas had actually reached the lower half of her body, Skye was trembling with her need for him.

She tried to get up and position herself on all-fours, but Tidas had other plans. He sat against the backboard of the bed, and reached out for her. Going along with his pulling, Skye positioned herself above Tidas’ member, facing him.

When she slowly began to slide down his shaft, Tidas gripped the bedsheet like he’d die if he let go. His breathing automatically became labored as he tried to keep his lust in check, and Skye began to slowly move up and down. When she let her head fall back, Tidas gently tweaked one of her nipples to get her attention.

“I want you to keep looking at me.. I want to see how I make you feel..”

His words sent a new jolt of need through her, making Skye pick up her pace slightly. Since he was sitting up against the backboard, their faces were only a few inches away from each other. Every time Skye would start to look away from him, Tidas would slam his hips up to gain her attention.

The look in his eyes was so intense that Skye thought that she might actually catch fire from it. The need, love, and devotion that she saw reflected in Tidas’ eyes was unlike anything she had ever experienced with him before. It was both grounded and desperate at the same time, and it called to her..

“I love you, Tidas..”

Those four breathy words mixed with the utter love he saw on her face sent Tidas over the edge. He laced his fingers through her hair with one hand, and held her across the waist with the other. After pressing her against him and stealing uncountable kisses from her, Tidas let the reins go.

Every time Skye slammed down, Tidas bucked his hips up. She rotated between whimpers and wails of pleasure as she hit one peak, then immediately started to climb to the next. They moved slowly, but so passionately that time seemed to fall away, and only they existed.

Tidas kept whispering how much he loved Skye, and how much she meant to him; all while maintaining eye contact. Both her head and heart felt like they were going to explode from the intensity in his eyes. Instead, she found herself drawn in like a moth to a flame.

She wanted to look away, but it was like they were caught in a trance. A force stronger than anything in the universe pulled them together, and in a moment of pure ecstasy; made them as one. Tidas could literally feel the unending love that Skye held for him, and she his.

During that blissful moment of their union, a connection that had been many years in the making exploded to life. Skye and Tidas had connected on a level almost never realized by humans, and their souls mingled. The Bond that they shared grew tenfold as they reached their peak together, and clung to each other.

Exhausted from the training and stresses of the day, Skye and Tidas didn’t even bother to bathe before climbing underneath the covers, and falling into blissful darkness..
