This is the first chapter of my new story. I got the idea for this chapter from the whole "Should Faye and Tobin be married" argument. I personally agree with the majority that says they should get married since it makes more sense than them marrying random people. Both of the people they are in love with marry other people, they deserve eachother in my opinion. Beware my grammar by the way.

Faye: *sighs*

Tobin: Hey Faye. What are you up to?

Faye: Oh! Tobin. I, uh, nothing! Nothing at all!

Tobin: ...You're thinking about Alm again, right?

Faye: Yes, but could you blame me? Alm is just so strong and brave, but kind and soft-spoken too. Why wouldn't I think of him?

Tobin: *mumbles*

Faye: I'm sorry, what was that?

Tobin: I don't get why you see all that in him...

Faye: What?

Tobin: I said I saw the enemy up ahead. Now if you excuse me, I have a battle to get back to.

*Tobin leaves*

Faye: Uh? Wait! Tobin! ...What was that about?

Tobin: *sighs*

Faye: Tobin?

Tobin: GAH! What the- Faye? Geez, you scared me to hell!

Faye: My apologies for that. But why do you sound so sad.

Tobin: Uuuuugh. It's nothing of your concern.

Faye: Please Tobin? I promise I won't laugh or say anything rude.

Tobin: Okay fine. Well, it's just that I noticed how close Gray and Clair are as of late. Can't help but feel jealous, y'know? Not like you have jealousy issues.

Faye: ...Are you kidding? I know EXACTLY it feels to be jealous.

Tobin: Huh?

Faye: I love Alm, but I know his heart and affection belongs to Celica and Celica alone. Remember that I was the only one to realize his feelings for her back when we were kids. Even though it pains me, I've accepted that my feelings would go unrequited.

Tobin: Wow. Compared to my crush on Clair, your dedication to Alm is far stronger than I thought.

Faye: That was the first time I ever told anyone that before. People would just think I was the ditzy, delusional girl with the unhealthy attachment to some guy. ...And I think they're right.

Tobin: Faye don't say that. Sure your crush on Alm is KINDA unhealthy...

Faye: Tobin.

Tobin: BUT, you are also one of the nicest people in Zofia. Remember back then, when we were reckless? You were always there to help us with our injuries. Whenever Kliff burnt himself on accident, you were there. When I shot someone in the rump, you were there. And when Alm and Gray got cuts from practice, you were there. You always put the happiness and wellbeing of others before your own.

Faye: T-Tobin! That's the nicest thing anyone has ever said to me. Thank you!

Tobin: No problem Faye. Just being a friend.

Faye: Well there's an enemy up ahead so I'll see you later!

*Faye leaves*

Tobin: If only I'd seen it sooner...

Tobin: H-hello Faye!

Faye: Tobin. What a pleasant surprise.

Tobin: So how are you doing? That last skirmish did do a number on our army.

Faye: I'm fine. What about you? Any injuries? Bruises? Concussions?

Tobin: Nah I'm fine. So Faye...

Faye: Hm?

Tobin: I was just, er, wondering if you wanted to go for stroll later. Y'know, sightseeing, bakeries, stuff like that!

Faye: That sounds like a great idea. But why the special occasion?

Tobin: W-well it's just that we have plenty of free time since there hasn't been any Rigelian attacks lately. I just thought we could hang out.

Faye: As friends?

Tobin: ...Actually. I was hoping we could hang out... as in a date.

Faye: W-whaaaaa?!

Tobin: Remember when I said all those nice things of you? How you put the wellbeing and happiness of others before your own? Well I know it took me this long to realize it, but I guess I fell head over heels for you. You've got to believe me.

Faye: ...

Tobin: It's fine if you don't want to answer...

Faye: Tobin... you know I will always love Alm right? He's brave, generous, and a natural leader. Those are the traits that I love about him.

Tobin: *sighs* I know.

Faye: BUT! You, Tobin, are sarcastic, funny, and you always try your hardest in every battle we've been in. You always looked out for us back at the village. Those are the traits I love about you.

Tobin: What?! For real? Erm, does that mean we're official?

Faye: I guess you can say that. But keep in mind that I'll always have feelings for Alm.

Tobin: Hehe. I don't mind being your replacement Alm as long as you don't mind being my replacement Clair.

Altered Endings

Faye

Faye returned back to Ram Village and resumed her normal life, but would always rush to the Kingdom's call for help when needed. She eventually became a Cleric for newly combined religion of Duma and Mila. Though she could not get over her feelings for the King, she found happiness in her marriage to Tobin.
