Summary FE7: In the dead of night, will Wil confess his true feelings to the woman he loves?
Author's Notes: Sorry, this isn't my best work… (I haven't even put up my other stories o-0) I'm a fan of OneShots, and I love the couple Wil and Rebecca. I also love humour. I hope you enjoy this… I'd prefer no really hurtful criticism, I know I'm not the best. ;;
The sky's light had faded on the horizon, the moon's light bounced off the luminous clouds. Eliwood's Battalion had made camp for the night and were expected to get up bright an early. Many slept, though some were still awake, poking at the dying embers of their campfire.
The forest near the camp was strangely thin, most trees dying or dead; their leaves were nowhere in sight. Knotted roots collided with earth and sky as some jutted out of the ground, making it easy for an unsuspecting victim to trip over them.
In the darkness, a young archer stood nervously with shaking hands. His character not used to such stress, Wil breathed swiftly as his heart rate increased, his foot tapped quickly and silently on the muddy earth. He was waiting for her; the note he had written had been scribbled swiftly, for he wasn't sure how longer he could contain his secret.
A breaking twig startled Wil out of his thoughts, but this only made him more nervous.
The other archer of the party held a small note in her hand, though it was the last thing on Wil's mind at that moment. Her hair seemed to shine in the faint moonlight, and through lack of light, her eyes shone with a childish and cheerful glint. Her voice snapped him out of his daze.
"Hi, Wil… You left me this note?"
"Oh-- Rebecca! Yeah, I.. did… I… hello!"
In fact, the Archer did have something very important to say to her-- but how could he say something like 'I love you' when he could barley say hello?
"I just wanted to tell you something…"
"Really? What is it?" Her voice was full of a wonderful curiosity.
Swallowing his fear, Wil turned to Rebecca with determination. "Rebecca… these past few weeks have been like the old times, but… now I am talking to you as a man with something important to say. Not a young and quick-to-think lad like back then."
"…Wil?" The female archer's cheeks turned a dark red.
"During our quest, since I recognized your face. I've only wanted to tell you this one thing…"
'I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you'
"…W-What is it?"
Wil opened his mouth, hesitated, then took a breath.
"….Did you know Lucius is really a guy?"
"… … …Really?!"
Yay! Well, anyways… uhm… -dances offstage-
