Chapter 1 Confessions

It was a beautiful day in Ylisse. The sun was shining, the birds were singing their melodious tunes, the grass was flowing gently in the wind, and the clashing sounds of wooden training swords rang in the distance. Just a normal day in the camp of the elite army of Ylisse called the Shepherds. After the war with Plegia, the Shepherds were recruited again to stop the neighboring content, Valm from conquering the world. Currently the Shepherds were recruiting some soldiers across Ylisse that came back to the past with Chrom, the current exalt of Ylisse's, daughter Lucina, the future exalt of Ylisse who travelled back in time to save the world from the wrath of Grima.

It's only been a few weeks since Lucina joined the Shepherds and already she has found 6 of her friends Kjelle, Yarne, Nah, Severa, Laurent and Noire. Lucina was ecstatic when she found her friends who she thought were long gone. She still misses her sister and cousin, but emotions like those can wait till she's done training.

Lucina was in the training yard hitting a wooden dummy with her Falchion, a blade that was forged from the tooth of Naga, the Divine Dragon and used by the First Exalt Marth, The Hero King. The swift movements of her sword proved that she was no ordinary swordswoman and that she can defeat even the most mightiest of foes. One of the many reasons she trains is to cope with her feelings of various things like how her future is doing, or how her other friends are faring, and her newly found feelings for the tactician of the army, Robin. Ever since her, and Robin have been paired together for the battles Lucina felt herself being able to tell him everything that's on her mind. Ever since their last conversation where Robin had told her to remember to take care of herself she's been having thoughts of her and the tactician being together seeing of how much of a caring man he was to her.

"No," she thought, as she sliced the dummy. "He only sees me as a friend." Lucina, clearing her thoughts of the tactician, gave a few more vertical chops on the dummy.

"I think that dummy has had enough," said a voice with a hint of sarcasm. Lucina turned her head to see the source of the voice. It was Robin walking up to her with his hands behind his back. "We need dummies to train with too, you know."

Robin had a calm appearance on his face. He has always been known to keep a calm demeanor in almost everything he does that's important to him. It was normal for a tactician to be calm no matter the circumstances but even certain actions can cause a tactician to fall under pressure. Not Robin though, he always makes sure his soldiers and friends get out of every battle alive and one of the ways to do that is to remain calm and collected.

"Is there something you need Robin?" Lucina asked with curiosity while sheathing Falchion.

"Yes actually I, err… wanted to give you these," Robin answered with a small blush as he pulled his arms from behind his back revealing about 4 daisies. The daisies had 8 white petals attached to a yellow center all connected to a green stem.

Lucina gasped. "Robin did you picked flowers for me? How thoughtful of you…" She took the flowers and smelled them. "They look lovely and smell divine."

"I'm glad you like them," Robin replied cheerfully.

"We have no flowers in my world," said Lucina gloomily. "All the fields are barren of life, but enough of that. Tell me what are we celebrating?" asked Lucina as she changed into a happier mood.

Robin put a hand behind his head as he said "Oh nothing I just thought you could use some cheer."

Lucina looked a bit sadden by that remark and said "Robin you didn't have to."

"Oh it's nothing… I… you're a dear friend and I wanted to do anything I can to help," Robin interrupted.

A brief silence fell on the two as they looked at each other. Lucina was about to say thank you for the flowers then leave but Robin decided to say. "Actually I'm not being entirely honest you are dear to me and the daughter of a true friend but…"

"But?" Lucina questioned. 'Is he going to say what I think he's going to say?' She thought. 'Could my dreams be coming true?'

"You are more than that. Much more. I didn't pick those flowers to cheer you up. I did it because…" Robin paused as he grabbed Lucina's hands and intertwined his fingers with hers causing both to blush. "I did it because I'm in love with you."

"What?" Lucina said, struggling to find the words to respond. Her dreams were coming true. To be with this man forever was coming true.

"Lucina I've fallen helplessly in love with you. I tried not to but I couldn't help it. After our last conversation I finally realized my feelings towards you. I was plagued with thoughts that you didn't return them. I know we've been through much and I know many trials still await us but no matter what happens or is to happen, my feelings cannot change. I love you, Lucina, with all my heart," said Robin with passion as he squeezed Lucina's hands lightly and brought her closer.

"Oh Robin… I… I'm so glad you told me this because you are in my heart as well." Lucina smiled heartfully with a tear trailing down her cheek. This teardrop wasn't a tear of sadness, but of happiness knowing that there was someone else besides her family that loved her.

"Truly? Oh, those must be the sweetest words I've ever heard!" Said Robin cheerfully. "I promise you, no matter what: I will be here for you and Chrom. Whatever road you choose to follow, I shall follow it at your side," he said determinedly.

"And we won't rest till we reach the end! Together!" Lucina finished as she wrapped her arms around Robin's waist. "Robin, I love you. And no matter what the future holds, I'm going to cherish every moment of it," she said.

Their lips started to come closer to each other until there was no space left as they kissed for the first time. Lucina moved her hands from Robin's waist and to his back while Robin moved his hands to her waist. They kissed for a moment longer then they parted lips. Their hands soon found each other and Lucina started to swing their arms slowly.

"I will remember this moment forever," she sighed blissfully.

"As will I my love," Robin added, who pulled Lucina into a tight warm hug. Robin rested his head on her shoulder savoring the peace and quiet until a simple little thought came into his head causing him to get up quickly confusing the princess.

"What's wrong?" asked Lucina worriedly.

"How are we going to tell Chrom?" Robin mumbled with a bit of fear.

Lucina put her hands on his back comfortingly and said reassuringly with a smile on her face, "we'll tell him when we're ready."

Robin calmed down a bit and relaxed. "Your right. But we have to tell him soon though. I don't want him walking in on us kissing. I'd be dead for sure," he said jokingly.

Lucina chuckled a bit and kissed Robin on the cheek. Chrom was only the first and easiest obstacle in their relationship and it most certainly won't be the last.
