Here's it in a nutshell, I just got back to writing and I wanted to continue my Alan and Tate fic, but frankly I lost a chapter and I havnt gotten around to rewriting it. So now, I have decided to more or less move on…. And by moving on I mean write another cavalierXpeg knight fic…. This one is a work in progress, so I hope to actually keep updating as I write it. As you all can tell from the title, its SainxFarina. Well, lets begin…

Disclaimer: I DON'T OWN ANYTHING FIREEMBLEM (characters) BUT I WISH I DID.

Farina paced back and forth on the wooden deck of the inn, frustration plastered on her face. She looked out past the inn out across the plains of white snow but she could not see anything except her own breath. The snow was really coming down now, typical for an Ilian winter. Farina sighed now, crossed her arms, and walked inside. He hadn't shown up..

She sat down at a table and ordered a drink, half torn between worry and frustration for the man who had been planning to meet her.

"That imbecile," thought Farina, "he said he would meet me here before winter... If he even comes that is..."

Farina pondered that man she met during her journey with Eliwood, half frustrated, half worried. That foolish, overdramatic man may have left late... Or got caught in a storm... Farina worried now, Sain was a man of many faults, but Farina could not fathom how he would leave an open invitation to meet her unanswered. That man was smitten with every woman that moved, not to mention Farina was the only one who did not outwardly reject his advances.

Truth be told, Farina needed Sain in Ilia to help her with some mercenary work. However, an excuse to see one of her more.. Entertaining colleagues was welcome. Farina didn't find Sain's advances as disgusting as some of the other girls, she was actually rather amused by them. His complements were also rather heartfelt too, though he seemed to have something nice to say about EVERYONE.

Farina sat at her table, sipping some of her ale. she looked out the window and felt a twinge of guilt, Farina had no idea whether or not he was out there. Finally, after a shake of the head and a quick "I can't believe I'm doing this," Farina stood up and walked to the door. She took some of the gold out of the purse that hung on her belt and paid the barkeeper, then walked out back into the cold. She briefly thought she had paid him too much, but she didn't care. Farina had more money than she could ever spend, and she was still making more. Her entire family had become rather well off by the end of the war, and both of her sisters were living happy lives, now she had no family to help out, and nothing to do for herself. Farina wondered if she had too much money at this point... It was almost feeling like dead weight in her purse.

The Pegasus knight shrugged... She could always buy a bigger house... A work of art... Maybe a new spear... Suddenly, she felt a little lonely, here Farina was with enough money to buy everything she needed, yet she had no one to share it with. Farina shoved these blasphemous thoughts from her head,

"Too much money?! It's not possible!"

Now she walked down to where the stables were and mounted her Pegasus, scoffing at her previous thoughts. Farina took off, searching the area for Sain. Eventually, Farina saw a green armored man lying in the snow,. She quickly went down, checked, and sure enough, it was Sain. Farina tried to wake him, but Sain was out cold. Farina felt his arm,

"Saint Elimine... He almost died of hypothermia.. Better get him back home."

Farina flew with Sain back to the inn, bought a room for the two of them, and laid him onto of the bed. She sat down next to him and shook her head.

"Idiot forgot how dangerous winter could be up here..."

Farina tried to look on the bright side; at least he didn't get sidetracked by some young girl... Then again that might have been the reason he came to Ilia so late in the first place.

The caviler beside her began to stir; Farina had put his armor in the corner earlier. A little smile crossed her face,

"I wonder..."

She went into her bag and took out a vial of scented oil. Farina was never a person for perfumes, but Sain gave her this at the end of her last adventure. Besides, she never got around to getting rid of it. Farina dabbed some of it on her index finger and placed it under Sain's nose.

Sure enough, he woke up.

"Am I in heaven?" asked Sain in a distant voice.

"No you lout, though you would be if I hadn't found you in the snow."

Sain came to his senses and recognized Farina.

"Ah my beauteous Ilian rose! You have saved my poor soul from poor soul from perishing in that icy wasteland! By Saint Elimine you-"

She should have left him asleep. Farina cut him off.

"Shut up Sain, you need to rest.
I cannot have you dying after I already saved you." she added with a smile, "Besides, we will be spending the next few months working together, you have plenty of time to complement me."

Sain beamed in turn. Farina paid the barkeeper to bring Sain some warm soup. The bar keeper gave it to him and left, at which point Sain made a futile attempt to convince Farina that he was too weak to eat it himself. Farina responded by "accidentally" spilling some on him, causing him to yelp in pain.

After Sain finished his soup, Farina gave a yawn, she had a long day and it was becoming very late. Sain noticed this and, being the noble knight he is, offered to sleep on the floor. Farina rolled her eyes,

"Sain, you just almost died and you need a good rest. Scoot over."

A look of pleasant surprise crossed Sain's face as the beautiful Pegasus knight laid down next to him. Farina noticed and joked.

"Don't get any ideas Sain."

Now his surprise turned to shock.

"What! My dove! I would never dream of thinking about you in that way!"

"What is that supposed to mean? You don't think I'm beautiful?"

Farina feigned insult and Sain stammered before she began to giggle. Finally he just sat there red as a tomato. Farina gave Sain a warm, confident smile. He returned it and Farina whispered a short goodnight. She blew out the one candle in the room and dozed off into sleep.

Authors note:

I feel like I am going the opposite way from which my fic writing began… I started with Sain and Florina…. And now im at the polar opposite… anyways, I hope you all enjoyed it, like, comment, follow, I might post the next chapter either tomorrow or sometime this week. Happy holidays!
