Bliss, she was in absolute bliss.
In the quiet of the early morning she laid with her lover in her arms. Their breathing in sinc, relaxed, controlled, constant. Two heart beats, yet one heart, they were together, they were one.
Where would she be without this woman, who would she be, for this young blonde, this person, this human, this soul was her everything, they were as one.
The warrior let out a contented sigh, she was in the Elysian Fields. No, this blonde, her wife was the Elysian Fields. Her love was undeniable for the smaller woman. She breathed her in, her scent inhaled to fill her heart, to fill her mind, to fill her senses.
For years she had wanted her, she yearned for her, wanted to touch her, smell her, make love to her, wanted to wed her. For she to be hers, and hers alone, no other to touch her, no other to taste her, no other to love her.
Her chest ached of memories long ago, so desperately she wanted her, it hurt to be near her. She remembered her scent to be oh so close, her body would tremble her throat would constrict, her eyes would water for she loved her so much. The hurt would go on, never relenting only to tease her, to hurt her, to harm her.
No longer this would be, as they were as one. The love they both shared declared to the world as both took their vows before dusk that day. They were joined, they were wed and were finally as one. She hurt no longer, her heart was healed, she could smile again for this woman had saved her, had touched her, had healed her. This woman her wife had now become her total life.
She looked down at the most beautiful sight she had ever seen. The woman she loved with all of her being was asleep on her chest, her arms held tight around her middle, her head resting atop her breast. Her lips so close to her nipple, her breath gently caressing her own bear breast.
In the early dawn light she saw her, beautiful, resting, safe, hers. Breathing in, breathing out. Her heart was strong, her body so lean, her scent so sweet.
Her finger ever so gently traced her jaw line admiring the beauty that she saw. Never again would she hurt for she was hers and hers alone.
She ran her fingers through her hair, so soft and so beautiful, how lucky she was. This woman, her wife chose a warlord, a killer, a monster to be her partner in life. She chose her to help redeem her, to save her, to love her, to marry her….. how lucky she was. This is her wife.
She was everything to her… her friend, her lover, her rescuer, her savior, but most of all her soul mate, her reason for living.
A gentle breeze swept through the window, carrying a scent of early spring flowers. The sounds of the forest were beginning to awaken. A new day dawned… the first day dawned …for her and her wife. Their life forever changed, for they were as one, from this day forward.
The young blonde stirred in the warrior's arms, her eyes opening slowly with a gleam to them in the early morning dawn. Her lips formed a brilliant smile as she greeted her warrior. For this was her warrior, her woman, her companion, her protector, her friend, her soul mate, her wife.
The dark brunette looked down at the wonderful sight before her as a silent tear slid down her cheek. She kissed her wife upon her lips, so soft and gentle her taste exquisite.
"Good morning love."
"Morning Xena." She turned in the warrior's arms and captured her lips and kissed her with all the passion she could muster. She loved this woman with all her heart. Her hand gently caress the side of Xena's face as she looked into the depths of her eye's and saw what they reflected. It was love, nothing but pure love.
"I love you Xena, I will always love you."
"As will I, I will never leave you, never harm you, only love you.
You are mine, I am yours, we are together, we are as one, you and me forever."
The warrior took another deep breath and with all the love she could convey.
"Even in death Callisto, I will never leave you."
A/N: Didn't expect that one hey! Please don't hate me, I can fix this. As a matter of fact I think I have to. It seems quite wrong to have this pairing. Anyway please tell me what you think, good or bad and do you want me to continue?
