Sweet Child of Mine

[Author's Notes: I'm so sorry that this took two months to do, I promise that they won't take this long anymore.]

Robin woke up in a cold sweat and breathing heavily, "Again with the nightmares…I already talked to Chrom about it and even formed a plan to deal with it, so why do they keep appearing?" Once he calmed down enough, he looked down seeing Noire still asleep lightly snoring and the light shining in his tent showing that it was morning, "I guess it's time to wake up, I'll figure it out later…" He started rubbing her hair, "Hey Nori, it's time for us to get up."

Noire eyes started slowly opening and then she yawned quietly, which Robin thought was cute, and looked up at Robin smiling warmly, "Good morning, my love."

Robin smiled back, "Good morning, my Nori. How did you sleep?"

Noire beamed, "Great especially because of you."

"I'm glad to here that."

She knew that they were going to have to pretend to not be together soon so she wanted to kiss him before they left, "Robin, can we kiss?"

Robin smiled, "How can I say no to a kiss?"

Noire crawled up so that she was face-to-face with him and pressed her lips against his.

"Hey Robin! Get up you lazy..."

Noire quickly got off of Robin while he sat up, "Uh, hey there, uh, Chrom."

Chrom shook his head quickly like he was trying to shake off his shock, "Hey…just, um, hurry up and pack, we're going to start marching soon!" He quickly left.

Robin's heart was beating fast not just from the kiss but he thought it was Tharja and so was Noire but she soon had a look of sadness on her face knowing that they had to leave each other for a while, which made his heart hurt, "I'm sorry NorI…"

Noire looked away , "Its okay…I know we have to march today…"

Robin held her cheek and lightly turned her head to gave him and gave her a small smile, "There's no need to be sad especially since I want you to stay with me every night."

Noire's eyes went wide, "R-Really?"

Robin nodded, "Of course."

Noire hugged him, "I'm so happy to hear that! I just thought it was only going to be for one night."

Robin smiled, "Well it does help that I held the best body of all the girls in the camp and slept with most beautiful girl in the camp."

Noire giggled elated from hearing his compliments, "And she will love you forever even in death."

Robin pecked her lips, "Yeah, even in death." He started hearing crunching grass around his tent indicating that more people were out and about, "We should probably head out."

Noire nodded feeling better about separating, "Yeah…we should." She got off the bed and went to the back opening.

Robin got off the bed as well, "I'm sorry that you have to go through the back, it feels wrong."

Noire shook her head, "It's okay…it's better to just do it this way and not deal with mother's…wraith."

Robin nodded, "Yeah, you're right."

Noire smiled at him, "I'll see you tonight, my love." She then went through the opening.

Robin smiled while she was leaving but then sighed, "Well time to hear Chrom talk about why I shouldn't be with Noire…"


Noire was walking back to her tent to get everything ready for their departure for the Mila tree while everyone was looking at her with surprise and interest since she had a big smile on her face instead of looking mopey. She even heard her friends surprised by her happiness.

She heard Owain with his usually shouting, "Whoa! Does my eyes deceive me or does Noire look like she just found a legendary sword!?"

She then heard Nah, "Yeah, I never seen her smile like that even before our world was destroyed."

Next was indigo, "She looks beautiful with that smile! Maybe I should invite her to dinner."

Then Laurent, "Maybe we should ask her instead of just pondering it?"

Lastly Brady, "Will y'all leave her alone, just let her be happy dammit!"

After hearing Brady, it reminded Noire that she needed to thank him for helping her so she walked over to her group of friends, "Um Brady, can I talk to you real fast."

Everyone looked between the both of them while Brady looked at her confused, "Yeah sure."

Noire and Brady walked away from the small group. Once they got enough distance, Noire turned around, "Sorry for taking you away but I wanted to thank you for helping me with Robin. If you didn't convince me to go and just talk to him, I would've just laid there making excuses on why I shouldn't talk to him."

Brady grinned, "So you actually got with him, no wonder why you're all smiling now."

Noire nodded, "Yeah, but can you please not tell the others, only you, Lucina and her family knows, and…Cordelia."

Brady nodded, "Don't worry, I wont be telling no one." He looked at the group who was looking at them intently, "I reckon, you want me to stop them from bothering you about it?"

Noire shook her head, "Thank you but they'll probably won't listen to you anyways. Anyways, I should be going to prepare for our march. Thank you again." She turned around and left.

Brady smiled, "Congratz Noire, I'm glad you got yer Robin."


Robin Tent

After Robin got everything packed up, he started heading for Chrom's tent to give him the maps that he drew. Once he made it, he walked in and saw Chrom and Sumia getting their things packed up, "Hey you two."

Sumia quickly walked over to him after hearing him, "Is it true that you were with Noire this morning!?"

Robin sighed because of Chrom telling her without asking him but he smiled at Sumia, "Yeah, she spent the night with me."

Sumia squealed and ran out of the tent but not before tripping first.

Robin laughed watching her leave, "She's probably going to get Lissa and Lucina and bug Noire about it." He then turned back to Chrom, "You just couldn't wait for me to get here."

Chrom shrugged, "Can you blame me? I told Sumia about seeing you this morning with Tharja's daughter kissing her and I guess she knew about it."

Robin nodded, "Well yeah, she helped Noire with me." He frowned thinking that Chrom wouldn't approve of it, "Let me guess, you're going to tell me that It's a bad idea to be with her."

Chrom shook his head, "No, I'm just surprised that you would be with your stalker's daughter."

Robin laughed, "Yeah, talk about finding love in the weirdest of ways."

Chrom laughed as well, "Speaking of weird, does Tharja or Cordelia know about her?"

Robin sighed, "Tharja is the last person that needs to know about us but Cordelia…" He looked down in sadness still upset about what he did to her, "I felt bad so had to tell her about us."

Chrom nodded, "That sounds like you, so how did that go?"

Robin shook his head, "Bad…she slapped me and ended our friendship. It didn't help that I accused her of loving me only because you married Sumia."

"Wow Robin, even I know that's something you don't say."

Robin rolled his eyes, "Yeah, I know that now." He sighed and looked around, "He need some help? I already got my stuff packed up and unlike you, I don't need to have my tent look like a royal bedroom." He didn't really want to but talking about Cordelia made him start thinking that he was a bad person again and doing this would probably help him forget about it.

Chrom laughed, "Well sorry for being a King and people thinking that I have to live royally outside of the castle. At least I'm not like most kings, at least jump straight into the fight."

Robin laughed as well, "Yeah and it usually involves me saving your butt."

Chrom rolled his eyes, "You knew what you were sighing up for."

Robin smiled, "Yeah saving you and everyone in the Shepherds but I wouldn't have it any other way, well besides peace."


Noire's Tent

Noire just got done getting everything packed for there march to the Mila Tree.

"Oh Noireeeee! You have some news to share with us!"

Noire already knew that voice was and looked to the entrance and it was indeed Lissa poking her head in with a big grin on her face, "W-What kind of news…?"

Lissa walked in with Sumia and Lucina, "You know darn well what kind of news we're talking about! Did you spend the night with Robin!?"

Noire was worried that people outside would hear them especially mother but other than that, she didn't care to hide about spending the night with Robin from them, "Yes, I did spend the night with Robin and we're going to do it every night."

Sumia and Lisa's squealed while Lucina looked at her in concern, "But what if your mother finds out?"

Noire smiled thinking about Robin protecting her form her mother, "Robin will protect me."

Lissa lightly slapped Lucina's shoulder, "See there's nothing to worry about, Robin will protect her." She them smirked at Noire, "Soooo, how was it like holding Robin's bare chest?"

Noire blushed hard, "W-We didn't s-sleep like t-that…"

Sumia laughed, "Lissa, they just started sleeping together."

Lisa's scoffed, "Yeah I guess that's true." She then had a big grin on her face, "Did you at least kiss?"

Noire beamed, "Yes, and it was as great as you two said it was."

Sumia smiled, "That's great dear. But there's an even better way to kiss." She leaned towards Noire's ear and whispered then pulled away once she was down.

Noire was blushing again but nodded, "O-Okay…I can try that then."

Lisa's smiled knowing exactly what Sumia told her, "Robin's so going to enjoy that."

Noire smiled, "I hope so."

Lucina looked at the three, "What are you guys talking about?"

Sumia smiled at her, "I'll tell you when you find someone of your own."

Noire smiled at Lucina, "Actually is there someone from our group that you like? You helped me so I want to help you."

Lucina looked at her surprised that she would ask her that but shook her head, "I don't have any attraction to any of the boys besides friendship plus I have no time for that."

Lissa laughed, "Oh you say that now, but you're going to find someone and I'm going to definitely bug you about it."

Lucina shivered when she said that because just by seeing how she is with Noire made her worried.

Noire looked over at Sumia, "Um, I forgot to mention this but Robin told Cordelia about us and…it didn't go so well."

Sumia frowned, "Oh dear…what happened?"

Noire told them everything that Robin told her.

Sumia sighed, "Even though Robin shouldn't have said that, Cordelia went a little too far."

Lissa shrugged, "Can you blame him though? Cordelia shouldn't be sighing over my brother if she loved Robin as much as she says she does."

Noire nodded at Lissa, "I was thinking that too." She then looked back at Sumia, "The reason I brought it up, is because I was wondering if you can talk to Cordelia, because Robin still wants to be good friends with her."

Sumia nodded, "Of course dear, I'll talk to her the next time we set up camp."

Noire smiled, "Thank you."


Two Hours Later

Makeshift Campsite

Mark's eyes slowly opened and he saw Severa sitting on a log tapping her foot impatiently, "Oh…good morning Severa."

Severa scoffed, "About time you woke up, it must be nice to be able to sleep for that long."

Mark looked down feeling pathetic, "I'm sorry…"

Severa sighed, "Stop apologizing, I would probably do the same anyways, if I lived in peace."

"Um when did you wake up then?"

Severa shrugged, "When the sun came up, I'm still not used to seeing the sun."

Mark looked at her confused, "How are you not used to seeing the sun…?"

Severa looked away, "That's…none of your business."

Mark looked down, "Okay…but if you want to talk about it…I'm here."

Severa looked at him surprised but looked away, "Its not like that's going to make me tell you…but thanks anyways."

Mark smiled, "Of course…" He quickly got up brushing off the grass from his outfit, "I'm ready to go whenever you are."

Severa turned to him and nodded, "You better be since we're leaving now."

So Severa and Mark continued on north to see if they would run into the Shepards.

Mark looked at Severa, "Um…do you know where we're going or are we just going north?"

Severa rolled her eyes, "Of course I do, we're going to the Mila tree." She didn't want to admit it but she just figured that out while he was sleeping.

Mark nodded, "Okay…I hope they're there…"

Severa shrugged, "They probably are." She then stopped.

Mark walked into her surprised that she stopped, "Huh? Why did you…"

"Quiet!" Severa whispered harshly to him, "There are Risen up ahead."

Mark looked at her confused, "Risen?" He looked over her shoulder and saw humans but they had glowing red eyes with a purple aura around them, "W-What are those!?" He yelled a little too loud and unfortunately, alerted the Risen…and they started running towards them.

Severa glared at him, "You idiot!" She roughly grabbed his arm and practically dragged him with her to run away from the Risen.

"I'm sorry…but what are those things!"

"You're telling me that you never ran into them before!?"

"No! I never saw them before!"

"Gawds, you're hopeless! I'll just tell you after we lose them!"

They kept running away from the Risen through the forest but they were still able to catch up to them but there running helped them get to the tree faster.

Mark looked up and saw the top of the Mila Tree, "Look! It's the Mila Tree!"

Severa looked up and saw the Mila Tree as well in the distance but it was a bad idea because she tripped over a small log with a yelp, twisting her ankle and losing her sword.

Mark hearing the thud, looked back seeing on the ground, "Severa!"

Severa tried to quickly get up but fell back down feeling pain in her ankle and looked behind herself seeing the Risen rush at her making her panic, "Stay away from me!"

Seeing the Risen rushing at Severa and hearing her distress broke something inside Mark and he started glowing purple, "Blood and Lighting! You will not harm her you disgusting monsters!" He ran in front of Severa and opened his dark tome. He started chanting words and strong dark energy started forming around him and it then went to his hand,

Severa looked at Mark in shock, "M-Mark!?"

Mark looked back at her, "Don't worry, I'll protect you." He looked back at the Risen who was about to attack them, "Die monsters!" He released a huge blast of dark energy at the group of Risen, destroying them all. He then fainted.


Meanwhile

Mila Tree

The Shepards started heading up to the shrine entrance after defeating Cervantes but they then heard a blast making everyone stop and they all looked down seeing a purple blast.

"What was that!?" Robin turned over to Chrome, "Should we go over and check?"

Chrome nodded, "Yeah." He looked at the others, "Everyone stay here, me and Robin will go check it out."

Lucina walked forward, "No, me and Robin will go."

Chrom sighed, "Lucina, you need to stop being overprotective of me."

Lucina shook her head, "Apologies Father but your safety is...

"Yeah, yeah, my safety is your top priority...just go."

Lucina nodded while Robin laughed and they both left.

Lissa walked over to Chrom, "You know, why are you the only one that's top prioity? Shouldn't Sumia and me be included as well?"

Chrom sighed, "It's Lucina...she only focuses on just one thing."

Sumia laughed, "Just like someone I know."

"Ha ha very funny..."

Severa slowly got up and limped towards Mark hearing him breathe lightly, "I guess he's okay, just passed out. But what was that? He had the same purple aura Noire usually has when she goes crazy but he sounded brave instead of murderous." Even though she didn't know what really happened to him, she felt grateful for him saving her.

After a couple minutes, she heard a pair of footsteps and she then saw Lucina and Robin appear.

Lucina looked at her surprised, "Severa!?"

Severa looked back at her surprised, "Lucina!?"

Robin smiled, "Well I'm guessing she's another one from you and Noire's timeline?" He looked over at Mark, "Is he with you guys too? But why is he unconscious though?"

Lucina looked at Mark confused, "No...I don't recognize him." She looked at Severa, "Who is he?"

Severa smirked wanting Mark to tell them who he really was, "He's someone I felt sorry for but he was the one who saved me."

Robin's eyes went wide, "He created that explosion!?" "I never seen Tharja do that before?"

Severa nodded, "Yeah, I was surprised about it as well even though he acts weak."

Robin walked over to Mark and kneeled down beside him, "We should bring him to the Shepards. Wait a minute...why does he look familiar especially with the white hair and that looks like the same gold circlet as Noire's…" His eyes felt like they were going to pop out of his head after he realized something, "Oh my gods!"

Robin's yell made Mark start waking up and he slowly opened his eyes but he's eyes went wide as soon as he noticed who was over him, "F-Father!"

Lucina looked at Mark in shock, "D-Did you just call him Father!?"

Robin was still shocked about having an actual child that was probably from another timeline but that white hair and Noire's circlet were dead giveaways, "I...I can't believe it..."

Mark quickly got into kneeling position and hugged him, "I'm so happy to see you again Father!"

Robin hugged him back, "I'm so happy to meet you my future son."

Lucina smiled at the moment, "This is a nice surprise. Robin and Noire have a child in another future."

Severa smirked, "I wouldn't say a child."

Lucina looked at her confused, "What do you mean by…" Her eyes went wide, "They have two children?"

Severa nodded, "Yeah, he said that he was looking for his sister. Apparently, I think she's annoying."

Mark pulled away from Robin, "Is mother with you?"

Robin smiled feeling even more happy, "Yeah she's with the others."

Mark beamed, "Can we go see her!?"

Robin nodded, "Of course." He smirked, "Wait, let's surprised her." He whispered to Mark.

Mark nodded and smiled, "Okay!"

Robin got up and looked back at the girls, "Well lets go back then."

"Wait." Severa limped to Mark, "Do you remember what happened?"

Mark held his head, "All I remember is up to you falling…and then I blacked out…"

Severa looked away, "Well you saved me…even though I didn't need your help but thanks anyways."

Mark smiled, "You're welcome….but what did I do?"

"You destroyed the Risen."

"Wow really…?" Mark looked at his book, "I could barely do this level of dark magic…"

"He even talks like her." Robin laughed, "Well we sometimes become stronger when we protect someone. Anyways, lets go back before Chrom starts freaking out."

Severa was going to tell them about his 'Brave' side but decided to wait for them to see it.


Mila Tree

Noire was slowly started to freak out on the inside, "What's taking them so long…?" But that's when she saw Robin and Lucina with two people, one she recognized, "Severa!" Her and the other future children ran up to them and after everyone else talked to Severa asking if she was okay because of her twisted ankle. Noire walked up to her, "Hello Severa…its great to see you again."

Severa smiled, "Yeah, yeah, so I heard a bunch of times but yeah, its great to see you too." She then smirked, "So I heard you got something without my help?"

Noire looked down trying not to smile, "Y-Yeah…I'm sorry…"

Severa shrugged, "Whatever, I'm just surprised that you were able to get it without me."

Brady walked up to them, "Yo, who's that? The one who came with y'all? I don't remember him ever being with us."

Noire looked back at Severa, "Yeah, I was wondering about too." Everyone said the same thing

Severa was trying not to smile, "Geez, just go find out yourselves. I got to talk to someone." She walked away.

All the future children looked at each other until Robin walked up to them.

"Hey Noire, can I speak to you with fast?"

Noire quickly turned around hearing Robin as well as seeing the young man as well, "Of course."

Once Noire and other two stepped to the side, Robin and Mark turned around, "I want you to meet Mark."

"Mark?" Noire looked at him confused and then down at Mark, "Um…hello."

Mark was having a hard time not hugging her, "H-Hello…"

"He kind of sounds like me...but wait…that circlet...it looks like mine…but that can't be." "Um…can I see your circlet?"

"Of course." Mark took off his circlet and handed to Noire.

Noire grabbed it and looked at it closely. It had wear and tear on it but it was exactly the same as hers…the same one her father made, "H-How did you get this? Only one person made this."

Mark smiled, "It was given to me by my mother whose father made it for her."

Noire gasped dropping the circlet and started crying realizing that he was her future son since she wouldn't let anyone have it besides her family, "A-Are y-you m-my s-s-son…?"

Mark started crying and hugged her, "Mother! Oh, I missed you so much! I thought I'll never see you or Father again!"

Noire hugged him back and started rubbing his hair instinctively acting like a mother, "Its okay, its okay, we're here now."

Robin walked to them and hugged both of them, "Yeah Mark, we're here now."

"What is the meaning of this!?"

Robin and Noire's eyes went wide hearing the one person that they forgot about…Tharja.

"Grandmother!" Mark let go of Noire and ran to Tharja hugging her.

Tharja stood there with her eyes wide, frozen, "G-Grandmother!?"

[End Notes: Well Mark is reunited with his family because of part of Henry's Risen army that went missing and Tharja has officially become a grandmother haha. So a few things, about Robin telling Chrom about his dream, he told him when he was supposed to wake up Noire when they first met that's why he arrived late. So Sumia and Lissa are basically the mother figures who teach their daughter about how to love someone because we know that Tharja wouldn't help her or maybe she will. Mark never saw the Risen because they haven't been summoned there yet so that's he never saw them. Speaking of Mark, as you can see he has another side but it's not like Noire's he basically becomes like Robin when he sees someone he cares about in distress and yes, he's stronger than Tharja and Noire but doesn't know it yet. Oh, if you're wondering where Morgan is, she's having a clumsy adventure, you should know who she's with by the word clumsy and I figured out her pairing, I'm sure you know who it is.]

Review:

That Random Guy: Well I'm all about the tenseness and sweetness in my stories. As you can see, Noire doesn't hate Cordelia, she just hates that Cordelia looks down at her and Sumia is going to talk to her. Yes, you're going to see Morgan before Robin, Noire, and Mark see her but she's on her own adventure with a certain clumsy girl.
