I am on a roll four chapters in three days a new record for me so enjoy this and remember to review and whatnot.
Cordelia paced back and forth in front of the medical tent for what must have been at least an hour, worry clearly plastered upon her face. How could she have let this happen how could she have let her husband nearly die trying to protect her.
"Oh, Henry please be alright." she said as she continued to pace, finally the a figure emerged from the tent it was Lissa, wiping sweat from her brow the young princess smiled.
"Well he took a nasty hit from an arrow but he should be fine you can go see him now." Lissa said as she opened the tent to allow the woman to enter. Henry was lying down his usual dark mage robes gone. his torso was covered by a white bandage, next to him a bucket with bloodied and discarded ones, he turned to see his wife and gave her his signature smile. This gesture put Cordelia at ease slightly.
"Hey, dear." He said weakly as she took a seat next to him, she placed her hand in his and smiled back to him.
"Are you doing okay?" She asked, he nodded and tried his best to sit up but winced in pain.
"I'm just a little sore as all, nothing a few days of rest won't cure." He said cheerily, Cordelia sighed this made Henry frown slightly usually a sigh meant she was hiding her feelings.
"What's wrong?" He asked hoping to get her out of her sour mood.
"I'm just...worried." She replied, "I'm worried that I might lose you." She said and Henry smiled again, this was a thing he did constantly yet it still had a comforting effect on Cordelia.
"You know I do the same thing?" He said, Cordelia raised an eyebrow at the question/statement
"You worry about losing me?" She asked, he nodded
"I know you're a Pegasus knight and have been for a long time but I still worry." He finished, the smile still on his face. Cordelia was nearly brought to tears.
"Henry, I hope to never leave you, I love you more than anything in the world." She said as she placed her lips gently on his, parting the two looked one another in the eyes. An unspoken promise was made to never part from one another no matter what forces tried to break them apart. A few days later Henry still injured but now able to walk about freely, he ran into his wife looking over a tome in preparation for an upcoming battle.
"Hmm, I didn't know you knew how to use magic." He said as he sat down next to her.
"I just learned it I was recently promoted to a Dark Flier, and I'm having trouble learning them." She sighed out in defeat, Henry knew that sigh well his wife was not one to accept defeat, but she was in luck for she had married a Dark Mage.
"I can help you learn them I can't fight for a while still to injured but I can help you fight better." He said his trademark smile plastered on his face, she smiled back at him.
"I would like that, love." She said and so the two spent the rest of the day teaching and learning. Thus was the life of one of the strangest yet most loving couple In all of the Sheppard's.
