Chapter 2

The next morning, when Florina woke up, she saw Lyn sitting next to her.

"Good morning Florina. I made breakfast for you." Lyn said as she was smiling.

"Umm... Thank you Lady Lyndis." Florina said.

"I hope you enjoy your breakfast." Lyn said, "I'm headed outside to enjoy the fresh air."

Then Lyn put the food she made for Florina next to her, then started to walk towards the exit of the tent.

"Umm... Lady Lyndis..." Florina started.

"Yes, Florina?" Lyn said as she stopped and turned around.

"I... Umm... Well..." Florina stuttered, "Umm... Never mind..."

"Okay." Lyn said as she turned around, then she walked out of the tent.

Outside the tent.

"Hey, Eliwood!" Hector said, "Let's have a little spar!"

"I really don't need to practice right now..." Eliwood said.

"What's up with you?" Hector asked.

"I'm thinking about something Marcus said earlier..." Eliwood said.

"What is that?" Hector asked.

"I noticed that he didn't really take place in the fight yesterday, so I asked him what he was doing, and he said he was 'to busy eating up experience.'"

"That's strange..." Hector commented

Then Lyn walked up to them.

"Hello Eliwood." Lyn said.

"Hello Lyndis..." Eliwood responded.

"What's wrong?" Lyn asked.

"To make a long story short, Eliwood is confused because Marcus said that he was 'eating up experience.'" Hector answered, "Very strange, isn't it?"

"I don't remember Marcus being like that..." Lyn said.

"It seems that Marcus is a very strange fellow..." Hector said.

Then Florina comes walking out of the tent.

"Lady Lyndis..." Florina said, "Thanks for making me breakfast..."

"What? You made breakfast for her?" Hector said.

"Yes, what's wrong with that?" Lyn said.

"The fact that you haven't made breakfast for anyone else here except for her!" Hector said.

"Oh, so you're just a glutton, and you're jealous that I didn't make any for you!" Lyn said.

"That's not what I meant!" Hector said.

"It probably is." Lyn said.

"Is not!" Hector yelled.

"Okay, enough fighting you two." Eliwood said.

"Okay, we'll stop fighting." Lyn responded.

For a few seconds, it was silent, then Florina said something.

"Umm... Lady Lyndis..." Florina started.

"Yes?" Lyn responded.

"Could I talk to you alone?" Florina asked.

"Sure, I'd love to!" Lyn said.

A bit later in a tent.

"Lady Lyndis... I wanted to say... That..." Florina stuttered.

"What do you want to say?" Lyn asked.

"I wanted to say that I..." Florina started.

"You what?" Lyn asked.

"I... I... I love you..." Florina stuttered.

"What? You... Love... Me?" Lyn responded.

"Umm... Yes..." Florina said.

"Umm... Well..." Lyn started, "I don't know what to say..."

They stayed quiet for a few minutes, just sitting there, saying nothing...

"Florina... I... Love you too..." Lyn finally said.

"What? You... Do?" Florina responded.

"Ever since you saved me, all I've done was think of you..." Lyn started, "You are truly my hero, and I appreciate you always being at my side... I truly do love you for that."

"You really love me?" Florina asked.

"Yes..." Lyn said as she started to slowly move towards Florina, then as she got really close, she gave her a light kiss on the lips.

"Lyn..." Florina said, "I mean, Lady Lyndis..."

Then Florina gave Lyn a hug, and smiled, "I'm glad..." Florina started, "Glad you love me too..."

Then Hector comes running into the tent. "Hey! Eliwood wants you!" Hector said.

"Eek!" Florina screamed as she jumped and ran behind Lyn.

"Hector, you should really try to be a little less sudden around her." Lyn said.

"Well, what are we waiting for, let's go see what Eliwood wants you for!" Hector said, ignoring what Lyn just said.

"Okay..." Florina responded, still a little scared from Hector's entrance.

Then they walked out of the tent and headed for Eliwood.
