A/N: An Eliwood/Fiora drabble, because I had writer's block on my AU fic. Based on a debate my friend and I had about who Eliwood was really in love with. I may expand this and put it into an Eliwood/Fiora oneshot I have in my head, but the AU fic is going to at least get chapter three before I do anything else.

Disclaimer: Nope. Not yet.

There are three kinds of love, Eliwood says.

One is love at first sight, but that is really an infatuation. You might grow to love the person, but you might not.

The second is the love of a friend. You know it is there, but it never bothers you, because it is just a friend.

The other kind of love is slow in growing, and you never truly realize it until it is fully upon you. There is no chance of falling out.

I'm not stupid. Ninian was the first, Lyn was the second, and I was slow in growing.
