A/n: Hey guys! I'm back with another chapter and thanks for the reviews. I want to make something clear as well. I AM NOT SUMIA BASHING. I'm not Sumia bashing because I actually like Sumia. I just have a different plan for her.

Anonymous: Thanks so much and I really like your suggestion and I will use something similar but not the exact idea because it just wouldn't fit with how I have my story planned out. But thanks so much! You gave me an idea as well. 3 Lotsa Love!

Moon: I like your idea as much as I like Anon's up there, but, I'm afraid I can't use it because I have a great plan for later. *acts like some weird person* But, stick with me kid and we'll go places. *winks and laughs* but seriously, stick with this story and encourage me and I assure you that this story will go far.

PickleToast: Thanks so much! It makes me feel great that people actually like my work, considering I was shot down a lot and I'm still pretty young, so thanks! And what chapter do you meet Henry in? Because I actually haven't finished the game (chapter 11 is soooo damn hard!), so it may be a little difficult to do. It'd help if you'd give more info on his personality and such, it would help a lot. Thanks!

TotalNerdGirl: Thanks, I'm glad you like it so far, and I try to do my best with writing Robin, but I tend to add some of my own personality to the character I'm writing, and I'm pretty sure I'd think like that. And don't worry, stick with the story because I have great plans for it.

A Cynic: Okay, look, I'm going to be as nice as I can when I say this. I'm not Sumia bashing. I actually really like Sumia, it's just that Robin feels like Sumia doesn't like her very much, but I realized how I phrased it was kind of weird, so I went back and changed it. I like Sumia, I just don't really like the pairing ChromxSumia. I prefer FredrickxSumia or GaiusxSumia. And I wasn't trying to make her seem like a jerk. I'm sorry. And I'm not 'victimizing' the FeMU. The idea popped into my head and I was just like, "Ooh! I have to write this!" But, I'm totally going to give Sumia a happy ending. Just stick with my story and you can let me know if you dislike how things are playing out with Sumia or not. Alright? http: . /tumblr_m5kt39nL4f1qgms1ho1_ - this is Fredrick and Sumia. Just remove the space. here's another. Just remove the space. http: . /tumblr_m7l3d86gf71ruti06o1_ (btw, they're in between the http: and the /)

Guest: Thanks so much for the review. And I totally really like that idea, so I'll probably use it. Just not in the way you're thinking.

Thanks to all those silent readers who don't review or favorite or follow. Just knowing you actually read this makes me happy.

Disclaimer: I don't own a thing. Only how Robin looks and the story itself.

Warnings: Slight language.

Anyways, I hope you enjoy.

The next morning I awoke curled up against my pillow, arms wrapped around it. I couldn't bring myself to get out of bed. I heard the door to my room open and don't look over at the person who entered.

I sighed as the soft footsteps of two people approached me. A cold hand went to my forehead. "She's got a fever."

There was a curse and another hand placed on my forehead. My eyes locked with the man who unintentionally broke my heart. "Good morning… how are you feeling?"

"Shitty…" The word came out from my mouth. I wanted him to stay by my side so bad, but, I wanted him to leave as well. I leaned towards him, drowsily. "Chrom…"

Chrom ran his hand through my hair and I didn't have a care in the world at this moment. Everything is so perfect right now, just tell him. "Yes?"

Go on, you can do it. "I love you…" I murmured.

He blinked surprised and shook his head. "You don't know what you're saying. You say ridiculous things when you're sick."

"Do not…" I argued back tiredly and he sighed quietly. He stood back up and looked at Mirabelle. Oh, I didn't know she was in here. She looks lovely today. I giggled and spoke my thoughts aloud.

"You said that you and Lissa would be all right taking care of her today?" He inquired.

She nodded, her blonde hair bobbing slightly. "Yes, we should be able to take care of her. She's quite a bit loopy. That makes it slightly easier." I could hear the slight teasing in her voice.

" 'M not that loopy." I managed out, the pillow muffling my speech.

"Right. I'll believe that. Eventually." Mirabelle looked back at Chrom, her expression going serious again and nodded. "We'll be fine. If it gets worse, I'll come get you."

Chrom smiled his thanks. "Thank you. I'll return this afternoon to see how she's doing. And with that, I must say goodbye."

"Bye bye, Chrom." I giggled and waved my left hand, which happened to be the arm under the pillow, so it really wasn't much of a wave. Chrom leaned forward and kissed my forehead, which made me giggle.

"Feel better soon. Alright?" I nodded with a smile and watched him leave.

"He's so..." I made a face because I couldn't think of the word. I was silent for a moment and then the word came, lighting up my face. "Perfect!"

Mira shook her head and helped me sit up. She handed me a bottle of something and I took a sip of it. I made a disgusted face. "That's yucky."

"Just drink it. You'll stay sick if you don't." I frowned. I didn't want to drink it, but if it'd make me better… I drank it and coughed afterward, letting Mirabelle take the bottle from me.

I get laid back down. "Now, get some more sleep. Someone will be here when you wake up."

I nodded slowly and closed my eyes, falling asleep as soon as my head hit the pillow.

I was in and out of sleep all day. The next few times I woke up, Lissa or Ricken was there. But, this time, when I woke up, Chrom was here. I rubbed my eyes and looked at him. He looked really tired.

I pushed myself up, I'm feeling a little bit better, but I'm still out of it. I moved into a crisscross position, facing Chrom. He was staring off into space. I supposed that was why he hadn't noticed me yet. I smiled faintly and started to cough.

I heard footsteps shuffling across the room to me and I tried to stop coughing, but I couldn't and the coughing was starting to hurt. I felt a hand on my back, patting it gently and a glass of water placed in my hand. I took a sip, calming the coughing and soothing my throat. I looked up at my commander and breathlessly nodded my thanks.

He understood and sat next to me on the bed. "How are you feeling?"

I shrugged. "Hard to say. Still a little loopy…"

Chrom chuckled, running a hand through his blue hair. "Well, at least you are clear in your speaking."

"What time is it?" I looked at the window. It's still dark outside.

"Probably around three in the morning." I could hear him trying to prevent a yawn.

Goodness. Three in the morning? He needed to go to bed. He'd probably been up all night. "Tired. You're tired. Go to bed."

He shook his head, a yawn slipping from his mouth. "I'm fine."

I stood. "I'm not going to bed until you do."

"Robin…" His voice held a warning tone, that I gladly chose to ignore.

"No." He stood as well and gave me a look. "Go. To bed, Chrom. I can survive on my own for a few hours."

He took a step towards me. "You're not giving me a choice here."

"What are you-" He scooped me up like a flour sack, my upper torso hanging behind him. "Chrom! No! You need sleep too!"

I got laid on my bed, but I was quicker than him and pulled him down quickly. I straddled his waist. "You need sleep too. And I'm not moving until you promise you'll get some."

"That won't be a problem." He rolled us over, switching our positions.

"Chrom…" I whined and tried to sit up and roll us again, failing. Sort of. Instead, we ended up on our sides, facing each other and… kissing. Both of our eyes went wide and in a split second I clenched my eyes shut. I felt his presence move off the bed and his footsteps went towards the door.

"I'll… I'll go get some sleep…" His voice sounded blank and I bit my lip. My head moved to nod on its own accord. "And Robin… You should as well."

He left after saying that and my eyes squeezed closed even tighter. We kissed. I cannot believe we kissed. Even if it was on accident.

I should have been happy and excited, but somehow… this hurt worse.

Three days after the kiss, I was up and walking. All the obvious symptoms from the sickness are gone. But, I know I'm still sick. And it's gotten worse. I kept working though. I had a wedding to plan and bags to pack.

At breakfast, everyone greeted me cheerfully. I smiled and greet everyone warmly. Ricken came up to me. "I'm glad you're feeling better."

I nodded with a smile. I had to hide that I was really sick. Otherwise Chrom would postpone his wedding and I didn't want that because I wanted him to be happy. Even if it was killing me on the inside.

But, I had it all planned out. I would help with the wedding, show up, and then leave that night. I'd leave a note, of course. "Yeah, me too. The wedding's in two weeks and I'm glad I can finish planning it."

Rickie gave me a look. "Robin…"

I shook my head. "I'm fine, Rickie. Really."

He sighed. "You're sure?"

I nodded and faked a smile. "Absolutely certain."

After breakfast, I went on with the wedding planning as usual (I tried to while I was sick. Not the best idea, but it got some done), but Sumia visited me today. She was cheerful as normal, but something was different today.

"Good morning, Robin!" Sumia hummed as she entered, beaming.

"Good morning, Sumia." I smiled and tipped my head in question. "You seem very happy this morning. May I inquire as to why?"

She shrugged. "I don't know, I just have a feeling today is going to be a good day."

"That's good, now let's talk decorations and dresses."

When I woke up, it was the middle of the night and I was coughing. It wasn't loud, but it was harsh. I managed to stand and grab my cup of water off my nightstand. I drank some and the coughing went down some. Suddenly, I felt sick to my stomach and rushed to the window.

I vomited out the window and realized something… I just vomited up blood. This is really bad. My heart started to race as I went over what could possibly be wrong with me.

I took a deep breath, trying to calm myself from my panic. You'll be fine… Just calm down. You'll be fine… I rubbed my throat as I went to get some water. I took a long drink and went downstairs to get more.

My heart rate had slowed. Good. I tried to coax myself into believing the stupid lies I told myself. You'll be fine… Just look into what this illness is. And then, leave in the dead of the night after writing a note so no one can stop you from leaving…

I sighed softly, my eyelids drooping as I walked. Stay awake a little longer Robin…

I filled my cup with water and sat outside in the courtyard. Maybe a little fresh air will help. I rinsed out my mouth with some of the water I got. I spat it in the grass and set my cup down next to me. I felt disgusting after vomiting. I inhaled the sweet smell of summer air. It was nice.

I heard soft footsteps behind me and turned to look. It's Chrom. What was he doing up this late? Chrom saw me and came to sit by me. We sat in silence, neither of us wanting to be the one to break it, but finally Chrom spoke up. "What are you doing out here so late, Robin?"

"I was getting some air, I couldn't sleep." I lied smoothly. "What about you?"

"I couldn't sleep either." We looked at each other and I smiled faintly.

"One more week until the big day." I stated after a few more moments of silence. I leaned towards him slightly, trying to get a better look at him in the darkness.

When his voice came out, it was soft and quiet, there was something else there too, but I couldn't place it. "Yeah… I'll be married in seven days…"

I hadn't noticed he leaned in as well, until he moved a strand of hair from my face. "This is one of the only times I've seen you with your hair down… I like it…"

Soon, our foreheads were touching and our breath was mingling. I let myself relax under his touch as his hand moved to my shoulder. "Yeah…" I spoke, almost breathlessly. "I do too…"

And after that, there in the palace courtyard, at midnight, in the middle of the summer… We kissed.

A/N: was that a cliffy? I can't tell. But, this is just the beginning. So, stay tuned! It gets better. I'll try to update as soon as I can. Probably sometime over the next week.

And scenario requests are still open! Thanks, lovelies!

Please review, and I would appreciate it if there weren't any flames here. We don't want to light dynamite. I prefer if you formed what you wanted to say in way that it turned into constructive criticism.

By the way, my tenth reviewer will get a oneshot (and possibly a story if I decide to continue it) dedicated to them! All they have to do is tell me their OTP and what genre of story they want and if I know the characters, I'll write it. If I don't I ask for a different pairing.

Only four more reviews until we hit ten! So come you guys!
