Hey, guys! So, I have chapter 3 up for you all to (hopefully) enjoy. Now I'm not going to lie, I kind of struggled with this particular song because it's one I actually hate. But it worked the best for writing a oneshot songfic, so there's that. I do like how the final product came out, though: don't get me wrong on that.
I own absolutely nothing.
Anyways, please read & enjoy! :D
"Inigo, I'm in love with you."
The man in question was taken aback by Robin's revelation. His pupils dilated, his mouth dropped wide open, and his cheeks turned bright red.
"Y-You do?" he stuttered. "I… I didn't expect to hear this. So, wait... you're in love with me?"
"I'm serious, Inigo," replied Robin. "I… I love you so much. I know I shouldn't because you're Ylissean royalty and you're a philandering playboy. You're everything I shouldn't love, to be honest. And yet here I am, professing my love for you."
Inigo's face turned redder (something he didn't think was even possible). He couldn't blame Robin for her way of thinking; he was a difficult man to love. He loved to flirt with women on his travels, as well as any of the unmarried female Shepherds. That included Robin, of course, but he'd never thought she'd fall for it.
Or maybe she had?
"Where is this coming from?" he asked. He didn't think she was playing him for a fool; he just wanted to know how she'd fallen for him.
Robin blushed. "I… I honestly don't know, Inigo. I guess… something about you caused me to fall for you. Actually, come to think of it, there were a lot of things. Namely, your smile; your kindness; and how you want to make everyone happy. You make me want to be a better person, Inigo. I'm in love you, and I know for a fact that my feelings for you will never change. So… do you love me? Do you love me at all?"
Inigo blinked hard in an attempt to snap himself back into the current situation. He let out an amused chuckle before grabbing her hands.
"Robin, I… I love you, too. I know it might seem hard to believe because of the kind of man I am, but I'm serious! I've never been more serious in my life! I don't flirt with women anymore because you keep occupying my thoughts."
"You're constantly thinking of me?" interrupted Robin.
"Yes," answered Inigo. "I always think about whether you love me, or even if you'd give me a chance despite my history. But now I don't have to."
Robin raised her right eyebrow in a playful manner. "Really? And why might that be?"
Inigo chuckled as he pulled her close. "Because now I know how you feel about me."
"Gods, I'm so glad I told you how I feel," murmured Robin. She buried her head in his chest and let out a content sigh. Her racing heart calmed down significantly.
"Mmm… me too, my love."
Inigo used his hand to carefully tilt her head up towards him. He then leaned down and kissed her lips with everything he had. The new couple kissed for several minutes before lack of air forced them apart.
"So... how did that feel?"
"Amazing," replied a breathless Robin. "May I please have another kiss?"
"Of course. Anything for you, my love."
Robin laughed as they kissed again.
There ya go! I hope you all enjoyed it. :)
Review Responses:
pk-smash-attack: Thank you! I'm so glad you liked it!
NotSoGreatGamerGirl: Thank you so very much for your kind words! I figured they were happy tears, but I still feel bad. Inigo's a greedy bastard when it comes to Robin, and that's a fact. I'm so happy to hear that you loved the last chapter! :)
verecund: Aww, thank you! Glad you enjoyed it!
EchoMoonHuntress: LMAO, not in that scene. He just wanted cuddling. I always pictured Inigo as the cuddling type, rather than the "I always want sex" type. I'm happy to hear you liked it!
Please review, and don't forget to stay tuned for chapter 4! :D
