Chapter 14
Seria awoke a little later than noon. She looked to Zelda's bed to see she was awake and was silently doing her morning meditating, as usual. She looked over to Ilia to see her yellow clad sister was also awake and was looking at their mother's diary. She sat up and yawned loudly while stretching. She got out of her bed and put her shoes on her tiny feet.
"I'm going out," she told Zelda and Ilia.
"Okay," Ilia said.
"Try to stay in the shadows when in the castle and do not get caught," Zelda instructed.
She nodded slightly before walking out the door of the room they were sleeping in. She walked down the hallway as her sister told her to, in the shadows. She was, however, completely unaware that Sword had spotted her and was now following her out of the castle. She ran across the draw bridge quickly to get back into the shadows and not end up in the dungeon. Sword stayed behind her the whole time but she had no clue he was there. She ran into Wispy Woods, Sword at her heels. He was running after but kept tripping on roots and rocks. He eventually fell over a rock and lost Seria.
"Shoot!" he mumbled to himself.
He got up and ran in the direction Seria just went before he fell. He walked slowly after he ran through a bush that she went through. He tried to figure out a way that he would be able to find her. As he was walking and thinking, he suddenly heard a female voice singing. He followed the voice to a small clearing. What he saw next amazed him. Seria was sitting on a large rock with a small rabbit in her lap that she was petting. Her pink hood that was normally on her head now hung at her neck revealing he long pink hair that touch the ground even though she was high off the ground. She was now singing softly to the animals that had gathered around the rock and her. He carefully walked out from behind the bush he was hiding behind to make himself known to her.
"Seria?" he asked.
Seria's eyes shot open. She quickly put the rabbit on the ground and pulled her hood back over her head.
"S-Sword? What… are you… d-doing here?" she asked, obviously panicked by his arrival.
"I'm sorry if I frightened you," he said.
"It's okay but don't you want to run away?" she questioned.
"Why would I want to do that?" he asked quite confused.
"Well… everyone I met before I came here, both boyfriends and just friends, didn't want to see me anymore after I showed them my face," she explained.
"That's horrible!" he yelled.
"I knew you would say that about my face eventually," she said as she burst into tears.
"What? No Seria. I was saying that it was horrible that anybody would push you away because of your face."
"Why? Because it's so hideous people should take pity on me?"
"That's not it."
"Then why?"
"Because your face is so beautiful."
She froze when he said this. Nobody, besides her sister, told her that her face was beautiful. Especially not men.
"B-beautiful?"
"Yes Seria. Your face is gorgeous."
"Please don't lie to me Sword."
"I'm not lying to you. I would never lie to a woman with such a beautiful face."
"Sword…"
Sword grabbed Seria's arm with one hand and put his other hand on her face, causing her hood to fall back once more. He looked at her tear stained face and red eyes. He used his hand to trace her pointed cheek bone. He looked into her hot pink eyes as she looked at him through her medium sized eye lashes. He took note of her small pointed nose and little pink lips. She had a tiny tint of pink on her eyelids to complete the look.
"You are beautiful Seria. I swear on my sword that you are."
"I wish I could believe that."
"What can I do to make you believe me?" he asked disappointed.
She looked down in sadness and thought.
"Tell me why the others ran away when they saw my face."
Sword didn't have an answer for this. He would have had to been there when it happened, but he wasn't. It wouldn't work. She would never believe him… unless. He got an idea that was crazy and just might work for him.
"Wait! I have a better idea Seria!" he shouted happily.
"What?"
"Hold on…" he said.
Her heart began to beat out of nervousness.
"Close you eyes…"
She gulped and squeezed her eyes shut. She kept her eyes closed even though she could hear the rattle of what sounded like armor hitting a rock. She gulped once more. She was terrified to even see at what was going on. What brought her to open her eyes was the pressure on her lips. Her eyes shot open at this pressure. She was shocked to find that this pressure was Sword's lips on hers'. He was kissing her! She didn't push him away though. She just lightly kissed him back while taking in the features of his face after noticing his helmet lying beside him. His, also, pointed featured face. His sapphire blue eyes. His purple and brown hair. The feeling of his lips, which were slightly rough but also very soft at the same time. To her, nothing else mattered or compared to this. (AN: Nobody knows what Sword and Blade actually look like so I just made it up.) He pulled away after a minute to allow both of them to breathe. The both only panted slightly.
"What… was… that…Sword?" Seria asked, taking time to breath between words.
"Proof… that I'm… telling the truth," he replied.
"Good proof," she admitted.
"Thank you. Came out of the blue though didn't it?" he asked nervously.
"Who cares!" she shouted then added, "And you know what?"
"What?"
She grabbed the sides of his face and pulled him so his lips were molded to hers in another kiss. Except this time she had started it and was kissing him with more vigor than before. Sword began to see stars and flashes of light as Seria continued to kiss him. She released him about two minutes later to allow them to breathe again. She smiled at him while catching her breath.
"I liked it," she finally replied.
He was still in a daze from the kiss but managed to smile at her in reply. She looked up and noticed the sun was going down. She gave Sword a quick kiss on the cheek and pulled her hood back on her head.
"I gotta be back in our room for dinner in about ten minutes. I'd better go," she jumped off the rock with Sword following suit.
He picked up his helmet and secured it back on his head.
"I'll see ya later Sword. Bye!" she said as she ran off.
"Bye Seria!" he yelled back.
He began to walk back to the castle several yards behind her.
Seria came into the room about five minutes before dinner. Ilia was setting the table and Zelda was putting sauce on the meat. She sat down in her chair when Zelda put the meat and vegetables on the table. Ilia and Zelda sat down in their chairs. They began eating when the questions began.
"So, what did you two do today?" Zelda asked.
"I read mom's diary in a canyon," Ilia said with a shrug.
"Okay. What about you Seria?" Zelda said sweetly.
"I sang with the animals in the forest," Seria lied.
"What about you Zelda?" Ilia asked their blue clad sister.
"I meditated in our room all day," she replied.
"Alright," Ilia said with a chuckle.
