Promise (Revali x Reader)

🍃Keep a Secret🍃

After what felt like ages passed, we both pulled away from the kiss.

"So that's a yes."

We stood in silence for a few seconds. My gaze met his, the snow and the moonlight made for such a scene... but I didn't care. I could only look at him. He's so pretty...

"Was I too bold...?" Revali looked away, seemingly ashamed. It's weird to see him not being his cocky self...

"No, no no! Don't worry about it... I loved it."

He smiled and looked back at me.

"I enjoyed it too. But..."

"But?"

"Look, (Y/N)... I'm willing to give us a chance... with a condition."

"And what may that be...?"

"We have to keep it a secret."

"Oh... uhm, sure? Why though?"

"I'm not ready for people to know... we're champions, we can't have weaknesses."

I didn't really understand what he meant by that. Is love a weakness to him?

"Love isn't a weakness, dear... but if you want it this way, I can work with that."

"Thank you..." He smiled relieved.

"Now, I'm freezing my tail up here! Can we go back down? Please?"

I was quite literally shaking in my boots. My snow boots. I didn't put on any of my winter equipment aside from the boots, since I was in a hurry for obvious reasons.

"Oh, sure. wait did you call me 'dear'?"

We started walking back to the village.

"Uhm, yeah? Anything wrong with that?"

"No no! It's just... only when we're alone, okay?"

"Of course, you lovebird." I giggled.

"Oh my gosh that's so much worse."

"Well, too bad! It's staying!" I ran as fast as I could.

"DON'T CALL ME A LOVEBIRD EVER AGAIN." He shouted as he followed me.

"I LIKE IT AND IT'S STAYING!" I laughed.

"I really had a great time with you..." I felt my cheeks blushing.

"And I still can't believe I'm going through with this..." he grunted. "Love is sickening."

"Daw, c'mon. Don't be so moody." I gave him a little smooch. His face immediately went red.

"You're adorable when you blush, you know that?"

"Shut up..."

I laughed. "I should go now... I might have just left without a notice. Father must be worried..."

"Right... don't you ever do something that stupid again."

"Oh, I'd do anything for you." I smiled along with him. He's adorable when he's flustered.

"Shut it, (Y/N)..."

"Okay okay. I'll be on my way then." I shrugged and started walking away.

As soon as I stepped back into Zon'Hirith, I went back home. I was exhausted, yet still so happy...

When I entered the big building that was my house, I spotted my father sitting in his usual spot... he seemed weirdly serene and quiet. He's probably asleep.
