How unfair.
I should be the one giving these to you.
It was rare for them to give gifts to each other. Physical touch and spending their time together, always just the two of them, had been the language of their love. Often, words weren’t necessary to understand each other. They were two hearts beating as one, lovers and equals that would fight side by side.
And then they drifted apart. And it hurt, it hurt so much, a fate worse than death. He was afraid the first time he saw them after being summoned with the powers of the grail. Had they drifted too far away? Was he still part of their memories? The Saber hadn’t know, he had been so worried at the time, sometimes still was, thinking that maybe one day Cú would realize that they deserved someone much better than him, only a chapter in the book of their life.
But there was never a reason to let his insecurities get the best of him.
Seeing the Caster surrounded by flowers made his own heart ache. How did they manage to get all of them? Magic, perhaps? It didn’t matter. Slow, the Saber took a few steps closer until he was standing before his lover. He took their hands in his and gently lifted them to kiss their knuckles. “You’ve no idea how much I love you, how happy you make me. You complete me, my little love. You’re my sun and light.”
