@wisehime / @heartreign inquired centuries ago: ✖ ( she's soft & she deserves it )
send me ✖ for a random kiss | come & get y’all juice → 11. kiss on the mouth
Iridescent wings beat against the ashen bones of her ribs, feverishly frenzied by the closeness at which the PRINCESS stood. In a quiet moment, when the world had not seemed as vast, balancing on the edge of a precipice, they shared bow techniques. Zelda’s aim, her speed, it was IMPRESSIVE. Yet another aspect of the young woman that had Fox endlessly fascinated. None as all-encompassing as the small smile playing across the pink hue of her lips. Time split in two. There was only before Zelda smiled and after, and oh, how BRIGHT the world felt after, how weightless.
The entirety of the world blurred. There was no landscape, only washes of colors contrasting against the vibrancy of the Princess. No wind caressed her as softly as the petals of their lips did. A betrayal of Fox’s own body as she leaned in, closing the gap between their mouths. Tasting the smile she was too intoxicated on to register or change her own actions. Sudden and brief and WONDROUS. As quick and as cutting as an arrow finding its mark or the bounce of a bowstring, they parted. Fox stumbling away, creating distance where there should’ve always been. It was WRONG to do as she had done. Such an UNHOLY act to place a kiss upon one as HOLY as she. Beneath freckles, her cheeks burned red. Gaze ripping from the beauty of Zelda’s face to find the dirt, apologies pouring out to water the grass while her heart THUNDERED above.
“Forgive me,” Fox sputtered as another step away was taken. “I did not mean -- " How as she supposed to explain the feelings jumbled in both her head and her heart? That the attachment she felt for the other had grown much stronger than mere friendship, but that she felt unworthy of ever allowing it to become thus. How was Fox to compare to the petals and feathered wings and soft growing things? “I’m sorry, Zel.” How was she supposed to explain that she believed Zelda deserved SO MUCH MORE.
