Thread: I Always Wanted You (how_is_you x N7Biotic)

A little chuckle escaped Fayeth's lips as she watched Rydel rapidly eating the meal his own sister had made for them. She's never seen him eat so quickly before. However, Fayeth simply concluded that her brother was simply just as hungry as she suspected him being. After all, they spent most of the day just trying to catch up on everything and she knew the journey from the capital to their humble elvish village was a long ride, so she doubted he got to eat much at all today, but seeing him enjoying her cooking was perhaps one of the best sights she's seen in the past few years. Even the little shocked expression he made made her smile. At first, she was worried that she somehow got worse rather then better and half expected him to spit out the spoonful he let in his mouth, but the moment he kept eating with vigor relieved her a bit. Her cooking shouldn't be that bad at least, or else he was trying to spare her feelings, either way, it made her feel warm inside knowing she was making him happy in some way. Compared to Rydel, Fayeth was eating rather slowly, almost at a snail's pace compared to her brother scarfing down every spoonful of stew he brought up to his lips. She was even a bit surprised to see him barely even chewing when a chuck of meat passed his lips, while she herself carefully chewed her own, but again, she assumed it was because he was starving. It was hard to keep herself from smiling seeing him near her, enjoying her cooking, hoping that maybe she would be able to cook him many more meals that he would love as someone more then just his sister. Rydel finished faster then Fayeth did, unsurprisingly due to the fact he nearly swallowed down nearly every drop she had given him at a speed that made her worry that he would choke on a chunk of meat or vegetable. Hearing him compliment her cooking made a little shy grin grow on her face as her cheeks turned a little red. I'm glad you liked it, I've been trying to get better since you left since I didn't want to poison you on the day you came back to me. She joked a little, before chuckling a little as Rydel let out a belch. She rolled her eyes a little at him, but smiled and replied teasingly, I'll take that as a compliment. Fayeth couldn't help but admire the way his cheeks reddened in his embarrassment. There was something oddly cute about her brother when he was embarrassed. She just couldn't stop herself from thinking about how cute the redness in his cheeks looked and fought the urge to touch them by trying to focus on her own meal. In truth, Fayeth hadn't eaten much. She wasn't really hungry, but didn't want her brother to be worried either, so she forced herself to eat a few bites at least. It wasn't like she had already eaten before he arrived or was a bit under the weather, it was her nerves that made it hard for her to bring the spoon up to her lips. Tomorrow was the day that she would confess her feelings to him and her mind was buzzing with things she had to do before hand to prepare for the moment she both looked forward to and dreaded all at once. She just hoped that she wasn't making an awful mistake. After forcing herself to swallow another spoonful, officially eating a little over half of her meal, Fayeth sighed happily and let out a soft yawn, covering her mouth politely as she did. Mmm...that was nice. She smiled a bit at him, before taking her bowl and going to the kitchen to clean up her mess. After a brief moment of silence, Fayeth finally spoke up as she finished cleaning up her dishes, If you're still hungry, there's plenty left. It's getting late though, so I think I'll head to bed for now. She dried her hands off with a cloth before turning to walk towards her brother, placing a kiss on his cheek and saying softly with her sweet voice, I'm happy you're home. She started to head for her room when she added, Good night Ry, I'll see you in the morning. She smiled, before opening the door to her room and stepping inside. A sigh left her lips once the door closed behind her. So far, everything was so nice. She finally felt whole with her brother back home with her, but Fayeth couldn't think about today too much, when she had to prepare for tomorrow. Fayeth lit the candle that sat on her writing table and pulled out a couple of sheets of paper, a bottle of ink, and a quill to write with. She sat down and thought hard about what she was going to write, but ended up rewriting her letters over and over again, never truly satisfied with what they contained for what felt like hours. It was well into the night when her writings felt as good as they could possibly be. Her hand ached from her rapid scribbling trying to find a way to put her thoughts into words until she realized the simplest route was the best idea. Feeling a bit content with herself, Fayeth tucked the letter away in the drawer of her table, before blowing her candle out to finally allowing herself to lay in her own soft bed. All she had to do know, was wait until morning, and everything would be set in place for Rydel to finally learn the truth.
