"What makes ye think that I haven't come up with a few strategies just for dealin' with you?" Skye replied in an irked tone.
Tidas chuckled arrogantly; "Oh, I don't doubt it.. I'm just saying that they won't work."
Skye scoffed before she turned her attention back to her armor. 'He'll see.. He's got no idea what I got in store for him..'
After a bit more bravado from both of them, Tidas' voice turned sincere; "I do believe in you, Skye.. I always have, and always will."
'Damn it.. How do I stay mad at him now? That face is too cute sometimes..'
"Yer lucky yer cute, husband.. Alright! What did ye bring to appease me?! Ima starvin', and we need to leave soon, or we'll be late for the opening ceremony."
After kissing her sweetly, Tidas replied; "Aye, wife.. Can't keep your adoring fans waiting now, can we?"
The next 4 chapters were all inspired by one very special song. If Dawning Skye were ever made into a TV Series/Movies/etc, I would ask them to consider this song for the soundtrack. If you’d like to get a feel for the next few chapters, give it a listen! I own no rights to this song, I am just inspired by it, and think the artist deserves credit for making such moving music:
