(Tifa Lockhart x Reader) The Light Of My life...(COMPLETED)

The Flower Princess...

-(1 Week Later)-

(Tifa's POV)

I smiled as a little girl ran up to me with a bunch of beautiful flowers in her hand.

"Here Tifa, these are for you!" She cried, as I took them from her.

"Thank you!"

It's been a whole week already sense we made it to the village. I honestly have come to enjoy this place very much. The farmers are very kind and generous with their crops. They offered me and Aerith a whole bunch of crops for he gang to eat one night, and we had a feast.

The townspeople themselves as well are very nice. If you ever needed help, people would go out of their way to help you no matter what. But today, Tori had business to attend and had asked me and (Y/N) to take care of the kids at the villages orphanage for a few hours. 

We obviously agreed, which brings us to where I am now. Marlene also decided to come as well, bonding with the other children.

"Hey Tifa, I'm bored." A boy said, as he and the group of children made their way towards me with (Y/N) right behind them.

"Bored?" 

"They played tag-for a few minutes-and got-bored." (Y/N) said in between breaths.

"I see.." I glanced at the children, as they looked up at me with sparkling eyes. 

"I know! Tori would tell us a story everytime she visits!"

"Yeah! Do you have a story Tifa?" 

"Hmmmm...." 

"Oh Tifa! Why don't you tell them the story of the Flower Princess!" Marlene said.

"That one? But it's a sad one."

"Pleaseee, you were telling it to me once but I fell asleep midway!" Next thing I knew all the children were now looking at me with pleading expressions. I glanced at (Y/N) who just shrugged.

"Alright then...I'll tell you the story." 

"Yay!" They cried, as they all sat around me. (Y/N) took a seat right next to Marlene as I started my story.

"Once upon a time...long long ago...lived a beautiful princess...who lived in a kingdom high above in the mountains. Where she was from, there was no grass for fields or flowers to grow...so her kingdom has never had flowers of crops for one another."

I could imagine the kingdom, high in the mountains with nothing but rock surrounding it.

"However, in a room high above the castle, the princess had found a patch of grass which she used to grow flowers of her own. Then one day, a queen and her son, the Prince, had come to visit the kingdom. But, when the princess and the Prince had locked eyes they instantly fell in love."

"Oooooooo." The children smirked, making me giggle.

"The Prince and princess then hung around with one another as their love for one another grew deeper and deeper. Then one night, the queen had caught the two of them hanging around with one another and got furious. She then used her powers, sense she was also a witch in disguse, to make a potion for the princess."

The children gripped one another tightly with fear, as I went on.

"She then gave the princess the potion, and turned her into a flower. She then ran away, when the Prince had found out about it. Sad to have lost his lover, he had taken the Flower Princess and decided to find a cure no matter he cost. He tracked through rivers and cities, mountains and across the ocean, years have passed but he could never find a cure. Then one day, as he walked across a grassy field, he fell.....dying slowly of hunger...loneliness...and weakness, he clutched the Flower Princess close to his heart."

"He said to the Flower that he was sorry he couldn't save her...that her life was taken away from her....Then with his final breath he kissed the Flower gently before passing away on that field. Some say, that when you find that feild, youl see two beautiful flowers growing on top of one another. Marking their love, and lost of the other..."

As I finished the story all the children had bursted into tears making me jump.

"THE POOR PRINCESS!" 

"WHY DID THE WITCH DO THAT?!"

"SUCH A SAD STORY"

I sighed as they wiped their eyes, "I told you it was a sad story.." 

I imagined how much pain the Prince must've went through, hoping a praying to see his love again...

"Tifa..."

I'm sure...It was truly painful...like how Cloud had gone out of my reach forever.

All of a sudden I felt someone's warm hand on my back, I glanced back to see...

"Hey, you alright?" (Y/N) asked, with a worried expression.

"Yeah....I'm fine" I smiled, I then realized for some reason now...

I didn't feel that kind of pain anymore..
