War & Love - Revali x Reader

Chapter 8

Revali's p.o.v.

My head is hurting so much, it was like as if it want to explode. This is reminding me of a mining Goron, how they hammer against the rocks. I can barely open my eyes. Who is yelling there? Please stop it hurts! Just a little glance... (Y/N)? And on top of that she is crying. This has to be a dream. The position I am laying in is not feeling good, I have to turn around. Maybe this dream will stop then.

I am waking up again but it looks like some time has passed because it is night now. My stomach is grumbling, I feel like I have not eaten the whole day. Where I am anyway? I have to turn around and take look. Oh, I am at my flight range. How did I come here and why is my head so hurting?

Now I remember the fight and how I pushed (Y/N) away. The Hinox took a tree trunk and wanted to hit (Y/N) but instead it hit me. I cannot believe I did that. There was not even a thank you or something else. Now I am even left alone here. Pfff... what a friend. Or should I better say what a rival? It does not matter.

The smell of something delicious is reaching my beak and after looking around, I see the hearty raddish soup. Oh, mom must have made it for me. She knows it is my favorite. But why is she not here? I know her wings are hurting and I guess she went home to rest. Thank you mom, even if you have pain you are looking out for me.

Mmhhh... this soup is delicious. This is the best soup she ever made. She must have used different spices now. And the bread looks fresh too. My stomach is full now and I am tired again. Time again for some sleep.

No one's p.o.v.

When you saw Revali moving you instantly hid yourself in the shadows. He was really getting up this time. You watched him as he was looking around confused. No wonder, the poor one fell unconscious at Tabantha Village and waked up at the flight range. After making sure he was alone he dig in your soup. Either he is starving or the soup is so good.

It was nighttime and almost midnight. He fell asleep and you did not want to let him alone there at night. This is why you decided to sleep there as well. You cleaned up the cooking pot and put more logs into the fire, so it can keep you warm at night. After finishing everything you took your on blanked and laid down on the other side of the pot.

In the morning, you felt some chill running down your spine, which waked you up. You saw the fire was out and made a new one. "This is much better now. Ok Revali, do you want to eat some Salmon Meuniere? It should help you healing faster. This is the only dish I can cook now. After this, I have to buy new ingredients."

Talking with yourself was kind of calming. You knew exactly there is not going to be an answer but this way you can pretend, everything is alright. "Soon enough you are going to argue with me again, but until then you have to become strong and healthy again. Look how peaceful you are now, why can't you be always like this? I don't know what I did wrong and why you are so mean to me"

"Because I want to be the best and sometimes we need to make sacrifices for our dreams" he murmured. His eyes were closed but he heard you. 'Is he dreaming? Maybe I should take this opportunity to ask him some things' you thought. "I am one of the sacrifices?"

"Yes, there is only one who can be the best" This answer worsened your mood and made you sad. You expected it to hear that but to hear in real was hurting. 'Why did I even ask, I knew the answer. Maybe it is time to go home for an hour or two' you sighed.

Revali's p.o.v.

Again I had a dream of (Y/N) but this time we were talking. Why did I say I had to make sacrifices? I mean, it is true but no one should know this, this is mean, even for me. The others should know me as the best archer and warrior and not as a cold-hearted person. It does not matter now, it is too late anyways.

There is again a nice smell. Let's see what mom cooked this time.... Oh, Salmon Meuniere, nice! It looks like she slept here because there is another blanket. I hope I catch her next time she is here. It is annoying to sleep so much. This time should be used for training. I just hope to get better soon.
