After the awkward situation with Anders, I decided to go Varric for relationship advice. Why you ask? Well Isabella isn't really a relationship person, Merrill is Merrill plus I can't go to Anders now or Fenris. So I have only Varric now, so I gotta work with what I have.
The Hanged Man is always crowded with people willing to drink their woes,money or dreams away for a few hours. I saw familiar faces, Isabella overly drinking while men are throwing themselves at her at every second, Merrill talking to Aveline instead of staying at her home with that broken mirror,Anders in the corner talking with one of his assistants and Fenris coming down from Varric quarters.. I couldn't even look at him without saying pain but I love him with my whole being. I'll just walk and talked over to anyone act like I'm not noticing him and pray to the Maker he doesn't see me.
I walked toward a lady, a regular server for the Hanged Man probably taking a break.
"Hey How's the Hanged Man treating you lately?" I joined her at her table.
"It's alright I usually get a surprise every night working here. It's either a drunken brawl over a woman or a drink, casual encounters that started with drinks, or Templars spilling all their orders secrets like a waterfall." She smiled
"Well as long as you like it I guess" her job sounds interesting.
"Era.." A soft voice from behind where I sat. "Do you have a moment" I felt his presence, it was ice down my spine. I was afraid I don't know why though I knew, "knew" him.
I turned and saw it was Fenris standing over me looking determined but soft. "Fenris.. I am" I said farewell to the server and got up from the table. Fenris motion me upstairs to one of the rented rooms. I saw Anders at the corner of my eye, watching us as we headed up stairs. The look on his face was not pleasing.
We reached the room, I walked in and sat at the small table in the corner while Fenris close the door and locked it.
"Era we need to talk" he sound determined
"Talk about what Fenris" A part of me is anger but a part of me wanted to rush over there and kiss this damn elf who cause me this pain.
"About us, about me being a dumbass who got scared and decided to run away from the best thing that ever happen to me, that's what I want to talk, princess." My heart just dropped when he said princess. Damn him ooooooooo he I'm oooooo He knows where to hit me...
"And what does this dumbass want to say?" I didn't mean it, I really didn't.
The look on Fenris's face, the look of defeat. There...there is a tear flowing down his face. I rush towards him and held him.
"Fenris I don't mean it please don't I'm just anger about what happened I'm sorry please Fenris" I cried hard. "Fenris I love you with all my heart, my soul, please..."
"Era, It's okay" as he wipes my tears away "I love you whole" He kissed me and I kissed back.
"You guys made up already?" Varric came out of nowhere. We both looked at him in shocked. Where? How did he..?
"Varric" I walk towards him "Why are you here?"
"Well princess, I do have all the keys to the Hanged Man plus I was wondering where my princess and browdy were? Sorry for being worried" He laughed "You guys can go back to making up but cleaned up afterwards"
"Varric I swear I'll break your face.." Fenris pulled me into him, holding me.
"Feisty as always princess" Varric walked out of the room.
