I finally got onto the roof, and I didn't see Brynjolf there. I sat down near the edge, and stared off in the distance.
It had been about two months that him and I have known each other, and its been the best (and worst but for other reasons) 2 months i've ever experienced.
I think I'm going to tell him. I thought to myself. I heard footsteps behind me, and I saw Brynjolf standing there.
"Sorry, Lass, Rune was so drunk he couldn't stand so Sapphire and I had to carry him into his bed." Brynjolf said, laughing. I laughed a little, and he sat next to me.
"It's beautiful..." I said, referring to the moon
He whispered something under his breath, but I couldn't hear what he said.
"I've always wondered why I was named Moon. My parents never had an explanation. I love my name though." I blabbed.
"I love it too. It fits you so well." Brynjolf replied.
I smiled and stared at the moon. I noticed that he was giving me a loving look, but something about the moon was really drawing me in.
I then remembered what I wanted to tell him, and I froze. I was so excited to tell him, but so nervous.
Do I tell him? Do I not tell him? I should just do it.
Here I go-
"Brynjolf, I-"
"Moon, I-"
My eyes widened.
"You first." I said.
"No, you." He replied.
I gulped.
Was now really the best time?
"I'm in love with you-" I said. I immediately closed my eyes. I was terrified that he didn't love me back.
I felt a hand lightly cup my cheek. I opened my eyes to see Brynjolf smiling.
"Lass, I've been in love with you since the day I practically kidnapped you into that alley. I love you so much." He said, looking straight into my eyes.
I smiled and kissed him. He melted into the kiss right away, and I knew we were both smiling.
We pulled away and I laid my head on his shoulder. He put his arm around me and pulled me close.
"By the way, when you said the moon was beautiful, I said 'no wonder your name is moon, since you're the most beautiful thing i've ever seen.'" Brynjolf said.
I smiled and giggled a little bit.
"I love you, Bryn"
"I love you too, Lass."
