Finally Over
Cana gazed into the distance, holding onto Sonata's arm. The bottom of her dress was tattered and stained with blood. A few scratches and tears decorated her sleeves as well."It's over... We can finally be at peace."
Sonata lowered his head grimly. After a two minute silence, Cana decided to speak.

"I believe I spoke harshly before."
"Princess, I love you, too."
Cana gasped, staring into his eyes; The were no longer dull and distant, for that spark of life had returned at last. Without warning, she leaned in and pressed her lips against those of Sonata, as he pulled her close, hands around her waist.
This was all that he wanted. They parted as Cana ran a finger over a long (And rather dashing) scar that ran from his cheekbone, down to the bottom of his face.
"Sonata...You're injured..."
"It doesn't matter, my butterfly. For I earned this scar protecting you."
He took her hand as they walked into the distance.
