Break

Pairing: Éowyn/Éomer
Rating: PG
Note: Y2jai wanted: Éowyn/Éomer. Breathless. Post-quest, romance or UST. And I gave her angst. 100 words.


It should not hurt like this, she thinks, this childhood fancy that she has grown beyond, leaving her far too old for such thoughts, married now, and loved. Still, she can't help but feel such want as she looks upon him, where he stands as bright and shining as the sun, as noble as a king of old. She is breathless with desire, though she masks it well - and she kisses his cheek, and wishes him joy in his marriage and beyond.

When he turns, though, and Éomer's mouth brushes against her own, Éowyn knows that she will break.
