Long-Awaited Confession - A Wil Ohmsford x Reader Oneshot

Amberle sacrificed herself instead of me to become a part of the Ellcrys.

That's how all this started.

It began just like normal. Amberle and I decided that there should be some female Chosen, to motivate the younger girls that society shouldn't hold them back from what they truly believed in. Once, we both got in, things started... changing.

It started with visions and whispers. When I told Amberle about them, she said she had the same.

Then, the Druid Allanon came along with his apprentice half-elf Wil Ohmsford. They told us a bunch of crap about saving the world we know from demons that are escaping, one by one as the leaves of the Ellcrys fell to the ground. And it is as daunting as it sounds.

The moment we realized one of us had to sacrifice the life they had, I was certain it was going to be me.

I mean, Amberle had people that cared for her. A boyfriend who was willing to die for her safety. And an important position that only she would be able to uphold. But, she didn't agree, and laid down her life the moment we heard. Amberle didn't even give me time to protest.

It all hit hard, but mostly for Wil.

Only the Gods knew how much I loved him. He was so sweet and so silly. Not to mention, the bravery and courage he showed to everyone when the battle neared us. The battle was a lot for me to take. The idea of him falling down at the strike of a demon was enough to bring me nightmares.

I should've known he would manage.

I sighed, leaning back against the tree as I settled myself on the highest branch, scratches covering the revealed spots of skin from climbing up the tree. The sun was setting in the distance, disappearing behind the mountains. Despite it being the middle of summer, because of the high altitude, the tips of the mountains were still covered in this brightening white of snow.

''...can't continue this, Wil.''

The voices of Allanon and Wil beneath me brought my attention back down. I was so high up, the figures weren't that clear for me. But I realized who they were before seeing them.

''I'm sorry, but she meant a lot to me, Allanon. It's hard to forget someone instantly when you cared for them with your entire being.''

My heart dropped to my stomach.

They were talking about Amberle.

I got up a bit and started climbing to the tip of the branch, trying to still keep an eye on the two men as they went on with their conversation. It surprised me that they hadn't caught me yet. The branches were creaking a lot at the movement of my weight switching spots.

''Nobody knows that more than I do, Will, as I've lost people, too. But we can't stand still by it too long. You need to accept she's gone, and go forth. Isn't that what Amberle would've wanted?''

A tear fell down my cheek. It dripped down my chin and down onto the blonde man beneath me. The feeling of water on his hand caused him to look up, but I realized it quickly enough, making sure I was heading behind the roof of leaves.

His eyes raked over the tree before settling back down.

His undivided attention went back to Allanon, ''I'll try.''

Allanon nodded, ''Good. Now, have you gotten any idea where Y/N is? We need to treat her wounds before she's at risk of infection.''

Wil shook his head.

I was leaning back against the tree, waiting for their retreating footsteps till I climbed down. I scratched myself a few more times. My feet hit the ground and the first thing I noticed was the sound of rustling, followed by a looming shadow hovering over my body.

I spun around my heels, eyes slightly widened at the sight of Wil, ''Hi.''

''Hi.'' He smiled at me, arms crossed over his chest.

I looked back and forth between him, anxiety washing over me.

''Do you want something?''

''You tell me,'' he stepped closer, ''since you heard everything when you were right above us.''

I turned red, but pretended like it was the cold breeze, ''What? Pffft, no,'' he tilted his head, challenging me, ''what are you talking about?''

''Please. I know you better than that.''

I didn't say a thing and just made a run for it. Allanon was waiting for me anyway.

-

The minute Allanon was done, I stepped out of the hut and froze when I saw Wil waiting. Apparently our conversation wasn't embarrassing enough. His gaze fell on me, his feet bringing him closer to me.

The moment he was in a close proximity to me, I didn't think for another second and wrapped my arms around his neck.

His body stiffened but relaxed not that soon after.

''I miss her, too.''

His head dropped to my shoulders, his arms wrapping itself around my waist. I felt the tears on my shoulders and let him cry for a bit.

Soon, he composed himself again and pulled something out of his bag. It was a piece of my favorite fruit.

A smile covered on my face, ''Is... that for me?''

''Well, yeah,'' he glanced between me and the fruit in his extended hand, ''I thought it might sweeten the conversation we're about to have.''

''Oh? Will it be that awful?''

He shrugged, ''I don't think so, at least, not if it goes the way I want it to.''

I took the fruit, taking a bite and let him lead the way. He had found this quiet spot near the creek where he dragged this log to serve as our bench.

It felt romantic.

''Have a seat.''

His arms motioned for a spot and I thanked him, listening to him. He didn't stand there long after and sat down beside me, a silence wafting over us.

''You want a piece?'' I held it out.

His eyes met mine and nodded, taking a bite from the fruit in my hand. Some of the juice went down the corner of his mouth. A chuckle escaped my mouth.

''You'd think a man your age would be able to eat without spilling.'' His cheeks turned red at my comment, but I didn't notice as I ripped a piece from my shirt and gently patted it against the dripping juice.

The moment slowed down, the both of us just looking at each other.

His eyes met mine and they held them, in a sort of hypnotic way. My heart started pounding two times faster and the butterflies in my stomach went on a rampage at the sight of his gaze. He cleared his throat and the minute I heard it, I turned my head around.

''Here.'' He accepted the piece of ripped clothing with a silent thanks.

After a needed silence, I spoke up, ''What would you like to talk about?''

''Oh, uhm,'' he cleared his throat, turning to me, ''I would like to speak about... us?''

''Us?''

''Yeah. I know it's a bit sudden, and I don't really know if there really is an 'us', and if it's not, I would like there to be if you would want it, but don't feel obliged to ac-''

''There already was an us,'' I smiled shyly, eyes moving away from him, ''I think there was an us the second I met you. Do you remember? You were searching for me and Amberle at Aunt Pyria's-''

He started laughing, ''Yeah, it wasn't my finest moment.''

''Mine neither.''

The heaviness between us got a bit lighter, making it easier to face each other.

''With Amberle and the whole Ellcrys thing, it's been a lot. But she shared something that I thought we needed to talk about.''

I hummed, waiting for his response to clarify.

He grabbed my hands, ''Do you... feel something... for me?''

''Oh,'' I was surprised at the bluntness, ''uhm... y-yeah. I guess so.''

He sighed in relief, ''Good, otherwise this conversation was about to get real awkward real fast.''

I chuckled.

''You see, me and Amberle had a talk before that. We had some moments between us, but we both weren't willing to move on it. I don't have a clear idea on why she didn't want it, but I knew I didn't want to because there was someone else I had an eye on. I love you, Y/N.''

The shock kept me silent. The only thing between us was his soft pants, anticipating my reaction, and me blinking at him like I was stupid.

I shook my head, ''You don't have to say that because she spilled the beans about my feelings. I would accept it-''

''I really, really do love you, Y/N, and it doesn't have anything to do with me not wanting to hurt you. Sure, I don't want to do that, but I'm not willing to lead you on to spare you the pain. It's the whole truth. I care about you, and I want to be with you.''

He waited for my reaction.

I was speechless.

No words came to mind as I let his words sit and soak into my mind, making me jump in action. I leaned forward, pressing my lips against his briefly.

He was shocked as I pulled back with a smile, ''I love you, too, Wil.''

A smile came on his face and with one hand on my cheek, he leaned back towards me and pulled me into another kiss. This one coming from the both of us and a bit more passionate.

His lips were as soft as I always dreamt they were, but the kissing was way better than any of my hopes and dreams of it.

My lips moved in sync with his.

The minute we pulled away, his forehead connected against mine. The both of us were a panting mess, but we couldn't be happier.

''Hey, love birds,'' Allanon called with a grin, ''dinner's ready.''

We chuckled and nodded. I grabbed his hand when he wanted to pull me up, and with my hand in his we made our way.

Eretria was already eating up her portion, her eyes not leaving mine once as soon as she saw the hand-holding.

''What'd I miss?''

''I'll tell you later.'' I chuckled, Wil not leaving my side once.
