Maggie had requested a special audience with the queen general. All the formal paperwork. Somethings had to be discussed privately. She did not put a reason down only that it was of the utmost importance and was a personal issue.
It was her off duty day, but she had dressed in her finest. Her hair was brushed back nicely and braided back nicely. She wore a lovely dress made of light pink a low v showing off her ample cleavage . It was silky and clung to her curves. And showed off her fine toned body from all her military training. It showed off everything and yet nothing at the same time it was dress that was meant to tease the imagination.
She was sure her dress alone would raise a few eyebrows she just pretended not to notice them. “ I have to go to formal dinner with my grandpa and one of his allies after the meeting “ is what SHE would tell people
She had brought with her her gitturn and her bow and arrow. And a package. Inside if inspected where various exotic candies From various places. If asked why she would just say . “Who doesn't like candy ?” and often when she had bought or received goodies she would share with her fellow soldiers . So it would not be so out of character with her.
Upon entering the office she would salute the queen general in the most respectful and dignified way. The queen would Also smell her perfume now. It held light scents of vanilla and floral with undertones of woody spices.

The Queen was dealing with the backlash from her decision to outlaw the worship of Tyr in the Capitol. Firstly she had closed the church. It was to be expected, truly. Nothing she hadn't accounted for. It meant some extra paperwork arrived in her inbox.
When Maggie arrived on schedule, she set aside her paperwork and stood from her desk, skirting around it. Gesturing towards the small sitting area, Laelia canted her head. "Sergeant, you're looking particularly lovely today. Do you have a special occasion with your husband after our meeting?" The scent of Maggie's perfume was pleasant. A stark contrast to the clean scent of soap mingled with leather and steel.
"Sit. What did you want to speak with me about?" Ever to the point, Laelia wasted little time with pleasantries, always preferring to get straight to the heart of the matter.

Her entire attention was on the queen . Maggie eyes looked soft, Attentive, romantic.she was watching her hips as they skirted around the desk. The way queen smelled was like an aphrodisiac to maggie in fact Lealia could smell like anything right now Nd Maggie would be in love with it .
As she sat down. Across from the queen “ no, no special occasion with my husband” she would hand Lealia the candies. Some of them would taste floral . Some like anise, some spicy, or like a Citrus fruit but all would taste sweet and melt in the mouth
When the queen got to the point, so would Maggie she would start to play a haunting melody the exact same one that came from Lealia mystery box .
And she would sing the poem. Using her bardic far voice. It would sound enchanting, like a siren's voice but Maggie would not add the magic. This was just pure and emotional for Maggie she was pouring her feelings out for the queen.
I am broken by the woman I will never touch By the lips that I will never kiss.
I'm high on emotion there is space between us I can not reach you
I wish it could be the real me and the The gentle curve of your breast with The gentle slide of your hip
I have to hold the breath in my lungs The world leaves a sour taste in my mouth With you I taste honey.
If you were to hold me I would unfold before you, I would tell you that I want to bury my soul in your embrace.
How long will I crave you? as long as your eyes look to the stars , as long as there magic in you, As long as there magic in me, As long as there are seasons.
Until my hunger can be sated my dreams will fade into you.
She then before the queen could respond " Lealia I have loved you you from affair for a long time . I love you more and more with each passing day . Your are moon to my sun , the sky to my earth . I can not breath , until I can taste your lips. Touch you in the most cherished ways . "

Confused, Laelia gingerly accepted the container of candies and set it down beside her once she'd discerned what they were. She had never particularly been a fan of sweets, but the thought was nice, she supposed. Perhaps Calidus would like them.
The Queen sat silently, watching intently as the Sergeant began to play a familiar melody that it took her a moment to place. The strange gift she'd received with a poem. She hadn't given them much thought at the time, chalking it up to some mystery admirer that bore little importance on her life.
But now she realized that the gift had been from Maggie, the poem written from her own feelings for Laelia, and for a brief moment the sinking feeling of dread welled in the pit of her stomach. Maggie spilled her heart and soul to the Queen. It was touching. Heartwarming to hear that someone felt that way about her. And yet the Queen...
Did not reciprocate those feelings.
She flinched inwardly, though it did not show on her stoic features when Maggie mentioned moons and suns and earth. Laelia was reminded of Monet and how her former lover referred to her as the sun and Mordred as the moon. But Maggie couldn't know.
For a long moment Laelia considered how to respond to the heartfelt declaration of Maggie's love. Her lips pursed at the inconvenience of it. She had never asked for the burden of those emotions to be placed upon her shoulders. What expectations could her subordinate truly have?
But could Laelia truly fault Maggie for expressing her feelings? She held affection for the young woman, but in the way of a maternal figure or older sister might. Someone who wanted to see Maggie's full potential shine. If she did not feel that way towards her, she might have had no qualms about carelessly brushing Maggie's declaration aside. But she did not want to destroy Maggie's heart. Would gain no satisfaction in hurting her in such a way. Maggie was loyal, a good soldier, and Laelia genuinely liked her as a person. But she did not love her like a lover.
"Maggie..." Laelia began, forcing her tone to be as gentle as she possibly could. "It isn't often that I am struck speechless." Her hand raised and raked restlessly through her pale hair. "I am truly and honestly flattered and touched that you feel that way about me." And yet her tone indicated a very large 'but'.

After Maggie had said all she could say for the moment she watched the queen..Maggie eyes were excellent so was her intuition and being a faye she could interpret emotions in unique way then other could.
And because Maggie was young and because Maggie was new to romance . Yes she had a silver tongue she was far too young and to inexperienced for it to be golden just yet .
She could feel the mix of emotions in Lealia as she sang the song gave her the candies, she could feel the slight recoil when she used words like sun moon earth but had no idea why.
Her eyes were hopeful, you could practically see the dreams she had of Lealia unfold in those hazel blue and green eyes . And also because of her lack of inexperience Maggie would jump the gun, genuinely misinterpret the tone, because her own expectations would draw the bigger reality for Maggie at this point. When Lealia would raise her hand to draw it through her own hair, Maggie would lean forward and take into her hand and go in for the kiss
And then she heard the words like truly flattered ,honestly , touched.. And at that moment Maggie turned about 50 shades of red embarrassment , foolishness, shame , stupidity all felt in her ..the feelings started in her gut raised through her stomach and settled.in her throat . She was on the verge of either screaming or barfing ..She wasn't sure which..but she waited anyway.

The eagerness in Maggie's eyes served to grind all hope of not breaking her heart into dust. There was no way even the most gentle of letdowns wasn't going to completely crush her. And so she didn't hesitate any further, only tried to keep it as gentle as she could. Maggie's face turned red, and Laelia knew she had already figured it out. There was only the need for Laelia to confirm her suspicions.
She turned her face slightly so that any attempt to kiss her lips would reach her cheek instead. Reaching out, she took hold of Maggie's arms and squeezed them firmly, forcing the sergeant to meet her icy blue gaze.
"Maggie, you are a fine soldier, a loyal friend and I enjoy you for the person you are. I know this will hurt you. That is the last thing I want, and I am hopeful that you will forgive me for that. I do not hold romantic feelings for you." She shook her head. "What I feel for you is the affection of a mentor, an older sister, someone who wants to see you shine because when you do, you are so bright." The corner of her mouth lifted.
"Please don't feel shame in telling me how you feel." She did her best to impress that desire onto Maggie. "If emotions were a thing that a Queen could demand, I would command it of you, Sergeant. You are too bold and too brave to feel embarrassment for expressing love. In truth, the world can use all of the love it can get."

Maggie heard the words no romantic feelings. She could feel her jaw tighten. She also felt dizzy light headed Then that tingling sensation up into the back of her head . She, was gonna barf and the faint . Hopefully she barfed and the fainted .. She was about to run away, to do either one.
Then she felt the firm hand grip of Lealias hands on her arms it grounded her enough.. And the tears started to form in her wide hazel eyes .and then laelia started to speak loving maggie like a sister , a mentor , her work as a soldier. She had worked hard . IT was enough for Maggie to swallow.her her tears down and her feelings of complete and utter disappointment
Then she told Maggie it was okay for her express these things. Easy for her to say ..She wasn't on the other end of the couch. It actually did make Maggie feel a little better . Not quite so ashamed . Especially when she saw the corners of the queen mouth lift . Which would make Maggie lift hers in return
Her eyes not so weepy now .
“ I understand, “ she would say with quivering voice “ thank you “ it was only time now that would make the sergeant feel better. “ if you don't mind ..I would like to leave now “

There was nothing else that Laelia could say now that could help ease the sting of unrequited love. Only time and perhaps perspective could help Maggie now. The Queen nodded in understanding and released the young woman's arms, sitting back on the couch. She wouldn't require Maggie to stay any longer to be self conscious about her declaration.
"You may be dismissed, Sergeant McArthur." Laelia raised her hand to her brow in salute, but her tone was kind to ensure Maggie knew she wasn't simply being 'cast off'.
Once Maggie had left, Laelia let out a heavy sigh and her head fell back. Staring up at the ceiling she muttered to herself. "I almost liked it better when no one liked me." With that, she stood and made her way to the sideboard to pour a finger of scotch before she went back to work.
