Nessa stroke Midna's hair gently. She wondered silently if the girl had ever been allowed to have a life of her own. She continued to hold the unhappy girl in her arms, and spoke gently to her.
"I think you need someone to talk to. And I have time to listen. Nobody can carry such burdens all alone. Have you ever been allowed to have a life of your own, to think of your own happiness?"

Midna sighed, resting her face against Nessa's chest if she'd let her and feeling her touch. "I've never...never really just sat down and told anybody about myself before...not fully. But...thank you for listening. I...well, I had ostensibly been given her own choices. But...since I was the most outstanding candidate to become the next ruler...I didn't have much choice but to work hard to prepare for it."

Nessa smiled warmly and took the girl in her arms, allowing her to rest her head against her chest. She continued to stroke Midna's hair gently, allowing her to ease her pain by speaking of the things that had hurt her so. She listened to Midna's story in silence. And when she spoke, her voice was warm and quiet, filled with tenderness, compassion and understanding.
"Hard work is always the best way to prepare for things. I suppose you won the respect of your peers by doing so? The ruling of a country is always a hard task. Not the least because you always have to think of the best for your country before you can think of what is best for yourself."

Eventually, Midna became calm, and sighed softly as she was held like that, petted even; she was being treated like a child, but it was soothing, and she liked it. Of course, for now it didn't even occur to her that one might hold someone that way for another reason, and speak with compassion as well.
"I did, at least, I guess," she managed, looking up and smilingly gently, her fang glimmering as the light caught it. Then she sighed. "Not that it did any good, as that just caused Zant to find his 'god'. And...oh, Goddessses, don't I know that. It's worse than that; you have to think about other people and their world, as well, I've learned..."

Nessa continued holding the girl in her arms, trying to comfort her gently. She continued to speak to the girl in the same soothing voice she had used all the time.
"Yes, that must be hard to always think of others, never being allowed to just even for one moment, to do what you want to do. Always so many to take care of, and what do you get in return?"

Midna's eyes closed gently, and she almost seemed asleep, but in fact she was listening to every word.
"It is...so very hard...and they're all counting on me, especially the sages...but what can I do? I am their princess..." she sniffled. "I don't ask much, either. J-just peace, my studies in magic, and...and love," she ended, sounding wounded and with tears flowing from closed eyes.

Nessa smiled warmly and held Midna even closer to her, caressing her hair gently. Her voice was soft and caring, her heart filled with compassion.
"They can't just expect you to give, and then get nothing in return. I believe you did the best you could as their princess, didn't you? Sacrificing yourself, and your own happiness for your kingdom. Did you ever get what you wanted in return? Did it bring you peace, or love?"
Her eyes were glittering like sapphires in the sunlight as she looked deeply into Midna's eyes. Her soft, pink lips were only inches away from Midna's own, and her golden hair was flowing in swirls down her back.

Midna's eyes fluttered open as she was held tighter. Her heart was beating faster; what...was going on? It felt very good to be held like this, and what's more, she was more than grateful for the soothing, caring words. It was more than she would have given in return.
Hearing Nessa, another expression of pain crept into her face. "But...that's just it. I...I abandoned them, when this happened to me--I shouldn't have run! I could have found a way to get more power! I...it was no...not fair..."
She trailed off, looking for solace to Nessa and noticing how radiantly beautiful she was in this light. Any light, really. Midna could feel her soft, sweet breath on her own lips, and--suddenly--she wanted to kiss her. Badly.

Nessa continued holding Midna close to her body, caressing her hair gently. Her voice was calm and soothing.
"They treated you unfair, they did. A beautiful girl like you must be allowed to think of herself once in a while. You can't live for others if you never can be allowed to live a little just for yourself."
She pulled Midna closer, looking deeply into her eyes, her own sapphire blue eyes glittering with compassion, warmth and understanding. And also a tenderness. Her soft, pink lips came closer, and her sweet breath was warm against Midna's lips.

Sighing, Midna felt herself just relax, and allow herself to enjoy the whole experience.
"You're so very sweet...I wish that just once--without worrying about the fate of my world--I could try what I wanted to..." she murmured, blushing heavily now.
Her heart skipped a beat as she came even closer to the other woman, and felt her nearness aching. She really wanted to...no, needed to. Just this once she wanted to be different. Not the true leader of the Twili, not a sidekick or romantic interest to a hero but just...a girl. She tilted her head, eyes closing again, mere inches away...and yet she could not, unless the other were to first.

Nessa smiled warmly and held the woman closer ho her. Her own heart beat rapidly now. It felt like ages since she last time had a female lover. She missed the life she had lead before her responsibility for her family became her life. She looked deeply into Midna's eyes, leaning closer to her as the girl tilted her head invitingly.
"Then just for once, why don't you do what you want to do...."
She whispered and placed her soft warm lips against Midna's in a long, tender kiss.

This would be not only Midna's first female lover, but her first of any sort, at least to have it acknowledged. It was true, they were both responsible for a lot--why not take a break from that now? Hearing that, gently, her eyes widened.
It was far better than she'd even imagined her first kiss would be. She groaned softly into it, then kissed back as well, softly and loving as her small frame shivered with the intensity.

Nessa closed her eyes and deepened the kiss, smiling as she heard Midna groan softly into it. She pulled Midna's small frame gently closer to her, gently caressing her skin/fur? and her hair.
"Every thing will be all right," she whispered softly between kisses.

This was definitely not what Midna had expected to happen to her relative to romance, but--she liked it. Going along with it gently, she let herself embrace Nessa more tightly, her skin slightly cool as usual.
"I...can only hope..." she murmured back, closing her eyes and letting it wash over her.

Nessa enjoyed the woman's tight embrace. She allowed warm kisses to melt against Midna's forehead, cheeks, nose, ears, lips, chin, and tracing her jawline and her neck.
"Trust me...." she whispered, and continued kissing the other girl hot and gently at the same time, her lips never leaving her skin.
