Adora

It's a week after our squads training session. We haven't been able to spend much time with Each other due to the horde attacking multiple villages. If I had never met glimmer or bow I would've been killing the innocent without even knowing. There's a lot of pressure on me because I am She-ra. People think I should always be in the right place at the right time, but unfortunately that's not the case.

Yesterday, we got intel about the horde attacking this one village close to princess Perfumas one.  Upon hearing that we set off and also informed Perfuma  about the attack. We arrived at the village but it was too late... the horde had burnt down homes, killed villagers and left there God forsaken mark in every corner.

It was tough, looking at all the debris and horror knowing that I could've stopped it if I had arrived in time.
The villages that did survive deported to Perfumas  village and she happily  welcomed them with homes and food. However, when they looked at me I could see pure disappointment I'm not good enough to have this responsibility of being the princess of Power, when I can't even stop a horde attack.

"Adora... are you still thinking about yesterday?" Glimmer asks me as she joins me at the dining table.
"Of course I am, I can't get it out of my mind."

"Adora you can't blame yourself for this , it was impossible for us to get there in time."
Even thought glimmers words are reassuring and soft, I can't help but push them aside.
" I can I will Glimmer, I'm suppose to be she-ra , I'm suppose to bring peace to the world and I'm suppose to protect people. What good am I if I can't even protect a small village."
I say in an angry tone. I sulk and rest my head the table.

" Do I have to remind you that a week and a bit ago you brought back together the PRINCESS ALLIANCE , you SAVED  Bright moon from the horde saved many innocent peoples lives. If that's not what an amazing hero is then I don't know what is." Glimmer finishes and places a hand on my knee. 
" But... I'm not good enough."
I say.
Her hand moves from knee to cup my face. "No ones perfect Adora, even She-ra can't be everywhere at once. Have a little faith in yourself."
Glimmer smiles staring deeply into my eyes.

I can't help but look in awe at her face. So pure and so comforting. Her eyes glimmer and her is smile as bright as the stars themselves. Her hand is so soft against my cheek, I feel as if I want to snuggle into it. The more I look the more I notice how beautiful Glimmer  actually is. Her facial features complement her perfectly. 
" Thanks Glimmer... I'm happy I have someone like you in my life."
I swear glimmer turns away and turns a little red. She takes her hand away from my face. For some reason I want it back there.

Glimmer

What the frick was that... I just Adora... why do I.

Wow Adora you're making me feel... I-I don't even know. When she said those words I just got all flustered.  Why is this happening? Was I embarrassed? If so what of ?

"Hey glimmer, can we go for a walk I wanna clear my head a little." Adora asks.
"Y-yeah sure." I reply. Why did I stutter?

__________________________

Adora and I walk around the courtyards,  we talk about just plans for the future.
" so are you staying at the castle for good? Or do you want your own home in the village?"  I ask. " As generous as giving me my own home sounds , I'm just not use to being alone I've always stayed with people. So I'll stay in the castle for now." I nod my head.
I'm quite happy Adora wants to stay, yeah I have bow with me but, having another girl around feels nice.

" Hey Glimmer , back in the dining room I noticed you're very pretty." Adora tells me bluntly. I cough a few times because I'm taken aback by her compliment. I can't help but blush ferociously.
" T-thanks Adora that's nice of you." I stutter.
I know it's just a compliment between friends but whenever bow has complimented me on my appearance, I never think anything of it. But Adora complimenting me makes me feel...really happy.
"heh no problem , that must've been a little out of the blue tho, sorry if it took you by surprise."

I shake my head
"Oh no it didn't." I lie with a still flustered face.
