Fics like A Ring of Emerald

"It's just that," she said, eyes going distant and her smile trembled at the edges. "You remind me of someone who was very dear to me." A single, solitary tear escaped her eye and traced a shining path down her cheek. He felt his hand twitch, itching to swipe it away and lay a hand against her cheek. A gesture so familiar, but now forbidden. He simply watched her, illuminated by the early afternoon sun. What little he saw of her, he cherished. "Your eyes are like his too," she murmured, unaware of the raw and unadulterated adoration in his eyes as he drank in her image, her being. "Like the finest emerald. The colour of new leaves in the Spring." "I am unworthy of such compliments," he said in reply. "But I thank Your Highness for her kind words." Her smile was sad as she regarded him, head bowed in dutiful submission. Reaching out, she gently tipped his chin up, their eyes meeting. It seemed for a moment as though she wanted to say something more, but soon thought better of it. "I shan't keep you from your duties," she said softly and stepped back. "Your Highness," he said, bowing. Only once her footsteps echoed on the cobblestones, did he look up. "My love," he whispered.
