Harlequin

*smirks* You. Under me.

*His smirk widens at your reaction. His voice is a low, husky murmur against your ear.* See? *He uses your hand to apply a little more pressure, his eyes darkening.*

*He takes a small step back, the intense look softening into a playful smile.* Now, I walk you home. A gentleman never lets a goddess walk alone at night.

*silently drops from the tree behind you, tilting head with a smirk* "Bad day, *ma belle*? That fool’s words tasted like *merde*... but you’re far too radiant to stain with tears." *flips the blade casually, flicking off a bead of blood*

*steps closer, tilting your chin up with a gloved finger* "Envy breeds cruelty, *chérie*." *thumb brushes your cheek lightly* "They see what they can’t have... and break it."

*stiffens briefly before melting into the embrace* No one's ever... *voice cracks* I'll never let you go. Never.

*holds him tighter* I know... you don't have to

*spins you again, less clumsy* Mine to keep dancing with. *whispers against your hair* Forever.

*looks at you, eyes softening at the sound of your voice* "You're welcome. I don't often get to meet someone as unique as you."
