「A Red and Yellow Flame Dance」

"How long do you plan to stare at the sky?"

Her golden hair swayed as she turned her head, eyes narrowed.

"Like it concerns you."

He scoffed, no it did not.

She gripped the railing of the beautiful black balcony.

"What do you want."
She growled, he voice full of annoyance, yet you could sense her curiosity.

"Nothing in particular." He smirked soon standing beside her.

She admits it, she felt uneasy whenever in his presence, a horrible feeling deep in her heart.

Then again why wouldn't  she feel uneasy

He was a murderer

A criminal

The person who caused her world to crumble

"Im surprised really."

She raised her brow at his comment.

"You haven't killed me, not even a punch to the face."

She blew a strand of hair away from her face, turning her head away.

"You never know if I have something up my sleeve." He smirked looking at the silver lit sky.

She reacted.

He lay flat against the ground, pinned down, a strong hold around his neck.

Her fist held high

Shaking, trying her best to restrain herself.

He did nothing, frozen on the floor, watching her ever move. Entertaining at most.

"Do it."

Her eyes blazed a beautiful crimson color. Her mind telling her to do it.

Her hand fell as did the grip around his neck. She wanted nothing but to hurt him, yet she couldn't.

"You surprise me."

He lifted himself up, standing tall beside her shaking figure.

"Why can't I do it."

"Even after what you did."
Her eyes flickered red for a moment before returning to their lavender color.

"That's something you need to figure out."

His expression switched to a frown. He turned to face her ,he raised his hand to her, offering it.

Waiting for her reaction once more.

Without raising her head her hand reached up. Taking a hold of his.

She was pulled up and her gaze turned to meet his.

He held a straight face but her reaction was priceless.

She was pulled against him, holding her hand lightly in his, and a hand resting on her side.

A dance position they stood in.

She was shocked and stood in place.
He only moved from side to side, dancing in a small square.

She composed herself but did not push away. Instead finding herself dancing along with the same expression.

Emotionless

She was no stranger to a ball dance, she could easily follow his moves.
She moved with grace and elegance.

They moved slowly to the center of the silver balcony.

They rotated in a circle before he let go, and she did a flawless move. A perfect spin only to land back in his hold.

Dancing the same routine once more.

Only a bit quicker.
As they continued their bodies began to illuminate.

She began to glow, like a gentle flame of a candle.

As for him he too began to illuminate his surroundings. A crimson color glowed off him.

Both seem to shine like a burning flame.

A red and yellow fire dancing a dangerous dance.

It was an amazing sight to see.

Moving along the with such grace and the moon illuminated their red and yellow dance with a beautiful silver glow.

Moving from each side of the balcony.

Taking small steps

He let go of her hand before taking hold of her waist, held firmly against him as she was lifted up and spun.

Carefully placing her down before returning to their previous position.

Returning to the center.

He spun her this time, then taking a hold of her once more.

Together rotating half way before she felt herself drop.

He held a firm grip and she dipped down.

Slowly making her way up with his help.

They held each other's gaze.

No emotion showed.

They released their grip on one another and took a step back.

A bow to end a beautiful night dance.

The colors faded.

The red and yellow faded from their surroundings, leaving them only in the moon's silver light.

Standing in silence.

Someone watching from behind the curtains.

Eyes narrowed, her eyes glowed in the night.

She did not know what to say.

Only to walk away from the dance she encountered between two very well known people to her.

Small footsteps echoed throughout the hall.

He jet black boots marching quietly.

Their heads turned to the dark hallway.

She saw it all.
