The ! B E A U T I F U L ¡ Lie {Vincent Nightray oneshot}

Lies are amazing things, really - the woman found herself musing as she stared down into the lake's waters at her own reflection. Why did it seem that her reflection seemed more willful than the original? She slapped her hand over the water's surface to break up the reflection of her purple gaze.

Her mind went back to the object of her affections; the blond Nightray with heterochromia.

He was a manipulator, a deceiver, and he was, most of all - a heartbreaker.

Tabby withdrew into herself, drawing her knees up into her chest and wrapping her arms around them. She didn't like thinking of Vincent Nightray; he gave her butterflies in her stomach and made her weak in the knees, even as she was aware of all of his lies.

"What's wrong, Tabby?" came the smooth silky voice that caused her heart to thud several times faster than was normal. Tabby's purple gaze widened as she glanced over her shoulder at the smiling Nightray male, a frown on her face.

She wasn't happy that she had fallen for him, but at the same time he mad her feel such feelings without even trying...

"Nothing's wrong, Vincent."

She slowly slipped on a smile over the frown, rather convincingly Vincent noticed - she was getting better at lying every day. She closed her own eyes to avoid his red and golden gaze focused straight onto her. With her eyes closed she was unaware of how he was moving; only that he had begun moving by the rustling of his clothes.

The next thing she knew his arms were wrapping themselves around her frame and pulling her back into his chest. Vincent chuckled as she stiffened within his arms. He loved manipulating people - especially when he got something out of it...

"You're still a bad liar, my little Tabby." Vincent whispered into her ear, causing the dark red-haired woman to stiffen as his warm breath hit her skin. "I won't ever hurt you."

'Another lie... such a pretty lie...' Tabby mentally stated, screwing her eyes closed and avoided looking at Vincent altogether. Vincent let out another chuckle. 'You're only gonna break my heart...'

"What do you want, Vincent?" she asked timidly, still with her eyes closed.

"MMmmm, nothing at all, actually." He smiled nuzzling into her hair contently. "I love you, Tabby."

'Such a beautiful lie...'
