We Only Have One Shot

Chapter 1.5 - First Sight;)

Women have always wanted to be loved. Us silly,vain creatures are hurt so easily, but love easily too. We love sparkly things, and dangly things, and love the cutest things on Mother Earth. So in return, we want double the love for us. But the thing is, we fall out of love so quickly it makes men's head spin. And we never realize that the love we were searching for, was there all along.

Anilyse's POV

It feels good to dance. Even if it is just for the money, to enjoy dancing is one of the greatest pleasures on earth.

In the rain, I was dancing when he first came. That day, I realized the truth about my brother and my parents, and it broke my heart so that I was sobbing while twisting and turning. I didn't think anyone would notice my tears in the rain, so I carried on but when my brother gave me a dark look, I quickly started laughing to make the audience think there was nothing wrong.

And then I saw him. He was limping along the back alley ways and kept to the shadows. I still don't know why I saw him that day, and I probably never will, but I was glad I did. In that instant I saw him, I remembered the joys of dancing again and wanted to share that joy with the broken man I saw.

Walking I couple steps back, I then a did a huge stunt that the audience loved and started ohhhing and awwwing. Looking back, I think that the large crowd and noises never drew him at all, and that it was something else. But for what ever the reason was, he came nearer and eventually was at the very front. Then I started dancing for real, wanting him to become happy with a joyful smile on his face. But it never happened. No matter how hard I tried, he face never cracked a smile, instead it seemed to grow even more sorrowful.

While I was dancing, I had snuck glances at his face, and even though it was harsh and unforgiving, he was undeniably handsome. The angles of his cheeks, strong jawline, and rugged features made him look like a exotic creature, one that was dangerous. I never made eye contact with him, thinking that it would make him feel uncomfortable and instead drew my dance to an end.

The crowd cheered and hollered and wanted an encore, but I was exhausted from the effort I had put into that one dance. My brother came up behind me and put hims arms around me. He had whispered congratulations in my ear for another successful dance and had started steering me away before I remembered to look for the man. By the time I turned around, he had vanished. And with him, a piece of my broken heart had always stayed.

I would've tried to search for the man, but my brother was a scary man to put up with. If he had any idea that I was interested in another man, who knows what he might have done. And so I stayed quiet, spending my days dancing in different towns and nights thinking about the mysterious man. I pined away for him, wanting to see him again, just wanting another look at his face and maybe a normal conversation. But I knew that could never happen, so I locked up my desires in my tattered, and broken heart.

I had no way of knowing that my desires would be fulfilled soon enough, but just not in the way I thought of.
