"Thank you. I knew you couldn't really be as awful as you said. Drop your sword, there you go. Come here." Once Soutine let the sword fall out of his hand, Piano embraced him, holding him close and nuzzling his face into his neck. "I'll treat your wounds, I promise. You won't be scarred because of me. Let's forget all this." Soutine leaned into Piano's body, breathing him in with the mountain air, remembering how soft he was. With trembling fingers, he reached down and loosened Piano's belt, right next to where Piano stowed his sword. Piano didn't stop him. "I never want to be apart from you, my dear Violin," he whispered, kissing Soutine on the lips. Soutine lifted his hands behind Piano's head. "I love you and I'm sorry," he said as he pulled his face away. "What?"

She was the type to stare herself in the mirror and see someone else stare back. Someone who was free and light, being able to spread her wings like an unbound angel. She was neither chained to Heaven nor Hell. Howbeit, no matter how far she reached into the mirror, she could never step through as her ball-and-chain presented itself in the form of a crown. She was a princess with two faces, desperately trying to have a sense of freedom outside of her royal obligations. She found it in the form of a weakness: a passion with another human being. Her love for him and ballet had kept her chin high; her crown not slipping from her pastel hair. So why, why did it suddenly become so hard when a gothic gymnastic back-flipped into her life? Why were her heartstrings being tugged on by someone of her same gender? Why was it suddenly so difficult, so strenuous to keep living in her pastel world when this mysterious girl brought such bright colours with her?
