Let the world stop turning,
Let the sun stop burning,
Let them tell me love's not worth going through.
If it all falls apart,
I will know deep in my heart,
The only dream that mattered had come true
...In this life I was loved by you.
- Bette Midler

The room was filled with laughter, shadows consuming what little light was left. Humans walking freely, entering and leaving different rooms.
If anyone would pay close attention, one would see a young woman with crimson hair and emerald eyes entering a hidden room. But of course, these are human's we're talking about, so of course they don't pay attention.
Err...onto the story.
She quietly slipped into the room, making sure that none of the people had followed. The door shut with a loud thud, letting anyone inside know that she had arrived. Pushing her hair from her eyes, she walked over to a large four-poster bed that held a body in it.
A sad smile graced her face, giving her a somewhat innocent beauty. Silently, she lifted herself onto the bed and laid down next to the figure. She placed her arms around the body, pulling herself closer to it.

He opened his eyes slowly, feeling the small body against his. A small smile tugging at the corners of his mouth. His hands began to play with her dress, the dark violet dress that hugged her body perfectly…the dress he had given her. True, it was a dress to his soon-to-be wife, but he thought it suited her better.
He caressed her head, running his fingers through her silkin strands of hair. Traveling down to her neck, and then her shoulders. He sniffed her skin, breathing in her scent of daffodils and chrysanthemums. A small moan escaped his mouth when he felt her body press against his.
She turned to face him and glanced deeply into his dark cerulean eyes. Running her fingers through his snowy hair. He leaned towards her, his face inching closer to hers. Shuddering as she felt his hot breath scold her face. His lips descending onto hers. Claiming them in a heated kiss.
Her arms snaking around his neck, pulling him deeper into the kiss. He groaned, she gasped, taking it as an opportunity, he plunged his tongue between her lips. Tasting her sweet mouth. Tastes assaulting his senses. His eyes closing as he hugged her tightly to him.
He was the first to pull away. She blushed and looked at him.
"What is wrong?"
"It's almost time for me to leave."
"But...you just got here an hour ago!" He turned towards her and cupped her face in his hands.
"I know, but I have a duty, and if I don't..." She nodded in understanding. If he didn't follow his duty, he would be sent back.
"Then go, but promise me one thing?" He sat up from the bed and gazed at her.
"Anything." She crawled over to him, wrapping her arms around his waist.
"Don't forget me..." He nodded and removed her arms from his waist.
"Aishiteru Beryl." He said as he left the room.
"Aishiteru...Artemis" She whispered to the empty room.
