HELLO MY LITTLE KITTENS! Now I decided to write some song fics for Cenamus! Now just a heads up most of these songs are originally in Japanese but I'll put the English lyrics up and the romanji (anime nut). Enjoy
Song 1: Monochrome no Kiss (Monochrome Kiss) by SID
The monochrome blows
Through our colorless encounter.
I shall entrust each of my pains to you
(deai ni iro wa nakute
MONOKURO fukinukeru
itami goto kimi yudanemashou)
To Stephen, John was much more than a simple friend. Sometimes the Irishman found it odd, they used to be rivals but now they have a very...interesting friendship. They could talk to each other without worry of being judged, share their grievances, and have each others trust. It was almost inevitable...
The unforgiving autumn,
Which forcefully traces my scars, comes
While your cool fingers still beckon me
(kizu ato tsuyoku nazoru
yousha nai aki ga kite
suzushii yubi temaneku mama ni)
At first Stephen thought that these feelings were just from good friendship, or such. He would find himself daydreaming about being in the arms of the Cenation leader and even other things that for a while he wouldn't even admit to himself. But who could blame the poor guy? Frankly John Cena, as it seemed, should just wear a sign that says 'hug me'. But over time Stephen realized that he felt more than the usual friend-friend admiration, but instead it formed into dare he say it attraction.
After I'd melted, you tenderly save
the troublesome, icy me
and toy around with me with a kiss
(toketa ato no yakkai na koori mitai na watashi wo
yasashiku sukutte
uwakuchibiru de asobu)
Stephen, as proud as he was, could admit that sometimes he would lose. After all, didn't that happen to everyone from time to time? But still...those times when he and Big Show had been bitter enemies before TLC when he had been in a match and Big Show came out to interfere, he had honestly thought that he was on his own. But he's beaten the giant before, so he could probably do it again even with the classic-Florida-dirt-bag Dolph Ziggler around, probably. But luckily for him John Cena came to his aid and they were able to make Big Show and Ziggler hurt. Stephen had to admit...when he and John hugged right then and there he felt his heart flutter. Hell sometimes it seems that any physical contact with the other man made butterflies appear in his stomach.
Nevertheless, I search for a single form of love
Your dried eyes tied it to the present from a time far beyond
If I can, I want to end while shrouded this like
Together, we concealed our pale selves; the moon is hiding, too
(sore demo hitotsu no ai no katachi wo sagasu
tooku yori mo ima wo musunda kareta hitomi wa
dekireba kono mama tsutsumarete owaritai
futari de himeta awai hada tsuki mo kakureteru)
Stephen tried to hide his love for his friend, he really did. Although...he did have a hard time coping with it when John was having a thing with AJ Lee, he couldn't help but feel jealous. He knew that John and AJ didn't do it, then again everyone did. But Vickie just had to go and bark up that tree. But he didn't want to interfere with John's feelings for fear of losing the relationship he already had with the Boston-born wrestler. So as long as John was happy, he was happy. But when he found out that AJ had double-crossed John by pushing him off a ladder costing him the Ladders match at TLC his skin turned almost as red as his hair. He actually had half a mind to go and tell the 'witch' off but decided against it, it would just stir up some crap that could be used against him and John, and that was the last thing they both needed. When they talked afterwards John had seen how angry Sheamus was and (much to both of their surprise) John embraced the Irishman. Stephen had frozen in place at the contact, unsure of what to do. He had no idea what it meant, but in the end decided that it was just a friendly hug. It's not like they hadn't done that before. He of course hugged the other man back, for a long time. Stephen wanted it to stay like that forever, but time just wasn't in his favor. But before John let go Stephen could have sworn he felt a pair of warm lips press against the side of his neck. Before he could even ask Cena had hurried out, his face as a red as a cherry.
How many nights
Did I come to love since then?
In the sea of dependence, I forget to even breathe
(are kara ikura ka yoru
suki ni mo narimashita
izon no umi iki mo wasurete)
Even with your captivation, you only leave behind a tepid warmth
In the art of knowing when to quit
I dislike your conceited kisses
(muchuu no sono temae de nama nurusa dake wo nokoshite
hiki kiwa no bigaku
tokuige na kisu kirau)
The small unknown kiss had driven Stephen crazy in questioning. Was it even a kiss or did it just happen? He had become so frustrated to the point where he actually wanted to pull his hair out. But instead of doing that he took out his frustrations in the ring, where he worked best. Not that anyone noticed, he usually was an aggressive fighter. He had been meaning to ask John about the unknown kiss but every time he went to his voice would catch in his throat for a moment before he changed the subject, like after he had been trying to explain the characters of Father Ted to John but then brought up what had been going on with him and AJ. Sure he had been wondering that but he wanted to ask John about the other thing. Sure the feeling of John's breath on his ear was enough to set him on but what John had actually said to him made it hard for him to control his facial expressions. Thank god John had been kidding...Stephen didn't know what he would've done if they were true.
Don't leave me alone, perceive and color me already
What words will slip out of your room?
Being confused, falling asleep- Will you tell me about things beyond those?
Only the moon is looking at the sighs lost in the questions of smiles
(hitori ni shinai de mou sasshite ayamete
dono kotoba mo kimi no heya de wa surinukete iku no
midarete nemutte sore ijyou wo oshiete?
egao no toi ni mayou toiki tsuki dake ga miteru)
When the next long needle points to the ceiling
You won't be around anymore
I won't need you anymore
(tsugi no nagai hari ga tenjyou ni todoku koro ni wa
kimi wa mou inai
watashi wa mou iranai)
Soon enough Stephen began to feel a want, a need for John, a need that kept him up past the very stroke of midnight until he took care of his little problem. He couldn't keep these feelings to himself, but he couldn't think of anyone to tell. So in a way he confessed to the moon, because the moon can keep any secret. It was almost funny, but it helped lift some of the burden off his chest.
Nevertheless, I definitely searched for a form of love
Your teary eyes tied it to the present from a time far beyond
If I can, I want to end while shrouded this like
Your wish and the night bring morning along in vain
(sore de mo tashika ni ai no katachi wo sagashita
tooku yori mo ima wo musunda nureta hitomi wa
dekireba kono mama tsutsumarete owaritai
sono negai wa yoru wa munashiku asa wo tsurete kuru)
One night John invited Stephen into his hotel room for a chat and maybe some drinks. Stephen felt pretty happy around John, so why would he say no? So they talked and even had a few drinks before, on accident, Stephen asked John about the unknown kiss. John had blushed like a school girl and began stuttering like he was trying to hide something. John had even tried to change the subject but seeing how Stephen already brought it up he wasn't going anywhere until he got his answer, the Irish people are known for being stubborn. Long story short it turned out that John had been in the same dilemma as Stephen, only he took a bit more initiative. At first John thought Stephen would hate him and leave him so that's why he never said anything. But the results were just the opposite...
Paint it with a tender, passionate, yet cowardly kiss
(yasashikute atsukute hikyou na KISU de)
Stephen leaned over and gave John a hesitant but tender kiss. John responded almost immediately, pouring more passion into the kiss. They were both so caught up in the moment that Stephen barely even noticed it when John pushed him back onto the bed, resting himself between Stephen's legs. They broke away from the kiss for air and stared at each other for several minutes, unsure of what to think. They loved each other and they wanted to be together, that's all that mattered. So Stephen pulled John down for another long kiss.
The moon illuminates our final night
(irodotte yo saigo no yoru tsuki ga terashiteru)
That night John showed just how much he loved Stephen, the moon as their only witness.
~END~
Now the next one is going to be AU so bear with me. If you've never hear this version of the song oh my god look it up it is BEAUTIFUL!
Song 2: Lacrimosa, sung by Kalafina
Joining harmoniously in the dark
Despair and the future
The moonlight that exposes my sorrow
Shines coldly
(kurayami no naka de mutsumi au
zetsubou to mirai wo
kanashimi wo abaku tsuki akari
tsumetaku terashiteta)
Every night they would meet like this, with John sneaking out of his room in the castle to meet his beloved by the river in the moonlight. All day John had to meet with several princesses because his father, the King, wanted him to have a noble queen by his side when he became ruler of the land. While these princesses were very beautiful, none of them compared to his beloved. The princesses had beauty but they didn't have the brains to back it up, but his beloved was smart, cunning, strong, and was blessed with the beauty of an angel.
With the secret you gave me as a companion
I proceed into the silence of the blue night
(kimi no kureta himitsu wo shirube ni
aoi yoru no shizukesa wo yuku)
He quickly made his way through the woods, relying only on the light of the moon to lead his way, for lighting a torch would set off the guards. He made his way to a small clearing with a small river with smooth pebbles as its shore. The moonlight reflected off the water and the fireflies sitting in the beautiful water lilies floating in the water were a lot like lanterns. The fireflies not resting in the water lilies made it look like the stars had come down to dance. He saw his beloved crouched down by the water petting the head of a seemingly tame duck and her babies. The light of the fire flies reflected off his beloved's pale skin and fiery red hair making it look like a picture of a fairy tale.
Lacrimosa
Broken and vanishing into the distance
I want to love this dazzling world once more
I hide my dreams within my eyes
Until my tainted heart
Receives falling tears
(Lacrimosa
tooku kudakete kieta
mabushii sekai wo mou ichido aishitai
hitomi no naka ni yume wo kakushite
yogoreta kokoro ni
namida ga ochite kuru made)
John took a little time to gaze at his beloved happily before speaking. "You seem to be enjoying yourself." He said in a low whisper.
His beloved jerked his head towards his way, but smiled and relaxed when he saw who it was. "Every time I come here I feed the ducks so they always swarm me. They must really like bread and gruel."
His beloved stood up and faced John. John's beloved was dressed as peasant, for he was just that, and stood at a staggering 6'4". His skin was as pale as the purest of milks which went perfectly with his red hair and beautiful blue eyes. He was absolutely perfect in John's eyes. John walked over to his beloved and embraced him giving him a slow and passionate kiss. His beloved returned the kiss and wrapped his arms around John's neck. When his lungs were about to burst John pulled back from the kiss to gaze deeply into his beloved's eyes.
"How was your day, my lovely Stephen?" John asked sweetly.
His beloved, a peasant man by the name of Stephen Farrelly, sighed and rested his head on John's shoulder. "It was tiring, as usual. You would think that people would consider pit fighting as a slave crime, but seeing how they pay us I guess you can't call it that."
John's beloved Stephen worked as a 'pit fighter', which is when they throw two guys in a pit and see who walks out. The winner gets paid some money and these fights are held almost every day. Men and woman fight in it mainly for extra money or if they desperately need the coin for extra food during winter. But you had to be crazy and desperate to even step foot in that pit. The fights usually get really dirty and bloody and there are some cases where one of the competitors would die before they get to the healer. Luckily for Stephen his own mother is the healer, but the ingredients she needs for her medicines cost money so Stephen would fight in the pit to get that money. Stephen didn't want to be some farmer that gets paid a penny for back-breaking work, plus he loved a good fight. His mother charged a lot less than the traditional doctors did so the people of the town relied on her for medical treatment. In other words without her there would be even more poverty. John held Stephen closer to him and rested his cheek on his beloved's head.
"Well if they ever hurt you more than you can handle...I'll mess them up so badly they won't even know what hit them."
John felt his beloved chuckle. "Yeah...I know you will. Just try not to get yourself into too much trouble, John."
Now it was John's turn to chuckle. "Please...sneaking out here just to see you would already get me into more trouble than if I rearranged some guy's face." He took his beloved's face in his hands and touched their noses together. "But I'm willing to take the risk."
They smiled at each other and shared another long kiss together, unaware of the danger that hung in the air or the event going on in the castle John had left that would change the life of the kingdom forever.
A phantom carriage parts the darkness
On its way to where there is light
The trap known as dreams
Lures us into the inferno
(maboroshi no basha wa yami wo wake
hikari no aru hou he
yume to iu wana ga bokutachi wo
homura he izanau)
John, surrounded by his advisers looked down upon the coffin that contained his father's body with a face mixed with remorse, regret, and even a little anger. The night he had sneaked out to see his beloved Stephen his father had been murdered in his sleep. His body was discovered by a servant who came to serve him breakfast in the morning only to find a lacerated body with multiple stab wounds covered in blood. John hadn't returned until that morning, right before the panicked servants went to check on him to see if he was still alive. But while he was still alive his room had been ransacked, which meant the murderer of his father had intended to take his life as well. His excuse to not being in his room when the murderer came was that he decided to take a walk in the woods and had fallen asleep listening to the night birds, which was believable because he was known to lounge in the grass in the heat of the sun from time to time. The whole kingdom had been ordered to come here for the funeral of the king, so his beloved Stephen was there too. He lifted his gaze from his father's coffin to the crowd, searching for his beloved in hopes that his face would relieve some of the pain he felt within himself. On the right, in the middle surrounded by people a little shorter than him, he found his beloved looking at him with a saddened face filled with pity and even a little regret. They locked eyes and stared at each other for the entire ceremony, which John was grateful for because without his beloved he might have not been able to take all the emotions going through his mind. As soon as the ceremony John was whisked away by his advisers so he wasn't able to see his beloved leave.
To the merciless gods above the sky
No cry will get through
Lacrimosa...
(sora no ue no mujihi na kamigami ni wa
donna sakebi mo todoki wa shinai
Lacrimosa...)
"You can't do that to me!" John yelled at his head adviser, his voice echoing off the walls of the court room.
The head adviser Paul Heyman, leaned forward in his chair and to coldly glare at the prince. "Actually, I believe I can. As your head adviser I'll do what I decide is best for your safety."
"By locking me in my room?! I hardly think that would keep me safe from an assassin!"
"We would have guards stand by at all times. We need to protect you from the mysterious assassin at least until your coronation."
"That won't work! If they were able to murder my father they sure as hell could take down two guards easily!" John rarely swore, and usually when he does he's just using it for a joke and not because he's angry.
Even so, Paul Heyman didn't budge. "Then we'll get more guards and hire someone if we have to. The bottom line is you are not leaving your room until I say otherwise." He waved some guards over. "Now we're finished here so I'll have these two gentlemen escort you to your chambers, for the sake of your safety. Also, just in case..."
John jumped when he felt his hands being pulled behind his back and cold metal cuffs bind his hands together. He tried to fight it, but the guards just restrained him even more. "What the HELL are you doing? Let go of me!"
He looked back at Paul Heyman to see a devilish grim on the large man's face. "Don't think I don't know about your fighting spirit, this is just to make sure you don't run away to see your little friend."
John glared at Paul Heyman and yelled various curses at the man before being dragged out of the court room.
Let us become firewood that has been burnt until we are hollow
And burn that sky until it is no more
(bokura wa moesakaru takigi tonari
itsuka sono sora wo yaki tsuku sou)
'How does Paul Heyman know about Stephen?' John thought as the guards pushed him along the hallway. 'The only way he could know about him is if he watched me all the time, not even my father knew about Stephen! Come to think of it I didn't see him at my father's funeral...'
John's eyes became wide as something clicked in his mind. He remembered hearing his father talking about how Paul Heyman used to be aligned with the prince from their rival kingdom. Could it be possible that Heyman is aiding their assassins against him? He didn't want to wait around to find out. He doubled over in a coughing fit making the guards drop their grip of him and ask him if he was alright. Before they could even blink he head butted one and hit the other one where it hurts. He jumped up and was able to get his hands in from of him once again. He grabbed the keys from one of the guards and unlocked himself. The one he head butted was out cold so he locked the one that wasn't quite asleep to a bar on one of the windows nearby. By this time the sun had begun to set. He quickly ran to his room and without even bothering to check if someone was on the walkway of the castle wall that was beneath his window he jumped down accidentally stuck his landing on some guy. The other guard a little ways away saw him and yelled something. John grabbed the fallen man's spear and ran at the guy yelling and jammed him in the gut with the butt of the spear. Without a second thought John ran and jumped of the wall. Before he hit the ground he jammed the sharp end of the spear into the dirt and landed on the handle, his weight causing it to snap but giving him a safe landing. He hear a bell go off, signaling everyone in the castle that a prisoner escaped. He knew what the guards would do if that happened. He scrambled to his feet and sprinted for the forest. He heard more yelling and a sharp noise from behind him. He dared to look back as flaming arrows began to descend onto the field. He made it behind a tree just in time before the arrows pierced the ground setting the grass on fire. Luckily for him most of the forest ground was dirt so if he went further in he would be generally safe from the flames. He looked back at his home one more time before sprinting in the woods to find his beloved. As he ran he dreaded of what might have happened to his beloved Stephen. If Heyman knew about him he would use his love for the peasant against him in order to get the way of his masters, whomever they may be.
Lacrimosa
Fallen and born here
I want to love this blood-soaked world without fear
Instead of being forgiven, forgive and have faith
And remain on the face of this earth
To count the tearful days that pass
(Lacrimosa
koko ni umarete ochita
chi nureta sekai wo osorezu ni aishitai
yurusareru yori yurushi shinjite
yogoreta chijou de
namida no hibi wo kazoete)
When he finally made it to the river he doubled over panting. It was dark so he could barely see his own two feet.
"John?"
John looked up and saw his beloved Stephen once again sitting on the banks of the river, but he was looking at him with worry. Before Stephen could move John ran over to him and embraced him.
"Oh thank god you're safe!"
Stephen froze at first, but embraced John back. "John...what's wrong?"
John moved back a little and took his beloved Stephen's face in his hands, only this time in a more distressed manor. "Stephen...the adviser Heyman was the one who killed my father, I just know it! He used to be aligned with that other punk prince and now I think they're working together again. He wasn't able to kill me because I was with you, but now he knows about you. I don't know if he knows the extent of our relationship but I don't want to find out. Steph what I'm trying to say is...is..." he gulped a little. "I want you to run away with me, because if you stay here Heyman would hurt you and it would kill me to see you in that kind of pain. Please..."

Stephen looked at John with wide eyes for a moment before kissing him sweetly. "I'll go with you...but you have to promise me something John."
"What is it? I'll do anything!"
Stephen looked at him seriously before speaking. "We have to return one day so that the kingdom won't be left to a tyrant."
John nodded. "Yes...we'll return and I'll take my place as king..." he smirked a little "...and you'll be my lovely queen."
They shared one last long kiss before they disappeared into the together.
