For MiladyQueenMab. It would be blasphemy (big word :o) to NOT dedicate something to someone as awesome as you :) Even if it's something as short and crappy as this (I sincerely apologize...really, I do).
Sanctum
His eyes told the tale of a life - a life that, while not the most satisfying, was well-lived.
Crimson irises framed by long lashes, one might be stunned by their beauty at first glance. Such eyes overflowed with the impossible, but hid it well. They wore the stresses and pains of his most agonizing moments, yet dim irony and happiness from sources that remained untold. Most often they were filled with coldness, to keep people away, but beyond that, a longing for light, warmth. They had seen so much, for so long. And, although visible, just looking didn't bring about understanding.
Nothing really could, in fact. Except her.
She knew him well. He never told her anything about himself, what he did - "to keep her safe", he said. But she could see right through him, see straight into his soul by simply gazing into his eyes. He didn't have to wear his emotions on his sleeve for her to see, much like herself; everything she needed and wanted to know were said to her through her simple technique, just because she was that familiar with him.
He didn't know yet - and didn't need to. She wanted to know about him, to help him, and if this was the only way she could without him pushing her away, then so be it. For once, she wanted to help him, instead of always being the one to be helped.
Although she did admit she also liked to look at his eyes for no specific reason. They were just so mesmerizing...
Abrupt endings ftw. Screw length when you can have BREVITY! *gets backslapped*
I kinda didn't want to post this, but...I did. Please don't ask who the pairing is. Please.
I need to update more important things and stop writing pointless drabbles. But...you could review, and make this NOT seem pointless? :D Please. I have fudge.
