"Something she left in me remains imperfect,
My heart, proceeded to its banishment
The blame may hang upon your chest
I know, all hearts dance with comforts
And the wounds I bear will not live in vain
I know hearts dance comforts"
-Chiodos "We're Gonna Have Us A Champagne Jam"
He needed to feel loved.
It was really as simple as that. Lysander -the weird twin, the absentminded fellow, the loony blond. He was constantly being overshadowed by his perfect brother Lorcan. Everyone liked Lorcan so much more -his parents, his friends, his crushes.
All Lysander wanted was to feel some form of love. Unfortunately, this meant that his poor heart was battered and bruised beyond recognition but he did not care because it was still pumping. He knew, deep down, that someday this would all pay off and that was what kept him going each day. Lysander had been broken into oh, so many pieces that it would take the world's best puzzle solver to put him back together again. Humpty-Dumpty had nothing on him.
His heart. It was just a mere fragment of what it once had been. The problem was when these cruel girls broke his heart, they always took a piece for their grand collections. Over the years, it had really taken a toll on him but he would not give up. No. He could not give up.
So many girls, each with their own twisted intentions had set him up just to watch him fallfallfall. He didn't hate them for it, oddly enough. After each and every time, he would just search the floor for the remaining slivers of his heart and move on his way. It was a routine that he knew all too well.
Most people thought him a fool, thought that he was just a lost cause. Lysander knew better, though. He could feel, in what was left of his heart, that there was a girl out there somewhere for him. So he had been very very wrong about Lily, Molly, Victoire, and Lucy, but he had a good feeling about Dominique.
The lyrics at the beginning belong to Chiodos. If you listen to them, please make sure that Craig Owens is the one who is singing 'cause the other guy SUCKS!

So, I'm leaving this as "In-Progress" because Mew gave me the amazing idea of continuing it. I haven't quite decided whether I'm going to because I have a lot of other multichapter fics going but it is a possibility once I finish some of my other ones.
Thanks Mew for betaing!
