Kel thought, He's so graceful. Handsome too. Why she noticed such things these days mystified her. Last year an approving glance from his lively eyes hadn't made her skin prickle with goosebumps.
Opened my eyes today
And I knew there's something different
Saw you in a brand new way
Like the clouds had somehow lifted
And yesterday if I heard
Myself saying these words
I would swear it was a lie
"I think of her as luminescent," Neal said, dreamy-eyed. "When the candle light falls on her, she makes the light part of herself, and returns it."
"I'm off," said Kel. "Don't be up too late dreaming." Thoroughly depressed, she returned her tray to the servers, and trudged back to her room.
I don't know why but suddenly I'm falling
Was I so blind
I was loving you all the time
Now I'm hopelessly addicted
Helplessly attracted
"I'd do something," grumbled Kel, practising a headstand. "I'd make her fall in love with me."
Lalasa smiled. "Would you my lady? And what of your own feeling for Master Neal?" She shook out the tunic. "Let's see how this fits."
Kel obeyed, red-faced. Lalasa was right. It was easy to say she'd make Uline love her if she was Neal, but when it came to herself, Kel was terrified to speak up. She would hate it if Neal were no longer comfortable with her. Better to be a coward, and still be his friend.
I'll make a with this day
And I'll send it to the heavens
That we will stay
Entwined like this forever
And though the world may change
Coz nothing stays the same
I know we will survive
Neal looked at her, eyes filled with mischief. Something odd filled Kel's chest for a moment. Why did she feel giddy?
I don't know why but suddenly I'm falling

I was loving you all the time
Now I'm hopelessly addicted
Helplessly attracted
Hopelessly addicted
Helplessly attracted
Chemically reacted
Naturally we reacted
