Beautiful in my eyes
Music can do wonderful things.
It can calm, excite, relax, make you happy, it can make you cry and above all make you fall in love.
It can make you feel appreciated, loved and yearn for.
Elizabeta had learned this when one afternoon as she had finished the last of her chores for the day went to her husband's study to inform him that she would be starting preparations for dinner. Knocking on the door she received no response, she knew that Roderich doesn't like to be disturbed when he was in the middle of his work. Feeling bold she opens the door only to find the room empty; wondering where he was, she stopped to think; suddenly remembering the time she immediately went to the place she was sure he was.
After her trek down the long hallway, found herself in front of the music room, she knock and this time received a response.
"Oh Ms. Elizabeta, what brings you here?" he asked from his place in front of the piano, hands in position to play a song.
"Mr. Edelstein, I'm finished with the chores and I'm about to start preparing for dinner." She answered.
"I see…"
"I was also wondering if there's anything you prefer for dinner?"
"Anything would be nice" Elizabeta nods and was about to shut the door when Roderich calls for her to come in as he starts playing a song, in which she complies. She was confused when she heard the piano piece her husband is playing.
"Mr. Edelstein that's a nice song but it's unusual for you to play these kinds, what's it called?" she asked curious as she stood on her usual place beside Roderich.
"Ah… this my dear is a love song, I've heard one of the countries playing this and thought to learn it. Beautiful in my eyes is the title and if I'm not mistaken this version was sung by one Christian Bautista" He said smiling serenely, the melody was soft and has a comforting ring to it. Much to the surprise of Elizabeta when he starts singing.
You're my peace of mind
In this crazy world
Everything I've tried to find
Your love is a pearl
Roderich looks to his right where his wife is, smiling tenderly to the woman as he remembers the first time they met. At first he was reluctant about the engagement but soon had come into terms with it as well as her.
You're my Mona Lisa
You're my rainbow skies
And my only prayer
Is that you realize
You'll always be beautiful
In my eyes
It was a mere means to form a strong alliance as Austria that time needs all the help it could get but with the turn of events them becoming husband and wife she began to forge a connection to him slowly but surely in ways he himself cannot comprehend.
The world will turn
And the seasons will change
All the lessons we will learn
Would be beautiful and strange
We'll have our fare of tears
Our share of sighs
My only prayer
Is that you realize
You'll always be beautiful
In my eyes
He had grown fond of her and from fondness there's friendship and from there emerge something else.
You will always be
Beautiful in my eyes
And the passing years will show
That you will always grow
Ever more beautiful in my eyes
Now looking deeply into her eyes as he sung the next line of the song still deep in memory lane and to his delight Elizabeta sweetly smiled back as if reading what's in the recess of his mind as she also began remembering.
When there are lines upon my face
From a lifetime of smiles
And time comes to embrace
For one long last while
We can laugh about it
How time really flies
We won't say goodbye
Coz true love never dies
You'll always be beautiful
In my eyes
Elizabeta now sitting beside Roderich leaning her head on his shoulder and the latter dropping a quick kiss on her head. He may not be a romancer like the Italians or passionate like the Spanish nor was he as flirtatious as the French but he had music to show his appreciation and affection for her.
You will always be
Beautiful in my eyes
And the passing years will show
That you will always grow
Ever more beautiful in my eyes
For all the things she had done for him the caring, the happiness she had shared with him in which he will never forget and among other things the love that silently grew between them.
The passing years will show
That you will always grow
Ever more beautiful
Ever more beautiful
Ever more beautiful in my eyes
No exchange of words were needed because they knew deep within themselves how much one means to the other and no matter how time may pass, no matter how quick the seasons change she would still be beautiful in his eyes and nothing will change that.
This another song fic of mine, i suggest you listen to the song while reading this. This is supposed to be a chapter 2 for 'What are you doing Canada?' but decided against it. Thanks for taking time to read. Please review it will help a lot in improving my writing skills.
Oh... I apologize for the wrong grammar, spellings and my crappy English.
