Note! The other guy in this one happens to be the Doctor. I like those two together but this is my madness!
He was magnificent. He was clever. He was everything. Yet he was her brother. The thought of him like that should make her sick. And she knew it should make her sick to the point of her stopping.
But there was another. Brilliant and mad. Everything she wanted. Yet he was lonely. The thought of him should make her feel alive. She knew it should make her alive to the point of happiness.
His blue eyes crawled under her skin and gave her a rush.
His green eyes that changed made her dull and stuck.
Women had fallen for both of them.
She loved the Brilliant one to seem normal.
She loved the Magnificent to keep sane. She wasn't.
She never felt sick or guilty staring at the Magnificent. She had seen him naked and he would smile. It would seem right.
She always felt sick and guilty staring at the Brilliant. She had seen him naked and he would smile. It always felt completely wrong.
Throughout the day those Golden eyes judged her. She hid the pain in a shell.
A shell only the Magnificent could destroy with delicacy.
A shell the Brilliant had never noticed.
She knew she should feel sick. She knew the Magnificent should too. But they didn't. And yet they did.
That's when the Brilliant knew. That's when the Brilliant flew away.
And that how they remained each night. Clutching each other. Wishing for air. Waiting for an impact.
But he would hold her.
And those Golden eyes would judge.
