His mask of coolness, serenity and aloofness was starting to crack. He could feel it starting to crumble away as the melody played on, a little at a time. Speaking of time, it was only a matter of it before his true face would show to the world. Did the blond even realize it? Did he know that everything he worked so hard to keep down and dead was starting to come alive once again. The horrors of that day and how it left him calloused and unfeeling began to melt away, leaving something far warmer in its wake. It almost scared the raven. Scared him to know that it wasn't taking long at all and that blond, that idiot, was the catalyst to it all.
He needed to leave now. He didn't know why, but he needed to get away and recollect himself. His mask was crumbling, faster and faster with every fleeting moment.
A hand caught his shoulder, turning him around to face blue eyes, a wall behind him. He had no place to recollect his thoughts, feelings... anything. His face of indifference was all but there and the blond was seeing a face he probably never could recognize in a million years. A face that showed anguish, regret, betrayal. Everything he hid, it began to show. And he could see it reflected in the blond in front of him. All the sadness. All the lonely years. The simple need for someone to understand.
Maybe they weren't as different as he thought they were. Even after the other's unheeded arguements that they were more similar than the raven would have admitted.
Neither said anything. Neither probably knew what to say. One face showed shock but understanding while the other's betrayed feelings of admittance.
The lyrics crescendo-ed. It was probably the only thing that shook the pair out of being stunned, lips crashing together. Feelings raw, arms encircling one another, pulling the other as close as they could get to each other. They only pulled away to breathe, but stayed together, the dark haired feeling foolish for letting himself lose control as such but, instead of pulling away completely to go regain it, settled for simply burying his face into the other's neck. He only hoped that no one else would come upon this or there would most certainly be hell to pay.
The blond, on the other hand, was content with how it was, knowing that his love was flighty when embarrassed. A smile crept onto his face, for once thinking it was nice not to have to steal a kiss or two from him or try to convince, argue and/or plead for affection from the icy male. Singing softly, though probably not very well, he repeated the lyrics he heard into the other's ear. The pale teen shifted some, mumbling something, probably "idiot" or "shut up" or something similar. It only caused the blond to smile more, knowing full and well the true meaning behind such harsh words. Hell, he'd take the other and start dancing with him if the dark haired male wouldn't have smacked him for it. So he settled into a rhythmic swaying to the beat of the music.
The other did nothing to stop him.
With a kiss to raven black hair, the blond promised one thing.
"I will never let you go as long as I'm still breathing."
