A/N: Well, I'm taking a short break (meaning a few days at most) off Songwriter. I was actually getting a little sick of it to tell the truth. So now, I'm a couple of short stories based off Vocaloid songs. The first song is based off "The Beast" by Hatsune Miku. It's such a sweet songs. Some of the sentences are straight from the song. So if you know, the song you'll be able to point them out. Enjoy!

The Beast

In Beauty and the Beast, a handsome and shallow prince gets turned into a beast through a magic spell. I placed a spell on myself. I went from being an ugly person to a beautiful beast. I gave away my humanity to become beautiful, but it came with a price.

I gazed at the outside world through a window in the doorless castle I built for myself to protect myself. I was keeping myself a secret from the outside world. I kept myself from the pain of being teased and being treated like a beast even though that is what I am. I watched the outside world every day until you came.

You had everything I wished for. You had climbed over the walls I built, pulled yourself through the window, and saw me. "You've been here this whole time, haven't you?" you asked me, unafraid of the beast you were staring at.

I was scared. I embellished, was impatient and upset, said bad things, and ran off. I envied the outside people from inside my castle that kept me in solitude. My pride locked its door.

I, who obtained graceful features and an undying body, thought I could do everything by myself. You kept trying to help, but I only ignored you. I thought of you as the castle dweller and only that.

I remembered the first time I actually tried to get to know you. I became so perplexed by this feeling of love, and it only grew. I acted cold-hearted towards you, but it was to protect myself from being hurt. "Stop pitying me. There is no way you could understand me." I grasped, grumbled, raged, but still you picked me up and held me.

I kept protecting my secret and watched the love of people who walked by my forbidden castle. I had grown used to loneliness. I wouldn't allow myself to melt in your sunshine. I couldn't forgive myself for thinking I need another person. My pretense of strength lasted half a century.

I was keeping a secret. I knew it was love. You were softly fading away. I was overwhelmed with fear. I was keeping a secret. I wanted eternal love. I only got eternity. For the first time, I cried out for another person. I should've loved you. I will cry until I can meet you again. I will continue waiting for you in the thousands of years to come.
