Innocence
She remembered seeing and walking through this garden a million times, inspecting each unique flower with eyes as wide as saucers. She remembered which flowers she liked to look at most, ands which flowers she'd rather stay away from, but never has she seen a flower like this.
Her blue eyes sparkled with curiosity as she loomed over the flower, slowly reaching out to touch its ruffled petals. Reluctance seemed to get the better of her, and she abruptly yanked her hand back as though something had bit her finger, fixing it with a suspicious glare.
Even with this uncertainty, Beatrice couldn't take her eyes off of the peculiar flower.
"...is it even possible for a rose to be this colour?" She muttered to herself, reaching out again.
"Or...is it even a rose?" Her fingers gently stroked bright indigo petals. Once satisfied, she pulled her hands back and stood up tall, cocking her head. Slowly, she stepped backwards, proceeding to walk back to the glass table she spent most of her afternoons with. She scowled slightly at the thought of her taste buds meeting the cold black tea waiting for her. Distractions like this kept her from enjoying her dainty foods, even though she had them every day.
Truth be told, she didn't really mind it. Change scared her to death.
Beatrice looked over her shoulder, spotting the beautiful purple flower staring back at her, drops of early morning rain clinging onto it, glistening in the sunlight.
She would be sure to ask Kinzo about this later...
AN: Wooow, my first chapter two of anything. I feel sort of accomplished. XD I hope this was a worthy chapter-two-of-anything. I almost didn't post it, being the stubborn, hard-to-please writer that I am (and this quality frustrates me so much), but I learned something important today.
From now on, I'm going to update and post as much as I can, as frequently as I can, and write down every single idea worth pondering. Who knows; one might become a masterpiece. Missing it is just...sad. D:
As always, tell me what you think! :D
EDIT: And in case you couldn't guess, that's the Beatrice Rosa 'killed'.
