Chapter 2 - First Time Ever I Saw Your Face- Roberta Flack
Lucius held the small woman in his arms as they shared their first dance as husband and wife. He looked down at her, the faerie lights glinting off the small diamond studs which were intricately woven into her hair and she turned her head upwards to gave him a small smile.
He wondered idly if she knew the effect she had on him as his breath caught in his throat under her gaze. He could never get enough of her beautiful blue eyes. Whenever he looked into them, it was like the sun rose behind them, shining light on all she deemed worthy to look on, though he knew there were special looks she reserved just for him.
His hand rested on her side, his thumb just below her bosom and he could the trembling of her heart against his fingertips. It raced like a frightened bird, giving away just how nervous she was in front of the crowd. He pulled her closer to him, her heart above his and he could feel hers calming down to match his pace. She had no reason to be afraid or nervous. He was there for her, he always would be, and he would never let anyone harm her.
She tipped on her toes and gave him a deep kiss, sending his mind reeling. Just like every time she kissed him before, it was magical and so full of love, Lucius almost couldn't stand it. But he loved every minute of it. Even with all eyes watching them during their first dance, it was only him and Narcissa on the dance floor.
