The Die Is Cast - Chapter 2 - Deepening
------------------------------------------------------------------------
By The Legendary Redhawke
How could I have ever done such a thing?
Her satin silhouettes danced in my dreams that night, despite my sins.
Her gown floated softly in the night breeze, as my hand caressed her
tender waist. Our hands intertwined, led the magical dance.
Spinning, and stepping, e'er our hearts could imagine, we grew joyous,
and wary.
My loving Venus, my sweet Serena, both atwirl within my dreams.
Decisions had been my downfall e'er could I recall. This time though,
one final decision had I made. My Venus, would be mine for once, for
all, and for spite of those who may mock us.
How would Serena be dealt with?
Serena herself soon came upon my doorstep, as she was all too apt to
do. I was paralyzed with fear at the somehow eerie knocking upon the
wooden portal. Shall I open it? Did she already know? All these
doubts and fears could have slain but the strongest of creatures set
upon this earth, and yet, I managed to o'erperch these abominable
outsets, to open the door of truth.
"Hiya Hun!" she said cheerily, as she lifted the massive weight from
my shoulders. "Whatcha up to today?"
Barely able to reply to her chipper requests, I uttered what any man
would, set under such conditions, "I dunno." Ne'er was I the most apt
toward the task of acting under such extreme pressure. Luckily
however, she mistook my nerves for mere normality.
"Ok. Do you want to go to the movies or something? We haven't been
out for a while." she suggested, bringing both dread and doubt to mind.
To decline would have been to open my soul to the interrogation that
could have detroyed both myself, and my fair evening star. So, I
accepted this most meager of offers to but quench whatever doubt had
built up within her.
We sat together in the darkened theatre, as my fears ever heightened.
Instinctively, I put my arm around her, though when it I realized, I
was discomforted grossly. She leaned into me, seeking a sense of
security that ne'er could I provide her. She seemed to haunt me as I
sat there. Though there were so many things that I needed to bespeak
before her, her dainty innocent figure hung upon me so softly. Ne'er
could I disclose such horrific thoughts to one so pure, and just as
she.
Somehow I began to wish that it had been Serena dancing in my dreams
of mist and moonlight. She too of long blonde hair and deep blue eyes,
could have been my midnight love. Alas, she was but that angel, who
slid into my life when least expected, and to but slowly shatter those
dreams as daytime loomed upon me.
Those starlit nights upon the kingdom of the moon were now but a
distant memory. Ne'er could I achieve that which Serenity had expected
of us two. My heart went to the heavens, but it found the angel true,
and not the angel assumed.
We exited the cinema, hand in hand, to my shagrin. Unfortunately, but
'twas one final act in the masquerade which I had performed to save my
little innocent from the pain which I was bound to inflict. As I left
her at her door, she hugged me, more passionate than usual, and
whispered but three small words into my ear.
"I Love You."
Again paralyzed was I now, as the heartstrings tugged ever harder.
Luckily, she went inside before receiving the lost response from beyond
my grasp. How could she love me? I've done so much to her, and yet
she loves me still?
Once more was I faced with the decision that could destroy me, or save me.
Two blonde goddesses, two loves, and two hearts, but one of which could be
mine everlong. The emotions raced inside my head as the decision turned
over and over. Was I for the innocent? Was I for the angel?
Without thought further, abound was I toward my choice. As 'twas evening,
the stars in the sky lit my path toward true mirth. I longed more than
ever to caress her soft body, and be bathed in the radiance of her deep
blue eyes. Now, the goal was closer than e'er had it been.
I reached her home, pitch as it was for midnight now leered, and gazed upon
her endearing silhouette in the window. No image could have been more
beautiful than that which stood within her window that glorious evening.
Reluctant was I to risk this joy, for the chance to be embraced, yet 'twas
my goal ultimate to witness her soft blonde hair flowing mellifluously in
the wind, as I kissed her softly in the pale moonlight.
I dismounted my bike slowly, still in awe of the effigy which glowed above.
Toward heaven, I ascended the side of the house, to meet my dazzling Juliet.
With each movement upward, my determination rose a thousand fold, as the
gallant goal moved increasingly closer to my grasp. At long last did I
reach her window, only to see her looking more fabulous than ever had I
seen.
Mesmerized by her extraordinary beauty, I could barely move a muscle, and
more than once seemed as if I had fallen from my perch on high. Slowly, I
knocked upon her window, only to shock the princess within. She slowly, and
cautiously came to the window, and opened it likewise. As I, she was
paralyzed with fear and desire, all together.
"Darien. Come in, it's freezing outside." she said as beautifully as e'er
I could have hoped to hear an angel sing.
"Thanks." I said as I began to climb inside her window. Her smile was
glorious and inviting as she took my hand carefully to guide me inside.
Indeed, she was for me.
"What brings you here this evening?" my angel asked of me that fine midnight.
She knew my response already, but had asked for mere courtesy's sake. My
smile seemed to tell her everything that she needed to know. Still holding
her hand, I knelt down to lay a tender, soft kiss upon't. As I looked up,
her smile told the same tale that mine had but seconds hence. I arose to her,
and moved my other hand to caress her supple waist.
Gloriously, we danced the most sensual magical dance that e'er one could
imagine, and when we spun no more, 'twas once more happening. I laid a soft
kiss upon her most tender of lips. Emotion passed between our lips as ne'er it
had before. Gently did we part to gaze into each other's eyes. Four solemn
words did I whisper to her heart and soul.
"I Love You Mina."
"I Love You Darien." she responded without a second thought. We kissed once
more, bathing ourselves in the passion of two lovers. All the heavens came
down upon us that evening, to make our hearts glow brighter than ever before.
Our single silhouette shone upon the universe, displaying our tender love from
that dazzling window.
*** And so I dance with you in my dreams, dear Mina. You smile at me, I guess ***
*** I'm just a fool. I gave up so much just to hold you in my arms. You may ***
*** never know just how much. ***
Dear Mina, I'll always love you.
