Once again I have to thank nicolagirl for the lovely review!
Sorry for updating that late! I`ve been too busy and this won`t change the next days. I hope you stay patient!
This story is just for filling the gap until I`ll find find some time to continue my other story "The secret - Part II".
Enjoy and review!
*TRANSSEXUAL – I*
The next days, Frank`s good mood took a drastically turn.
He had Ruby to visit him every day, but the girl preserved with aloofness. Frank couldn`t make heads or tails of her behaviour, but he gradually grew impatient.
Yes, they both had slept with each other like nearly everyone on Transsexual does, but it was nothing more than plain sexual intercourse. Frank couldn`t help himself, but Ruby`s mind always seemed to be somewhere else. Although Frank was a genius in love-making, he – for the first time – was not able to charm the pants off of the girl.
He opened the door to the music-room. The rehearsal would start every minute.
Magenta was already inside. She stood next to the piano, her head resting at the top of it while her fingers were tracing the beautiful black shape of the instrument.
As she heard someone entering, she lifted her head and started to smile.
"Frank," she greeted the prince and stood to her full height.
"Magenta, where are the others?" Frank went towards a chair that was standing beside Magenta and took his cello. He sat down and started to tune his instrument.
"I really have no idea," Magenta shook her head.
The last days, she had withdrawn into herself. There had been a lot of things to think about. Apart from that, her only intimate seemed to be very busy so Magenta had nobody to consult with. She wondered what Frank made her brother working all the time.
*EARTH*
"...Will you give up yourself for me?
Together we can reach the sky..."
Magenta sighed mentally as she remembered the worst day of her life...
*TRANSSEXUAL – I*
The door to the music-room opened once again and Ruby entered, Riff Raff following at her heels.
"I`m sorry we`re late," Riff Raff said and guided the slender woman to the piano. Then he pulled some notes out of his jacket and handed it to Frank.
"There`s a new idea that had just slipped out of my mind last night," he said and smiled knowingly at Ruby, who returned the smile.
Magenta`s eyes darted from her brother to the girl and back to her brother, while Frank scrutinized the scribbled notes with a frown.
"That`s a very... intimate song," he ascertained and looked up to his servant, his face marked with a look of utter confusion.
He knew that Riff Raff was – contrary to his usually sinister appearance – indeed a very emotional person and in a way somewhat sensible, but Frank had never put it past Riff Raff to write such an emotive song.
"Um, well... yes it is indeed," Riff Raff replied in a stuttering voice for he was caught off his guard.
Then, he shrugged his shoulders and sat down at the piano. "Let`s give it a try," he said cheerfully and started to play the intro. As the song was coming to the first verse, he suddenly stopped and turned around.
"Ruby, would you be so kind to sing the first verse, so Magenta could join in the refrain," with that he turned once more and soon the intro was heard once more.
Magenta blinked, as did Frank.
Magenta`s stomach started to ache and her heart felt like being torn apart. She breathed heavily and sweat was forming at her forehead.
Then, Ruby began to sing and a violent urge for vomiting came over Magenta.
Again, the domestic stormed out of the room without any further words, followed by a worried prince on heels...
*TRANSSEXUAL - II-*
"Riff Raff, it hurts me to see you being sad like this," Magenta said and took a seat beside her brother at the cold steps of the stairs that were leading into the royal garden right behind the beach.
The blond young man didn`t react.
Truth to be told, he hadn`t said a word to anyone since two days now and finally, Magenta began to worry. She gently started to caress his back, but he didn`t react.
Magenta sighed.
How could she have known that her beloved brother would react like this? Neither she nor Frank had been able to foresee the emotional disaster her brother would have to suffer through.
Yet, Riff Raff had put them into the same emotional tragedy some weeks ago without knowing. There had been no other option for them to stop it.
Now, there was only one person left who had to suffer and Magenta did her best in distracting her brother from his emotional pain...
