13. Thom's Lady

This is a guessing game. The following story has many hints about the identity of Thom's new gal. Read the story, make a guess and tell me who you guys think she is in the reviews. The answer will be hidden in the next story.

Thom's Lady

Auric of Irenroha was growing tired of his best friend. He had started to talk, no brag, about his new lady. According to him she was the loveliest there ever was.

Her eyes were a deep blue/hazel that glittered brighter than the stars (Auric didn't believe such a color existed,) and framed by long lashes. Her wavy dark brown hair cascaded down her back past her waist (Auric rolled his eyes at Thom's over use of cliche,) when she let it fly free. Her complexion was pale and smooth snow, her lips red as blood (Thom hadn't appreciated Auric's asking if his sweetheart was Snow White). She was said to have a thin figure, graceful, like a dancer's. Thom had said because of her flighty nature, it was only a matter of time before she danced away from him.

On more then one occasion Auric had asked Thom who this women was. "I can't tell you that. Because of who she is, who her parents are. We couldn't be together if anyone knew." Had been his reply.

Auric couldn't stand it any more. Every day he heard more and more about Thom's lady, but not once was he told who she was. Thom seemed to be getting more serious about her. Almost every other morning, Auric would find Thom sneaking in their shared chambers at dawn.

Auric decided to do something. He couldn't have his best friend keeping secrets from him, now could he? At the next banquet He watched Thom closely; when he slipped out Auric could follow. He followed Thom down to the gardens, staying out of sight. He gasped when he saw the elegant woman, dressed all in blue and silver, who met him with a kiss. Thom had said that she was rather well known, but this was not at all who he expected.

Yes I did just end it there. And now; your guesses people! The first correct guess gets a one-shot, for any fandom I know, with any characters I know, any pairing I approve of, and any subject!
