Break out
by
Belladonna
It had been a
beautiful evening and everything seemed as always. But on this evening everything
was different for there was someone who was as free and loosened as she had not
been for a long time. Actually she couldn't remember to have ever felt so free
like this night, never before.
The women of the
mansion in Westchester had gone out and enjoyed a free evening in town, one of
these free nights that were as seldom like they were precious for them and for
this they enjoyed it even more this night. This night they had decided to do
something good for themselves, to leave all the things behind that shackled
them otherwise, all the little things life had in store for them to hold them back
and that they otherwise weren't able to escape. They were in a little dancing
club. It was not too crowded and the music there had exactly the right volume,
not too loud to be still able to chat with each other but not too low so it
still could be heard and danced after.
Rogue was out on
the floor and she truly enjoyed this evening to the full extent while the
others had retreated to a small table and talked silently to each other, they
drank and laughed. All of them enjoyed themselves and this free night.
They all were
beautiful women, astounding and breathtaking for each male guest in the club
tonight and even some women had admired them, their looks and how they gave
themselves, the elegance with which they had entered and filled the club;
almost each man in the room had glared at least once to them, but it was only
one of them that had caught all their glances – Rogue.
She wore a short
tight skirt in the same emerald green colour like her eyes were which clung to
her body with every move she made and underlined her well trained and shaped
body. Her long hair fell loosely over her shoulders and in the light of the
night club the distinctive white stripe of hers was especially standing out
from her brown curls. She laughed and was in extreme high spirits this night;
elegantly and graciously she moved to the tunes of the music as if there was nothing in the world that could ever
restrain her in her life, so as if there was nothing that could prevent her
from doing anything she ever wished for or wanted to do.
Rogue felt the
glances of all the other men that rested onto her, felt each look that was
directed to her and she was well aware of the thoughts that each of these men
must have had this moment.
Each single one
of the men in the club would want to dance with her, would give anything to be
near her on the floor, some of them actually had danced with her and the line
of men who were still waiting for a dance would not end. Each single one of
them would hold her bare hand with the greatest pleasure, during a walk under
the moonlight and then gently take off the tears that would fall down her
cheeks, whenever else she had had these thoughts, then kiss her softly, hold
her close to them.
Rogue knew this
all too well, as well as she knew that nothing of this would ever come true the
way she would wish for.
None of them
would ever think that nothing of it would be possible, not for Rogue, no matter
how hard she wished for, now matter how much she dreamed of it to become
reality.
Not one single one
of them would ever come physically close to her and she would never feel the
bare hands of a man, who would tenderly stroke her cheeks, who would wipe her
tears away so gently or his lips on hers, so that he would take her breath away
with him.
All this was
impossible for her, all the small things that came so naturally for any other
woman, for any other man, all this was unreachable for her and would remain
unreachable as long as the chains of her powers held her back.

I know what
all the men here are thinking, I feel their glances rest on me and I like the
feeling of it. Tonight I am truly free, I feel so carefree right now, I would
never wish for this moment to end. Can't it stay forever like this? I have never
felt like this before and I enjoy it. Tonight I truly am free, free from all
the bonds my powers have for me, all the restrictions they mean for me and
tonight I can forget all this, forget all I am and only be myself.
Out here on
the floor I can break out of my prison, the prison of my own powers and dance
until the morning. I know I can never be free from my powers and what they mean
for my life, but in this moment tonight I have come as close to true freedom
for me as I can ever imagine; have I come closer to it than I ever have come
before.

Tonight she had
all these things, all the sorrows and restrictions that her powers meant for
her left behind in the mansion for on this night she wanted to flee from this life
and be like all the others, to break out once more of the chains with which her
powers held her prisoner. So happy and carefree like on this night, so loosened
and truly free like this very moment out on the floor she hadn't felt for a
long time and Rogue wished for this moment to never end.
Rogue enjoyed
this moment so much, enjoyed it as long as it would last for she knew all too
well that her life, out of which she could only break out for short moments
like this, would catch her again and that the bonds of her powers would bind
her faster than she wanted to, these bonds she so much longed for to escape
from, just like in this perfect moment of true happiness.
