Love's First Kiss

She has never had love. And perhaps that is why she can't love.

But as his sapphire eyes widened with a tender smile on his lips, she wondered as her heart quickened if this was it. The dream she has been dreaming of all her life. Something she wished and prayed for as long as she could remember. Was this love?

Her heart raced and her hand trembled as she reached out for him...

"W-who a..are you?"

He stepped back slighty and gave her a dazzling white smile.

She smiled back unsure.

He leaned forward, oh so slowly, her eyes widened in surprise and nervousness.

"What are you-" Doing. Her words cut off by a brush of his lips on hers.

"I am," He whispered in a deep melodious voice, "anyone you wish me to be... Psyche."

Psyche...

She awoke to the gentle chidings of her servant.

"Princess Psyche.. thank goodness you're awake!"

"What..?"

"Hurry Princess, we must get you dressed and ready to meet your suitors!"

Suitors...? She didn't want to meet any suitors. Princes, men, more than twice as old as her, with their lecherous grins that only served to make her ill.

She wanted to meet him again. The young man from her dream, with his white blonde locks, sapphire eyes and soft smile.

She felt pain in her heart. Perhaps it was all a dream. Undoubtedly she would never meet him again.

Dazed, she wondered, as she looked at herself in the hand mirror, why she suddenly felt the inexplicable urge to cry.

'I am anyone you wish me to be ...'

He felt like pounding his head against the wall.

Stupid stupid stupid...

Why had he gone and kissed her?!

Now he was sure.. sure that he couldn't just let his mother deal away with her.

Why though? Wasn't she just a stupid mortal?

She wasn't that lovely was she?

Well maybe...

But then why did he feel pain if he thought her in pain?

Why...

....

Holy Zeus forbid!

Was he, the God of Love, in love with a mere mortal?

Damn damn damn..

His mother was going to kill them all.
