I am also assuming Disney princesses are ...well real just to compare to DG's bitchin'-ness mah story. Don't worry I didnt THINK giving you cookies :D I did!...it starts...
NOW
Bird Cage
There are certain time's in one's life, when you feel an electric jolt. Like lightening passing through you, brought on by the affection of a loved one. That cause's the heart to skip a beat, one's breath to hitch and the heart soar. DG didn't quite know, before this moment, that she loved this man. But when the soft feeling of his lip's reached her own. That bolt shot through her, like the reminder. You are no longer a child, you're a grown woman. It is time to grow up. Within this moment, she did grow up...
Cain felt, a rather welcoming sensation at that, her arms wrap around his own shoulders. The soft return of a kiss that was bound to happen. As if channeling her electricity his heart began to pound, and the two sat up staring at one another with a desperate longing. After all they've been through, she was home. But his heart just needed...a little kick start.
-Scene-
What do you purchase for a Princess? A woman who own's an entire kingdom. Filled top to bottom with creatures great, and small. Who can make the oceans dry and the birds to sing simply by wishing it to be so. What do you buy for your lover? When she has everything at her fingertips? This, is Cain's conundrum. He stared down the isle at the flowers, stuffed bears giving him their blank button eyed stares.
He had the deep rooted hatred of them...and as he passed said stuffed critters Cain could have sworn that they fallowed his movements. With those evil...blank eyes.
Shaking his head at the poorly sewn creatures of infinitesimal evil, he went down the flower isle. How BORING. Perhaps a woman more akin to Cinderella would swoon at a rose. But DG was not a typical princess. Sleeping Beauty was lame, Snow White only complained. So argued the all knowing DG. When the other princesses went to balls and married prince charming..DG got sucked into a tornado..and then saved the world.
Oh no, DG was far more special. And she chose of all men. A...middle aged, ex-cop, with a rather Indiana Jones vibe. Though he didn't have a clue who 'Indiana Jones' was, she assured him he resembled the man.
"..."Cain sighed staring at the browning petals of a Daisy. "This isn't working"
"Hello Sir, is there anything I can help you with?"
The woman who spoke to him, was wearing a rather full skirt, that he suspected made it terribly difficult to enter and exit through small doors. Her name tag read "Hello My Name Is: Morgan" with a drawn on smiley face.
"Uh...Yeah well see I am looking for a present for this girl.."He rubbed the back of his neck . It was a gift for HIS girl. Not just any girl.
"Well if she doesn't like bears, or flowers perhaps she'll like candy?"
"..I..well I dunno..."He felt..very awkward. What kinda food DID she eat anyway? Was she allergic to peanuts? Or milk? Maybe Carmel?! Damn..
"Well...what DOES she like?" Morgan's foot tapped on the stone floor of the tiny Florist's shop. One hand on her little hip.
"She..she like's motorbikes and hiking..and drawing she loves to draw...and oh she can sing jazz like nobody's business!"
The woman was now staring at Cain, as if he'd gone completely insane "Maybe you should buy her a tool box or an engine"her voice was bitter with sarcasm.
"Hey now!...Wait..that's..a really good idea"He grinned ,clearly getting excited."Thanks!"
Morgan hadn't seen a man run out of that store so fast since the flower shortage...
-Scene-
Now this was more like it. This garage had engines with glowing knobs..and buttons that made weird sounds...and he didn't know what any of it meant. But he knew if it went in a motorbike she'd love it...accept for one detail...He lived in the woods. In the middle of no where. And in the middle of no where you don't need cash. But to buy these flashy, and rather shinny machine parts you needed cash...a lot of cash.
Okay..so he was CLOSE. What else could he buy for her?
The thought wandered across his mind, as he walked rather forlorn up the steps to her bedroom wing in the grand castle at Finaqua.
"What the hell do I buy for her..."
" Cain..."DG smiled leaning on her bedroom door."You don't need to BUY me a damn thing.."
He stared at the floor awkwardly, counting the various cracks in the marble. Suddenly looking very meak and childish. As if he'd been caught with his hand in the cookie jar.
"Come on DG..."He scuffed the sole of his boot on the floor. "You've got EVERYTHING I don't know what to get you!"
DG took his coat sleeve and tugged him over. Standing him in her bedroom facing the floor length wall mirror.
"Do you see us? How fantastic we look walking around together"She grinned at his reflection which finally lifted its head to return the gaze.
"Yes..I see the beautiful Princess who has all the Princes in the kingdom..and has chosen..me" The soft look in his eyes...was pure insecurity. How old was DG anyway? 21? 25? He was..well past 30 anyway. Though he made this age look damn good, he knew there had been many a young Prince who came to Finaqua intending to leave with his DG in hand. Though this had never happened..it still sparked that insecurity .
DG laughed...something she rarely did but when it happened the sound was like bell's ringing. "Cain..."She placed her hand beneath his coat, feeling the soft warm fuzz of worn leather on the back of her hand. Her palm rested on his heart.
"Do you feel that?"Her voice was soft...matching her smile as she stared at her own hand. "It's fluttering like a bird in a cage..." Indeed, fluttering against her palm, she could feel his heart. Whenever she was near, whenever they touched. It fluttered trying to escape its confines.
"This is what I want Cain. To feel your heart, and know I make it flutter."
There are moments within our lives, when we come to some deep understanding within ourselves. That make us know, this is the way the world is meant to be. This is how my life is to be lived. This is where I belong and whom I belong with. For within Cain's chest, he felt his own heart flutter. He could hear the thunder, and he knew. The pain was gone...and she was in it's place. As long as there was DG, his heart would beat.
Okay more's to come my people! I thought this would be more..fluffy before getting to the hot and heavy stuff. I don't want my fic to be pure smut or something. Then lose the plot within the sexyness. But don't worry, it will come. If the people wish it, it will be! -dramatic fire effects- Moving along folks.
