I'm baaaack! I know, I know. I'm two behind now. But I was completely exhausted yesterday when I got home, and I had like 30 emails to catch up on, not to mention the homework that I should have done on the 7 hour bus ride home. Oh well. I'll make it up this weekend, because we have Friday and Monday off. Of course, I have state solo and ensemble (yikes!) on Saturday, but I'll make time.

And now, on with the show! :D


Eyes

Holding her sideways in his lap so she was leaning against the armrest on the couch, Will looked deeply into Elizabeth's eyes as they scanned across the book she was reading. Ever since he first met her as a child, he had loved her light, honey brown eyes. But there was something different about them today. They were almost a completely different color, with an intense greenish flair to them. It wasn't that he didn't find this color eyes attractive, but he pondered the reason for the change.

"Elizabeth," he asked timidly. His girlfriend, eyes still scanning the page, audibly told him with a quick "Mmm?" that she was listening, at least somewhat. "Why are your eyes green today?" Her eyes paused on the middle of the page, and then she glanced up at him.

"My eyes are green today?" Smiling because he now had her full attention, he nodded.

"Do they change color depending on what you're wearing? And have I failed to notice this for all the years I've known you?" Elizabeth smirked at him and giggled, shaking her head.

"No. Don't worry. You're not as unobservant as you think you are," she laughed, taking his rough hand into her soft one.

"That's good," he sighed in mock relief. "But, then, why are they green today?" Elizabeth eyed him hesitantly before responding.

"They change color according to my mood," she confided, stroking his thumb. Will laughed.

"Well, that will come in handy. Your eyes are a built-in mood ring!" She rolled her eyes.

"Normally, if I'm just content or whatever, they're light brown, but when I'm happy, they sometimes turn various shades of green. I'm not really sure why," she explained. Will studied her eyes, making her face turn a shade of red.

"Then you must be really happy right now," he murmured on seeing her very green-tinged eyes, putting a hand up to stroke her face. She smiled.

"I am because I'm with you," she replied in a whisper, bringing his face to hers in a kiss.


So this is based off of my good friend Rachel again. Apparently, I get some good ideas from her love life, which is quite a bit busier than my nonexistant one (try about 100x). She has brown eyes, a bit darker than Elizabeth's, and when she's really happy or she likes someone, they turn green. She's not really sure why. They just do. I don't know if it really makes sense scientifically or whatever, but yeah. I've witnessed it... they really do turn green when she's happy. XD
