Anouk had been getting ready all day long for this, the annual ball of La Lumineuse which theme this year was a masquerade. She had been thrilled with the idea of attending and sure enough she had bugged Alexei to go with her. Right then she hadn’t thought about the consequences her little desire could have in their relationship but now she saw them crystal clear. Everyone would be there, not only school mates but teachers and unknown people; there could be relatives and friends of their parents. What had she been thinking of when she had invited Alex to go? It was a waste of time thinking about it now that everything was settled and she was pretty much dressed for the night. Tonight she was worried actually of the repercussions all of this could have on them, especially Alexei who was always worried of someone catching them. Anouk bit her lip looking at herself in the mirror, she wanted to enjoy this night with him, not having to worry about everyone and everything else, but that would be impossible even for her. And if she was scared of getting caught, she could only imagine the thoughts that would crossing in Alex mind right at that very moment.
Shaking her head she walked down stairs so she could wave her parents goodbye and get going to the ball, of course she wasn’t going to leave the house with him, they were going to meet there. Coat and mask in her hand she walked down the street to grab a cab. They say masquerades were the place for forbidden loves to meet each other because they wouldn’t be recognized behind a mask, and certainly it was hard to know who was who with those on their faces, but Anouk was sure she could recognize him anywhere. She rested her head against the window, the cold glass helping her calm down the twirl of her mind and the worry. She needed to be the one with the clear mind tonight so she could reassure Alex there was nothing to fear at all. But if she didn’t believe it herself how was she going to convince him anyway? That was going to be an impossible task, but she tried with all her might to suppress the feelings in her chest, she needed to get rid of them because the night was going to be hard enough as it was.
She got out of the taxi, paying the driver and heading toward the main building of the school, once she entered the hall and followed the music she was surprised to see the decoration. The Academy was one of the most prestigious around, and the decoration was simply sublime, they had all covered with black, red and gold rich fabric, it was mysterious and secretive and just like she had imagined, perfect. Now she only needed to find Alexei and her night would be done, the school was big enough to find a place for them to hide and spend some time together without fearing being getting caught. Anouk wouldn’t worry so much if she had tell her mother about him, she could care less about what everyone else thought, but if someone told her mother that was different. She shook her head again placing the mask over face now that she was inside. She leaned against a window and looked outside, hoping Alex would find her.

He hadn’t wanted to go to the masquerade ball at all, it was going to be something out of a horror movie that much he was certain of. The masquerade allowed literally anyone in, teachers, locals and the students that went there, there could be relatives of the Fournier family, there could be friends of the family, there could be so many people that the both of them knew, that knew both Alex and Anouk were step siblings and it was terrifying him almost into a heart attack. He had denied Anouk so many times but each time she bugged him about it, he could tell that she really wanted to go, and who was he to deny her an experience like a masquerade ball? The only good thing about it was that there were masks involved, but still, sometimes when people wore masks others recognised them and Alex was still terrified that someone would recognise the both of them because even though they were not related at all in anyway, both seemed to have similar features to one another which was quite bizarre. He didn’t understand why Anouk didn’t realise that literally anyone could recognise them, but most of her friends knew about the both of them anyway and their relationship was sort of on that gossip blog thing, gossip was something a lot of people believed so they probably did believe all of it; he would just have to be very careful that night.
He was in the gallery at that moment, getting ready at the back. He had closed it down, mainly because he didn’t trust Adrienne that much because lately she had been off sick and trying to get out of work, so if he left his gallery open he was sure that he would come back to it and see it surrounded by fire brigades, police and ambulances and that was something he just couldn’t handle. Looking in the mirror, he fixed his tie before running a hand through his hair. After making sure that he looked immaculate, he sighed, this was it, it was time to go and he was going to a ball. He never went to a ball, being an antisocial kid meant that he had no date and if he did go then it would mean that he would be standing on the corner with other geeks and nerds just bobbing along to the music, and he would rather be at home painting than doing something as stupid as that.
Hailing down a cab, he got to the Academy in about a few seconds. Just before exiting after paying the driver, he put his mask on, making sure that his face wasn’t truly visible through the mask, which was stupid as it was a half sort of mask where his cheeks could be shown, but at least he seemed sort of different. Entering the hall, he looked around, not for the decorations but for Anouk because he wanted to see her first before he did anything. Passing a few chairs, and a few girls who looked at him with some weird looks on their faces; he walked around, an eye out for Anouk. Smiling as his gaze caught someone by the window who had the exact figure that Anouk had, he was sure it was she. Walking behind her, he put one hand on her waist while his mouth hover next to her ear. “What are you thinking about gorgeous?”

Guilty and regret were emotions Anouk wasn’t used to have. They didn’t even existed in her old life’s vocabulary but lately they were showing in her emotional palette quite a lot and she hated it. Now she was feeling guilty for bugging Alexei about ball and regretting getting him into it. She could have gone alone; there was no need to risk their relationship for just a whim and much less for something so frivolous as a ball. But Anouk had really wanted to spend this evening with him, and to get him out a bit of his self-imposed shell in which he lived all the time. When Alex wasn’t with her he was either at his gallery or locked in his room painting. To say he was a bit anti-social was an understatement; he didn’t have a social life at all he could hate to begin with. And now he had earned the hate of quite a big amount of boys for taking her out of the market and the party scene, not to mention how he seemed to mess up with her all the time and somehow always in front of her friends. He was lucky none of them had hit him yet because sometimes it seemed he just looked for it. Anouk had defended Alexei against everyone, even when she knew he didn’t deserve it, it was her thing to just protect her love no matter what the price was.
So now, and after he had finally given into her pleas for once, she was waiting for him leaning against that window as she looked at the sky getting darker. Her fears flying inside her mind like flies and butterflies in the pitch of her stomach as she waited for him to find her and she was sure he would. It didn’t matter to her how many boys in the ball were because Anouk would recognize Alexei in a crowd of millions of people. She had been memorizing his figure for three years, his expressions, the soft tone of his voice and even his laughter. She knew them all by heart that was why she could read him like a book and she could keep her expressions and thoughts for herself. Alexei had never paid her much attention as something more than a sister in the past, and she couldn’t blame him for that. Now it seemed he understand her better than he did before but he had a long way to learn. All her fears and thoughts vanished as he placed his hand on her waist and whispered on her ear, which made her shiver. Without moving an inch or showing surprise she smiled to their blurred reflection on the window. “I was thinking about us, and how breathtaking you are tonight.” Anouk turned to look at his masked face. He always managed to leave her breathless, no matter what he was wearing, just the sight of him made her heart skip quite a few beats.
Placing a hand on his left check she tiptoed to kiss his right softly, knowing someone could be watching them. She hated to be hiding at moments like this, when everyone else was enjoy the company of their loved ones but she couldn’t even do something as simple as kissing him. She offered him a warm smile while taking his head and dragging him toward a more private corner of the ball where the rich fabric of the curtains and the soft candle lit lights gave everything a mysterious air and hided them from the rest. Some deep red roses where in a gold vase near a velvet classic chase long. She was amazed at how well the decoration was done, but the academy take proud of the things they did and always wanted to leave a strong impression so they would be the topic of conversation until another party or ball or show took place. Anouk sat down dragging Alex with him and lacing their fingers together as she rested her head on his shoulder. “I’m sorry for having you come along with me.” She said giving him sort of a sad smile. She just wanted to feel like a normal couple who could do things like this together, but she should have known better than believing they could. “I just wanted to enjoy your company.” It was so true. And yet she felt so guilty for wanting such a thing… was it so bad that she wanted to show the world their love?

He was actually feeling pretty normal about it; which was pretty surprising considering how much he worried, but as the ride towards the main building went along he was calming down every few seconds. There didn’t seem to be anything horrible about it; it was just a ball and he was wearing a mask so it meant that most people wouldn’t be able to tell it was him. Though his features were slightly noticeable, the taught jaw, the tense muscles, the slightly feminine cheeks; some people would know it was him but others wouldn’t and it would be mainly because he had never been to the Academy at all. He knew that Anouk was slightly worried about Alexei’s social interactions because he was always locked up in his room or the art gallery; but really, that was the way he liked it; it was perfect like that but he could understand Anouk’s worries, even his step mother was worried because he hardly came out, but was there any need? He had Anouk everywhere he went, and being at home by themselves was the only place where they could be alone for a few solid moments before their parents came home. He wasn’t good with most people anyway; he didn’t like being friends with boys or girls, there were just those few like Alice and Sam that he could tolerate because they were actually pretty nice.
Anouk was pretty obvious to spot, he had a rough idea of what she was going to wear and was starting to familiarise himself with her body. She was slim, tender arms that were placed elegantly by her sides, her stomach was flat, taut as if she worked out a lot (which he knew she didn’t because she spent most of her time with him), her hair was growing out now and he liked it like that; sort of a honey blonde but looking brunette at times; especially in the light. Now even though Anouk said he didn’t pay much attention to her, he was doing that now, after all, if he didn’t how would he know all this? Sure, at first he hardly ever paid attention to her and that was because he saw her in the sisterly light, in the light that no brother was actually meant to pass, but he had and it didn’t matter to him anymore because he had passed that stop light by miles, he had passed it centuries ago and there was no need to worry either; after all they weren’t blood related were they? Smiling as she showed no sign of recognition to his voice or his touch on her, he moved slightly closer, keeping his head tucked towards her so that people wouldn’t pay much attention to the both of them. He chuckled, rolling his eyes behind his mask as she turned around, his hand was still on her hip and he let go with ease. “I’m breathtaking? Have you even looked at yourself tonight? There is no one here that can match up to how you are tonight.”
Closing his eyes at her touch, his other hand placed itself on her hip once more as she lifted herself up to kiss him on the cheek; it was a good thing his cheeks were shown, it meant that they could touch each other more...even if it was just on the face. Following her, he actually felt free; which was weird but he was getting used to the idea of feeling free ever since Sydney, he wasn’t looking around as much and his head wasn’t dropped down towards the floor, he was actually looking up, looking at the decor of everything and taking n every inch of the decorations; the person who designed the hall had great artistic capabilities it seemed; but then again, what less could you expect from La Luminese? Sitting down next to her, his body turned sideways so that he was facing her and away from the curtains that hid them from the gazes of students, teachers and locals. Squeezing her hand as she spoke, he shook his head at her, a soft smile on his face. He moved from her, softly picking up her head that was resting on his shoulder. Looking around, he waited for a few seconds before taking off his mask and leaving it on top of his head so he could pull it down as quickly as possible if necessary. He held both her hands in his and smiled. “There’s no need to be sorry, I’m glad you enjoy my company. Who am I to refuse you a ball hey? I love you and I’ll do whatever you want.” Leaning forward he kissed her lips, biting her lower lip softly before pulling back and placing his mask back on. Standing up, he bowed at her, a hand extended, “A dance, my lady?”

To be completely honest finding someone of her relatives in the ball or having someone recognize Alexei had been the last thing on her mind while she had been bugging him to come. Now that she was there she was feeling slightly worried. But Alexei seemed to be feeling pretty normal and at ease, and that made her relax. She hadn’t realized he hadn’t been at the Academy before and that the chances of him being recognized were slim. He could be a random stranger for all her classmates and teachers knew. Anouk knew he like the comfort of home and his gallery and that he would much rather stay there than out and about like she did but he seemed comfortable today, and he didn’t seem to be paying much attention to the rest of the world around them, just her. She loved the feeling of having all his attention; he loved the way his eyes danced around her features as if he was memorizing each one of them. She had been doing the same for years but his features still managed to captivate her. She could always discover a new expression, a new line on his jaw, something different and that only made her love him even more. “I did.” She said laughing softly. “And I still keep you are the most handsome man over the earth.” Alexei didn’t seem to mind her kissing him in the check, or touching him, and that was great because she was going to have a really hard time getting her hands off him that night. Anouk just wanted to go back home and remove every inch of that tux off him, not that he would ever allow that though but dreaming was free and hurt none.
He followed her taking in the decoration while all she could do was watch him in a daze. When things did change so much? When did she become the one getting dazed instead of doing the daze? It wasn’t as if she hated it but she didn’t like know he had such power over her. Alexei had always been able to do whatever he wanted with her, whatever he asked, he got it. But he was the one and only who could ever do that to her. When he removed his mask Anouk smiled, he wasn’t as fearing as other days and that calmed her down completely, all her doubts and fear vanishing as she looked at his smile. “You don’t need to do whatever I want, just keeping on loving me is fine. I love you too.” It was so true, and if he ever needed proofs he could always look at her eyes, her touches, her words, the way she took him in completely and he would be able to figure out her feelings. Though there were really no way of measuring how much she loved him, words weren’t enough to even start expressing her feelings. It was as if the whole starred sky had collided and exploded turning into a beautiful shiny and colorful mess. Anouk never got used to his kissing, never mind how many times they had done just that, each was different and especial and it was like the first. The way he tasted… it got her addicted to him, drove her completely nuts and made her mind go blank. It was an amazing feeling that lifted her to the sky and she wanted to keep on kissing those soft amazing lips that reduced her world to nothing more than him.
He pulled back, getting up and offering her his hand and a dance. She smiled and laughed softly, so old-fashioned he was, but she loved it. It made her feel like a princess, like no one else had made her feel before and no one else will ever. If this relationship was damned to end at some point Anouk knew she wouldn’t be able to love anyone else as she loved Alexei in her life, no matter how hard others tried, he was always going to be first in heart. Always. “It will be my pleasure.” It was like a dream, dancing with him, something they had never got the chance to do before in such a romantic way. She could barely hear the music in the background and she didn’t noticed at all the world around her, it was as if suddenly all she could focus on was him and how stupidly handsome he seemed to be that night. And if that could bring her trouble Anouk will deal with it later, right now all she wanted to do was step forward and close the distance between her lips and his, though she couldn’t bring herself to tear her eyes apart from him, and had to remind herself to breath.

The dress fit her perfectly, it showed every curve of her body which made her seem even more sexual and sensual than she usually was. And he had that urge again, to just take her home and rip her clothes of...but not to have sex, just to lie next to each other and sleep that would be better right? But this was her night, her night to have a Disney fairy tale sort of night where she could dance with the man that she loved and have fun with her friends, and just because Alex didn’t like coming out from his little shell, didn’t mean that he wasn’t going to ruin her night, she looked as if she was having so much fun already as soon as he arrived and he knew he made the right choice of coming. He wanted to give her all his attention tonight, she deserved it after taking her time to look as gorgeous as she did; she was literally breath taking and Alex knew that once they were in the view of many of the students, they would be watching the both of them; not because of him but because of Anouk. Laughing, he moved closer, he liked being next to her, the warmth of her skin rolling onto him and just making him feel wanted; it was great. Rolling his eyes he shrugged, “Well I’ve got to look good for you don’t I? Otherwise I’d be the awkward one that stuck out in the relationship if I wasn’t handsome for you.” A hand gently brushed across a bit of her bare flesh, “But seriously, you’re making it hard for me to be good tonight.” Smiling he pecked her cheek once. This was going to be a long night for him, but for once he was ready to get it all done and out of the way; for Anouk.
He was still dazed by Anouk; there was no doubt about that. Every little thing she did make him wants to kiss her and hold onto her because she just did it so gracefully and that was perfect. She was perfect, the only perfect thing in his life at the moment apart from his gallery which came in a close second. The warm air against his cheek was welcomed warmly as the outside was quite cold, and he couldn’t help but to smile. Was she surprised that he was taking all this so lightly? Because he certainly wasn’t, he felt as if it was the right moment to just let the course off their relationship flow smoothly. Ever since their argument, ever since all the accusations that were flung at one another he realised that it was true, he couldn’t just keep their relationship hidden anymore no matter how much he wanted to. Letting out a chuckle, he shrugged his shoulders. “But I want to; tonight you’re the one being pampered.” Wriggling both is eyebrows; he let out a sensual chuckle, before the kiss he planted on her. Every time he kissed her it was as if she shot a handful of adrenaline through his body to make him get all riled up, it was as if she wanted to make him want her so bad, it was horribly, teasingly good and he loved every minute of it.
Smiling as she accepted his offer to dance, he bowed his head, a small smirk playing on his lips. He grabbed a hold of one hand, making sure to hold it gently before he fixed his mask on properly. Coming out of the corner that they were both in, he walked ahead of her, not worrying about people looking at them and not removing his hand from hers; was there any need for that tonight? People hardly looked at them as they were more interested in their partner. Taking Anouk to the centre of the dance section, he turned around, both hands going to her waist as another slow song started. Looking down, he moved closer to her and made sure not to step on her feet. Once he was close enough as possible without the public deeming it too raunchy he looked up at her and began swaying from side to side, a smile adorned on his face as he gazed at her lovingly through his mask. “Have I told you that you look stunning tonight? If I haven’t then I just did, you look very...edible, so much that I could eat you right now.” Winking at her, he kept his voice low so that no one could hear what they were talking about, his head hung low so that his mouth was close to her ear and he gently squeezed her hips.

Anouk used to dress to attract the boys’ attention, now she dressed only with him Alexei in mind. She had tried to call his attention this way before when they were not a couple and it never worked much, he only made a fuss about it saying guys will think of her as a slut, and it almost always ended on an argument with her saying she had heard worst thing attached to her persona and that she knew perfectly well what boys thought, hence the dressing. Now there was no way he will kept his eyes off her and she was very pleased by that, now he didn’t mind much how she dressed because it was all for him to enjoy. “You are always handsome and breathtaking, and you don’t need to be something for me, I just want you as you are.” She never got tired of telling him that, she never got tired of telling him she loved him. Anouk was very happy, he had given in for once and everything felt right in the world, now it was better, her doubts had subsided and she was feeling comfortable. Alexei’s touch always made her feel better; it always made her feel loved and healed. “It so was my intention, but I have to say I love you very much.” She wanted him to desire her, she wanted to feel his lust eyes on her because it made her inside tingle and she loved that feeling.
Everything he did, everything he said, it was just perfect for her, and even if it hurt it was pleasure. But she Anouk loved the way he was acting tonight, it was different Alexei, a confident one, someone who was ready to take the world in his arms and make the most of it. Since the fight and all the regretful words she had said to him he seemed to change a bit, he seemed to at least try and be more confident. She didn’t mean to change him but she had to admit that new air around him looked sexy as hell and suited him. It was about time that he stopped hiding and grew up like he should have done. “I’m glad to hear that because tonight I want to feel like a princess.” And that brought her an image of Cass carrying her princess style the night they met and also the night of the Sam’s party and many other times. Why she was thinking about him at a moment like this didn’t make sense in her head at all so shaking it she pushed those thoughts aside and focused all her attention on him. Kissing him was like flying in the space with the stars around her; each time they kissed he managed to make it special. It was incredible surprising seeing him taking the lead, he was walking ahead of her, his head up and not minding the people around her, that was her thing; it was something Anouk would do just because she knew people around them were minding their own business.
As he placed his hand on her waist hers went automatically to his neck and played with the back of his hair. She didn’t know why she loved doing it, but every time she had the chance her hands would just go do that, maybe because she loved Alexei’s shivers as she did, knowing it was his weak point as the neck was hers. And well, Anouk had another weak point, his voice so low near her ear made her shiver too, it made her tingle inside and that feeling in her chest appeared, a mixture of pain and pleasure, love and lust. She chuckled and smiled at him. “Yes, you already said that. You will have to wait until later to eat me up though, even if I just want to do the same to you so bad.” Anouk had wanted that for a very long time, to have him hovering over her, his face full of pleasure as he took her in. But she felt just as great by just cuddling with him, sleeping by his side or looking at him while he slept. Anouk loved doing that, watching his calm, relaxed and completely happy face while his arms were around her, she could just spend all her life looking at him just like that, she enjoyed every breathing of his, everything. “Did I already say that I love you? And that you are the reason I live for, the one and only in my life.” She hoped he will remember that forever.

Every time Anouk called herself a slut, he felt the need to defend her, though before, when ha had never seen her as a girlfriend sort of person, he didn’t have any regret thinking or even saying that but now he knew the truth. She was just beautiful, that was why every man wanted her, he was sure that ever guy, every man in that hall at that very moment wished that they could have Anouk in their arms instead of this tux stranger who didn’t seem to look awkward while even trying to dance with her. But he was lucky to have her, he was the envy of every man in the room today and he was smug about it because they were all thinking the right thing; that Anouk was a gorgeous human being. Rubbing his nose against hers as much as he could through his mask, he let out a little scoff as well as a smile. “Well if that’s what you when then I’ll be happy to oblige darling.” He knew she wanted him to be comfortable with himself, but when you had such a gorgeous girl on your arms for a night, he couldn’t help but stare at how better everyone else looked. He had gone for something classy, he wasn’t the type of person that was into making a big effort or wearing any suits that made him stick out than he already did. A simple, classy black suit was the first thing on top of the list, it didn’t stick out much, though he was sure that it would be sort of striking and noticeable since others would be in full costumes full of colour, but he decided to go for it; where else would he eve really wear a tux? And he was sure that Anouk would actually like him in one of them, so he went for it; allowing his spontaneity to control his thoughts for a moment, and then suddenly he had bought it using a credit card and was leaving the shop. The way Anouk was staring at him was worth buying it though because it made him feel wanted. “I love you very much too.”
It was pretty weird, he was confident of himself and he had no idea how he could be, it was as if ever since the fight he had really decided to change himself, add in a little bit of confidence mixed with some sexy mysterious features, and voila! There was a new Alex in town and he was ready to make Anouk proud of him because he was doing all this for her, he wanted her to be happy and make sure that she knew that he wasn’t a coward, that he was grateful to have her in his arms even if he hadn’t acted like that before. He was pretty sure that she could sense the change in him but they hadn’t talked about it yet, and if she did find it good she hadn’t said anything about it either; which was good because he was sure that somehow he’d be embarrassed. Smiling, he bowed his head at her. “Anything for you my princess, just tell me what you want and I’ll do it for you. Want a glass slipper? I’m sure I can arrange that somehow…” He winked at her, a sudden aura of cheekiness surrounding him and making him look even better than before.
Closing his eyes at her sudden touch behind the neck, he stopped himself from suddenly moaning; it was his weak point, the point where she could have him crumbling down sexually in front of him if she wanted to, but he knew she wasn’t that mean. It just made him feel great actually, he liked the feel of her hands just touching the small tuft of her right below on the neck; it tickled and made him want to move in closer. But that would be inappropriate of course, though he was sure that the majority of the students in the building had sex already, but the teachers wouldn’t like that…or would they? He chuckled though, erasing the thoughts out of his head and nodding it. “You do? That’s so sweet of you!” Smiling he moved just an inch closer, their bodies separated by just a think layer of air; it felt good being this close to her. As she spoke, he raised an eyebrow, a warm, happy smile on his face because what she had just said erupted a small, loving glow in him. Twirling her with one hand, he pulled her close to him again, one hand holding onto hers and the other on her hips. “You’re the reason that I live for, the reason why I want to be a better man, I love you mi amour.” Smiling, he bent down a little, gently grazing his lips with hers; teasing her so he could feel the shiver that she always somehow managed to let out.

In the past Anouk had been a slut, toying with boys and changing partners like shirts. She couldn’t blame Alexei for what he thought of her back then, she knew she well deserved the title and well she even was proud of it. She couldn’t see the harm in having body pleasure with different males if every part knew what they were doing and no one got hurt. Now of course things were different and Alexei had changed his point of view but he got insecure and she had to reassure him a lot of times that she wasn’t going to leave him for someone else and that past was past. Today though he seemed to enjoy the way boys looked at them, he seemed proud of having her in his arms and that made her extremely happy. For Anouk there was no one else who could beat him, no one else would ever be better than him, or handsome, he was just perfect with all his flaws included, he was real and he was himself. “You are giving into me again.” She said laughing softly. He looked stunning and she knew more than one girl was going to droll over him, not that she was going to allow that but it made her proud too, to have such a good looking boy all to herself. The first time Anouk had seen him it was the first thing that crossed her mind, then as she got to know him he just started to glow and that was the moment she knew she wouldn’t be able to tear her eyes apart from him anymore. He caught her sight and never left, and it never mattered how many times she tried to change that with other boys, they just couldn’t compare. “I know.”
Anouk was living her fairy tale every day, from the moment she opened her eyes to see him sleeping by her side to the moment she closed them with the same sight at nights and all through her dreams. She was sleeping in his bedroom most of the nights, loving the way his bed smelled of him and how he wrapped his arms around her, their legs entangled and their fingers laced. She was very proud of him, she had always been even when he got on her nerves and picked fights with her and they bickered, it had been a long time now since they did that thought, but they had fought a couple of times, the biggest and worst of them all being not so long ago. It had changed them both, he was trying to be more confident in himself and trusting her more and Anouk had learnt to control her temper better because it could hurt him deeply, hurt them both in fact but she could handle the pain on herself, only not on him. She laughed at him and shook her head, he could be so sweet and cheeky; she just loved all of him, every little tiny thing of him. “No need for that. I don’t want to be a Cinderella.” Anouk never liked much the Disney fairy tales, not since she started to grow up. Alexei loved them all and she tried to watch them for him. Those fairy tales weren’t realistic, they will just get your hopes up and when reality hits you then is nothing like that. Her life had never been a fairy tale, more a nightmare than anything else and it started to recently pick up with Alexei, with him everything was possible.
She chuckled realizing they had become one of those couples that used to sicken her so much, which looked at each other with love in their eyes and practically had hearts and candies hovering over them. She used to scold her mother for acting like a teenager; she used to avoid everything love related, everything that was cheesy and romantic even in the movie department. Now she was one of them, and it felt so great. But she had to tone it down a bit, as much as she wanted to squeeze him and tell him million times that she loved him, Anouk needed to relax on that just in case he will grow tired of it. She laughed as he twirled her with one hand and caught her, it was so cliché, so couple-thing to do something she had seen in the movies and that had always been dying to do that she was filled with happiness. At first she hadn’t see it coming, Alexei was so allergic to public displays of affection that it was surprising having him kiss her in the middle of a crowded room. But once his lips touched her everything else vanished and she shivered against his body, smiling against his lips. “You are already the best man Alexei, you just don’t believe it.” She said whispering once she pulled away. “How come now you are so used to public displays of affection huh?” Raising an eyebrow she chuckled and allowed herself to enjoy the music and the dancing with him.

Relationships were always difficult to get through, there were the ups and downs, the arguments and the fights; everything was horrible in a relationship when both partners were angry and upset with one another. But when both partners were in love, when they were happy with one another and they wanted to see each other’s faces every minute, it was the most perfect thing in the world. It was as if violins were playing cheesy, romantic music everywhere, there were white doves lying around, roses were everywhere, your whole world was more colourful, more brighter than what it ever was before and the person that you loved and wanted to have next to you for the rest of your life had some sort of white halo light that embraced them, making them look even more beautiful than before. He rolled his eyes at her, wiggling his eyebrows with a wide smirk. “Not my fault, you just dazzle me so much that I have to, but I’m trying right?” He didn’t think of himself as a good-looking person, he worked out quite a bit (though less than before because he never really had the time), but there was nothing all too dazzling about him was there? He had weird, ruffled hair, his nose was at a weird angle and his eyes were a bit too slanted to the side which made him look like he had a creepy stare, the man could pick out so many flaws out of himself some could even mistake him for a girl. But Anouk made him feel handsome, the way she looked up at him with eyes warm and full of love, the way that whenever he walked into a room and she would just smile because he seemed to brighten up her world; it was confusing that a girl like her could see him in such a way but t made him feel great about himself.
He knew Anouk didn’t believe in fairy tales or anything to do with romance or love, those stories abut Disney princesses who received their love right after a huge battle, Anouk didn’t like that at all. Sure Disney uplifted your spirits, made you think that something good could happen in your life and then when reality came cashing down it would push down your spirit, make you feel worthless and what not, but Alex never saw the movies in that way, they were just beautiful, something that was nice to watch and lovely to see. He rolled his eyes at Anouk but smiled, “For me, you’ll always be my princess, just remember that.”
Not having dance lessons was actually doing him some sort of justice, which was weird. Alex didn’t know how to dance, he knew what dancing looked like, he wasn’t that anti-social, from shows like Dancing on Ice and Strictly Come Dancing, he wasn’t that excluded out of the normal world that everyone found themselves in. So he was a bit surprised that he could actually dance, that he knew which way to move his body and mould it against Anouk’s own figure perfectly. Wiggling his eyebrows at her he let out a small chuckle at her question and shrugged his shoulders. His nose skimmed hers gently and his tongue flicked out to lash out against her lips, it felt great to be able to do something like this. “I’m trying sweetheart, I really am, and you are my best woman.” Twirling her once more, he pulled her close, so hard that she was pressed flush up against him. “It’s because no one can tell that it’s me.” Smiling at her, he leaned closer, nipping at her neck gently.

Anouk’s world revolved around Alexei, there was no doubt about that. As much as they hurt each other or fought she lived only for him. The way she saw him was flawless, perfect, and him stepping in the room whenever they went made her glow inside, her day was made by just staring at his face. She had never been a cheesy girl, her parents’ divorced made her avoid everything that had to do with romance, weddings and cheesy things but with Alex she wanted it all, she wanted the fairy tale, the warm feeling on her chest, the loud beating of her heart in her ears, her pulse running fast… It felt as if her world was different now, it had changed, though it was Anouk the one who had gone through the change and was able to look at things with a different perspective now. She could look around now and see things; she had even accepted getting married one day if it was with him. There was no doubt she was always giving into his wished and desires but there was no doubt also that it made her extremely happy doing so. There was nothing else she wanted. “I dazzle you? You should look yourself in the mirror.” She said sticking her tongue out at him. It was right, Anouk never believed in fairy tales or in romance at all, and she had avoided it as much as possible, but right now she felt as if she could start believing in them.
“I want you to be my prince.” It didn’t sound that bad if it was him, even when she knew they will fight and get hurt just like they already did, that there were worst things to come in the future and that it was impossible for them to be always happy and perfect. But it was moments like this that made her believe. “How cheesy that sounded for a girl who doesn’t like Disney movies huh?” She said laughing softly. Anouk was remembering the day he said they should watch the little mermaid, she had said no from the start and tried to convince him into watching another thing, but when she saw how happy it made for a reason she would never understand she ended up accepting. Alexei acted like a kid, and it was a side of him she loved very much, but she couldn’t complain about this side of Alexei either because it was… confident and sexier and it made her want to take him into the bathroom and let her imagination fly. He was moving so… freely with her in his arms that it was hard to believe.
It might be the mask or maybe the atmosphere but she loved it either way. It was still surprising seeing him act like that in public, she closed her eyes when he attacked her mouth. When he twirled her once again and pulled her close she clasped her hands together behind his neck. “I am your only woman.” She corrected him looking at his lips so close to hers. She pecked him once, twice and millions of times. She couldn’t help herself but she was afraid of taking it further and lost control in front of the public. The mask was doing it all better, it added mystery to everything and it seemed Alex was like a different person under it, it made her shiver in his arms and the warm feeling in her chest expanded. “I am starting to like that mask of you, can we give it some use tonight back home?” She said in a suggestive voice and raising her eyebrow then laughing.

The way Anouk’s world revolved around Alexei, was the same way Alexei’s life revolved around Anouk, he never ever thought for a second that he would ever find a girl as pleasing as Anouk. She was always there, in his dreams, in real life, in his mind, it was as if she never wanted to let him go and he was becoming this weird, really cheesy guy who never wanted to let his lover go. Love was something that he never really focused on, if it came to him then it came to him; that would be great and if it didn’t then he would have to wait right? He didn’t think that the feeling of love would coarse through his body, would ever make him giddy and overwhelmed (but in a good way), it just didn’t seem like something that Alexei would ever go through, but here he was, against all odds of finding a lover, with the most gorgeous girl in his arms as they danced. He didn’t think that he could let her go anymore, she was his life now, all he did was with her in mind, for her better, would it hurt her? Would it make her happy? He only thought about the best things for her and did everything with her there, they were true lovers now. Letting out another laugh, he pulled her in towards him a little bit. “I already look at myself.” He didn’t make any other comments though because he knew they could stand there dancing and argue back and forth who was better looking’ for him it would always be her anyway.
Raising an eyebrow when Anouk said she wanted him to be his prince, Alex couldn’t help but let out a laugh, because Anouk wasn’t the type of girl who loved anything to do with fairytales and Disney, she hated everything to do with it but seeing her call him her prince, it was cute. It was as if she were tolerating everything for him now, even the Disney movies that she hated for ages and ages and ages. “I know right? But yes, I shall be your prince and you’ll always be my princess.” Smiling, he leaned forward and nudged his nose against hers, it was cute, just too darn adorable. She was always giving into him, always and even though he liked it, he knew sometimes it hurt her just to give into him so this was what he was doing tonight; he would do whatever she wanted him to do, no questions asked. If she wanted sex for the night even he would probably agree but after thinking about it a lot, he wouldn’t tell her though because he was sure that she wouldn’t think he’d give in that easily.
He was actually becoming comfortable inside of his own skin now, the masquerade ball actually seemed to be the perfect place for him to come now because of the way he was acting and he loved it. He laughed and shook his head, “Not the only woman dear, my mother will always be first.” He laughed and shook his head “But right now, yes, you are the only woman in my life and I love you so very much.” He always would put his mom first before anyone else, even though she was dead and had been for some time, Alexei still loved her and would forever be a mommy’s boy no matter who made fun of him. His mom was everything and he knew Anouk knew that and probably accepted it too. Smirking into her millions and trillions of tiny pecks, he let out a laugh. “Maybe, like I said, I’m going to do everything you tell me tonight, I’m the one giving in mi amour.”

Anouk had never believed this was possible. Sure she had dreamt about it and wished it could come true but she had never really had hopes of it happening, it had been impossible at the time. So now every single minute she was with him was like a treasure, something she would appreciate and save on her memories forever. It was like the greatest present of life for her and she wasn’t going to waste it all, after all the suffering and praying it all ended good, now it was up to her to keep it safe and going on. Her love was given a chance and suddenly everything in her world changed. It got brighter and sparkly and happy and there was no clouds blocking the sun, her muse picked up, she could breathe again and all the pain in her chest was gone. How could Alexei even say that he hurt her when he brought her back to life again? Of course Anouk would be willing to sacrifice everything for him, even her own life if that helped him somehow. She never took a step without wondering it was going to affect him in some way and in how though she knew it wasn’t a very healthy thing to do, in case everything went to hell she had some ways of saving herself. She didn’t want to be dependent or clingy of him, and sure they both liked to spend time together but they still spent time apart, she wasn’t the full twenty four hours of the day with him and that was good.
Sighing she shook her head letting it go, was there any reason to argue over that tonight? “One can change, but I still don’t like Disney movies, they are too cheesy.” She rolled her eyes at him but made a thoughtful face. Anouk had loved them as a kid, little mermaid being her favorite, like any other kid she might go all happy over them and watch them time and time again. Reality came crashing down when she turned seven and since then she fully stopped watching them, and avoided everything that had to do with romance, love, fairytales… “Cheesy seems to be the theme of my life lately though.” And she didn’t dislike it, sure sometimes she wanted to throw herself something to snap out of it and stop being so… lovey-dovey? As her parents were because well it had never been her style but around Alexei it sort of went natural, she didn’t have to pretend being like that because she felt that way. Alexei didn’t seem to mind though because not only he acted the same way he encouraged her to do so, and who was her to deny him something he wanted if she could give it to him?
Anouk laughed at the remark, knowing of course his mom would always be first, she didn’t care at all. She understood perfectly well his feelings, and it pained her that he had a reminder of his suffering in his back, apart from the one on the heart. She ran her fingers along his back absent minded, she had wished so many times she could make at least ease that pain… but she only made it worst by almost dying on him and she was almost sure of the opening the old wound even if he hadn’t commented about it. Maybe she was wrong though but she had no way of knowing. “You know what I mean.” She said laughing. Anouk never wanted to get between his mother and him, and Carine had tried to act more like a friend than a step-mother to Alexei, she had always been worrying about approaching him the right way and often ran to her in hopes to get some advice. It made her laugh because at the time she had no idea of how to approach him herself. “This mask is making you more confident than I expected, you should save some of it for the future.” She said laughing softly. She licked her lips at the possibilities but not wanting to pressure him into doing something he wouldn’t like. “I think we need some hardcore make out session when we get home.” She said raising her eyebrow in a suggestive manner and smiling.

He smiled, nodding his head at her. “I know what you mean, but I still love the cheesiness.” Cheesiness was the epitome of Alexei’s life especially if you put it in the way that he thought of it. An antisocial art boy falling in love with a social butterfly who seemed to make his heartbeat flutter, he had been through hardships in his life that made him distant himself form people while his lover didn’t believe in marriage and was depressed…now if that wasn’t cheesy what was? Everyone’s lives, in some way, whether it was an extremely small area or a very large, was somewhat cheesy; some had more cheesiness than others while some did not. Swaying from side to side with her, he nodded his though because she seemed to understand it just like he was. “Yes, both your life and my life too.” There was no way he couldn’t love her because whenever he seemed to be thinking something, she always somehow seemed to know. She had spent the majority of the three years in which she loved him just analyzing him, even though that may have sounded slightly creepy to someone else, it did for him at first but now it just seemed natural because he liked to analyze her behavior too. He liked to see the way she held up a fork to her lips whenever she ate or even the way she moved a hand to push some of her hair back; it was adorable. He was sure that a lot of lovers, past lovers, people like his parents did the same; they looked at their other half with admiration and love in their eyes and with a warm, satiating hunger going through their bodies. It was cheesy but it was true, he just loved her to bits and he was sure that she knew it too.
Mother’s were and should have always been the first in a person’s life, they carried you for nine months, went through a lot of hardships just to make sure you were born and then spend at least the next twenty years taking care of you, feeding, clothing and sheltering you from harm’s way as much as they possibly could. He didn’t really think that anything could be greater than a mother’s love, sure there were a father’s love but they ever held the bond that a mother and a child could ever have. The realization that hit a woman when they realized they were pregnant always rushed an overwhelming sense of emotions ran through them and the first bond was formed in under five seconds. He knew that the ledge that had fallen on his back, the scar was still there to prove it that he had been in the fire, that his mother had died. It didn’t sting anymore like it used to when he was younger, but every time he actually brushed it, he would remember the pain, the crying and the screams that were in that house when he was young; it was horrifying. “I know what you mean.” Letting out a little laugh, he leaned forward and pecked her on the lips once, twice and then a third time but for a longer time and deeper. She really was an intoxicating character and he loved her because of that. She managed to make the worse situations better with just a small smile. Laughing he nodded his head at her. “I’ll keep this mask, I can see you like it very much and I actually do too.” Laughing once more, he nodded his head at her and pulled her closer so her body was pressed flush against his. “I’d also like that very much, but we’re not going home yet darling, we’ve still got some time to waste here.” Looking around the room he saw other couples dancing, he had slightly forgotten that the both of them were in a crowd of people and the surprise could be seen on his face as he took everyone in.

No, Anouk definitely wasn’t a cheesy girl at all. But she had her moments and lately those moments had become more frequent. She knew she better enjoy them while it lasted because the honeymoon stage pass by very quickly, when all the excitement subsides and everything is done the fights start, the wishes of spend less and less time with your partner until you only spend together the necessary time… It was natural, but somehow she didn’t want that to happen either. Their future though promised to be a bit more exciting than the normal couples and not in a good way, a lot of things were waiting for them ahead. Anouk knew every of his facial expressions, every movement, every smile he had, the way he interacted with the people… Alexei’s was her world, her entire world. “I wouldn’t like to become like mom and dad though, one of those couples people can’t stand because they are too cheesy.” She said chuckling. She was sure they were pass that already, Anouk was sure the way her mother looked at her step dad, as if her world was him and all she could see was him, was exactly the same way she looked at Alexei if not a lot more. But was that going to save their relationship? Was that going to make it better for their parents? She doubted it but she could hope right?
For the way he was looking right now Anouk knew he was thinking about his mother; not only that but the fire and all the horrifying things that came with it. She had tried with all her might to erase a bit of that pain, to make it more bearable for him at least but not everything was possible. She looked at him with a smile on her face and moved her hand to his face, caressing his check and then dropping it to rest in his chest above his heart. “She lives in you Alex, she always will.” She wasn’t sure he had completely got over the situation, she didn’t want him to forget his mother of course, what she wanted was for him to stop blaming himself for what happened, to get rid of the pain and being able to look back without flinching. Whenever Alex’s kissed her she felt her stomach go full of butterflies, she forgot how to breathe, how to think and even how to stand, it was a good thing he had a firm grip on her or she would have fallen, her knees giving away. She rubbed their noses playfully and raised an eyebrow. “You will? Well it gives some play you know. I make things… mysterious and exciting.” Anouk kissed him again her imagination running a bit wild as she tried to push those images back.
She laughed at Alexei’s face as he realized they were surrounded by people. “Well it seems your mind was already there.” Hers pretty much was there too but she had to come back to earth. Looking around she saw everyone minding their own business, she also saw some classmates and friends whose costumes she recognized and waved at them. “This is nice, being able to act like a normal couple outside the walls of our rooms.” Which was where they spent most of their time together, not the safest place though since their parents could walk on them but they weren’t always making out so they wouldn’t think anything out of it if she was sitting cross-legged in the bed and he was on his desk, both of them talking. Anouk knew they couldn’t act like normal couples, though Paris was big and there were few chances of someone bumping into them Alexei was always afraid and they took more precautions than necessary. “Should we take something to eat or drink?” She was famishing and thirsty, she had tried to avoid the flutes of champagne around the room because well, alcohol was a tempting idea when you are in a party and she couldn’t afford to lost control in front of him. Not to mention it will just complicate things with her withdrawal.
