- It was easy for a drunken fool, to mistake a good time with an actual meaningful event. As he had always thought himself unattractive, and simply undesirable. Therefore, as he lay upon the floor, with this woman on top of him, his body brimming with an yearning that he had never felt before. Such was a mixture of arousal and infatuation, but certainly not love. Unfortunately, he didn't know the difference. For some reason the sudden emotions and feelings that this woman had stirred up, coupled with the many drinks he had downed, made for something that Remian could not discern.
So as Daliah was ripped from his body by Victoria, he gazed up at his new companion with a dazed smile of acknowledgement. Not because he was happy to see her, but because he couldn't wait to tell her the news. All that was left was the actual daunting task of getting up off his back, since the room was still spinning. But luckily, the Princess was more than happy to offer a hand. She leaned down and grabbed his arm, as he rolled forward and finally got some traction beneath his feet to stand in an upright position, although still slightly slouching.
"We are getting married." He whispered, dropping his head down on her shoulder to get closer to her ear, but also, for some much needed support. Alcohol on an an empty stomach, when this happened to be his first time drinking, was a formula for disaster. Albeit, he was too high up on adrenaline to feel his stomach starting to sink under the pressure. "She is the one. Daliah is the one. So pretty, and perfect, and..." His voice trailed off as his eyes peered though the crowd over Victoria's shoulder.
There, in plain sight, was the woman he had just been talking so fondly of, dropped down onto her knees kissing a man that he believed to be a dwarf. He was short, and round-- his cheeks rosy and his stubbing fingers running all over the back of his future wife! Remian didn't know how to feel at first. Perhaps his eyes had been playing tricks on him. But it wasn't long before they pulled away, and stood to her feet, only to have the smaller gentlemen led her out of the pub. Now he was feeling ill, his legs felt like they might collapse underneath him.
"Sh-she is gone. She left...with...but...I thought..." Remian's amber eyes lost their shine, as he crumpled onto the floor at Victoria's feet. His knees folded beneath him, and he sat back on his heels, dropped his forehead into her belly. "She lied to me. She said I was the most handsome man in the bar. And then she leaves with....with a dwarf..." He sighed heavily, feeling like his heart had cracked in two, and shattered into a million pieces in his chest. Remian had thought that kissing was special. His mother had always told him that a single kiss was all she ever needed to know she in love with Ha'an. But now it seemed he was just as loose as Ronan, or Victoria. He put his lips on a woman who had already been unfaithful to him, only moment after the relationship had started.
Remian didn't want to think about it anymore, but the scene was playing over and over again in his head. Why had she said such nice things, only to run away from him? Was she lying? Was he every bit as unlovable as he thought he was? "Victoria, my mask." He whispered, softly into the bare part of her belly-- that was exposed in her organic elvish clothing. His arms gently lifted and rested around her waist, his hands clasping over the bump of her rear and resting there comfortably as he sulked internally over the loss of his love. Remian hadn't even realize how inappropriate this may have been, or how informally he had referred to her. He merely wanted comfort. And right here, right now, he felt comforted.
"I should not have taken it off. I scared her away." By now, the bar wasn't nearly as loud. It was filled with people who had far too many drinks, or were so preoccupied with the date they had acquired during the festivities that they didn't notice the broken bird on his knees before the Princess. Remian turned his head and rested his ear on Victoria's stomach, hugging her lower body closely to his chest. "Other than that, tonight went well." He was proud of himself, none the less. This was something he would have never thought to do in his life. And he couldn't help but be grateful for the experience.
