Welcome to Gaia! ::

"Ah... Fire and Ice can die to though... yes, they can die. Absolute power does not exist unless it is by the god & or gods correct? mmm...I don't know." Poinsettia's eyes flashed ice blue before returning to their original mix.
((TTFN mrgreen I'm going to be watching tv. woo!))

Namine found herself once more on the dance floor. Her steps were light and her heart was giddy. She didn't think that anything could ruin her night. She glided effortlessly to the dance floor a wide smile on her face. Her emerald eyes looked up to the alcove. She wondered if Victor were still arranging himself. With a giggle she walked deeper into the crowd. Maybe he would come down and grace her with another dance. Her happiness swelled forth as she thought about her new friend Ayla. She couldnt wait to tell Ayla about the wonderful feelings within her. She wanted to share with her the fact that she was truly and well a woman. A woman who experienced love and passion in the arms of her beloved.

"Ayla! Ayla!" She yelled. In her excitement she forgot where she was and many patrons turned to look at her. Many of the female patrons snickered but lost face when a few of the males approached her. "Im sorry" She told them "But I am in search of a friend right now...maybe we can dance later." Namine could not see Ayla, the crowd was too thick and many of the colors intermingled, making difficult to discern one person from another. Ayla my friend where have you gone off to? Having nothing else to do Namine accepted the invitation of patron and swirled into the crowd in his arms.

Namine curtsied as the dance ended. "That was fun indeed young sir. Maybe later we can come together again for another dance." The patron bowed obligingly though she had sensed that he wished to continue their dance.

"As you wish my dear. I trust you will allow me to dance with you further as the night progresses."

Namine found herself laughing its light tone ringing around her. "You are delightful. What is that saying? Ah...yes..absence makes the heart grown fonder." With a flourish she turned moving to a less populated area. Many a patron tried to catch her attention for a dance but Namine politely declined. She moved towards the balustrade letting the fresh air from outside wash over her. Her emerald eyes searched the darkness then looked up to marvel at the red moon. She wondered were her friend had gone. She wished she were here to talk to. A waiter nearby offered her a wine glass and she took it with a thanks issuing from her lips. "It truly is a splendid night."

Alsvid was filled with passion, passion he had never felt before. As they kissed he felt that he never wanted to bring his lips away from her again. The warmth of her lips was nearly enough to make him mad with lust. He wrapped his arms around her and pressed their bodies together. This moment was perfect and he wanted it to go on forever. He was completely oblivious to the fact that other guests were nearby talking and laughing amongst themselves and enjoying the party. At this point he couldn't care any less for the existance of anyone besides Skyler and himself. They stood there kissing, bathed in the light of the glowing red moon. He forgot everything, his family, his victims, he even forgot about the party. All that mattered was this kiss.

Namine found herself humming to the lovely music that had begun to play. She found herself inoxerably drawn back into the main area where the dance had begun. She watched everyone dancing, enthralled with the music same as she was. "They sure have a wonderful orchestra here. I must praise the maestro on such a wonderful piece" she said aloud.

Her eyes travelled along the room to the location where the orchestra was seated. Her eyes settled on the man who was conducting the piece. He was dressed simply and she assumed it was so he didn't draw attention to himself. Even so it was in good taste. The color of his attire made the red and oranges of his hair come to life. If she hadn't known better she would have thought it was fire in its mildest form. Namine sighed and leaned against one of the pillars. She suddenly regretted leaving the dance floor. If she had known this beautiful piece would be played then she might have stayed in the young man's arms. The wine glass she held was forgotten as she closed her eyes and let the music consume her.

They stood there in silence, staring into each other's eyes. Alsvid noticed the red in Skyler's cheeks and the bead of sweat on her face. He regretted that his own pale, undead skin could not be so expressive and decided, instead, to voice how he felt. "That was incredible. Nobody has ever captured my heart the way you have tonight and no one ever shall. My darling, I want this to last forever. If only we never had to part I would feel this joy for an eternity." His gaze drifted from her eyes to her lips and then back to her eyes. His hand was still on her cheek and he felt as if he never wanted to move it again.

"I would let you stay with me for all eternity my dear." Alsvid replied quickly kissing her repeatedly on the lips . "There is nothing in the world I would prefer." He had known passion before, but not in this form. He was completely over come with emotion. He was happier than he could remember ever being. He hugged her again and held her close, almost as if he was afraid that if he let go he would lose her forever.
