One night after a horrible week of fighting with her crush, a worn out and emotionally exhausted Shadow found a pink note on her door. She yanked it off, the note almost catching on fire in her grasp. “Meet me in the ballroom @ 11 PM. Love, yours truly. Shadow thought…”What’ve I got to lose. He don’t like me..” She ran into her room, and started searching for her purple princess dress. Throwing it on, dabbing on some makeup and trying to make herself look as decent as she could. When she opened her door, Lunatik, her best friend, stood outside with a black rose and a big ol smile. “Luns! What’re you doing here?” Luna stepped forward with the rose in hand. “Yours truly wanted me to put this in your hair!” Shadow raised an eyebrow. “Why?” Luna shrugged. “They wanted me to.” Luna stood on her tip toes and stuck the flower in her best friend’s hair. “Have a good time Shads!” After giving her a quick hug, Luna skipped off humming happily to herself. Shadow watched her leave, and then shrugged, making her way to the ballroom quietly. The door creaked open, as she slowly pushed it open, finding it only lit by candle light. “Hello?” Shadow called. “Anybody here?” Footsteps echoing from the back of the room answered her question. Shadow stepped toward them, cautiously. The footsteps kept coming forward until her hand felt a shoulder, and a gloved hand holding onto hers. Another gloved hand held her hip. Shadow knew almost immediately who she was now dancing with, but she said nothing. The venom this demon had spat at her a few days before still made the burn marks on her heart vividly sting. She felt his other two hands grip her hands, pulling her toward him until her head rested on his chest. “…Shades?” Shadow’s face hardened. “What do you want from me?” His fingers gently stroked her hair. “Nothin. But I know ya want somethin from me.” Shadow rolled her eyes. “Sweet talking your way out of this ain’t gonna work. I don’t even think you know how much you hurt me.” She started to move away from him, trying to wipe a burning tear off of her cheek, but Angel removed it first, gently running a gloved finger to remove it. “If I didn’t know how much I hurt you, why did you come here?” Shadow buried her face into his shoulder. “I don’t even know…” Angel chuckled softly. “Ya came here for the same reason I did….to talk.” Shadow let out a choked sob, and Angel rubbed her back, calming her down with the gentle gesture. “Angel, what is there to talk about?! You told me to my face that you hated me and you’re sick of me. Why did you even bring me here?” Angel moved her hair out of her face. “To say I’m sorry…and to ask ya somethin..” Shadow sighed. “Go on.” Angel hugged her. “Babe, I’m sorry for I everythin I said ta ya. I lost control, and ya didn’t deserve any of what I said.” Shadow hugged him back. “I deserved some of it…you know that.” Angel shook his head. “I shouldn’ta said it…you probly’ fuckin hate me…”  Shadow cracked a smile. “Angie, I could never hate you. You could blow my brains out right now and I’d still be madly in lo-.” She stopped herself, and looked away. Angel caught it, and shot her an evil grin. “You’d still be what now?” Shadow scowled. “I said nothin.” Angel lifted her chin up still grinning. “Nah, ya definitely said somethin babe, spill it.” Shadow rolled her eyes, finally muttering. “You could blow my brains out right now and I’d still be in love with you…happy now?” Angel grinned. “Ya finally admitted it..tell me, what do you think?” Shadow placed her hand back on his shoulder. “Just dance with me, ya fuckin fool.” Angel laughed. “Fair enough, toots.” He let go of her to stride on over to a record player, finding the song he wanted before walking right back to Shadow and grinning.  “Sound familiar?” Shadow rolled her eyes. “How could I forget? It’s our duet…” Angel grinned, offering her his hand. She took it, and they danced the night away. In the middle of a slow song, Shadow found herself falling asleep. Her eyes remained on Angel, who looked a bit drowsy himself. She began leaning forward, and Angel, his eyes drifting shut leaned forward as well until their lips connected. Shadow’s eyes flew open when she realized what was happening and pulled away, blushing wildly. “D-Did we j-just?!” Angel smirked. “Damn straight.” I ship them, fuck off. >:)  -- source link
