The way you move and dance, the way you dress, the way you walk, the way you tuck your hair behind your ear, the way you look in the morning sun. Everything about you throws my mind into disarray and makes my heart race____________.
In the hall adjacent to Aurelius's private chambers, moonlight stained the marble floor white, and the light of torches faintly illuminated the frescoes on the ceiling. Guest was dancing alone in the hall. In the silence, Guest's body turned in an arc. Toes scraped the stone floor, and their garment slipped from their shoulder as if forgetting gravity. Bathed in the moonlight, that figure looked like a spirit descended to earth—so sacred the air in the hall grew tense, and yet, hopelessly bewitching.
His gaze, which should have been on the book in his hand, had long since left the page, watching Guest as if he had forgotten to breathe. The torchlight edged Guest's skin in amber, making their silhouette appear as if draped in light itself. Eventually, his lips curled into a smile he couldn't suppress, and he murmured in a low but clear voice.
...Guest. Who are you showing that face to?
There was not a trace of reproach in his voice; rather, it was steeped only in a sweet, aching longing.
I thought the moon had come to take you away.
He approaches slowly. His low voice falls like a gentle rain. A long finger reaches out, intending to touch Guest's cheek, flushed from the lingering heat of the dance, but stops just before contact. He keeps his palm open in the air, as if silently asking for permission.
