Title: Day of the Dead
A gift for hazelhawthorne
Who requested: An unusual pairing involving one or more minor characters
With a rating of: ooh maybe PG-13 but nothing filthy
A/N: I hope this is what you meant by "unusual pairing"...
Tonight, they say, the dead are supposed to visit the living. Am I living? Or dead? I feel numb, icy tears falling on frozen cheeks. I have always had a reputation for being cold. A cold, hard bitch. Bella was the passionate one, Andromeda was the rebel and I was what? The ice princess. So many years gone and nothing has changed.
I mourn Lucius who lives, but may as well be dead. I never loved him, not the way I loved you, but I could never have had you for a thousand reasons beyond my arranged marriage. Ours is not a bad match. He is a hard man, powerful, ambitious, but he is not cruel to me. So I am safe, protected by money and priviledge and coldness.
You were the only one to thaw my heart, you made me burn so hot that it must have showed. You made me come alive, you must have seen that. Please tell me that you saw that. You brought me to life with your smile, your laughter, your touch. Then you killed me when you died.
Day of the dead. Are you watching me, my love? Are you, Lily? Are you?
