*Endless Sky~Endless Land: Love Story of the Gypsies*

http://i103.photobucket.com/albums/m149/urallnuckingfutz/fairy/z5.jpg

Gypsies are nomads, travelers that roam the land. They follow no guidelines, no rules, just let their spirits drift where they may go. They Gypsies originated from the Romani people, but over the years, other nomadic gypsies branched out their horizons and spread across Europe, becoming the third largest population of nomadic travelers.

These are the Yeniche gypsies. These travelers reside mostly in Germany, Belgium, France, Switzerland, and Austria. They Yeniche flourished in these areas, even having established their very own articulate language.

But times in the 15th century are hard for the Gypsies, and the Yeniche from the various countries listed are making their way to Paris, France. There, they believe they will make better money, and it may be safer for them. They gypsies from Belgium, Switzerland, Austria, and Germany were sent word from the French gypsies of a secret place they can reside, together. Its a small shake just on the very outskirts of Paris...but a trap door will lead the gypsies to sanctuary when they are not trying to pan handle for money.

But things are not always as they seem...Captain Andre Beauvais has a strong and severe distaste of the gypsy race, and wants to rid the city of Paris of their supposed with craft and sorcery. But, what if one of Captain Beauvais's soldiers falls for the fiery eyes of a gypsy girl...and what if his daughter is swept off her feet by the charming gypsy boy? Things certainly will get out of hand...and perhaps will get out of hand.

*Note: Gypsies have various talents that they use to make money, such as playing instruments, singing, dancing, palm reading, tarot card readers, fortune tellers, ect.

The usual instrument gypsies played are as follows:
Violin, flute, mandolin, tambourine, Spanish guitar.

[angelgirl1419]

It was late, and the darkness of the sky covered sleepy Paris like a blanket. Alaina herself was tired as she made her way to the Shack that harbored that gypsies.

Her feet were throbbed from a day of dancing, and her throat was as dry as the desert, the first thing she wanted to do was sleep.

Upon reaching the Shack, Alaina hung a single latern above the door, symbolizing that gypsies were welcome. Alaina pulled the Persian rug back that lay on the floor, to reveal a perfectly square outlining in the floor. Sliding her fingers in the cracks, Alaina opend the trap door.

The noise was that of cheeful singing, and instruments...which Alaina loved, but not with the pounding headache she currently had.

[Starry_Catastrophe]

Remy strummed on the spanish guitar and sang along with the joyous crowd as the women danced by the fire.His eyes were mirroring the joyful scene as a smile curled his pale lips.He heard the trap door open and looked up,continuing playing the instrument.


Granville walked along the path of dirt in the town of Paris.Except for the occasinal lanters darkness cloaked him heavily,making him feel tired and weak.With a tired yawn he wiped the sandmans sleep powder from his warm,brown eyes.

[Snow_Angel_Kirei]

Marianna watched the other gypies dancing and she smiled a little. She picked up her flute and played along with the spanish guitar she heard.

Duke sighed as he sank into a comfy chair in his home after a long day of work. He was exhausted, and sleep called his name.

[angelgirl1419]

Alaina sighed as she lounged on a stool next to Remy, taking a jug that was lying on the ground, and taking a swig of whatever remained inside.

"Do any of you ever stop?" Alaina asked Remy and the others with a laugh. "Your making my headache worse..."

[Snow_Angel_Kirei]

Marianna placed down her flute, and smiled a little in Alaina's direction. "Us? Stop? Out of the question!" she teased.

[Starry_Catastrophe]

Remy smiled,but said nothing as he continued to strum the guitar at his steady pace.

[angelgirl1419]

Alaina only smiled softly. "Well, keep a look out for travellers." She requested. "I'm going to bed."

With that, Alaina made her way to a series of long doors on the left side of the extremly spacious room. She pulled a key out from her skirt, and unlocked the door to her own chambers.

[Starry_Catastrophe]

Remy nodded and continued to play as the guitar's rythmn echoed out into the party go-er's ears.

[<Lilith.:.Winters>]

{ Woo! You've started! ^^ }

He strode back into his bed-chambers after one too many business travels. Armand was glad to slip into the warmth of his sheets and relish its velvety softness.

Perhaps tomorrow would prove to be less hectic.

Whatever the case, he needed rest.
Gladly, his mind dimmed as his striking eyes closed slowly...

○•♣•○

Allete felt the beat and strumming of her people's guitars, calling to her as she paced softely through the cold, wary streets of Paris to her home.

Then again, could any of her people consider any place 'Home'?

She almost chuckled at her ignorance.

[angelgirl1419]

Alaina lit a few candles around her chamber, letting her garb fall to the floor in heaps, so that only her chamise remained.

Alaina stretched out onto her small mat that lay on the floor, pulling the cotton blankets up to her chin. Hopefully she could drown out the majority of the music. If she had felt better...Alaina would be out there with them. But not tonight, the only thing on her mind, was sleep.

[<Lilith.:.Winters>]

Allete carefully rounded the corner, only to find the assurance she needed.

Her people were there, celebrating, as always, with the sounds of their merry music which wafted through the soft breeze; Which at that point, seemed almost to be nonexistant.

She grinned, stepping on the grounds to join in the fun. She pulled her violin out of its somewhat scratched case, and played along to the current beat.

[Starry_Catastrophe]

Remy smiled and looked at the violin now playing with the flute and his strumming.

[Snow_Angel_Kirei]

Marianna continued to play, hearing a violin enter the music.

[<Lilith.:.Winters>]

Allete smiled, playing until she approached the girl who was playing the flute expertly.

She remembered her manners into which she was taught so long ago, by the English woman she spent most of her years with as a child.

"You play the flute rather lovely." Allete smile softely, joining her, somewhat carefully. "I have seen you around here before. Forgive me for not getting aquainted with you sooner...What is your name?" She inquired softely, placing her violin back in its case once more.

[Snow_Angel_Kirei]

Marianna smiled a little as she placed her flute down in her lap. "My name is Marianna. And thank you; you play the violin beautifully."

[angelgirl1419]

Alaina may have gotton what seemed like an hour before she woke up...it must have been close to 5:00 in the morning...time enough for her to get up at any rate.

Alaina slipped on a fresh pair of days cloths, and headed out of her chambers, tambourine in hand.

[elizaTrickster]

Felicie decided it was time to get up. She threw off her coverlet and stuggled to get up. Maybe she shouldn't have stayed up with the band. She had a living to make after all.

[angelgirl1419]

Alaina waltzed into the main section of the underground haven, holding her tambourine by herside.

"Come on all of you! We need to be out in the square by six o'clock!" Alaina paused. "Well come now!"

[elizaTrickster]

Felicie grumbled but grabbed her tarot deck. Today, she was going to be a fortune teller. "I'm comin'! No need to rush us. Some of us have got to eat as well you know? All right, it's a lot of us. No worries."

[Starry_Catastrophe]

Remy set down his guitar and hurried to the main room,grabbing a fruit on the way.

[angelgirl1419]

Alaina laughed as and elder gypsy, Monsieur Vagrant as the children like to call him, tossed her a piece of bread. "Thank you! were off now!" Alaina walked to the trap door, which she opend slowly.

Peeking her head up, she made sure know one was about the shack. "Alright...were ready!"

[Starry_Catastrophe]

Remy was behind her,"Ready!"he called.

[elizaTrickster]

"Most assuredly so!" Felicie shouted.

[angelgirl1419]

Alaina left the trap door open for the rest to follow through. "Hopefully there'll be people out in the square today. Certainly more than yesterday."

[Starry_Catastrophe]

Remy nodded and walked beside her,"Are you dancing today?"he asked her,looking through his tarot cards.

[angelgirl1419]

Alaina opened the door to allow them to pass through, and nodded to Remy's question.

"Aye, just like every other day." She finished with a warm smile. "Will you be accompaning me today with your guitar?"

[Starry_Catastrophe]

He looked at the guitar on his back,"If you want me to-I will."he smiled warmly at her.

[angelgirl1419]

"Well, I suppose you will be playing." Lucia said with a laugh, as they neared the square. "I hope Captain Beauvais dosn't show like he did last time...that would completly ruin our days pay."

[Starry_Catastrophe]

"I oughta shink him."muttered Remy,"He better not come barge in on one of my tarot readings,or there will be hell raised."he laughed.

[angelgirl1419]

Alaina rolled her eyes with a laugh. "Oh, i'm sure there will be, Remy. And you'll be just the one to give it to them."

[Starry_Catastrophe]

"Well,i'll be reading and causing there destructive future,that's for sure."he said moodily.

[angelgirl1419]

Alaina patted his shoulder. "Don't break out the sorcery yet, Remy." She joked with a laugh. "They already believe were capable of witchcraft."

[<Lilith.:.Winters>]

He shuffled through his silken sheets, stretching and somewhat groaning at the arrival of another day. Damn his urgent parchments awaiting to be signed.

Dressing slowly after taking a relaxing bath, he stepped down his luxurious steps into the spacious saloon, noticing that everything was already in its proper order.

It was apparent that his visitors were going to be a bit late.

Armand almost cringed, remembering who was going to step into his home.


○•♣•○


Allete recollected her thoughts as she stumbled to her feet.
Glancing around, she noticed that everyone was already gone.

"Good grief," She murmered, collecting her case and changing into clean garments and clothes. It seemed they had already moved into the square to earn some form of valuables.

She glanced at her violin case. She supposed she would attend as well.

She walked off.

[angelgirl1419]

Alaina placed her hands high on her hips as they reached the square. "Hmph...I had figured that Arlette would have been here by now. She shrugged, and laid an old worn out top hat on the ground, to collect the sou's and, if my the good grace of god she would be luck, some francs.

[Starry_Catastrophe]

Remy started to lay out his cards by the foutain and set his spanish guitar on his side.He opened the case and took out the guitar,tuneing it and strumming a bit.

[<Lilith.:.Winters>]

Allette practically swam through the large crowd of people visiting the square.

Fighting back a cringe, she moved through them until, breathing a sigh of relief, she spotted Alaina preparing the day's work.

"Hey!" She grinned, striding towards her. "I kind of...overslept." Allette sighed, opening her violin case once she reached her.

[angelgirl1419]

Alaina rubbed the heel of her foot, as it was still aching from yesterdays dance...still, she would have to manage.

"Lucky girl..." She drawled upon seeing Arlette. "I hardly got any sleep at all!" She said with a sweet laugh. "Ah, by the by, we must start."

[<Lilith.:.Winters>]

{ It's spelled 'Allette.' xD }

"I suppose so," She replied, noticing Alaina rubbing the heel on her foot. "Too much dancing yesterday?" She asked absently, worry crossing her features.

[angelgirl1419]

((Why do I always mess up your characters names? XD))

Alaina laughed, thumping her tambourine with her index finger to hear the appealing melody of the jingles. "Too much dancing every day, Allete." Alaina said with a winking eye. "Too much singing too, but my throat is much more fogiving to me than my feet."

[<Lilith.:.Winters>]

Allete beamed, chuckling as she begin to play her violin. She knew what a pain it was to have a sore throat when you need to sing. Luckily it didn't happen to her often either.

"True as that may be," She replied for a moment, grinning. "Take it easier on yourself, alright?"

[angelgirl1419]

Alaina tossed her hair to the opposite side of her head. "Of course!" She said with a careless grin. "And you too."

[Snow_Angel_Kirei]

Marianna yawned, as she was last person to finally come into the square. Ya know, I gotta wake up earlier. She thought to herself, placing down her flute case.

[<Lilith.:.Winters>]

{ I...don't know what to post. xDD }

Allette smiled softly as she played her violin, watching as a few generous gentlemen and few ladies dropped francs, much to her surprise.

She felt happy, knowing that they would receive great earnings...

[LillyPadDooDa]

((Question: Who's going to be in love with Anna?))

[angelgirl1419]

((Well, I think Elizatrickster and Starry have Gypsie guy characters. Eliza hasn't been posting, so i'm guessing it might be Starry's character...he's the only option. You just have to RP to find out. XD))

[angelgirl1419]

{ I...don't know what to post. xDD }

Allette smiled softly as she played her violin, watching as a few generous gentlemen and few ladies dropped francs, much to her surprise.

She felt happy, knowing that they would receive great earnings...

((Thats fine Lillith. XD))

Alaina sat indian style, her legs crossed over each other near Allete, tapping her Tambourine gently in rytem with Allette. She would dance later...no sense in hurting her feet this early on.

[<Lilith.:.Winters>]

With her eyes filled with excitement, Allete took a break from playing her violin to show Alaina the amount of gold and valuables they had accumulated.

"See? We can give plenty to the rest of our group!" Allete smiled happily. "What a celebration and feast there will be tonight!"

She stepped away from them to see what she could buy as a surprise for the celebration. Wandering around the city, she curiously peeked at the small shops all around the pathways...

Pausing, she turned towards the sound of hooves tapping steadily on the cobblestone ground. She raised an incredulous eyebrow as a handsome young man peeked through his small carriage window at her.

He gave a small smirk.

'A...nobleman?' She thought in surprise.

○•♣•○


'A young woman...' He thought with interest. Up until he noticed her clothes, he didn't realize she was a gypsy. Although her hair was dark, her pallid skin and pale jade eyes didn't make her look like one...

He also noticed that in her eyes, there was an unwavering purity...

Armand was definitely surprised.

"Young lady," He said after studying her perfect posture. She didn't seem to be uneducated. Actually, she seemed to have a remarkable intellect. "May I know your name?"

Giving a small curtsy, she replied. "It is simply Allete..." She never knew her last name, after all. Being left and abandoned, no matter how much luck she had with the gracious English woman, didn't allow her to find out about her own family.

"I am Sir Armand Coeur," He replied, giving a small nod on his head. "Are you, by any chance, a gypsy?"

"Yes, I am." She smiled, proud. Even though she wasn't born a gypsy, her nature, free and winged, let her feel like one. They had accepted her, with unwavering kindness just two years ago when she was 15.

Just as her English woman guardian did so long ago, the gypsy's treated her as a daughter...

"How interesting. I suppose they are starting to perform here in the square...?"

"Actually, we are Sir Armand. Would you like to see us in the square?"

"I'd be delighted to. Care to climb in my carriage? I'll save you the long walk."

Hesitant at first, she sensed that he was indeed with no ill intentions. She beamed.

"Certainly."

[angelgirl1419]

With one hand cupped above her eyes to block out the sun, and another hand planted lightly on her hip, Alaina simpered a smile as she saw the faint outline of Alette stepping into a very fine looking carriage.

Alaina made a speculating motion as she tapped her finger to her lip, and all at once shrugged. Picking up her tambourine, she tapped it joyfully, and danced around the square with light, poetic movements, her smile beaming to any one that dropped any coins into her hat.

[<Lilith.:.Winters>]

"It seems to me that your people are certainly lively."

"You have no idea."

Armand grinned at Allete and offered her a polite hand to clamber out of the carriage. Obliging, Allete smiled back and pointed out the gypsy, Alaina, who was dancing.

"Alaina is very dear to me. I consider her more than a good friend; a sister, if you must..."

Armand gave a small smile. "She has certainly many artistic talents. Both of you are vey beautiful, I dare say."

Allete raised and incredulous eyebrow, but laughed softely. Surely he was joking. "Well, thank you, Sir Armand...


"I'll give you a proper introduction to Alaina," Allete skillfully changed the subject. She was not used to such compliments, especially from nobles.

"Certainly." Armand watched her, intrigued as she gracefully, and gently walked off to Alaina who was still dancing beautifully.

Allete was certainy a refreshing difference to the usual giggling girls he met before.

[angelgirl1419]

Alaina bit her bottom lip quizically and arched a fine eyebrow as she watched Allete and a very aristocratic man approuch her.

She ceased to dance, and smiled at a young girl that dropped a coin into the tattered hat, and lingering for a while, stared up at Alaina. She smiled at the young girl, and watched as she scampered off.

She tossed her ebony hair out of her eyes, wondering what Allete was up to.

[<Lilith.:.Winters>]

"Alaina!" Allete grinned, stepping close to her, and faced Armand by Alaina's side. "Let me introduce you to this gentleman. Alaina, this is Sir Armand Coeur," She made a small gesture towards Armand, who gave a small bow.

"...Sir Armand, this is Alaina." Allete grinned and glanced at her dear friend.

"It's a pleasure, Miss."

[angelgirl1419]

Alaina stared at her friend with a quizical look, and smiled at the gentlemen Allete had brought.

She bowed down gently. "Same here." Alaina said with a meek politness. "How did you manage to come across my dear friend Allete?"

[<Lilith.:.Winters>]

Armand glanced at Allete for a moment before answering. She blinked and turned her head away to hide her quarreled gaze.

"I suppose it's not an everyday sight for a young gypsy girl to wander deep into the heart of the city, faintly away from the square..." Armand gave a small smile. "I greatly admire the arts. Having a very example of art in a human form, especially so lovely, getting hurt simply wouldn't do. There has been more criminal activities lately, after all."

Allete breathlessly turned back to him, confused. She hadn't a clue what to do with his compliments.

[angelgirl1419]

Alaina smiled sweetly as she nudged Allete in the side. "Well, I suppose I am in your debt for helping her, were like sisters." She said with fondness.

"You know, Monsiuer Coeur, I am glade that they others of the town are enjoying them so."

~~~~

Damien glanced up at the sun as he placed his hat snuggly on his head. He glanced around town at various shops, and realized how much he had missed comming into town.

After long months of mourning for his wife, Damien realized he really needed to get out...He enjoyed the air so much and the noisy chattering. After all, he was a Parisean at heart.

Damien was deep in thought when his gaze was averted towards two lovely woman standing in the square. They were gypsies...that much he knew. But he had no quarrel with them. He enjoyed their festive dancing and music...but was most peculiar was that a very aristocratic man was standing talking to these two Gypsy girls. As much as he tried not to seem interested, it didn't work. Slowly but surely, he neared the square, glancing at various objects in shops along the way.

Allete gave a muted stare at Alaina before she could grin. She couldn't help it.

"Think nothing of the debt, Madmoiselle. It was simply something I had to do." Armand smiled softely. "I am also equally as content to see others enjoying them."

[angelgirl1419]

Alaina raised her eyebrows at Allete, and smiled lightly. "Well, thank you again." She said with a small bow. "Yes, people have become suprisingly more open these days.

~~~~

As Damien drew closer to the square, he could now see that the aristocratic man was none other than his good friend Armand...he took this as the perfect oppertunity to get himself closer to the lovely Gypsy girl that caught his attention.

"Armand!" Damien said with a large grin. "What on earth are you doing here?"

[<Lilith.:.Winters>]

Alaina raised her eyebrows at Allete, and smiled lightly. "Well, thank you again." She said with a small bow. "Yes, people have become suprisingly more open these days.

"Armand!" Damien said with a large grin. "What on earth are you doing here?"

{ Wooo! I'm back! ^^ }

"Yes indeed," He smiled at Alaina's politeness. These gypsy's were certainly different. "And so, where exactly do--"

"Armand! What on earth are you doing here?"

He chuckled. He certainly recognized his voice anywhere. "Damien!" Armand excused himself for a moment. "I didn't expect to see you around here! I was just taking a look at the new sections of the city."

Allete looked at Alaina teasingly once Armand was momentarily away from them. "I noticed the way he gazed at you..." She arched her eyebrows suggestively, and laughed softely. "It seems these days, noblemen are strolling by everywhere."

[angelgirl1419]

Damien eyed Allete closely before slapping Armand on the back. "Well, as was I." He grinned, moving a piece of his fiery red hair from his blue eyes.

Alaina latched onto Allete's wrist as she smiled. "And you just wondered into his carriage...all by your naive little self?" She asked playfully, tying her long ebony hair with a piece of thread.

[<Lilith.:.Winters>]

{ *Has an old English lady's accent* Did you post the picture yet, dear? xDD }

"Well, he offered a ride. You know we are taught to see the intents in a person's eyes..." Allete smiled as she helped Alaina with her hair. "After all, I can defend myself."

Armand arched an eyebrow when he noticed the direction of Damien's eyes. "...Interesting," He murmured, a small smile forming on his lips. "Would you care for me to introduce you to those lovely gypsy's?"

[angelgirl1419]

Alaina pursed her lips. "Well, seems as though that gentlemen is quite smitten with you..." She stated, jerking her head in Damien's direction. "...Or he's never seen the likes of a gypsy before, which I doubt." She couldn't hold back a lovely smirk.

Damien grinned beamishly. "Well, since their your aquantinces. I would love to meet them." He said, to cover up his eagerness. After all...Nicolette died over a year ago...

[<Lilith.:.Winters>]

"...Excuse me? Surely you jest..." Reluctantly, upon seeing Alaina's confident smirk, Allete turned her head and settled her striking emerald eyes at the new man, a nobleman for sure, as he stared at her oddly.

"...This will certainly prove to be...different..." She finally replied, breathlessly upon seeing the nobleman's scorching sapphire gaze...

Armand approached Allete and Alaina with ease. "Here, madmoiselles, is my dear friend Damien," Armand gestured to Alaina. "This is Alaina, a wonderful dancer might I add," He chuckled, eyeing her for a long moment.

"...And this is Allete," Armand gave a small gesture to Allete, noticing her gaze solely focused on Damien. "...I dare say she certainly has a great witty charm." Armand glanced back to Damien. He couldn't quite recognize that gaze...

'Definitely interesting...'

[angelgirl1419]

Alaina cupped her hands together behind her back, and smiled brightly at Allete with an, I told you so, look. "Why, it is a pleasure to meet you, Monsiuer Damien."

Damien bowed lighly to Alaina, gently shaking her hand. "You too, my friend." He grinned, and turned to Allete with a handsome look gracing his features.

"Such a lovely name-Allete." He said in a soft tone, letting her name roll of his tongue.

[<Lilith.:.Winters>]

{ Darling! Put Bastilo's picture in Damien's profile... *Melts* I need to see it again...and I'm to lazy to check Bloody Hymn right now...xD }

Armand handsomely grinned at Alaina with an 'I knew it as well' gaze as he arched an amused eyebrow.

Allete gave a momentary glare at both Armand and Alaina, catching their amusement.

She turned back to Damien, her heart starting pace faster and faster...
"...Thank you, Monsieur Damien..." Allete murmured blinking back her suprise. Since when had she been so...so...meek?

She fought the urge to groan.

[angelgirl1419]

((Haha, XD. Sorry deary! I'll post it right now.))

Alaina took to stand to Armand's side, watching Damien and Allete from a far, seeing how he looked at her...and how he knew nothing of her!

Damien picked her delicate hand up in his, running his lips over her tanned knuckles. "Your very welcome." He replied, glancing back up to her. There was something about this girl...she was so captivating.

[<Lilith.:.Winters>]

"And so, what do you think of this, Mademoiselle? It seems that my dearest friend is quite taken with your dearest friend." Armand glanced quizzically at her, biting back a small grin.

Allete lightly cleared her throat, changing the subject for her sake; her cheeks were probably already flushed. "...So, tell me Monsieur...what brings you around to the square? I've noticed an increase in number of noblemen and ladies alike around here..." Skillfully glancing in his eyes with her former bold demeanor taking place as she boldly gazed at him with her striking pale green eyes.

[angelgirl1419]

Alaina watched the pair with an amused expression. "I'm thinking how ironic it is, Monsieur Coeur. Its not everyday that one is quite as taken with my dear friend as this nobleman is." She stated, arching an eyebrow.

Damien smiled brightly, leisurely tucking his hands into his pockets. "I thought i'd get out of the house for a few days, Madame.'' He told her. "I've been stuck in my house for what seems like centuries."

[<Lilith.:.Winters>]

"Oh? Is that truly so?" Armand gave a small grin as he glanced at her with interest. "I find that hard to believe mademoiselle--she is a very beautiful young woman, as you are."

He gave a light chuckle.

Amused, Allete smiled softly. "Well then, I am quite surprised that you were finally able to head out, monsieur. Welcome to the square, home of the entertainment in Paris--next in place to the Opera House of course."

[angelgirl1419]

Alaina arched an eyebrow quizically, turning to Armand. "Well sir, I should say they arn't so bold, when they are taken." She said with a light smile. "Your friend seems to have no shame--And neither do we gypsies."

"Ah yes!" Damien said as he glanced up to the lovely building. "You've been to the opera before?" He asked, but his mind was thinking of other matters...such as how her eyes glittered when the sun hit them, and how her hair blew lightly with a gust of wind.

[<Lilith.:.Winters>]

Alaina arched an eyebrow quizically, turning to Armand. "Well sir, I should say they arn't so bold, when they are taken." She said with a light smile. "Your friend seems to have no shame--And neither do we gypsies."

"Ah yes!" Damien said as he glanced up to the lovely building. "You've been to the opera before?" He asked, but his mind was thinking of other matters...such as how her eyes glittered when the sun hit them, and how her hair blew lightly with a gust of wind.

"Then it is quite settled-- my bold friend is, perhaps, a lovely match to your dearest Allette." Armand chuckled softly.

"I don't suppose you have any objections, Mademoiselle?"


"...Sadly, no." Allette, glanced away, suppressing a feeling of remorse as it bubbled up into her stomach.

"Sadly, gypsy's cannot waste any amount of gold so excessively," She gave a weak grin. "We have to save enough for the others, you know..."

[angelgirl1419]

Alaina arched an ebony eyebrow as she studied Armand.

"He seems worthy enough of her...I find a gentlemen in love with a gypsy quite romantic, do you not?" It seemed as if her lips turned themselves into a lovely little simper, which she could not hold back.

~*~

Damien furrowed his eyebrows in frustration at his own ignorance. How could he ask such a thing? Now he obviously offended her...he damned himself mentally.

"Forgive me, Madamoiselle." He said with an apologetic bow. "You must company me to the Opera the next time they have an event."

[<Lilith.:.Winters>]

"A bit cliché, perhaps..." Armand returned a smile, although it was a bit teasing. "But, I find it to be terribly romantic as well."

<♥.♪.♥>

"...Perhaps one day, misseur," Allete smiled softly, knowing she couldn't ever go there. She knew a gypsy, such as herself, would never belong there.

"For now, you should enjoy the shops around the square. It's always over-brimming with jovial tourists and curious onlookers..."

[angelgirl1419]

Alaina laughed lightly, smiling wide as she did so.

"Is the monsieur a romantic?"

~~~

Damien waved his hand nonchalantly, and shook his head. "No, Ma Cherie. I've been to those shops all morning, my main interest this bright afternoon is to become acquainted with you further."

[<Lilith.:.Winters>]

Armand felt a peculiar ease, speaking to her. It was a wonderful sign, he thought, knowing that awkward conversations were the most dreadful.

"Well, you may call it that I suppose." He stood, easily smiling back.

<♪>

"Ah," Allete fought the urge to grin at his boldness. Such things were traits, all of which she loved to see more and more of, rather than the traditional 'gentlemanly' façade. "Well, your company is rather enjoyable as well!"

She laughed lightly, feeling her self-consciousness slip away...

[angelgirl1419]

Alaina threw back her head, and let out a melodic laugh. Moving a piece of ebony colored hair away from her eyes, she gazed at him softly.

"That makes two of us, Monsieur."

~~~

Damien felt a very victorious smile emerge. "I would have hopped but to hear nothing better, milady." And he meant this just as surely as he had said it. "Your company is the best I've found in quite a time."

[<Lilith.:.Winters>]

With a smile tugging at his lips, Armand felt the time pass by...

...Much too quicky, actually. He almost groaned when he saw the sky nearing a very late afternoon, and he had to force himself to check his golden pocket watch from the inside of his suit.

The sun would be setting soon.

"My, my," Armand gave a warm smile, as he gently put the small pocket watch back inside. "It seems that with you, time seems to glide by, Mademoiselle. What is your secret?"

<*.☼.*>

"You have a way with words, I must admit." Allete arched an eyebrow as a teasing smiled curved her lips. "That is quite a compliment to give to a simple gypsy. Surely you exagerrate a bit...?"

Her smile widened, as her intelligent green eyes studied him effortlessly. He was...quite the charmer. It was another bold and playful trait she admired.

[angelgirl1419]

Alaina beamed a most becoming smile, and pursued her lips.

"Why, Monsieur, twas' a Gypsy's charm." She laughed merrily

~~~

"I am not one for exaggeration, my very dear Allete." Damien said with a truthful look. "I am rather...straight forward as, I'm sure you've gathered."

He took this time, to grasp her hand lightly in his, and brush his lips over her knuckles. "And you, ma Cherie are anything but simple.

((Gah! I love Damien! XD))

[<Lilith.:.Winters>]

Alaina beamed a most becoming smile, and pursued her lips.

"Why, Monsieur, twas' a Gypsy's charm." She laughed merrily

~~~

"I am not one for exaggeration, my very dear Allete." Damien said with a truthful look. "I am rather...straight forward as, I'm sure you've gathered."

He took this time, to grasp her hand lightly in his, and brush his lips over her knuckles. "And you, ma Cherie are anything but simple.

((Gah! I love Damien! XD))

"Mm," Armand to fight from drawing his eyes on her for more than a minute to gape. Beautiful. Beyond words.

"Yes...and what a charm it is..."

<.♪.>

{ I do too!!! ♥ xDD }

"...My, my..." Allete had attempted sarcasm, but instead felt her words become a breathless flutter of a tune. She blinked away, hoping against all hope that her cheeks did not bloom to a rose-color.

"Well, I can assure you, your theory can be proved otherwise. Just a thought." She smiled, not fully recovered from a moment's heartbeat that seemed to falter.

[angelgirl1419]

Alaina smiled happily, threading a piece of ebony hair behind her ear.

"Are you admitting that you have been bewitched with such charm, monsieur?"

~*~

Damien, who still had Allete's warm hand grasped in his, gave her a look of disbelief.

"I highly doubt that, ma petite."
