Cupid and Psyche

"A Souen woman is always victorious."
Her grandmother sits on her chair of hazy memories and little Ruka sits on her lap and listens to every word and nods.
She opens her tired brown eyes (she didn't have any sleep) and follows the swinging chandelier from side to side and laughs when her mind remembers his hopeful face in the music room after she kissed him.
Foolish Hanabusa.
He should know by now that she would always win in the end.
Of course, it's understandable that he thought he had a chance to come out on top, after all he is desired by every woman who lays eyes upon him. (but not by her she only has eyes for their king)
His beautiful angelic face reminds her of that little grinning brat who likes to play with dangerous arrows.
And so does his behaviour.
He dances around feelings and tramples on hearts and leaves a bloody trail behind his every step and while doing it he smiles without a care. (because he doesn't care)
One could say that she is a lot like him, breaking and shattering men's dreams. But she does it without knowing (most of the time) while he has full knowledge of his actions' consequences.
She turns to the blond next to her on the bed (his clothes were tossed carelessly on the floor, next to hers) and gently strokes his platinum hair, careful not to wake him up. (the white bishop has fallen)
Does his hair feel the same as this?
The corners of her lips turn slightly upwards. Maybe Aidou is right and she is obsessed with Kaname, but she doesn't mind and kisses the sleeping blond again. After all, his lips are the closest she'll ever be to Kaname's lips.
He wakes up and smiles that beautifully naïvesmile of his and for a moment she despises what she's done (but only for a short moment) and thinks that maybe, just maybe, she could fall in love with him and forget Kaname. (but she can't not for him)
He hugs her and whispers something (a sweet poem that means nothing to her) but she doesn't listen and her eyes follow the oscilating pendulum and her ears listen only to the ticking clock and she smirks.
In less than five minutes sweet victory will be hers and the golden net will fall on them. (she put it there herself)
The door opens and Hephaestus comes home to find his wife with the god of war. Only this Hephaestus isn't crippled and Aphrodite isn't his wife and Ares is actually a pacifist.
A string of curses leaves his lips. (bitch slut whore how could you I think I l...)
A harlot's crimson smile is plastered on her face (you remind me of Cleopatra) and she entwines her arms provocatively around Asatou's grandson but her glinting eyes never leave his.
I win.
(the ice finally breaks)
He leaves without a word (why so angry after all you challenged her) and her grandmother smiles down at her little girl with pride.
