Don't Rain on my Parade {FayexAlice}

[Faye]

Alice was acting so strange. It was frightening to think of the things Alice could do to her if she made the wrong step or a sudden movement of some kind but something told her that Alice wouldn't harm her at all. She remained beside her friend, reaching out to take her hand in her own, squeezing it gently.

"Why do I remind you of... Aurore?" Faye was curious, so curious she stared intently at Alice, awaiting an answer.

[Alice Tudor]

Alice's hand was still, and did not move when Faye had squeezed her hand. Slowly, though, Alice had squeezed Faye's hand back after a moment of silence. Slowly looking to Faye out of the corner of her eyes, a small smile on her lips. "You both.. have the same eyes. Those beautiful, bright blue eyes... so full of hope and kindness... so cheerful... she was my best friend."

Tears had started to fill Alice's eyes once more, her slowly lifting her hand that wasn't being held by Faye to wipe her eyes. She had tried to laugh, trying to play it off that she was laughing, but she was ...really starting to cry. "S-sorry.. now I'm..starting to..cry like a child.. "

[Faye]

Faye could see now, how Alice could see such a resemblance between herself and her old friend. A frown pierced the girl's lips, she felt her own eyes well up with tears as she saw Alice's tears glisten in the sun as they ran down her cheeks.

"Alice.. it's okay to cry, sometimes it's good to get it all out, it's never good to keep things bottled up inside," Letting go of her hand for a moment to rub her back, Faye flashed her a warm, sweet smile to try and cheer Alice up. "Is there anything that I can do to try cheer you up?" She asked, curious.

... That was almost exactly what Aureline had told her, too. She let out a soft laugh, wiping her tears from her eyes once more. No matter how many times she wiped her eyes, tears kept reappearing. She hadn't cried in centuries. Having bottled up all of that anger and emotion for that long... was finally starting to let itself go. The last time she cried liked this was when her parents died. Non stop tears ... but this time, she wasn't following up that crying with murdering.

This pain wasn't bad. It was... actually... pleasant. Like she was being cleansed. Smiling a bit more when Faye flashed her smile, Alice gripped Faye's hand firmly, but gently. Her tears were slowly starting to stop now, her starting to feel a somewhat... warm and fuzzy feeling within her stomach. It almost made her sick to her stomach thinking of what this feeling might be...and how corny it kind of felt. Warm and fuzzy, really? "Never stop being you. That will help cheer me up."
