When he had heard of others saying "two become one," it had always been in a most carnal vein. He almost felt as if he had become one with this girl without even knowing her name, let alone taking her to his bedchamber. Though he had never experienced such intercourse, he could not imagine that such an act could compare to the sublime wonder of this shared moment between fated lovers. Destiny was the only thing that could have arranged this meeting. The sounds of the night mingled with the distant sounds of the party, both seeming to be mere accents to the blossoming love felt in his chest.<br/><br/>Her lips opened to his, slowly, but invitingly. After a brief hesitation, the invitation was taken, and his tongue gently sought out the girl's own inside of the recesses of her own mouth. Such an intrusion would have been nigh unthinkable under normal circumstances, but something about her made him yearn for more. His fingers clenched briefly as he made the daring move, taking up a handful of her skirts and a gentle grazing of nails against the back of her neck as he partook in pleasure he'd never experienced.<br/><br/>He didn't notice the party's noises were dying down, inside, as the time of unmasking was drawing near.
