... ★ ...
#01 - Motion
It's all a blur, now, how they went from having an innocent conversation about the dead in Rosemariné's carriage to lying entwined in the bed of a hotel meant for rendezvous, but he decides not to think about it too much and enjoy the feeling of Jules' hand in his.
#02 - Cool
The heat is disgusting when Jules feels a cool breeze hit his face; Rosemariné looks away and sets down the papers as soon as he looks up and tells him that it's too early in the day to overheat.
#03 - Young
"We've known each other since we were children," Rosemariné has to explain to some gossiping student every few months, in the same breath as "now, hold out your hands."
#04 - Last
Both of them had their virginities stolen from them by a member of that family, Rosemariné realizes, his face buried in Jules' hair at some ungodly hour, but he'd try his damndest to make sure that they were each other's last.
#05 - Wrong
Rosemariné almost cries as he pushes Jules away, sure that his protests about their duties as the oldest sons and the bible and people's gossiping lips are coming out as gibberish and praying that Jules knows him well enough not to listen.
#06 - Gentle
He's always woken up before Jules, but lately Rosemariné has been waking up to the feeling of Jules' arms around his shoulders, and he knows that if it was anyone's touch but Jules' he would want to die right there.
#07 - One
Rosemariné was a strong, proud man who had goals, not dreams or wishes... excepting one that he'd never admit, even to himself: he just wanted Jules to love him.
#08 - Thousand
He would do nearly anything for Rosemariné, but a thousand times more for Mother.
#09 - King
He's called "le prince blanc", but only Jules has seen firsthand what keeps Rosemariné from being the king.
#11 - Blur
He cried for the first time in years the night that he told Jules -- really told him, after years of being afraid to mention it -- how much he still hurt inside, and even through the tears he could see his friend starting to sob as well.
#12 - Wait
"You're had too much to drink," Jules murmurs, tasting Rosemariné's breath when he suddenly kisses him, "wait until tomorrow, all right? I promise, I'll let you do anything you want once you're sober."
#13 - Change
Jules sometimes wondered he was the opposite of the boy he was a decade earlier: instead of being open about his feelings, he hid them; instead of believing in miracles he forced them to happen; instead of despising Rosemariné... well, perhaps not the complete opposite.
#14 - Command
Everybody at Lacombrade knew that Arion Rosemairné never got drunk; what they didn't know was that it was only because of the years that Jules had spent learning exactly when to tell him when enough was enough.
#15 - Hold
He had the hands of a scholar, callused only from holding a pen and soft from expensive lotions, and it was almost depressing to Rosemariné that Jules didn't often touch him unless he was touching him.
#16 - Need
One autumn day, Jules realized that he didn't know how to live without Rosemariné; just a month later, he knew that he had lost him.
#17 - Vision
It's always dark when they make love, because no matter how many times Jules tells Rosemariné that he's beautiful and he is perfectly all right with the fact that Rosemariné's body lacks a woman's curves and softness, Rosemariné refuses to believe him.
#18 - Attention
Rosemariné probably thinks that Jules doesn't care about anything but his book as he sits in a corner of Rosemariné's office, but when Rosemariné isn't watching he glances up to watch the way that he makes even paperwork look lovely.
#19 - Soul
Jules already has all of his heart and soul, and yet Rosemariné is afraid to ever give him his body; it's the only thing that he has yet to break, and if he gives himself over to Jules then there will be nothing left that's his.
#20 - Picture
One night he can't sleep, can't think about anything but the fact that he doesn't have a single photograph of Jules and needs to change that right now.
#21 - Fool
Jules wonders sometimes if things would be different if he were a woman, could be courted by and married to him and bear his children, but he quickly tells himself that it's an absurd thought.
#22 - Mad
No matter what he says, Rosemariné is no longer angry about the pain that he's been through or the victorious smirks that Jules thinks he doesn't see; the only thing about Jules that he hates is the way that he can't change the way he feels about him despite the wounds.
#23 - Child
"May the dove of happiness never leave your side," Rosemariné tells Jules; it's an old saying from when they were children, but this time Jules pulls him closer and gives him a kiss that's anything but childish.
#24 - Now
Jules hates to do anything without careful planning, but when Rosemariné tugs on his shirt one day and throws his arms around him, he decides that logic can wait until tomorrow.
#25 - Shadow
Even if Rosemariné doesn't realize it, Jules is always keeping track of him; while he's aware that it's a bit ominous, it's certainly better than something horrible happening behind his back.
#26 - Goodbye
It's the hardest thing that he's ever done in the whole eighteen years of his life, but when Rosemariné sees Jules turn to walk away for the last time, it feels as if a weight has been lifted from his chest.
#27 - Hide
For Rosemariné, there has never been a second's doubt that he's in love with Jules, but every second that he pretends that he's unsure or doesn't realize it is another second that he can't be rejected.
#28 - Fortune
This is all that I need, Jules reminds himself as he passes Rosemariné on the streets once again, his wife by his side.
#29 - Safe
He dreams of Jules, beside him and on top of him and violating him, yet somehow it's all right; he's in Jules' bed and covered in Jules' sweat and it's Jules' cock moving inside of him after all, and the thought of Jules completely overwhelming him and being all around him is somehow comforting.
#30 - Ghost
Even after Auguste Beau is long dead, Rosemariné's sleep is sometimes interrupted by memories of fear and pain and hopelessness that only go away when he remembers that Jules is lying next to him.
#31 - Book
"Come look at this," Jules said, waving Rosemariné over to see a page in whatever novel he was reading, and when Rosemariné looked at him, confused at why he should be interested in the author's name, he was surprised with a soft kiss.
#32 - Eye
Somehow it's never occurred to Jules to be afraid of him the way everyone else is; overwhelmed, yes, and in awe of, but the sheer determination always in Rosemariné's eyes is nothing short of beautiful.
#33 - Never
Jules will never touch him the way he wants to, never hold him through the night, never say that he loves him, Rosemariné realizes in a flood of emotion when he sees him whispering in the ear of a boy that Rosemariné's never met.
#34 - Sing
"Would you like it if I kissed you?" Jules asks, and when he gets a nod in response and does, Rosemariné swears that there are flowers blooming and birds singing in the background.
#35 - Sudden
The first time Rosemariné wakes up in bed next to Jules, he practically screams and pushes Jules off; then he blinks and remembers and mutters not to surprise him like that.
#36 - Stop
What Rosemariné loves the most about Jules is that when Jules touches him in some way that feels uncomfortable and Rosemariné, suddenly panics and yells at him to stop, Jules always listens.
#37 - Time
They're truly adults now, with wives and children that have been forgotten tonight as they hold each other by the fireplace and pretend that it hadn't taken so long for them to learn what they really wanted.
#38 - Wash
Every night after making love, Rosemariné insists on bathing; every night, as he turns to leave the bedroom, Jules calls for him to stop and offers to wash his back; some nights, Rosemariné is able to resist.
#39 - Torn
Falling in love with Rosemariné will make Gilbert lose all faith in him; taking Gilbert in will cause Rosemariné to despise him; but as it is, all three of them are slowly breaking.
#40 - History
The only time that Rosemariné has yelled at Jules in public since they entered Laconblade was when Jules felt the need to inform him that many of ancient Greek men had male lovers.
#41 - Power
Jules isn't afraid when Rosemariné ties his hands to the foot of the bed and blindfolds him and covers him with bruises and kisses, because he knows that no matter how much his lover is consumed by power, he has no desire to truly hurt Jules.
#42 - Bother
"Do you have nothing better to fill your time with?" Rosemariné asks when Jules joins him between classes once again, hoping that the answer is no.
#43 - God
Jules would never imagine disrespecting his bible, although he has briefly considered whether ripping out the story of Sodom and Gomorra counted as disrespect.
#44 - Wall
Rosemariné adored Jules with all of his heart; Jules was barely able to contain the intense something or other that Rosemariné made him feel... and yet it was as if there was something blocking them from taking that last step.
#45 - Naked
For some reason, Rosemariné can't take his eyes off of Jules' body as he slowly steps out of his pants; "you're so handsome," he whispers, blushing, when he manages to tear his gaze away.
#48 - Precious
This happens every year, he thinks, sighing and handing a pile of cards from admirers to Luce to use as fuel for the fire, keeping one particularly lacy one with familiar handwriting hidden under homework.
#49 - Hunger
At five years old, Rosemariné wanted him as someone to boss around; by ten, he had become a playmate; but by the time they were 17, Rosemariné realized that he simply wanted Jules.
#50 - Believe
No matter what he does, the other will believe that he's still a good person at heart.
