Summary: Eriol watches Kaho dance ballet. He's never seen a prettier sight. Drabble.

He didn't know she was a ballerina until he found the shoes buried in a box in her closet. They were pale pink and tucked away beside a matching leotard.

"Long ago," she said, blushing, but he wouldn't leave her alone until she danced for him.

When she finished and stood still, face flushed and body glowing, he gazed in awe. The shoes hadn't fit, or the leotard, relics of her school days, but she was gorgeous all the same.

"I'd like my daughter to take ballet," she said, trying to slow her breathing to normal, and he nodded firmly.
