Beauty and the Beast will never get on.
Beast licks his hands, stands on the toilet and runs through the woods.
Beauty is the kind of girl who knows how to behave; Be polite, always smile, and never let anyone know what you're thinking.
No. Beauty and the beast will never get on.
So why, when she sees him run like that, or when he hangs from the rafters, when they sit at night just watching the stars, why does she feel like that? Why does her heart start racing, thumping on the walls inside, beating behind her eyes? And is that...is that him looking at her?
A story about two people trapped together, and finding more freedom than they've ever known.
