Revelry's End

Rougarou’s eyes shot open. He had thought it was a dream, but there was no mistaking the growing cacophony that echoed down the halls of the resort. He threw a pillow over his ears, but even then the strumming of a banjo mixed with the shrill of a harmonica and whining of an accordion leaked through. In the extended cafe off of the balcony of the Bamboo Beach Resort, Benni and a few of his friends played near the concessions as tourists listened while enjoying tropical drinks. Benni’s eyes swept the crowd, resting on Harmony who was sitting at one of the tables up front. “Now’s the time,” thought Benni. With the long-lost sheet music propped up in front of him, he began to sing.
There’s a song in my head; I just gotta sing. Like a luvsquito, my heart has wings. It’s all for you, what I do in the bayou, My dearest---
Without warning, Benni’s solo was interrupted by a loud roar as Rougarou burst in. “ENOUGH!” With a mighty sweep of his massive paws. Rougarou sent tables flying, overturned potted palms, and people panicking. In under a minute, the entire room was cleared out. All Benni could do was gape as Rougarou panted a few times, then leaped off the balcony himself, heading back to the peace and quiet of the swamp.
“Did he...have pillows stuffed in his ears?” wondered Harmony as she righted a chair.
Benni’s shoulders slumped, dejected. His brilliant confession had been cut off at it’s climax. “Harmony...I’m...I’m so sorry.”
“Sorry? Don’t apologize! I had a great time,” Harmony answered with a smile. “I really liked the music, and the resort was just the vacation I needed. I look forward to next year.”
“Right...right. Next year,” Benni forced himself to mirror her smile. Next time...next time he’d be able to tell her...
