Snowflakes

By: M14Mouse

Summary: Maya has never seen snow before. It was beautiful. It made her miss home.

Disclaimer: Don't own them.

What is this?

Maya looked up at the sky in wonder. She didn't dare step out of the hanger doors but she couldn't help but stare.

What is this strange planet with these strange white things falling from the sky? Was it dangerous? No…no…The others didn't seem to think so. They wouldn't come to this planet if it was dangerous.

But what are these white pieces falling from the sky? She reached out her hand to catch them as they fell. She tugged her hand back to her and stared at these things.

They looked like little crystals. She rubbed them into her skin and frowned.

There were cold little crystals.

She looked up at the sky again in awe.

How was this possible?

"It is pretty, isn't it?" Damon said from behind her.

"It's beautiful…what is it?"

"It's snow. Never seen snow, huh?"

"Snow…? This is called snow," She said in wonder.

"Yup. This second time that I have seen it. Still as cold as I remember it"

She turned her head and stared at him.

"Really?"

"Yup…I was visiting my aunt and uncle in Michigan. It was so cold, girl. Just thinking about gives me the chills. My sisters and I stared out the windows for hours watching it snow. After it stopped, my aunt and uncle wrapped us in so many clothes that we looked like marshmallows. It was hilarious. Best part was the hot chocolate after we played in the snow. I wished that I could show you some pictures. You would laugh but…." Damon said with a shrug.

He didn't need to finish the sentence. She already knew the answer.

He didn't have any photos.

She could only imagine.

"My grandfather would be amazed. I don't know if he ever saw snow. I don't even know if snow even existed on my planet"

"Maybe, we should take a picture and show him when we fixed your planet."

She smiled at him.

"Really? You would do that?"

"Sure. We will take loads of pictures and have snowball fights, make snowmen and snow angels."

All of those things sounded like so much fun. She couldn't wait to get everyone outside but….

"What are snow angels?" She asked.

Damon laughed.

"You see. First off, we need the right clothes because you can't go running around in that."

She made a face.

"What is wrong with what I wearing?"

"Nothing is wrong what you are wearing, girl. I don't think the others would be happy if you frozen to death. It is nice and warm right here. Out there…not so much."

"It is really that cold?" She asked.

"It is really that cold," He said with a nod.

"So…new clothes and we get the others. Because we can't do anything without them."

"Of course not. We can't have a good snowball fight without them," Damon said.

She nodded her head and grinned.

"Damon?"

"Yes?"

"After that…I would like to try some of your hot chocolate."

"Of course…that would be the best part."
