Elie and Haru stopped outside the cave entrance and gaze into the darkness for a brief moment, they soon set up their campsite and Plue made a fire. outside a roar of thunder crackled, making Elie grip plue tighter and grab Haru's hand, but then lightning crashed and she burried her head in his jacket
"Hey, only a bit of bad weather!" he laughed, "Let's get our rain-clothes on!"
Haru just shoved on a leather jacket (hooded) and held a closed umbrella, Elie war a yellow raincoat and wellies but Plue wore her hat, so it drooped cutely over his nose.
"Aww!" Elie smiled at him and placed it tilted on his head, so he could see where he was going, he staggered round with the flames amber glow and fell with his nose sticking on the muddy ground, Haru burst out laughing.
"Shiba warned me you were a klutz, Plue, but more clumsy than Elie?"
"What's that supposed to mean!" cried Elie, elbowing him.
"Just don't use your tonfa blasters here, we need it as shelter for the night, we shall start our quest tomorrow."
"Haru, you haven't told me what the quest is!" Elie looked hurt.
"Well, it will help you, know that much."
they went to set their sleeping bags on the ground but after the others fell asleep Haru got up, and knelt beside the sleeping Elie, he looked at her face in the moonlight's magic.
"Oh Elie," he whispered, hoping she couldn't hear. "I love you." he kissed her lips slowly and softly, but walked away too quickly to see those lips curl into a smile and mouth i love you back in her dreams.
