This one's very description-heavy. I love description...

9: Sunset

There was just something about the view from outside the ranch that was absolutely stunning.

Especially at sunset, when the reds and oranges would creep across the sky, covering the world in a blanket of fiery clouds. The very edges of the blanket unravelled and mingled with the darkening natural blue of the sky, creating a majestic purple. Eventually the dark blue would push away the royal hues of orange and night would arrive. The sun, always the gargantuan ball of fire, would be pushed over the edge of the trees, its daily grand finale through until its striking entrance the next morning.

Forcystus loved watching the sunset.

It pushed the busyness of the day into the darkness of the night, instilling a quiet over the world and bringing a hush that would hide any secret. The sunset brought a promise of security that the day couldn't hold, warming the heart of any after a long day of work and giving the allowance of rest at last.

Forcystus loved watching the sunset even more when he was with Yuan.

They would stand there together, neither saying a word to ruin nature's magnificent display of power. The safety, the promises the darkening sky held assured the two – of what, neither was sure. One thing was true – that the sunset made them feel eased, and though the secrets kept between them were not cause for the unrest that the day gave them. The sun of the day gave the world energy, life: the sunset relaxed them both, reassured them. He would look over to the seraph, to see the peaceful smile on the other's face, free of the day's stresses.

But what Forcystus loved the most about watching the sunset was seeing it reflected in Yuan's eyes.

Alright, a notice: My imagination is running dry. So, if any of you have any ideas whatsoever, please please please share them. I've been managing to scrape by for the last few days, but who knows how long I can keep it up. I want to keep updating every day (otherwise I'll get too lazy and never update), so please share any ideas you have in a review!

That being said, please leave a review with any comments or suggestions (or, now, ideas)!
