A/N: this actually isn't what Id intended to upload. The chapter I was refering to in the previous A/N note is still sitting on my computer =_=. Hit a snag halfway through and didn't know quite how to word the situation. It will (hopefully) be posted this weekend so stay tuned.
*hands out chocolates and flowers to Qwi-xux anf Poisonous Disaster* My deepest thanks to you guys for all your reviews thus far. I always love hearing feedback from the both of you; it never fails to brighten up my day. :D
Twinkle little stars
It was another quiet night on the shores of Phon Coast. Dusk had fallen hours ago and the tiny slivered moon glistened brightly over the calm waters. A content Vaan lay gazing at the night sky, secretely pleased with himself for stalling their journey one more night. Sights like this were hard to come by, especially in the crowded city of Rabanastre, and should be treasured. Overhead, a plethora of stars twinkled and he watched them lazily from his position on the soft sands. There were so many. It was as if someone had poured out all contents of a giant jewlery box and flung out each individual piece into the heavens, he mused. His fingers twitched reflexively -he wanted to steal all the stars from the skies then string them into a necklace.
"Pisces." Penelo shifted comfortably where her head was pillowed upon his chest so she could point to a cluster of winking lights. Vaan's breathing, coupled with his steady heartbeat, was slowly lulling her to sleep. He was so deliciously warm and she cuddled closer into the crook of his shoulder, sighing happily when the boy tightened his hold protectively around her waist. Chuckling, Vaan's eyes softened as glanced down at her before lifting his gaze towards the indicated spot.
"Yeah."
