Nita was staring down at her feet, thinking of Kit and how he had grown up in the last 4 short years. He was so tall and handsome.

She had been sitting in her favorite place to think: the moon, for the past 20 minuets. Nita was now looking down toward the Earth when she heard a small pop: it was Kit. She gave a mental gasp but recovered quickly with. "Kit! What are you doing here? I thought you were going to go for a walk with Ponch."

Kit just smiled at her. He had planned to go for a walk but couldn't keep his mind off Nita and the way she had matured over their 4 years of wizardly partnership. She had grown into all of her gorgeous features. He didn't know how to describe her. The only words that came to mind were, "She's hot!!".

"Well, I was going to, but I needed to think for a while before. So I decided to come up here. But since you were here first I guess I will just leave."

"No, no, you don't have to. I mean unless you really want to."

"We could just think together. But I am warning you.these thoughts," he pointed to his head, "are not for you to 'accidentally' over hear. He smiled at her and Nita blushed slightly.

They had been sitting there for 10 minuets. All of the sudden, though, Nita felt a strong hand move over to rest on top of hers. She wanted to slug Kit in the jaw, but fought the urge to because it felt..right. Besides, had had this dream so many times before and wanted to know how this almost-like-a-dream experience would end.





Kit had been sitting next to Nita for so long, wanting desperately to just touch her in any way, that wouldn't freak her out. So he decided to slide his hand on to hers in the most natural way possible. After a few minuets he now knew she wasn't going to slug him. He knew the only thing left was to tell her how he felt..





Nita just sat there, trying to fight that twinge in her mind that meant Kit wanted to tell her something. She waited a few minuets for him to gather up some courage, for she knew it must be something big for him not to tell her right off the bat. Finally she said, "Kit, is there something you want to tell me 'cause.well..I kind of got that feeling.." She shut her mouth, knowing that she must be sounding completely stupid.

There was a long uncomfortable pause Kit said, "No..I mean maybe.no .YES!!"Kit looked down at his feet again.

Then he looked at her and said, "Nita, I know we have been together for a while and over the years I have.ah, grown attached to you. I mean not in the normal friendly way but in the.umm. I got to go." He almost yelled out as he took out his transit and there was a small pop of displaced air and he was gone.

Kita thought to herself, "What in the world was he trying to tell me?!"
