New chapter (yay!) but its another short one. The next chapter is not quite completed yet but it is a fairly long one, so hopefully I won't keep you waiting too long. Angelic Ninja.


Did you see the wonder

Like a crash of thunder

Its the spell we're under

Alex Lloyd – The Wonder

She held up her hands in the shimmering light and the dust settled on her palms. Bringing them together she blew the dust back into the atmosphere, watching as they joined the other particles in the air, dancing, reflecting light. She felt his eyes on her as she spun, arms open wide. He had explained it to her, but she hadn't listened, knowing why would have taken all the magic from the experience. The sun sank lower on the horizon as she stopped and watched its final decent. Once it had completely disappeared from view she lay down on the soft sand.

"What are you doing?"

"Watching the stars, gonna join me?"

"Daft bloody ape, there are no stars." Despite his protest he laid himself down beside her on the ground.

"I know that, but see. There!" she pointed to the sky as the first star became visible. "There's another." When she lowered her hand she let him entwine his fingers with hers. Knowing nothing in the universe could ever match the moments she had with him like this.
