Yay! Second chapter, you may have to wait awhile for the third, I've got lots and lots of homework, thanks for the reviews let keep 'em coming ;)

The Village

I could feel Haru chest rise and fall against my head, its steady rhythm was so comforting, his body was so warm. How long had we sat like this on the floor of the tent? I closed my eyes and listened for the sound of thunder or rain but the world around us was perfectly still apart from Haru quiet intake of breathe. We could leave right now, forget the rave and just stay like this…but then what kind of heroes would that make us? But why ?why was this burden placed on Haru, he didn't deserve it, he's so kind, and caring, why does he always get hurt…but then I know the answer to that question, its because of me.

"Elie? Are you awake?"

Haru shifted under me I turned to look up at his smiling face, his silver hair falling into his violet eyes.

"Guess we fell to sleep" he laughed, but he didn't let go of me

"Yea" I laughed in return

"Are you ok" Haru asked seriously

"Yea the lightning has stopped I'll be fine, sorry about making you stay with me, I'm sure your hungry now."

"Not as hungry as you are, and hey you know I don't mind staying with you, I wouldn't have it any other way"

Elie blushed at his statement

"I wouldn't have it anyway either"

"Well aren't you the lovely couple, seems I should have stayed away longer" came a voice behind them. Haru and Elie turned to see Musica, still dry and apparently no worse for ware after the storm with a huge grin on his sly face. Haru and Elie scrambled off each other

"So whats your excuse 'conserving body heat' during the storm" laughed Musica.

A bright red blush crept onto Elie face and she grabbed her tofu blaster, and very unlike Elie shot one very accurate blast, luckily Musica had seen this violent reaction coming and already had a shield in place.

"So where's dinner?" he asked after the smoke cleared

"Probably as destroyed as you would have been, had you not made a shield" laughed Haru

"What! I'm gone for three hours and you don't even manage some food"

'Three hours, we where sitting together for three hour' thought Elie to herself.

"You guys are hopeless! I suppose I will have to fix our problem seeing as though I am obviously the most mature person in this tent." sulked a very disgruntled Musica

"If you can find a way to create food out of thin air you can have the rave" laughed Haru "but I doubt it."

"Well it just so happens that on my little excursions I saw a small village in the distance, and I don't know about you but I'm hungry so village takeaway doesn't seem like such a bad idea. If we leave now we should get there by morning."

"EIIII LETS GO!" shrieked Haru, the thought of real food was to much for his stomach for a proper reply.

Elie had been standing quietly, in the corner of the tent after her initial outburst, the thought of going outside wasn't one that really appealed to her, but apparently the weather had cleared up, so maybe it wouldn't be as bad as she thought.

'Put on a good face, were all starving I cant be a baby! Its only electricity nothing more. And I'll be with Haru and Musica.'

"Hey Elie are you coming" asked Haru

"Yea lets go, captain Elie is ready"

'Sure hide it with humour, it can't be that bad, just stay close to Haru, he doesn't need to suffer more because of mine pathetic phobias."

Elie smiled and began at a light jog out of the tent; the air still held droplets of water and the leaves passed the clearings still glistened in the moonlight with newly fallen rain.

'See this isn't so bad!'

"Hey Elie wait up," called Haru from behind her "you don't want to walk to this village alone do you."

Elie slowed down until Haru caught up with her.

"Thanks" she said quietly so Musica didn't hear

"For what?" Asked Haru scratching his head in confusion

"For staying with me and making me feel wanted" replied Elie gently

Haru looked down at her, his eyes partly hidden by his hair.

"Elie, don't worry about it, there is no need to apologise you know that, and anyway I would be alone if it wasn't for you."

"You have Musica"

"True, but I probably wouldn't have met Musica if it wasn't for you, and if I had I probably would have fought him (and won.)"

Elie thought to herself, yea she could see that happening, not that her temper was perfect either.

"Hey are you love birds planning on leaving me alone back here" came an irritated cry from behind Haru and Elie

Haru and Elie both turned to musica who was quickly catching up with them.

"Well if you just hurried up you wouldn't be alone, I don't want to have to stay out here longer than is necessary" replied Elie with a slight hitch in her breath after she realised what she had blurted out.

"Why?" They both asked confused

"It's just" (Elie scanned her mind for an excuse, finding none...) she sighed "I just don't want to get caught in another storm."

"You can stay at the tent (both musica and Haru knew storms meant lightning)"

"No! I need to help you guys, its not like you could make it to this village without killing each other if I wasn't here."

"Well if you're sure…" came Harus reply

"Cause I'm sure"

And so the hike to the village began.
