They had been living on the farm for two weeks, and today Luna was woken up by how cold it had gotten in the room she shared with Claudia. Then she noticed she was alone and she guessed Claudia was across the hall with Yusuf. The two had gotten quite close and now seemed to be inseparable. She got up and poked around the fireplace, but had no clue how to get it roaring like Connor did. She slid into her moccasins and shuffled into the hallway, noticing Connor's door was ajar and his light was on. She tapped lightly on his door and soon heard him saying to come in. She pushed the door slightly as she took a step into his room.

"Connor, hey I could use your help." He slid on his shirt and turned to see her standing there, long sleeve t-shirt, shorts and silver moccasins on. He noticed she was shivering and walked over to her.

"What's wrong?"

"The fire in my room went out, and I just have no clue on how you get it going so hot so fast." He smiled as he motioned for her to lead the way. She made her way to her room and soon he was squatting down in front of the fireplace placing logs in.

"Where is Claudia?" He had feared the small woman had gone down to get more firewood, but Luna's answer shocked him even more.

"I suppose she spent last night with Yusuf."

"Is that something she does often?" He now was reaching for the matches as he glanced up at Luna, admiring her smile.

"No, this would be the first night she spent the whole night there, but she does stay up late with him, talking she says."

"You do not believe her?" Luna chuckled as he tried getting the embers to catch the rest of the wood on fire.

"Woman's intuition. I see the look in her eyes when she gets back, there is more than just talking going on, but if he makes her happy, more power to her."

Connor stood up and Luna took a step towards the fireplace, standing in front of it. She smiled as she felt the first of the warmth hitting her skin. Connor stood close, and Luna was partially blocking him from leaving as she warmed herself by the fire. She looked up at Connor, the fire dancing in his eyes as he looked at her. There had been growing tension between these two for the past week and she felt like she wanted to just kiss him right now, but a sound in the hallway knocked that thought away from her. She moved and Connor made his way towards the door as Claudia came into view. Her face flushed when she realized Luna and Connor were both there.

"Do you want me to leave you two alone?" Claudia teased from the doorway and Connor looked back at Luna in a panic, his cheeks turning red.

"No, Connor just came in to get the fireplace going again. Where have you been young lady?" Connor wanted to question Luna for asking Claudia, but soon realized she was just trying to tease the girl. Claudia stood there, cheeks on fire as she stammered about.

"Well, um, I was, well it was, I was cold."

"Oh Claudia, really now. You were with Yusuf."

"I fell asleep, there was nothing else." Claudia rushed to say, but Luna laughed as she shook her head.

"Why the hell not? Things are different now, we don't look down on people or things like that. Besides, he seems to really care about you." Connor looked at Luna now, wondering how it would feel to have her next to him when he slept. He excused himself and headed downstairs to get some fresh air, hopefully that would help cool his thoughts off. Luna and Claudia chatted a bit about Yusuf before Luna left to shower. Soon Luna was downstairs and breakfast got started, Connor being her usual helper. Today Luna had found a speaker and hooked her phone up to it, playing music as she cooked. Connor wasn't sure he was fond of this music, but he did like to watch Luna as she danced around the kitchen. She started singing and he listened to the words, wondering if all music was so emotional. She then took the wooden spoon from the drawer and turned to face Connor, singing into the spoon as the next song started playing.

"B-B-B-Be careful making wishes in the dark, dark
Can't be sure when they've hit their mark
And besides in the mean, mean time
I'm just dreaming of tearing you apart

I'm in the de-details with the devil
So now the world can never get me on my level
I just gotta get you off the cage
I'm a young lover's rage
Gonna need a spark to ignite

My songs know what you did in the dark"

Soon Carlo was downstairs singing and dancing away with Luna and everyone else soon joined in, Yusuf and Claudia dancing away as the rest were clapping their hands. Once the song was over, Carlo and Luna were laughing and he asked why she didn't have her favorite music on.

"Well I decided to start them off easy, I wouldn't want to scare them with my music." She finished cooking breakfast and Carlo made everyone's day.

"Today I think we are just going to take it easy, clean up around here, make a list of supplies we need and then maybe we can go into town and stock up on the things we need. That will give us a nice trial run to see how you guys can handle being around modern technology."

Soon they had all eaten and had the cabin looking pretty spiffy. Luna had sat down making a long list of things they needed to pick up. She then spoke up asking anyone if they had any request or clothes needs.

"Alright, do you guys need any socks, underwear, deodorant, those types of things." The guys started looking to each other and Luna just tilted her head to look at them. "Seriously no one needs anything? Well I'll pick up a few things just so we have them." She made a few notes on her list and soon had three list before starting a fourth.

"So, guys what about hunting gear, do we need anything there?" Carlo answered her first

"Put long lighters, and fire starters on the list. And we could use some wood pellets, that way we could use the furnace and not rely on the fireplaces for all our heat. Those hand warmer packets would be nice too. "

"How about hats and gloves, do you guys think you need those to go out hunting?" She asked and Connor spoke up now.

"Yes, as long as they do not hinder our sight or hands."

"I can do that, beanies and finger less gloves." Soon she had a full list of things and everyone except Yusuf and Ezio packed up in the van. They volunteered to stay and keep an eye on the cabin, and Luna was sure Ezio wanted to talk to Yusuf about his and Claudia's budding romance. Once they got into town they headed to a huge warehouse store and they split up the list. Carlo and Connor went to one side of the store and Luna asked Edward to help her and Claudia with any heavy items. Edward listened as the two girls chatted about Yusuf and what to buy, and he immediately wished he was with Carlo and Connor. He tuned out the girls, looking around at some of the other things in the isles. Soon he heard his name and turned around to see Luna standing there, trying to pull a huge bag of wood pellets out so she could load it up. He ran over and grabbed the bag, helping her load it onto the flatbed cart. She looked at him with an evil smirk telling him she wanted another one. He grabbed it, hauling it onto the cart and he looked at her.

"Don't try to do that on your own, I am here to help."

"Then stop day dreaming and pay attention. I promise we will stop it with the girl talk." He smiled as he followed them, pushing the flatbed cart along. Soon they had it loaded up as well as another cart. They met up with Carlo and Connor before Luna went over her list, making sure they didn't miss anything. They all headed back to the cabin and in the car Luna treated them all to more of her signing as she turned the radio up. The long drive seemed to go faster as they listened to the music, asking about some of the more taboo lyrics. Soon they were all inside leading up the items into the cabin and Carlo and Claudia started dinner. Edward, Ezio and Yusuf played cards as Luna sat in the library reading as she listened to music. Connor stood in the doorway watching her for a long time. She never noticed him standing there as she stopped reading and turned up the music a bit on her phone, singing along to the new song.

"And all the roads we have to walk are winding
And all the lights that lead us there are blinding
There are many things that I would
Like to say to you
But I don't know how

Because maybe
You're gonna be the one that saves me"

She saw him move out the corner of her eye and stopped, sliding down into the seat and lifting the book up to hide her deep blushing cheeks. She then tossed the book aside and jumped up, sliding into her shoes before walking towards the door, her eyes only meeting his for a moment. She grabbed a jacket on the way out, not caring if it was Ezio's. She slid it on and stepped into the cold air, walking down the path leading to the damaged cabin. Connor grabbed his jacket and followed her out, walking silently behind her a few feet before ascending into the trees. She got to the door of the other cabin and tried it, surprised it opened. She took a step inside, looking over the damage. She watched where she stepped, testing the floorboards before putting her full weight on them. She was sure Connor had followed her, but didn't know if he would follow her in or not. She moved through the dark, making her way to the small room to the left. She heard boards creaking and was sure Connor was on the porch, but soon she realized it was coming from below her and she moved just in time, falling into the small room as the floor where she had been standing disappeared into darkness.

"HELP" she called out, causing birds to fly around the ceiling. She looked around and saw no other way out. She pulled back away from the hole and started moving around the room in a panic.

"Luna, are you alright?" She felt a little relief hearing his voice, but shouted back quickly.

"Yes, but be careful, the floor gave away and now I'm stuck." She moved towards the door, but he wasn't anywhere to be seen.

"Where are you, I cannot see you." Luna pulled her trusty cell phone from her pocket flipping on the flashlight app so that they could see each other. He spotted her and spoke to her, yet she still couldn't figure out where he was. "Stay calm, I am on my way to get you."

"How? The floor is gone." Her voice was straining, drenched in evidence of her distress.

"Trust me. I will get you out of there." She heard him move around and backed further into the room, panic setting in again.
