She wrinkled her nose with a laugh. "Van! You're supposed to be watching the sky, not me!"
He propped himself up on an elbow, smiling slightly down at where she lay in the tall, gently swaying grass as she continued to ramble.

He cut her off effectively, lips claiming hers. Van wasn't much interested in what her professor had to say. After endless moments of bliss he pulled back to breath. Hitomi gave a soft gasp, her eyes widening as she stared up at the sky.
"Oh Van, look!" she whispered breathely, pointing up. "Isn't it beautiful?"
Van nodded, unable to look away from her awe struck face. He didn't need to. He could see the millions of shooting stars reflected in her luminous emerald eyes.
