With a night full of noises, one sound stood out among the rest.

Crickets chirping somewhere in the grass. Beneath their feet. Bloom took Flora's hand.

The grass dewy-wet between their toes.

With a night full of noises, one sound stood out among the rest.

A light drizzle battering the trees. A soft pitter-patter against the leaves. Bloom had never seen Flora look so happy.

So at home.

With a night full of noises, one sound stood out among the rest.

The woodland owl hooting out night-song. Mystifying and enticing and eerie at once. Flora leaned in closer.

A romantic sort of fear if Bloom may say.

With a night full of noises, one sound stood out among the rest.

The rush of a nearby stream. Gurgling, bubbling. Rain pushing it faster. Bloom looked to Flora.

A midnight swim really couldn't hurt.

With a night full of noises, one sound stood out among the rest.

"Tell me, what do you hear?" Asked Flora. Her voice another to the night-time choir

Smiled Bloom really wide, "shhh…listen harder, 'tis the sound of me falling in love with you, dear."

With a night full of noises, one sound stood out among the rest.
