Elijah's POV:

"I'm going to take a walk NONE OF YOU come after me" I yell before exiting the house and closing the door behind me. I put my headphones in before I put my navy hoodie on.

The first song on my list is 'I hear a symphony by Cody Fry'. I start walking while admiring the angelic night sky. The alluring crescent glows bolder than the sun. The magical moonlight shines delicately complimenting the earth. The soft melody of the music pleasuring my ear.  I want to experience this bliss forever.

It doesn't last long before I hear crying over 'Fly me to the moon by The macarons project'.

My eyes meet gorgeous blue eyes. Glasses hanging on her nose. Soft honey blonde hair falling to her hips. Her lips in a slight pout and her chubby cheeks have tears falling. Her grey sweatpants stuck to her thighs. The light pink tanktop looked simple but cute.

She changes her gaze to the ice cream in her hands

She changes her gaze to the ice cream in her hands. She starts licking it while crying. The glasses fall slightly and she put them back up still crying.

uh... is she okay?

I don't think so.

Are you dumb?

OF COURSE, SHE ISN'T OK!

I take my hood down before deciding to continue walking. Before I move I hear the princess-like lady talk. "Oh my god! Your eyes!" I look at the ground embarrassed to be made fun of by an angel so beautiful.

"They're the beautifulest thing on this earth! Wait... Is beautifulest a word?  Anyways, My name is Aurora Brown" She shakes my hand. With wide eyes and a big smile that scares me A LOT!

"I'm Elijah and Thank you" I smile at her feeling a lot better. I think that she's the first girl that compliments my eyes. She sits back on the bench patting the empty spot beside her. I hesitate before sitting down next to her.

I stare at her features not being able to look away. She seems so nice and innocent, but so bold and beautiful at the same time.

"Do you want ice cream?" I shake my head.

"Don't move I'm coming back" I get kind of scared not wanting to trust a stranger, but she could be my friend. I don't have many friends I actually don't have any at all.

She comes back with a brighter smile holding ice cream. she hands it to me and I take it from her hand.

"This could be poisoned or drugged" I state

"Well it's not"

"What if it is?"

"I said it's not!" she stomps her foot.

"Don't act like a child Aurora"

"Don't act smart Elijah"

Aurora's POV:

"Dad, I'm going to take a walk. Tell mom to make dinner without me please" Dad nods his head with a fake smile.

Mom and dad are the best at hiding their feelings ever since my brother Dylan died. Dylan and I were the closest out of my three brothers Elias, Aidan, and Dylan. Dylan and I would do everything together we were inseparable until he died.

Yesterday was the day my brother died in a car accident.

Usually, I just sit to watch his photos and videos before visiting his grave. Today I feel like taking a walk outside. Admiring the beautiful things left on the earth.

My family is very rich we own a lot of hotels all over Paris. Although my parents being busy they are the most loving, supportive, and best parents ever. My brother Elias is a little overprotective, but I don't blame him.

He always blamed himself for what happened to Dylan that night. Elias was supposed to go with Dylan to the movies but instead, he stayed at home.  Dylan wasn't paying attention to the car in front of him which caused the accident.  

I moved in and accepted that he's gone, but that doesn't mean that it doesn't hurt a lot. I lost my brother and my friend at the same time.

While eating my ice cream I cry a little. I remember my memories with Dylan of how we would prank everyone in the house.

My parents would always get mad, but Elias enjoyed us. After Dylan passed Elias became strict, mature, and BORING.

I miss those days everything was simple. Aidan was only a baby when the incident happened. Aidan is the youngest brother he's only 14.

A guy takes his hood down before looking at me. The only source of light is the street light next to the bench I'm sitting on. His hair is slightly messy. He has a sharp jaw, full lips, and GREEN AND HAZEL EYES!

I run to him scaring him a little but oh well. I compliment his gorgeous eyes before introducing myself.

"I'm Elijah and Thank you" He gives me a small smile. I sit back on the bench patting the empty spot beside me.  He takes a seat beside me looking at the ground.

I hate how I always talk to strangers.

"Do you want ice cream?" He shakes his head. I wasn't going to listen to him anyways.

"Don't move I'm coming back" I run back to my house hoping he isn't going to leave. I quite like him he'll hopefully be my friend. I go to the freezer to get cookies and cream ice cream.

I come back with a friendlier smile holding his ice cream. I give it to him before he hesitantly takes it.

"This could be poisoned or drugged"

"Well, it's not" We argue for a while.

"How old are you?" he asks.

"19, you?"

"I'm 19 too"

" What do you study?" He asks.

"I study interior design"

"I study art and design" He smiles before both of us zone out looking at the perfect heaven above us.
