The Tale of Fear

Chapter 7

(sorry for taking so long but wow have i got a story to keep telling)

Now the moonlight and the fireflies are the only source of light. "What are you doing?" whispered Bain, not wanting the animals to know they were there. "Shhhh, just watch" said Neith, knowing exactly what she was doing when she blew out the lantern. She quietly went back to the middle of the opening and slowly layed on the grass pulling Bain with her and making him lay down. "Look" she whispered. Bain, confused, looked up and saw the second most beautiful thing in the world, a meteor shower. "I forgot all about it, I was going to stay and watch tonight" Neith said, "how could you forget this" said Bain still staring up at the sky smiling huge. After a minute of silence Bain turned to look at Neith, her face shone in the light of the moon while the stars splatter across her eyes. Her hair had fallen out and wrapped around her face a strand on her cheek, that was a soft pink color compared to her usual pale complexion. Bain reached out and moved the hair out of Neiths face making the pink in her cheeks turn to a red. "What's wrong?" Bain asked wondering why Neith looked flustered all of a sudden, "oh nothing it's just...the view is extraordinary" she says, still looking at the sky. "Yes, extraordinarily beautiful" he said, not taking his eyes off Neith. She realized he wasn't looking at the sky and was now as bright as a tomato. 'Why, why is he so smooth why does he make me feel like this ahhhhhhhh he.......oh my he knows what he is doing to me and I don't hate it it's kind of nice,' Neith thought staring back at the night air with a small smile. "You know this is probably the second, maybe third most beautiful sight I've seen," Bain said now looking at the sky "Wha- what could be more beautiful than this," she said looking at him confused while gesturing to the sky. "You" he said looking at her eyes full of love and a little shyness. This was her breaking point. Neith couldn't handle it anymore. It was just too cute. She pulled her hands to her face and covered not wanting him to see the blood red she had turned. "What, what's wrong?" Bain said, confused, thinking Neith was crying. "What do you mean what's wrong I was just uh closing my eyes to think for a moment," she said, trying to cover up the fact that she was very flustered. "Oh ok as long as you're alright" Bain said now calm and happy. They both layed back down and just enjoyed the atmosphere. After a long while of contemplating Neith decided she would build the courage to flirt back with Bain. Then she chickened out again, as she was about to make a reach for his hand Bain interrupted Neith by saying "do you see that constellation over there, it's said that the very top star was the first ever star to shine across the sky" while pointing at the constellation "oh really... that's different from what i know," said Neith excited about the fact they were talking about astronomy. "What no way i'm totally right," he said teasingly "No really it's said that the stars already existed they were just too far away and dim to see so a long time ago certain beings called Gods," Bain sat watched the gears behind Neith's eyes turn as she talked about something she was so passionate about. "Well they were they were the Gods and Goddesses but they thought that there world was too dim and the light of day wasn't enough so they "made" the stars and constellations say are either fallen heroes or simply there works of art they wanted the mortals and the mortals offspring to see and remember them by." She said finishing her story beaming with her love of astronomy. Bain sat there smirking at her loving how much they have grown on eachother in the time they have spent together like they've known each other their whole lives.
