A short story

a fire in the night

A/N: I didn't name one of the characters lol if someone can think of something please tell me!

Lyryae felt someone shaking her and say

"Wake up love"

in the middle of a beautiful dream that she couldn't though remember the moment she opened her eyes

She grunted being that she doesn't usually like getting woken up in the middle of the night (but I mean... who does?)

This apparently amused the person who was annoying her and made them laugh

"Come on Lyryae wake up"

That had to be her boyfriend, so the anger softened a little because she really loved the man. She could do anything for her boyfriend and he could do anything for her. It was a deeper connection. They cared for each other and trusted each other and they didn't need anything else

"What is it?" She said with a hint of i-love-you-but-i-want-to-punch-you in her voice

"I have a surprise for you"

"Darling it's 2 in the morning I reckon it can wait till a decent hour" While finally sitting up

"No it can't, hey... Don't you trust me?" That man knew her well, that was sort of a weakness of hers so she found herself huffing and saying

"... Yeah"

"Oh how much I love you"

"Oh you sure do" Still not having completely forgiven him

"You adorable bastard say you love me too" He said laughing a little shocked

"... I love you too"

"That makes me the happiest and luckiest man alive" That made it for her, he made her blush and he noticed it... And boy did he like that. He immediately smirked and added

"Come on, you can get changed and then we'll take off"

10 minutes later she was ready. Even if it was night and it was dark she wanted to look good not to impress him, but because she wanted to at least look good if someone found them on the street after a car had hit them

She put on her dr martens, a white Beatles t-shirt tucked in a checkered green skirt and a short leather jacket and she did her makeup with some eyeliner and mascara

She found him smoking on the poarch and he looked really hot, he knew she liked that style so he put on a white shirt under a light orange jumper, his snickers and some jeans

"You- you look lovely dear" He stuttered

"You too but... You shouldn't have dressed up like that just because I like it"

"You know it's actually starting to grow on me"

They laughed and he took her by the hand leading her God knows where

After a while of wandering without an apparent place to go to she asked

"Darling where are we going?"

"Just a bit of patience Lyryae... Here we are!"

She immediately gasped and she felt like the luckiest girl on earth because her boyfriend knew how to make her happy. They were in front of a night-time antique fair, one of the places she loved the most. They had thousands of vinyls, posters and just vintage things and she could always find something that already had a story and add a beautiful memory to it, especially since she had started going with her boyfriend
