It was another quiet night at the hostel. Nico and Karolina were in the latter's room. They were cuddled up in bed, sharing secrets and laughter, when Karolina started talking about her love for glitter.

"You know, Nico," Karolina said with a huge smile on her face, attracting Nico's attention. "I really love glitter. It makes me feel full of magic and life. I love how it sparkles and how I can spread it all over the place. It's like I'm bringing a little bit of joy and light wherever I go.

Nico looked at her fondly, admiring the passion and excitement in Karolina's eyes. Although she herself was not as fanatical about glitter as Karolina, she understood how important it was to her; maybe that's why she had fallen in love with it; they were complete opposites.

"Karolina," Nico called to her softly, gently stroking Karolina's arm. "I couldn't help but notice how you look when you use your powers. It's as if you are surrounded by an aura of beauty and power. I love how your eyes sparkle with that special light and how your hair moves gracefully when you channel your energy. You really are beautiful; whether you use your powers or not, you really are like a princess.

Karolina smiled shyly. Never before had anyone expressed to her in that way how special she was to her when she used her powers; she even came to think she was too strange until... until they found out everything, but still, no one else changed her appearance so much when she used her powers.

"You're amazing, and I'm grateful to have you by my side," Karolina said.

Both girls hugged each other tenderly.

Suddenly, out of nowhere, a flash of bright light enveloped the room, illuminating their faces with a warm, magical glow. They both looked at each other in awe, unable to believe what they were witnessing.

Suddenly, a dimensional portal opened in front of them. Nico approached carefully, gripping the staff firmly, sensing no danger. She conjured a spell to reveal if there were any enemies or anything that could harm them.

The spell revealed that the portal was safe. Nico and Karolina held hands and crossed the threshold.

The place was a beautiful field, as the two had once dreamed of. They began to explore it; it really was a safe place; perhaps they had found their special place.

Sometimes they would snuggle in the grass, sharing secrets and laughter under the glow of the stars.

That field became their refuge, a place where they could be free and authentic. They spent hours exploring together, enjoying each other's company, and creating unforgettable memories. Ultimately, it would be their secret; no one else would know about it, even though they didn't know how they had found it or if anyone had sent it to them.

What they liked the most were the nights when glitter fell from the sky; they were not stars, but the field ended up shining, and they started dancing.
