POV-- Raven

I wake up and I'm back in the cemetery, in front of the old, faded gravestone. I lay on my back looking up at the stars, breathing quietly. I sit up, now realizing my body feels tired and heavy like I've been running for a long time. I look around, I'm by myself sitting among the mist.

I turn back and stare at the old gravestone, it's faded, and familiar. It feels almost like I know who's grave it is. I lay back down, my body relaxing as I feel the grass and dirt under me. I star up at the moon; the quiet, watchful moon.

"So beautiful," I say aloud. A voice speaks from beside me, a deeper voice.

"Yes.." The voice said, I look over to see him staring right at me. He continues to look at me and I smile at him. "Hi," I hear myself say quietly. I moved to lay on my side to look at him. He smiled at me and reached over, stroking my cheek with his hand. Moving his body to lay on his side as well. I sigh as he strokes my cheek, and think to myself how I wish we could live in this moment forever.

It feels almost unreal, being here with him. I'd never thought I'd see him again, but here we are. The moment is almost magical, considering the circumstances.

I put my hand on his when he stops to rest on my cheek, he intertwined his fingers with mine. My heart raced, his fingers were soft, and I loved the feeling. I closed my eyes, and I felt a warm kiss on my forehead. He rested his lips against my forehead, his fingers still intertwined with mine resting on my cheek. I can feel him close to me, I hear his heart beating. It makes me breathless, excited and nervous all at the same time. I felt his fingers remove them from mine, I brought my hand down to the ground resting it by my chest. I felt his hand trace my hairline, resting his hand on my neck just behind my ear. My entire body tingled, making a small shiver run up my spine, and I smiled. I opened my eyes and looked up at his gorgeous eyes. He was smiling at me, and he moved to lay on his back once again.

Laying on my back once again, I look up at the stars. They shone down on us in silent beauty. The blackness surrounded us like a blanket, the moon shining down to highlight us like a spotlight on a opera stage.

Among the beauty of the scenery, something changes. It feels like a century has passed, my body feeling more exhausted than ever. I look over at him, and see that he is just staring at me. His eyes are so beautiful, his face so handsome, I don't want to leave.....wait, where am I going?

I see a tear run down his face, and we hear shouting of all different voices and I panic. I feel scared, my hands shake, and I start to cry. Please no, not now, please....

I reach for him, as he reaches out to stroke my cheek. I feel weightless, and my vision gets blurry. The shouting seems closer, like they're yelling in my ear. What's happening, I don't know what is happening.

I see his hand, but I don't feel his hand. Why can't I feel his hand....then suddenly everything stops. I begin to close my eyes and the last thing I see is him. He leans forward in a rush.

"Please, Don't leave me.." I hear him whisper, and he leans in to kiss me....
