Chapter 1- Moon and Sky:


私- Once there was a girl with snow white hair and millions of freckles dotted on her porcelain skin. People loved the girl with white snow hair, they used to say her smile would light up the night. She was soft and shy and didn't speak much but she had sparks in her eyes and every night while the house was asleep she'd climb up on her roof to take a peek at the stars that glistened harshly against the cold looking night sky. No one knew but the girl was having trouble at home. Her bright smile held everything inside and the roof where everything was calm was her get away. She wished and hoped- She dreamed of flying away to that silk sheet in the sky.


A friend she had that stood out from the rest, was a boy with pitch black hair. The boy with pitch black hair was ignored- For he was the shadow of the girl with the bright smile but he didn't mind, He loved making her shine just a little bit brighter. He'd sneak away from his home and join the girl up on the roof. He too wished he could join the stars and even if the boy thought he wasn't much while staring up at that endless sky, the girl thought him everything. For the girl thought- Without the boy, she was a little less bright. Almost transparent. The boy was support and the girl the building but the boy thought she was even better. 


He thought of her the spark in his black abyss. Without her, he'd look plain and be unnoticed. The boy with black hair and the girl with white were sat on the roof one night, gazing at the stars that looked oh so bright against the night. The boy turned to the girl with a question on his mind, He said: "Wouldn't you like to fly?" The girl's response was without any stutter. "Of course I'd like to fly."The boy tilted his head in question, his black hair falling on his face. "What's keeping you back?" He asked. "Well, if I get up and fly what will you do? You'd be alone." The boy smiled "I'd fly with you If you wouldn't mind."


"But..." Stammered the girl twiddling her thumbs "I am so bright and you so dark, wouldn't you cease to be seen against those beautiful silk sheets of the sky?" The boy laughed "I do not mind, for the darker the background the more you shine."


The girl needed no more convincing, She grabbed his hand and they lifted off. Soaring into the night sky with smiles adorning their faces. When they opened their eyes she was a bright big moon and he the background, her freckles had disbanded from her face into twinkling stars. She frowned crying out "I can't be the moon! I can't. How will I be able to give light to those all night!? I wanted to be a star." She cried, commits shooting from her eyes. 


"It'll be alright cause you see, you are a star. You are the moon. Bright and marvelous. Do not worry about the shine because I will stay by your side each night and support your light with my dark. I will not sway and be blown away by the blue sky and it's cotton clouds cause you're the shine that makes my life." His silky voice soothed the teary-eyed moon. A bright grin stretched on her face "And I will light up your dark with my stars to make you the enchanting man I know you to be, my stars and I will never get carried away from your dark. I will remain in the sky even as the sun blocks me. Do not be fooled my love because I will never disappear."
