She sat there in her room, gazing out from her window. Watching the stars as they twinkled amongst the jet black night sky. Listening to the sound of her clock tick and tock.

"Look bell'"
She spoke in a soft tone to her snowy white cat.
"Aren't the stars pretty tonight?"
As she asked the question her vision remained on the sky littered with stars and her cat, bell, got up into a sitting position, slowly turning to look out of the glass panels.
"Yeooww"
Bell spoke quietly in an agreeable tone and the woman let out a soft nose chuckle.

A shooting star flashed across the sky, making both of their eyes light up for an instant.

"Did you wish for anything belly?"
Bell patted her fluffy white paws on the royal purple rug, earning the attention from her friend, before jumping up onto the woman's lap. Purring gently and curling up, still watching outside. A small smile formed onto her face and she stroked the cat in long motions, returning her view outside once again.
"I wished that I could keep what we have now, keep it until we both move on from this world."

And with that said. Bother of their eyes started to close slowly. Drifting off into a deep slumber.
